I really enjoyed reading that Emma, thank you. I probably wouldn't go on a juice retreat myself because I would definitely get grumpy about the lack of food, (I'm with you re: salted tomatoes and ready salted crisps) but am so drawn to your descriptions of the mountains, and the space, and the yoga, your friendship and the sunsets. Oh and the massages.
Perhaps, contrary to what our 'constant improvement' culture tells us, it doesn't matter whether or not we incorporate these habits into our daily lives when we return home from a holiday or retreat or training course (well, depends on the course), it's enough that we experienced them, and enjoyed them while we were away.
Oh I love retreats. To celebrate my 50th last year I treated myself to two, one in Gold Coast, Australia and the other on the Greek island of Paros. Now you've got me wanting to do a juice fast in Turkey šā¤ļø
Now Iām craving candy cigarettes and frazzles, will try and blitz myself a juice instead š
Haha theyāre the best!!!
Gosh I felt like I was there with you Emma! Wow what a glorious experience and youāve given me lots of wellness ideas... I wonder whether itās an all or nothing thing. I could have a ginger shot and my coffee? šāØš³š¤©
I think you just need to take which bits work for you, and let yourself have what you need to have! xx
I wanna go to juicy mountain!
Letās do it one day ā¤ļø
An awesome read and a great adventure that you have brought back to life!!
I need to go back. Thank you
