Fresh Start Healing - Healthy eating habits

When we started offering advanced whole-body detox retreats in 2005, we realized that people did not go away to a health retreat to just drink some “colourful juices,” deprive themselves of food (aka do detox) or sweat in a boot camp. Deep down, they were looking for solutions to their physical and emotional health needs, to acquire healthy habits and to gain resilience to deal with their day-to-day situations… Detox, raw food, exercise, spiritual fasting etc. were merely explored as means to getting more energy, losing weight and finding deeper inner peace. The issue we ran into was that the same approach and methods did not work for someone who wanted to simply get away for a quick recharge and for those who were suffering from digestive issues, cigarette addiction, obesity or were looking for how to stop an emotional eating roller-coaster. We also observed that each guest had an individual speed of healing, depending on a health condition type and stage, history of lifestyle habits and their current emotional state. No matter how well we fine-tuned the program, it was virtually impossible to find a one-for-all solution.

This is why we have created for you comprehensive and professionally guided specialized Areas of Focus, which allow us to meet your individual needs and that are proven to bring about tangible improvements in your specific health condition… provided you are realistic in your expectations and committed to your healing journey.  Whether you’d like to experience joint rejuvenation, calm your anxiety, overcome sugar addiction, or simply need a quick health reboot, there are great program options for you at Fresh Start. Based on many years of experience, we carefully picked and combined various program components and put them together into the most effective combinations and sequences, as well as designed an individualized and customized process that gradually assists you on a deep healing journey, while having the most enjoyable experience in relaxing family-like environment.

Fresh Start Healing - Mind Body & Soul

WHAT IS GO-DEEPER™?

GO-DEEPER™ is a customized and individualized part of your health program designed by the Fresh Start planner to support healing of the specific health areas you choose to work on during your Core Program while staying at the Fresh Start Retreat for 7, 14 or 21 days. GO-DEEPER™ consists of 3 main components: Professional Guidance, One-on-One Therapeutic and Detox Services and Custom Supplementation Formulas.

On the GO-DEEPER™, you will experience one-on-one work with Natural Health/ Emotional Wellness Specialists. The goal here is to enhance results with your unique health goals, be it working in-depth on weight loss, depression, quitting smoking, headaches or other health challenges. Your individualized health plan will be created from over 40 unique 1-on-1 health services and 30+ custom protocols for organ support, rebuilding, and advanced organ-specific cleanses. The plan will be carefully designed, based on a thorough before and upon-arrival assessment, using 18+ years of expertise guiding people through the individualized healing process.

Choose Your GO-DEEPER™ Focus

While all guests experience similar classes and meal structure on the Core Program, when it comes to the GO-DEEPER™, you can choose a specific area of focus during your stay. Here are three main areas you can choose from:

  1. PHYSICAL HEALTH: diseases of the digestive tract, hormonal issues, liver problems, back/shoulder/hip and other structural issues, lung concerns.
  2. EMOTIONAL WELLNESS: depression, anxiety, grief, childhood trauma, PTSD, caregiver burnout, redefining self-identity, relationship building.
  3. HABITS RE-PATTERNING™: quit smoking, mild social drinking, digital addiction, improving exercise and eating routine.

As you see, within each area, there can be a variety of health conditions or issues. We work with each guest individually on their specific situation, considering their main and additional concerns.

Note: Most Fresh Start guests have been looking to improve across all three areas, yet experience showed that it is impossible to address all problems at once. Health restoration is like a construction site: you cannot put the roof before the walls and foundation. While you may have a lot on the plate, there are typically one or a few areas that at the moment are either causing the most discomfort or need to be stabilized first, because due to those the body function is severely dysregulated, which affects your entire state. If we focus on those areas, we will be able to see overall health improvements faster and make the results more measurable and tangible.

How Do We Work with You: Why do GO DEEPER™ guests get above average results?

