10-Days Dry Fasting
by Mirit Omrzel, SLO

It unfolds within a connection to the cosmic (sound) vibrational energy grid, or life soup – to the Source, the Logos of life. With the cosmic support of the Universal Intelligence of life, our consciousness expands greatly, which makes the cleansing of destructive and subconscious contents and emotional causes of problems much easier and more effective.
Raw Food
by Tina More, CRO
For years, my body sent me signals, in the form of various diseases that a change was needed, but I didn't hear them. All the way to raw food. She started cleaning my body, which changed for the better both externally and internally. Purification also came in the segment of friends, and relationships. The food touched my emotional body as well as my spiritual body. The way I feel and look at the world, life and myself have completely changed. Clean, living, plant-based food gives us a chance to start living a new life in this life.

Fasting, Pranic Living
by Nicolas Pilartz, ITA
The 9-day process is like a journey through an unknown land, where one can discover oneself and the wonders that are hidden within. It is an opportunity to experience the power of prana: the life force, and to establish within oneself a permanent state of peace and unity, as it offers us a chance to simply reconnect with the natural state of being. During the process, our energy begins to circulate more freely throughout our system and the body has a chance to get used to a new form of nourishment
