An Educational Fasting and Detox Spiritual Retreat Experience in Thailand

Dharma Healing International proudly going into its 17th year, offers an original “renaissance” spiritual fasting, detox course program according to Buddha Dharma philosophy; emphasizing, self-healing, self-empowerment, ‘holistic weight loss’ and spiritual transformation—guiding you into the sanctuary of your body, the freedom of a higher focus and the sacred responsibility to take loving care of your health, your loved ones, while striving toward the ecological sustainability of our beautiful planet.

In addition to a very thorough week of fasting, detox and cleansing with colonic irrigation we offer a course program, that assists each faster to work with the cleansing process and connect to their Buddha/Christ nature. A selection of classes are held throughout the week. Meditation, Yoga, Chakra-Qi, Water Exercise, Raw Food Preparation, Spiritual Nutrition, Vibrational Sound Healing, Dharma Talk, Kundalini Colonic-Acupressure, an Iridology reading and personal nutritional and psycho/spiritual counseling. . . are provided in a family atmosphere of peace and loving support. Fasters leave feeling rejuvenated, vibrant and dedicated to live a healthy life. Presently located on the beautiful tropical island of Koh Samui in the Gulf of Thailand. Our quiet part of the island awaits those who are looking to be reborn in paradise.

Our Goals

Through fasting and detox with colonic irrigation each faster is inspired to let go of the old ‘karma’, to purify, recharge and rejuvenate the virtues and blessings of what it means to be a healthy human being.
That through the fasting and cleansing process with colonic irrigation each faster is self guided to their sacred space within the body and psyche where healing and spiritual transformation take place.
That by experiencing the classes, personal counseling and fasting retreat environment each faster will feel supported and loved to progress on a holistic path of health, in harmony with nature and resonate globally with all living beings.
That through fasting for weight loss each faster wishing to lose weight will feel cherished, confident and directed toward maintaining a healthy diet and life style while finding balance through self-acceptance.
That through the fasting process we can share in the Divine Light  that goes through and surrounds each of us while realizing the need to become compassionate spiritual citizens and enlightened co-creators in a global economy based on wise choices.

Dharma Healing International presently offers its Fasting and Detox Course program at Soonthon Bungalows while using four other resorts to host our fasters within a 3 minute walk to our bungalow center. We are located on the beautiful and tranquil western side of Koh Samui, on the Bay of Peace/Ow Santi (one of Thailand's most well kept secrets) where brilliant sunsets take place every evening over the Ang Thong Islands. Occasionally we offer fasts at other locations on Koh Samui, Thailand and around the world.

If you would like to fast and detox in the privacy and comfort of the bungalow/villa/retreat of your choice, at your own specified date, we are happy to design a program just for you and your group.

Our courses begin on Mondays with a very thorough Orientation held at 10:30 for new fasters. It is good to arrive the day before your fast begins or if not very early on the morning of the fast.
