Welcome back to the Prescribing Lifestyle podcast. Today, I'm excited to share my personal experiences from a recent retreat I attended at Hazeldene in the beautiful Yarra Valley, hosted by Julie Bristow of Regenerate Rejuvenate Health Retreats.

Key Points Covered:

1. Overview of the Retreat:
   • A detailed look at the fasting-focused retreat, including the types of juices provided and the schedule of activities like yoga and bushwalking.
   • The physical and mental benefits I observed, including the absence of hunger, sustained energy, and the production of ketones despite juice consumption.
2. Insights Gained:
   • Reflections on the importance of taking time out from daily life for self-reflection and health.
   • The benefits of breaking routine and how the retreat facilitated a deeper understanding of my own health and wellness needs.
3. Upcoming Retreats:
   • Exciting details about the next retreat I'm co-hosting with Julie Bristow, scheduled for November 22nd in Mansfield. I discuss what participants can expect and how to get involved.
4. The Power of Mindfulness:
   • Emphasizing the importance of incorporating mindfulness and relaxation into everyday life to combat the stresses of modern living.
   • Encouraging listeners to engage in practices that enhance their parasympathetic nervous system for better health and well-being.

There are quite a few people that have asked for the program, and we've got a few people booked already.

And we can't book that many because we like to have a small group with good connections, so please connect with me or Julie if you're interested in this Mansfield holistic wellness retreat.
