AT A GLANCE

Urban Renewal is a 2-week Detoxification and Revitalisation Wellness programme that will allow you the opportunity to renew, repair and recharge your mind, body and soul, and is brought to you by Moksha Yoga and the Institute of Lifestyle Medicine.
It is a unique and multi-dimensional programme, using a combination of naturopathic assessment and live blood analysis, yoga, therapeutic nutrition, stress-reducing relaxation, breathwork and meditation, massotherapy, self care remedies and lifestyle coaching talks and demonstrations.

CONTENT & STRUCTURE

This programme is designed to suit the needs of inner city working people, and can be done as part of your normal life.
It starts on a Saturday with an introduction and assessment day, followed by two weeks of morning sessions running Monday to Friday. These are hour and a quarter each of gentle yoga classes, breathing and meditation time. Every second morning includes 15 minutes of presentation on a particular topic presented by a Naturopath/ lifestyle coach who is also available for questions and monitoring.
The middle Saturday includes a series of workshop sessions that focuses on practical nutrition, lifestyle planning and stress management. The programme ends with a re-assessment in which you get an opportunity to reflect on the physical, mental and emotional changes and insights you have gained in this time.

You receive a journal, a manual with all detoxification plans, additional recipes, and talks. You can choose from three detoxification plans of varying intensity, ranging from a mono fast, to a modified elimination diet. You will also receive self-care products to use as part of your package. Membership to Moksha Yoga studio for the duration of the programme is also included. Finally, the programme includes a detoxification massotherapy session, onsite at anytime during the programme by pre-booking.

Your programme is supported and run by a team of qualified specialists. A Naturopath is on hand for support or questions during and after yoga sessions, and is available on a helpline outside of class times.

Urban Renewal is not just a short-term physical detoxification though you are likely to look and feel 10 years younger in 2 weeks, with more vitality, glowing skin and a clearer mind. But beyond that it is structured to bring revitalisation of mind, body and soul and create positive sustainable change in your life.