WHOLE PERSON APPROACH

Fresh Start Team works with a whole person, which means that it is not sufficient for us to know that you have a depression; we want to know what contributed to it and other symptoms that come with it. You may have heard that emotional issues hide in tissues. So we may be treating your back tension until we are blue in the face, just to realize that the main contributing factors are emotion-related. Or your back pain may simply be brought upon by a constipated and sluggish bowel pressing on the pelvic and spinal areas. And vice versa, physical pain may cause depression, which may be alleviated or completely disappear on its own once the inflammation is down.

INDIVIDUALIZED ONE-ON-ONE SERVICES AND CUSTOM HEALTH DRINKS PLAN

As you understand from the example above, the solution in each case will be very different and not what it may originally seem to be.  It is important that you are open to every aspect of healing (physical, emotional, habits and detox) and to deal with what’s underneath that dis-ease label, called Arthritis, Anxiety or Marijuana Abuse. After a professional health assessment and carefully studying your health profile and personal goals, you will be offered an individualized 1-on-1 treatment,  health drinks and supplements plan for your approval.

Professional Guidance
gradual and safe healing

GRADUAL HEALING AND PROFESSIONAL GUIDANCE

We will prioritize the areas or organs of focus depending on the severity. After this we will create a plan with an INITIAL THERAPEUTIC FOCUS, focusing on the worst areas, and will start peeling the layers of this onion. Once one or several main areas are stabilized, we may move to work on other areas/organs. Or we’ll work on the same area for the duration of the program if this is a major issue and needs more attention. NOTE: We cannot work with all areas at once, or your body (and you!) may get overwhelmed.

MULTIPLE HEALING METHODS, MULTIPLE THERAPISTS EXPERTISE and MULTI-FACETED HEALING STRUCTURE

The same condition may be triggered by contrastly different causes, and more commonly one condition is produced by multiple causes accumulatively. This is why the cause of the disease is considered unknown! Because it is rarely one thing. This is why we use MULTIPLE HEALING METHODS, MULTIPLE THERAPISTS’ EXPERTISE and MULTI-FACETED HEALING STRUCTURE. Since more than one thing caused your health problems, we cannot count that one thing will work for them!

COMMITMENT TO YOUR HEALING

Healing is a journey and we are committed to helping you on it. When you come to the Fresh Start program, there will be a very simple and clear process to follow. It is very important that you also commit to it and follow the guidance. You need to work on yourself to get well and be an active participant! It will largely predetermine the depth of your results. We are here to support you and adjust the protocols, and we do our best to meet everyone’s individual needs, but you need to show up, take your drinks, visit classes, work with practitioners, communicate – whether you have a good or a bad day. And, even more importantly, to have a realistic yet positive attitude, be open-minded and trust the process.

Remember that there are no quick fixes to long-term issues. Do not expect major quick turnarounds and let your body take its time to heal gradually.

WHOLE PERSON APPROACH

Fresh Start Team works with a whole person, which means that it is not sufficient for us to know that you, you only have a depression; we want to know what caused it an other symptoms that come with it.

And vice versa, physical pain may cause depression, which may be alleviated or completely disappear on its own once the inflammation is down.

IN FINDING THE CAUSE WE CREATE A PROTOCOL

As you understand from the example above, the solution in each case will be very different and not what you may originally thought it would be. It is important that you are open to every aspect of healing (physical, emotional, habits and detox) and to deal with what’s underneath that dis-ease label, called Arthritis, Anxiety or Marijuana Abuse.

Disclaimer: Though most Fresh Start guests get amazing results, we cannot guarantee recovery from any specific disease or symptom. The results are individual and depend on many factors, including program length, type of condition, its’ severity and the level of personal commitment to the process.

This testimonial is 30 min long. In addition to a personal story, it covers various aspects of program and its components. If you seriously consider coming, we suggest to watch it in detail, to understand how the Fresh Start healing process works. It’ll help you to receive the best results and experience while at the retreat.

