Daily activities

Daily activities

The days are structured around recommended activities, which you are free to take part in. Nothing will be imposed on you.

From 8am: First morning tea - Review of how everyone spent the night, how they felt, how they woke up, their dreams...

9.00am: A gentle wake-up call that invites you to be present with yourself. Breathing exercises followed by relaxation or meditation.

11am-3pm:

- Meditative walks and hikes in the surrounding area adapted to the pace of the group.

We'll be walking through sumptuous landscapes while discovering the local heritage and history. Walking, breathing and meditating speed up the detoxification process through deep, regular breathing, which oxygenates the blood and tones the muscles. The body remains dynamic and regains new energy and inner joy.

- An instinctive clay modelling workshop with ceramist Elisabeth Bourget, who will guide you through this creative activity.

- Dream Catcher" workshop: an afternoon creating your own dream catcher in the intimacy of nature with Muriel.

Fasting makes us more available and open-minded, so that we can reconnect with our spontaneity and creativity.

15:00-18:30: Rest, free time and individual treatments offered by members of the on-site team. The programme includes foot reflexology and Californian massage to help you relax, eliminate toxins and stimulate your vital energy.

6.30pm: Sharing a vegetable broth.

Our opinion

A soothing interlude in a unique setting in the heart of the Ardèche.

"Fasting is not only a way of cleansing ourselves internally and rebuilding our bodies, it's also a way of taking the time to live with ourselves, a special moment in these modern times when people are running out of time and rushing around all day.
My first experience of fasting was a fascinating adventure that opened up new horizons for me.
So it's in a spirit of sharing that today I've chosen to accompany you on this astonishing experience of rejuvenation that will transport you to the discovery of your body in a natural environment far from the daily worries and stresses of city life".

Spring Fasting and Mono-diet
Claire

Since this very particular and unequalled stay for me, I am still fully marked by these beautiful and strong moments, also marked by a new way of living, particularly from the point of view of food, food hygiene I would say. A real serenity.

After this stay I found myself again, I rediscovered the taste for eating well, I found a real well-being, both in my body and in my head, this challenge that was for me this week of fasting, with its preparation, the time of fasting itself, and then the resumption of eating was successful, Thanks to you Graziella, your knowledge, your support, thanks to the context which lent itself to it, and to the favourable place, thanks to the friends and the friendship which was created spontaneously between us all, thanks to our exchanges, to listening to each other.

It was a real ordeal for me, which gave me an electric shock... a "good" electric shock. And especially the last two days I had reached a real state mixed with exhaustion and well-being at the same time (that I didn't imagine I would be able to reach, without reacting further). But this "electroshock" made me find myself again, and gave me back the energy, the one that was in me but that I was not always using in a positive way, for me.

What this stay has given me is what I really needed without really knowing before.

I feel good... very good. For me it would have been a bit like a second birth, really.

I stayed in a weakened state for a very long time after our return, and it was difficult to get out of it (...) Since Tuesday, it's all fresh, I've totally recovered from my frequent weakening moments. Yesterday, Thursday, I started cycling again, and every day I prefer to walk. And I feel great. And.... incredible: I no longer cough at night....! and.... I sleep well every night....! I can't believe it. Thank you Graziella, what a good idea it was to contact you... what a good idea it was to take the step of fear..."

Louise

I am delighted with this week of fasting accompanied by Graziella. It was a first for me. At the end of the fast I feel like a new person. I was surprised to find that my body was getting used to not eating, Graziella's kind guidance really helps me to listen to myself, with lots of love, and that's great! I was very happy to offer this rest to my body and to experience this slowing down of the rhythm that comes with fasting, I really felt closer to myself. And also, what I noticed was that I could decide what was good for my body, without being trapped by the beliefs I had about food. There is nothing like experience to learn! When I came back from the fast, I also needed to lighten up on my equipment, I sorted out my cupboards and drawers... What a joy it was to unclutter my environment. In fact, what I did for my interior was naturally done in my exterior. What a gift this week has been, rich in experiences where I see myself with more listening and respect for myself. Thank you very much Graziella for this beautiful week and the activities you proposed to us. And, see you soon for another fast!

Anna

I experimented with fasting for the first time in 2016 (6 days), the trigger: the film "Fasting, a new therapy" (Arte), I did it again this year with Graziella again as a naturopathic guide. In my opinion, it is essential to be supervised because we do not know how our body will react and in these moments, it is better to have good advice and naturopathic applications! My motivation: to detoxify and rest my body and organs out of respect and kindness for all the work they do on a daily basis. I am amazed by the capacities and intelligence of this marvellous human body which takes advantage of this break to repair itself, it is magic!
No feeling of hunger as the intestines are empty after the purge. I was filled with advice and common sense during the presentations and I must say that Graziella has the art of communicating clearly and simply her knowledge of the vast field of naturopathy, which allowed me to reinforce my thoughts on the importance of eating consciously and adjusting my eating habits.

Highlights of this course : 

  • the place in Ardèche in a 12th century castle which invites to contemplation, to a spiritual retreat...
  • the diversity of activities offered: Meditation, Do In, QI Gong, Sophrology, Reflexology, Storytelling, Astrology classes, Hammam, Hiking, Nutritional lectures...
  • Mental preparation: by affirming to prepare psychologically.
  • the synergy of the group, which allowed me to meet some great people.

A big thank you to Graziella who, through her professionalism and human qualities, accompanied us with kindness...

Antonia

I am happy to have had this experience of fasting.

Graziella gave me good advice for the first stage, the descent into food, and for the third stage, the resumption of food. It was certainly a week without food, but a deep inner emptiness gradually set in with a feeling of physical and mental well-being.

And what's more! in an exceptional idyllic setting at the 12th century Château de Liviers in the heart of the Monts d'Ardéche regional nature park.

Our days were rich in activities such as meditation, Gi Gong, sophrology, foot reflexology, hikes, hammam and massage; in the evening, after the broth, various workshops were offered: astrology, naturopathy, essential oils, healthy and balanced food, the digestive system; days and evenings filled with spiritual and playful nourishment.

Beautiful meetings and exchanges within the group!

Grazie mille Graziella for this beautiful and successful fasting experience; now I am ready with energy and vitality for a new healthy food balance.
