We are totally dedicated to YOUR health!
Join Jayney Goddard, President of The Complementary Medical Association and her colleagues on the most incredible retreat which is tailored specially to meet the needs of people at all levels of health and fitness. Jayney, herself, has beaten a severe life-threatening condition and has made it her life’s work to help people with their recovery too - even when it seems that there’s no hope. For this reason, Jayney has created this special retreat and this is why this retreat is unique. Everything on the retreat is tailored to the needs of each individual - so that there is the opportunity for deep healing, physically, mentally and emotionally.
We run these incredible retreats as we know that in order for people to fully benefit - and make the changes that they need to make - this must be done in a residential environment.
By being located in a beautiful place, where you're consuming the most optimally healthy foods and drinks, where you can get the right kind of exercise and essentially 'stepping outside' one's day-to-day environment, you'll stand the very best chance of getting these healthy changes to stick.
You'll learn to create new habits which will be health-supporting and will last long after you leave us.
Evidence, research and rationale for what we do:
Nutritional and Lifestyle Approach
On our retreats we exclusively follow a plant-based nutrition approach. There is a very sound reason for this. There have been many huge studies which demonstrate that a diet high in plant derived foods and drinks is the very best for all measures of health and well-being. People who follow plant-based diets live more healthily - for much longer. This is vitally important - although as a society we are in general living longer and our life span is increasing, we are becoming sicker at much younger ages - so one could say that our 'health-span' is decreasing! The very sad reality of this is that if we don't take affirmative action to safeguard our health and that of our loved ones, we are facing years and years of chronic ill health - no one wants that!
One of the largest studies to date is the Adventist Health Study (AHS) which had 96,000 people fill out complex 50 page health questionnaires and the data gathered from this original study (begun in 1960) and subsequent studies which are ongoing, showed tremendous health and longevity benefits. The reason that Seventh Day Adventists were studies is that they generally live healthy lifestyles, are predominantly vegan or vegetarian and tend not to drink or smoke. The studies are huge - and if you are interested in reading a very good synopsis you'll find it here