Before your arrival, the Program Directors and Program Manager carefully study your health profile. Upon arrival, we will do an additional in-depth health assessment, consisting of the organ screen and live blood analysis. Based on these, the Program Manager or other experienced health professional will prepare for you a custom health plan for the first week of your stay. The plan will take into consideration the following:

  • your main health conditions and goals
  • additional areas of need
  • support of the overall wellbeing
  • safety, gradual healing and intensity of therapies
  • contraindications to therapies and supplements
  • ideal spacing and sequence of services for optimum results

As mentioned above, the plan will contain various health treatments and additional juices, drinks and supplements to support the organs or body systems that need more care.

Before each new week, you’ll have a brief meeting with the Program Manager or other planning specialist to confirm the next week’s plan.

Your Individual Health Plan will be individualized and customized to your primary area of focus and your personal program goals.

Out of 40+ one-on-one treatments available, we will pick those that meet your needs. Examples of services that may be included are various types of massages and bodywork, energywork sessions (ex. Reiki, Somatic Therapy, Craniosacral Therapy), counselling and life coaching sessions, colon hydrotherapy, foot baths, structural health treatments (focusing on back, shoulder, hip pain etc.) and others. Note: Not all therapies in the plan will be unique or different. There are essential staple treatments. For example, everyone’s plan will include massages, and most guests benefit from some emotional work and colon hydrotherapy, provided no contraindications and if they approve our recommendations.

The plan will also contain Custom Protocols – supplements customized to your needs ( f. ex., Adrenal or Thyroid Support, Sleep Enhancing, Anti-inflammatory, Nervous System Tonic, Pancreas Protocol, Advance Liver Cleanse etc.).

During your stay, the Program Director will assess your progress on a daily basis and make micro-adjustments to the process, when needed. Practitioners will also study your health profile and the Program Manager and Program Directors will communicate with them on a per-need basis, in order to help you most effectively.

Even though we use the whole-person approach, based on our experience, limiting the number of goals we aim to achieve is very important. You cannot accomplish all your goals or change everything in your health at once, just like you cannot build a house in several weeks. This is why we would like you to pick one primary area of focus for your program visit.

Many of our guests came for multiple visits—they were setting different goals every time. For example, one of our participants chose her 1st program the Emotional Wellness area of focus, due to recent trauma. In a few years, she came back to work on arthritis issues and chose Physical Health as her primary area of focus. A year later, she came for Habits Repatterning – with the primary goal of losing weight. By that time, her physical and emotional well-being was in a good state, and she was able to make significant progress in weight loss, which she could not see in the first two visits. She was very motivated and decided to repeat the same goal a year later. This time she wasn’t able to lose as much weight (because there wasn’t as much to lose), but it still was an impressive weight loss, and this time it was more a maintenance than an emergency visit.

You may say: who can afford to come so many times and pay xxx. I thought I’d do three weeks and I will be done for life. The answer is very straightforward:  we’d love to have a magic wand to remove all your health issues once and forever, but, unfortunately, there are no quick fixes (and if you still believe in this, please keep in mind that Fresh Start won’t be able to provide those). It takes time to gain healing momentum.

There is no magic in what we do. It is all sheer work on both sides – the guest and the team. It is hard work, and it takes time. No shortcuts!

Please understand that the person who came to the Fresh Start for four visits (and probably will be back for more) did not envision coming back on her first visit.  She continued returning because she was seeing the results and kept progressing and moving forward to her desired level of health. Additionally, on every visit, she could absorb more health knowledge and integrate it more deeply when home.

Though it may sound depressing for some to hear that they have a journey ahead of them, it is honest and realistic. It takes time to go down the hill, and it will take time to go up. But think of what it costs to take pills every day, feel more tired and old every day, to feel depressed every day. If you do not do anything about it, it will not change. Ever. Start this work, and you’ll discover the joy of self-care and self-love. It is worth everything!

Even one visit may be a life-changing experience.

How Do I Determine the Main Area of Focus and Which Goals Do I Start From?

Let’s start with the area of focus. Sometimes it is obvious which area of focus you need to pick. In other situations, you have so much on your plate that you may be hesitant.

