Detox through Yoga

Yoga emerged from the Vedic spiritual traditions of the largest urban civilization in the world of its time—India’s Vedic civilization that lasted from roughly 3100 to 1900 BC. Vedic literature provides us with the foundation for yogic and other traditions designed to transcend the limitations of the mind and body through meditation, breathing exercises, and yoga postures. It was the Vedic culture that created India’s medical tradition known as Ayurveda.

Budhhism, a distant offshoot of Vedic tradition, stressed the importance of meditation over physical postures. The original Yoga sages wrote that humans can experience mind and body mastery purification processes that include proper food, exercise, and meditation.

At Phuket Cleanse, we study all purification rituals, both modern and ancient to bring you the cutting edge in cleansing and healthy lifestyle practices. While at Phuket Cleanse, many of you (depending on your program of choice) will participate in yoga classes. We see yoga stretching as a necessary part of a cleanse in that yoga allows you to open up energetic blockages and knots in our muscles that contain toxins and calcification.

If you are not already doing yoga, we hope you will walk away with an addiction to this powerful anti-aging tool. The upside-down postures stimulate circulation to the whole body, especially the brain, promoting a healthy body, a clear mind, and glowing skin. The backward bending and stretching postures stretch the spine and release tension. The twisting postures energize the internal organs. While the forward bending postures calm the nervous system and release stress.

The breathing exercises aid your cleanse in that they bring oxygen and life force into the whole being. Deep rhythmic breathing is a practice we encourage you to work with daily while at Phuket Cleanse and integrate into your daily life.
