Your 11-day journey at Manna House, begins on Sunday with a warm greeting as you settle into your comfortable ensuite shower bedroom at the Manor. Your experience starts with a nourishing plant-based lunch, freshly prepared with locally sourced ingredients, including selections from our own garden. Depending on the time of your arrival, you'll have a private consultation on Sunday or Monday with our naturopaths to tailor a programme specifically to your personal health needs.

​

After lunch,  you will begin the habit of digestive walks followed by a group welcome and introductory talk outlining the activities planned for the coming days. In the evening, savour a comforting vegetable broth before a health presentation titled "The Path to Perfect Health," setting the theme for your retreat.

​

Monday begins with early health checks, body chemistry assessment, gentle exercise, and optional morning inspirations that nurture the spiritual aspects of well-being. Depending on your health journey, you may embark on a healing Juice Feast, where nature's finest ingredients in juices and smoothies create optimal conditions for your body to cleanse and heal. This personalised element of the retreat can extend for up to five days, with various freshly prepared juices and smoothies offered throughout the day, complemented by gentle exercise, walks and informative health presentations. In the interactive health presentations, you will learn about various processes of the body and how the body possesses amazing capabilities to recover from sickness, given the correct conditions.

​

Tailored therapies such as hydrotherapy treatments, steam, massages, herbal teas, and comprehensive health assessments are administered based on your specific needs, allowing time for relaxation, leisurely gardening, reading, or peaceful meditation. Late afternoon brings engaging practical demonstrations, followed by a nutritious warm broth and enlightening health presentations before bedtime, ensuring a restorative sleep.

​

Subsequent days mirror the initial programme structure, with continued focus on the Juice Feast, interactive health classes, morning inspirations, practical demonstrations, and rejuvenating therapies. Ample free time between activities allows you to pursue activities—or non-activities—of your choosing, enhancing your retreat experience.

The duration of your Juice Feast is closely monitored to align with your health progress, transitioning smoothly to a sumptuous breakfast of raw and steamed vegetables upon its completion. Enjoy delightful plant-based buffets for lunch and traditional yet healthy freshly cooked meals for breakfast each day.

 

Your remaining days are filled with enjoyable exercise, enlightening health presentations, practical demonstrations, restorative therapies, engaging activities, and delicious plant-based meals.

​

On Tuesday evening, day 10, participate in a final ‘exit’ health consultation and receive a summary of key health actions and recommendations. You'll have the opportunity to acquire items for continuing your health journey. The day concludes with "The Journey Continues" presentation, personal testimonies, a celebratory graduation, and group photos, commemorating your transformative journey.

 

On Wednesday, the morning of departure, indulge in a hearty and delicious breakfast. The evaluation offers a moment of reflection on your accomplishments over the past 10 days and prepares you for continued wellness beyond Manna House.

 

Departure typically occurs between 9 am and 12 pm, filled with mixed emotions as you bid farewell to the friendly atmosphere that has nurtured you. Departing guests often leave with new friendships and cherished memories, eagerly anticipating their return for future stays.