Here is a simple health self-evaluation that may be helpful for you to do (write down answers as you go):

  1. Go through pages dedicated to Physical Health and Emotional Wellness Areas of focus and review bullet point benefits and issues they list.
    • If you do not have major Physical and Emotional Health Issues, please go to Habits Repatterning™ Page instead.
  2. Using the lists, identify which ones apply to you.
  3. As you look at your health conditions and issues, which one is in its most advanced stage (ex. joint inflammation, digestive pain, anxiety, grief)?
    • Is it part of the physical or emotional well-being?
  4. Which health issue, if it improved/ changed, would make you the happiest?
  5. If you smoke:
    • do you have the intention to Quit Smoking?
    • on a count of 1 to 10 (1 means the least, 10 means the most), how motivated are you to quit Smoking?
    • on a count of 1 to 10 (1 means the least, 10 means the most), how much do you use it as a crutch to cope with emotional trauma?
  6. If you suffer from emotional issues:
    • on a count of 1 to 10 (1 means the least, 10 means the most), how acute/ raw are your emotional issues?
  7. After answering the questions above, please check the following descriptions of the three areas and choose the most applicable one.

Choose the Physical Area of Focus if:

  • Your physical condition is debilitating and the most limiting factor in your day-to-day life.
  • Physical issues are the primary causes of your depression and anxiety.
  • You suffer from severe obesity.

Choose the Emotional Area of Focus if:

  • Your emotional condition is debilitating and the most limiting factor in your day-to-day life.
  • Emotional issues are the primary reason for your physical problems.
  • You recently experienced a severe trauma from which you haven’t healed.

Choose Habits Repatterning Area of Focus if:

  • Your main goal is to Quit Smoking, + you do NOT suffer from advanced depression and do not use Smoking as a crutch.
    • Note: if you do suffer from advanced depression, choose Emotional Wellness. From our experience, most people can quit smoking only after their emotional well-being is stabilized. If you are emotionally unstable, we typically start with 80% work on your emotional and 20% on your physical health. In those cases, you may be able to quit Smoking on week 3 of the program or another program visit (whenever you feel better emotionally).
  • You do NOT have any major physical or emotional conditions, + your goal is to improve lifestyle habits, exercise routine, lose weight or change a life direction.
    • Note: While most guests desire to lose weight and improve their lifestyle (and there will be a lot of components in the program that will help you to do so), if there are major physical or emotional issues, they need to be looked after first.
      • For example, most people dream of losing weight and consider it their goal #1. However, if your knees hurt, you won’t be able to run or do other intensive physical activities, which are crucial for effective weight loss. If you are emotionally unstable, your body may use your weight as a buffer to protect you from negative emotions. If your hormonal system is out of whack, your body is dehydrated and malnourished; your weight loss progress may also be slow before these are addressed.

Evaluation by Fresh Start Professional Team

In addition to your choice of the area of focus, we also do our evaluation during the prescreening and intake.

The pre-registration alignment consultation, before and upon-arrival health assessment, and program goals forms sent to you upon registration play a considerable role.

The more accurate and detailed info you provide during your program consultation and in your health forms, and the clearer you are yourself on your health priorities and program goals, the more specific plan we will be able to create. The most significant portion of planning takes place before your program because it requires a significant amount of time. If we do not need to guess, we can do more for you!

Your plan will be highly predetermined by the Area of Focus you choose. The more thoughtfully you fill out your information, the more your plan will match your health needs. Please ensure you take your time to determine your main area of focus using the information above.

Please ensure you fill out the documentation accurately and thoughtfully. This information is kept confidential and shared with the professional team to create the most accurate overall plan and the best experience during each one-on-one session. We take every piece of info you fill out seriously. This is the only information we have prior to your arrival, and a significant portion of the planning, especially the entire week 1 planning, is based on it.

Additionally, therapist availability and some supplies, required for your individual plan, need to be pre-planned in advance. For example, if you smoke and indicate that your goal is to quit smoking, we will prepare in advance for you a quit smoking support package, as well as therapies for the respiratory system’s health. However, if you smoke and do not plan to quit during your visit to us, your plan will be different.



