Moinhos
Velhos
Holistic Health Retreat
Our aim is to provide a place for
physical, mental and spiritual
cleansing and renewal
.We
offer supervised Juice Fasting and detox programs with complementary
therapies to effectively renew and rejuvenate the whole body.
The special herbs will loosen the old toxic deposits
in the intestines and the powders (Bentonite and Psyllium
Husk) will absorb the toxins and effect the elimination of
the putrefied deposits in your system. The cleansing
is of the entire digestive system and will remove
the accumulated toxins.
From
the ten best Spas in the world The Sunday Times rated Moinhos
Velhos as the best Spa for Yoga. ( Lifestyle
Spa Special - Style 39, 2002 )
We have a safe and supportive
environment where you will wake up to the songs of the birds
in the morning and go to bed at night with the silence of
the stars. We are in a tranquil valley, away from the regular
tourist areas, and our staff will guide you and support you
through the cleansing process. We start every day with yoga
and meditation, and finish every day with meditation.
During
a fast, old emotions often come to the surface, and yoga -
with breathing exercise and meditation - can help

Just about everybody benefits from fasting. Even those who live a relatively healthy
life-style still have toxins. Due to old and often bad nutritional habits, environmental
pollutants, stresses and strains of life situations most of us suffer from toxic
deposits throughout the body. With the elimination of these toxins, remarkable
and sometimes incredible changes can and have occurred.
Fasting affects body, mind
and spirit
For
Body: Fasting provides a much-needed rest for the internal organs. The functions
of restores and normalizes glandular, metabolic and nervous-system functions;
speeding up the elimination of morbid accumulations, toxic wastes and dead cells;
accelerating new cell and tissue generation and enhancing cell-oxygenation.
For Mind: As the physical body detoxifies, rejuvenates and regenerates,
the mind begins to function more efficiently. During the fast, the digestive system
has a rest, freeing up energy for other things. This energy is used by the mind
- bringing mental clarity. Fasting develops mental will power and increased control
over the senses and mind.
For
Spirit: All the major religions practice fasting in some form or another.
Fasting allows the body and mind to become still, and in the stillness, one is
more likely to tune into the secrets of Life, and to connect with Spirit.

fast for greater physical and mental efficiency" - Plato |
