The retreat, which has been running for 20 years, combines yoga, fitness, meditation, games, walks, education and nutrition, and is designed to change the way attendees feel, both mentally and physically.

During the retreat, guests drink four juices daily rather than eating solid meals – juicing can seem intimidating to do on your own at home, so the retreat is a good intro to the practice.
Juicing splits opinion - some people are avid believers in the practice as a reset, while others believe juicing is a form of restrictive eating which can lead to disordered eating. Others feel juicing removes the goodness from fruit and vegetables.
One fan quizzed Shirley on this, writing: "I read lots about how [juicing] is pointless because you lose the fibre," to which Shirley replied: "Read the book, it is very interesting and no you don’t loose the fiber he explains that" referring to Jason's book 7-Day Juice Challenge: The Juice Master Diet