Accounts

7 Days - JUMP START

$29

ONE TIME FEE

7 Days are great if you need a good jump start. This program will allow you to distress, do a mini-detox and rejuvenate deeply.

RESULTS: Most people improve in at least one health area by 10-25%. Individual results vary.

INDIVIDUALIZATION AND SPECIFICITY OF PROTOCOLS: Due to the shortness of time (assessments and design of protocols process take 3-4 days), your one-on-one health plan will be largely based on the pre-arrival assessment and your custom protocols are 3 days long.

TYPICAL IMPROVEMENTS: You will unwind and recharge your batteries, which will help you make better life choices and decisions, as well as to be more equipped to meet life challenges. This length may also be beneficial for rejuvenating your digestive system and joint health. If no other conditions are present - you may focus on minor sinus inflammation. While no major health challenges can be addressed within 7 days, the program has proven to be effective for many guests with minor burnout, distress, general feeling of blah, non-injury or non-degenerative disease-related pains and aches, indigestion and minor joint inflammation. In order to reach the results, the created individual plan and program need to be strictly followed.

DISCLAIMER: Due to the shortness of the program, some people may be leaving in the middle of their healing cycle while still experiencing some detox and healing symptoms. Such symptoms are temporal and usually disappear within a few days.

This program is not optimum for moderate to advanced depression and anxiety.

14 Days - HEAL DEEPER

$49

ONE TIME FEE

14 Days allow enough time for the body to accumulate sufficient energy and nutrients to be able to go into a deeper healing state.

RESULTS: Most people experience progress in at least one health area by 25-50%. Individual results vary.

INDIVIDUALIZATION AND SPECIFICITY OF PROTOCOLS: We can offer you custom protocols based on your in-depth upon-arrival assessment, in addition to the pre-arrival assessment. This makes your protocol more individualized and specific to your health goals.

TYPICAL IMPROVEMENTS: Your body will be able to complete the 1st cycle of healing and start tapping into physical, emotional, mental and habits issues – discovering the root causes and understanding the thought and lifestyle patterns that do not serve you, as well as gain many helpful tools to deal with them. While this program length is not optimum for people with multiple or advanced degenerative conditions, it has been effective for many people with moderate depression and anxiety without physical health issues, and for those who have some minor-moderate physical issues without an advanced emotional component.

DISCLAIMER: In advanced and multiple health conditions, this program length may not be sufficient to reach the level of desired stabilization and clearing of all healing symptoms. Since there are multiple layers to peel, we cannot guarantee that everyone will leave in a feel good state. Keep in mind that external and internal triggers from not liking something in the environment to being involved in a non-supportive relationship may slow down or even undo the improvements. 

21 Days -TOTAL HEALTH & WELLNESS MAKEOVER

$49

ONE TIME FEE

21 Days are totally life-changing and allow for stabilization, integration and a major acceleration in your health results.

RESULTS: Most people start feeling progress in at least one health area by 50-75%Individual results vary.

INDIVIDUALIZATION AND SPECIFICITY OF PROTOCOLS: By week 3 we can deepen or adjust your health protocols, based on observing your health symptoms and your body response. Time allows us to work on a 2nd health issue or to more specifically address the primary issue.

TYPICAL IMPROVEMENTS: There is a tipping or major acceleration point that happens at this stage. One guest said, “14-day program helped me to get physically, emotionally and mentally to where I was before, but the 21-day allowed me to see my full potential and start reaching it”. While we cannot guarantee improvements in any specific area, many guests with one single advanced issue (ex. COPD, diabetes type II, advanced depression, body inflammation) considerably improved their health condition in 21 days. If there is a neurological or autoimmune disorder, an advanced sleep disorder, extremely severe trauma or ongoing trauma triggers, complex or multiple disorders, or if one or more major body systems are in an advanced degenerative state, the overall results may be more modest or not show in a particular area. 

DISCLAIMER: Please still be realistic that even 3 productive weeks cannot undo the health challenges accumulated over a lifetime. Sometimes other issues will improve and you may not see improvements in the primary condition.  

