Gastro-Intestinal Cleansing
Purify your entire digestive system & get rid of accumulated toxins
The human body starts to accumulate
toxins from the moment we are born. If the level of
toxins increases to a dangerous level we are more prone
to sickness. The accumulated toxins in the body can
be eliminated by partaking in fasting and gastro intestinal
cleansing.
The second week program can save the body from many disorders such as gastritis, asthma, constipation, lethargy, indigestion and lack of appetite. After this cleansing process the body feels light, internally clean and benefits from a well functioning digestive system. Sadhana Yoga has been offering this course from its very beginning. More than a thousand people from all over the world have benefited from partaking in this program, which can be completed in 1 to 6 days.
Program options:
| 1 | Supplementing evening meal with 2 apples and the next morning flushing the entire digestive tract. |
| 2 | One day fasting supplementing each meal with 2 apples and the next morning flushing the entire digestive tract. |
| 3 | Two
days of fasting 1st day- six apples 2nd day – three apples 3rd day- flushing |
| 4 | Three days of fasting 1st day- six apples 2nd day – three apples 3rd day- three glasses of juice 4th day- flushing |
After flushing a special diet has been designed for between 1 and 3 days afterwards (depending on time available and individual response to the treatment).
SHANKHA PRAKSHALANA
Before
a worshiping session, Hindus awaken the Gods by blowing
into a horn called the conch. Conch shells have the
form of a multiple spiral arising from one point and
opening out into ever-widening spheres. It symbolizes
the origin of existence.
In order to obtain a clear sound, water is poured from the entrance of the conch shell and runs freely to the exit so that all impurities are eliminated. This cleaning and washing process is called Shankhaprakshalana.
This process caught the attention of a yogi who made a link between the conch and the human digestive system. If the conch can be purified by water, why not the human body?
From this tradition arose the gastro-intestinal cleansing concept. Nowadays, Shankhaprakshalana is not only applied to the conch but also to the human body; it has become a gentle method of evacuating and cleansing the entire alimentary canal, from mouth to anus. It could be seen as a natural laxative which does not irritate your digestive track if the process if done properly. The purpose of Shankhaprakshalana is to eliminate the accumulation of toxic waste matter in the intestines, thereby purifying the digestive system and the whole body.
If you wish, we are able to combine this programme with our “10 Day Yoga Holiday” course or with the “Standard 6 Day” course on request. Another option is to start the Gastro-Intestinal Cleansing after completing the “3 Day Introductory Hatha Yoga” course. We are very flexible with this programme and can easily fit it into your schedule.
To attend this course you can join in on any day of the week after 4pm, whereby the following day you will start day one of the six day course and depart the morning after you have completed your 6th full day.
Course includes: Accommodation, dinner on the night of your arrival, clean water, breakfast, tea, lunch, snacks and dinner each day (except for those days when you will be Fasting). You will also be given breakfast on the day of your departure.
