REST AND DIGEST IN WORCESTERSHIRE
Ancient Ayurvedic texts claim that many illnesses, both physical and mental, stem from poor digestion. Modern science is catching up, with a growing realisation that we really are what we eat. The five-night Healthy Gut Retreat, at The Clover Mill in Worcestershire, aims to help guests re-set their biome with a combination of pre- and pro-biotic food and drinks, yoga and yoga-nidra, meditation, massage and talks. Guests stay in beautiful, peaceful eco lodges overlooking a lake, which helps to complete the unwinding process. Goody bags are dished out before leaving and, guess what?, they’re not full of chocolate, but instead are crammed with healthy recipes, spice mixes, fermentation starters, massage oil, a personalised yoga practice and more , so that you can keep up the good work when you get home. The next retreats are from July 15-20, September 16-21 and October 21-26. Prices from £1975 per person, all inclusive. ◆ theclovermill.com/microbiome
