VENUE:
Pictured here is one of our Mexico retreat venues, set away from the bustle of central Tulum, in jungle surrounds, while only 15 minutes from the idyllic white sand beaches.
The area is unique, known for its hundreds of cenotes (underground aquifers- see picture above) and Mayan ruins.
The Whole Truth Retreat's chosen venues for this season in Mexico offer accommodation that ranges from the simple and rustic individual cabins pictured here, to private rooms in a luxury villa but are always beautiful, natural and serene and worthy of selection as our retreat space.
Depending on the availability for your chosen dates you will be accommodated at this, or another carefully selected venue of equal or better standard. All of our chosen accommodation offers private ensuite facilties and the use of a swimming pool and gardens.
MENU:
The fruit, vegetables, and herbs used as the main part of all our delicious menu options are sourced locally and wherever possible are organically grown.
Accompanying the juice cleanse, powerful natural detoxifying and nutritional supplements are provided, as well as an optional additional supplementation programme tailored to your specific needs.
The quality, freshness, and life force in the produce used makes a vast difference to the depth and power of the cleansing / healing processes. Feeding yourself cleanly, lightly and naturally allows you to experience your body in a state of wellness that you may never have felt before.

Convenience, good digestion, excellent nutrition and high vibrations all in one delicious package :)
FIND OUT MORE ABOUT OUR JUICE CLEANSING PROGRAMME AND WHAT IT CAN DO FOR YOU HERE >>>
All meal options offer excellent, highly accessible nutrition and rest the often overloaded digestive system, allowing the body to shift into healing and repair mode. Depending on the length of your stay, you may experience a reduction in inflammation (the precursor to all disease), increased energy, natural weight loss, the eradication of minor health complaints (eg. mucus conditions, skin complaints, joint stiffness), and a noticeable improvement in more major ones.
Probiotic and fermented foods restore gut health, often a factor in chronic illness or fatigue. Light, easily digested meals, or liquid nutrition in the form of juices and broth, also support quietness and clarity of mind making this the ideal nourishment for the retreat space. Meals and juices are made with great skill, care, mindfulness and love, under the guidance of a qualified nutritionist.
If you would like to receive instruction on food preparation in order to support the continuation of healthy eating and cleansing practices on your return home, this is possible. Water fasting or dry fasting support is available on request.
Several options are available for your retreat, usually used in combination:
Juice Cleanse:
This option is excellent for detox, radical physical reset; treating chronic illness and inflammation. This includes three cold pressed juices at intervals throughout the day, as well as herbal, food, and vitamin supplements tailored to your nutritional / health and healing needs.
wheat grass, aloe, and rejuvelac are grown / wild harvested / self made by Tasha, your facilitator. Post juice cleanse raw food is served for a time for the transition out of a juice cleanse can be challenging, and its an important part of the process to move through gently and with awareness.
Raw Food:
This option is high in life force and rich in enzymes for better digestion and absorption. Meals are created freshly, using large amounts of fresh fruits and vegetables, and activated seeds, nuts, and grains. Also offered are special creations such as pro-biotic nut cheeses and whole seed crackers dehydrated at a low heat to keep digestive enzymes intact. Healthy desserts are made with natural unrefined sweeteners such as dates and raw honey, which have wonderful health benefits.
Plant Based:
This option supports the acid / alkaline balance in your body, your digestive health, and your hormonal balance on an ongoing basis. Without the inclusion of any processed or refined ingredients, this meal program offers light, cooked, whole foods with a large raw food component, a wonderful introduction to a healing, cleansing diet if a juice cleanse is not appropriate for you at this time.
