Our health is precious

Our lifestyles, our eating habits, negative thoughts, conflicts our environment all can create illness. Fortunately, we can stimulate the process of healing by the most simplest way : "rest"

.Fasting is a profound 
and repairing rest

Based on the powers of self healing (the body healing itself) which each and every one of us possess fasting is a unique and fascinating experience. The human body regenerates, detoxicates and rejuvenates itself. During this introspection, a fantastic work of liberation is being performed on all aspects of our being : physical, mental, emotional and spirituel.  Fasting, a long rest, as one nignt which continues, on and on permitting the unconscious mind to do a major clean up of the entire organism. Each system works toward fine tuning itself : the kidneys, the immune, respiratory, cardiovascular, lymphatic, intestinal and nervous systems. Each sense gets back its sharpness : smell, sight, hearing taste, and touch. Fasting requires two stages, one is as imporant as the other : the integral fast itself (bed rest and water only) and the recuperation period. Both are of equal length.

Before the fast

In the weeks preceding the fast, it is recommended to settle outstanding states of affairs in order to fast with a peace of mind.
- a 30 to 60 minute walk in day light
- 8 hours of sleep

- eating habits based on fresh fruits and vegetables, nuts whole grains, seeds, and legumes.
- the reduction, better yet the elimination of drugs cigarettes, medication tea, coffee, alcohol, meat, fish, chocolate, sweets, garlic, spices, vinegar, all food stuffs wich have been modified, denaturized, devitalized...

I recommend that you read up on fasting, many books, and tapes are available through the "American Natural Hygiene Society" P.O. Box 30630, Tampa, Florida 33630 Tel. : (813) 855-6607 Fax. : (813) 855-8052

Attention

While fasting no medication can be taken. If you are taking medication before coming to fast it is your responsibility to stop taking them voluntarily and with the consent of your doctor if necessary. Since fasting is the most natural way that exists to clean and regenerate the human body, no supplements or enemas will be used.

During the fast

You'll need evening wear, a bath robe, wool socks, slippers and a few toiletries such as natural soap wihout perfume (you need no creams, lotions or perfumes). Warm exterior clothes are needed for the period of recuperation after the fast. You can bring relaxation tapes, a small tape player and mini ear phones. We suggest the least contact with the outside world as possible in order to fully profit from your experience. A short visit (30 minutes) on Sunday in the afternoon and short telephone calls are permitted for those who find it too difficult to abstain. You are supported, all the long, by a registered nurse with regular visits during which the marvelous process of fasting is explained.

After the fast

The recuperation : eating and activity are gradually reintrocuced in a well planned manner in order to permit the body to get back into the rhythm of things. This recuperation period begins at the clinic and continues at home. It must be fully lived and finished before returning to work.

A few testimonies

"Before my fast, my weekends were spent in the waiting room, of the hospital, Since my fast, I'm spending them hiking in the mountains."
Brigitte Boudreau

"Until 60 years old, I took a lot of medication, up to more than a $1000.00 per year. Since I fasted 4 1/2 years ago, I haven't taken even an aspirin. I got back my health and my love of life."
Louis Léger

"For me, fasting was an important turn around in my life, I have received wonderful health benefits and especially a new awareness in my life, as much on a moral basis as on a spiritual one. "
Guy Lussier

Other testimonies

"Youpiiiii!!! Hypoglycemia it is finished!! Thank you Adele to create us a place to renew our body and our spirit. Thank you to have chosen a collaborator such as Gloria. I leave not only relieved of a few kilos and sores, but also the process of cure of a large wound of the heart was complementary. It is a release on all the levels! Moreover, I am convinced that my objective that I had fixed myself at 15 years is assured: that to imitate Rabbit Jack and to make ski touring at 100 years! Thank you very much both, for your good care. Much love, recognition and gratitude." Arlette des Neiges." September 2004

"Hello Adele You remember that I made a fast to stop smoking ???? And well it goes. I think of you each time I want to smoke !!!!! For those and those which want to stop smoking I can really confirm that the fast is an effective and easy way. I know what I speak: I smoked two packages of cigarettes per day and I had tested all the separate
or combined methods: hypno-patche-therapy-zyban-auriculo. Good news, in 3 months I saved 1.000$, which will defray a voyage this winter and a hydro-relaxation weekend... " D.Malacort. Summer 2004

"In silence and loneliness, I heard Essence." L.Balassa
