Day 8 of a 10 day water fast

As we are on day 8 of our 10 day October Fast, our hearts are full with reverence for the brave beings who have journeyed with us through this powerful rite of renewal.

From those who committed to five days, to the souls who walked the full ten-day path, each has leaned into the body’s innate wisdom, allowing the body’s  unraveling, the deep cleansing, the releasing. Detox symptoms have emerged not as discomforts to fear, but as signs that the body, when given the space, knows exactly how to heal.

For some, the path has been gentle … an awakening of energy, clarity, and lightness of being.

For others, especially those on the extended fast, the body has gone deeper. Parasites, plaque, even long-held intruders like worms have made their way out, cleared by the intelligence of a body finally free to cleanse. What a relief. What a remembering.

It never ceases to humble us how the body knows and heals when given the space to detox of all the chemicals, toxins, preservatives, additives … that we consume and breathe on a daily basis.

Each day, we’ve held space through vital checks, education circles, and the nurturing detox protocols that make a Wind Spirit fast not just a cleanse, but a healing mind, body and spirit experience. We walk beside each participant with presence and care, honouring the layers that fall away, and the essence that emerges.

This morning is day 8, and as we did our morning lymphatic movements a soft joy stirred in the air. There was light in the eyes, a quiet ease in the body. Trauma, held tight for years, was exhaled.

And now, from a much cleaner slate the true healing can happen.

How I love my work!!!!!

Here is a testimonial from one of the participants who did 5 days - 4 days water and one and a half days juice.

This place is magical. I have just completed a 5 day water and juice fast and cannot recommend it highly enough. Sharon and David are truly inspirational and nuture and care for you every step of the way. This is far and away the best retreat I have ever attended (and there have been a few). The retreats are small and intimate - grab a spot while you can
