South of France
A French Retreat
Provence
17 November - 21 November 2023
Attending a mindful eating and intermittent fasting (aka time-restricted eating) detox retreat in the south-west of France will enable you to get away from the hustle, bustle and never-ending demands of everyday life.
Allowing you to recharge your batteries, reconnect with nature, unwind and de-clutter your mind and increase your physical fitness.
Intermittent fasting and mindful eating are the current buzz words in the weight management world – it involves fasting for a specified period: 16, 18 of 20 hours, and eating during the hours of the day that remain: 8,6 or 4 hours.

- help you lose weight and keep it off forever
- extend your lifespan, helping you to live healthily for longer
