The Retreat

Nick Knowles and the group embark on a journey to Koh Phangan, Thailand, where we delve into their personal stories and the mental and physical challenges they face.

As their program begins, profound and polarized reactions emerge to the regimen and protocols.

The memories of the fast fade away, but Milton, who has Type II Diabetes, is just starting his protocol. As each person's journey takes center stage, the group begins to split apart.

As the group dives deeper into increasingly invasive therapies, such as extended juice cleanses and Chi Nei Tsang massages, the detox journey appears endless.

Even with the accelerated healing, the group still faces challenges in slowing down and fully embracing new ways of being.

While, other group members, like Milton and Kathy, end their fast, they are accompanied by unexpected temptations while exploring Thailand.

The transition back to normal life has started, highlighted by a member leaving early and Nick abruptly leaving the Qi Gong session during warm-up.

As the retreat goers prepare for the conclusion of their 28 day journey, they receive advice on maintaining the lifestyle.
