Testimonials

info

I'm so Grateful for this Experience I just wanted a reset and this retreat really did help achieve exactly what I was looking for. It was affordable and the location seemed really attractive. Plus, with the preparation info beforehand I could tell Diane was knowledgeable. Well, the almost 11-hour hike was something that I never thought would be possible in a water fast but it was! Thank you, Diane. Trust in your body’s abilities. The Yoga is really helpful and I felt that it along with other things helped fill the time of the fast in truly meaningful and healing ways.

I enjoyed the Sedbergh retreat well beyond expectation. I'll be up for another reset in 2025!

Fasting-retreats: This was my very first experience with fasting, and I am truly grateful I took part in it. It was an incredible journey that impacted me on multiple levels, from the physical to the emotional. The program was well-designed, and Diane was absolutely amazing throughout. I particularly enjoyed her yoga classes - she is clearly a skilled and experienced teacher. I loved every aspect of the experience, and my body is deeply thankful for it.