Healing is about momentum. It resembles a spruce tree, slowly growing for ten years and deepening its roots – until one day, it takes off far above your head. How does healing compare with the spruce? When you become depleted from the hectic city life, your body cannot do much for the first few days except to let you know how much you abused it and to plea for so-needed rest. Then it needs to de-gunk and re-nourish to accumulate energy before it can start the restoration cycle. It takes time to rebuild organs, re-pattern habits, and reprogram unhealthy thought patterns.

If you deal with a lot, physically or emotionally, or if you smoked for 20+ years, we recommend choosing 21 Days. 

Health transformation is not simply progressive; it has an accumulative factor. As your body unwinds more, gets more energy, more nutrients, as its toxic burden lightens, it gradually starts transforming and healing itself, giving you a sense of true well-being, and the skin and soul glow that are incomparable with anything else.

In addition to profound physical and emotional changes, the third week gives you a much deeper integration of the health knowledge you gained during your stay, and you feel much more ready to come back to the “real world.”

Healing Process: How do we guide you through it?

During the Go-Deeper Programs™, we work with you individually to assist them in reaching your unique health goals. Over the years we have developed an effective and safe process, including Professional Assessments and Guidance and an Individualized Healing Path™, consisting of One-on-One Treatments with experienced natural health specialists and bodyworkers, as well as Custom Healing Protocols™ (supplements) to help you with your health situation in an individualized manner.

What besides my Individual Health Services, will I be doing at the Fresh Start?

The Foundation of all Programs is

 Core Program

Core Program is your experience and foundation of your individualized healing. It includes meals, drinks and daily activities. Through the Core Program, you will learn how to continue on a health journey at home. Educational classes on a healthy lifestyle and the functioning of various body organs, food preparation demos and emotional well-being workshops are included, as well as guided meditations, yoga, fitness classes, and much more.

The program meals are healing in their nature. They consist of vegan, organic foods with a large percentage of raw fibre (composed primarily of fresh vegetables, greens, fruits, nuts and seeds). Such foods are especially beneficial for those suffering from diabetes, HBP and obesity (and not only!). In addition to meals, various health drinks and supplements are served throughout the day to assist in optimizing digestion and enhancing sleep.

Core Program is an essential foundation for reaching your individualized health goals, no matter what area of focus you choose and works with it integratively and complimentary. It is also called Fresh Start Healing Structure™. We aimed to create a structure that is balanced and semi-flexible. You will have a more structured morning, including various classes and health check-in, and a more relaxed afternoon filled with one-on-one treatments and relaxing activities, such as nature walks, rest, health videos, steam bath and some fun activities like a game night.

The program is hosted at the eco-friendly Ocean Resort, located on a beautiful ocean-front property on Vancouver Island, BC, Canada.

Health Conditions We Do Not Work With:

  • Immobility and inability to walk/look after one’s basic needs without assistance.
  • Recent organ failure (heart, liver, kidney etc.), on dialysis, frequent comas, unstable vertigo, frequent seizures.
  • Acute conditions/disease states that are under high risk of hospitalization (f.ex. acute cholecystitis).
  • We do work with people having various inflammatory conditions, which often subside significantly over time. Yet the person needs to be prepared to go through a period of discomfort and temporal healing symptoms, as well as for a longer period of healing, as those do not get better instantly.
  • Less than 6 months after a heart attack/ stroke
  • Suicidal depression and recent hospitalization due to it
  • Psychosis or uncontrollable anger outbursts
  • Strong discomfort/ inability to be in group environments
  • Extremely unstable physical or emotional health condition requiring medical assistance, 24-hour supervision and frequent 1-on-1 attention

The list is not exhaustive.

Please keep in mind that we are not a medical facility and do not have staff onsite 24-7.

Disclaimer:

Though we have professional staff with advanced health expertise and most of our guests receive deep health results, the Fresh Start cannot guarantee health recovery from any specific disease or symptom, as the healing process is individual, gradual and depends on many factors. Please be realistic in expectations as there is no such thing as quick fixes when it comes to healing.
