In all the best health wellness clinics, nearly all the guests confess: the hardest part is when they return home. Why is it so? Integrating the healthy habits into their day-to-day is not easy. Let's look at what some of the best retreats suggest so that guests optimize the benefits after their program.
Applying the Chenot Method at home
Chenot Palace Weggis emphasizes the importance of embracing the Chenot Method beyond the retreat. Guests are encouraged to continue the "Chenot Diet", a plant-based, nutrient-rich regimen designed to reduce inflammation and detoxify the body. Maintaining a balanced diet at home helps sustain the physical benefits achieved during the program. The cookbook of Chenot serves as a rich inspiration for recipes to prepare delicious meals on a daily basis.
Follow up on your check-ups after your program at Clinique Nescens or La Réserve Genève
La Réserve Genève, in collaboration with Clinique Nescens, offers Nescens better-aging programs that begin with an in-depth diagnostic phase. Upon departure, guests receive diagnostic results, a summary of treatments and therapies performed, and personalized maintenance therapy and dietary advice to continue their wellness journey at home. And this is indeed one of the keys: the quality of the diagnostic you receive at top longevity clinics is amazing, but if you don't follow up and track your progress beyond the few days at the retreat, you're missing a great share of the upside.
Beyond Palmaïa, stay connected with nature
For many guests at Palmaïa The House of AïA, the experience is a revelation around the powerful connexion with nature, the shamanic experiences, as well as the magnificence of the mindful moments. The Nomadic Guides (wellness advisors) at Palmaïa emphasize the importance of continuing mindfulness and wellness practices post-retreat. Guests are encouraged to integrate meditation, healthy and conscious eating, as well as sustainable living habits into their daily routines to sustain and extend the benefits experienced during their stay.
Your food is your medicine: one of the teachings of SHA
SHA Wellness Clinic advocates for the cultivation of good habits towards healthy aging. One of the most applicable hacks in the daily life is around food, starting with a miso soup for breakfast. In addition, guests are provided with personalized plans that include dietary recommendations and explanations, as well as fitness routines (in most SHA programs) and stress management techniques (in particular in the excellent leader's performance program) to integrate into their daily lives post-retreat.
After Ananda, take a little bit of Ayurveda home
Ananda in the Himalayas follows Ayurveda, the traditional Indian medical science. Its principles are very applicable in modern life, regarless whether you life in India or anywhere in the world. Guests are therefore encouraged to continue practices such as yoga, meditation, and most importantly Ayurvedic dietary habits, to sustain the benefits of their retreat.
In addition to these general considerations, most retreats on Serenity Ways provide individual tips tailored to your needs, so that your transition back to daily life is as seamless as possible. The wellness experts of Serenity Ways are also here to help those who wish to have a tailored follow-up.
