ASHA, Tuscany

A 7-Day Guided Fasting Retreat to Heal Your Body, Clear Your Mind, & Awaken Your Spirit

WHAT PAST PARTICIPANTS SAY

Transformed Lives

What Type of Fast Is it?

Supported. Nourished. Transformed.

Amy’s Signature 3-Plan Approach:

At ASHA, we honor that everybody is different. That’s why Amy offers 3 levels of fasting. Choose from the following options, and adjust daily according to what your body wants:

Level

1

Detox Easy

Perfect for first-time fasters or those easing into the process.

Level

2

Medium

Deeper cleansing while still feeling nourished

Level

3

Advanced

The deepest level of cellular renewal

You’ll be guided to start where it feels right. Many participants naturally progress to lighter levels as the week unfolds.
Your body will tell you when it’s ready—and we’ll support you in listening to it, every step of the way with Amy’s expert guidance

MEET YOUR GUIDE

Led by Naturopath

Amy Rachelle, ND

For 24 years, Amy Rachelle has dedicated her life to helping people build vibrant health through food as medicine and natural healing.

As a naturopath, and co-founder of Alchemy of Breath and ASHA, Amy brings deep knowledge of gut health, immunity, plant-based nutrition, and the body’s innate ability to heal itself.

But more than that – she brings compassion, wisdom, and the lived experience of someone who walks this path herself.

Amy’s approach isn’t about rules or deprivation. It’s about reconnecting you to your body’s wisdom and teaching you how to nourish yourself in a way that creates lasting vitality.

During the retreat, Amy will:

You’ll leave not just cleansed, but educated – with the tools to continue nourishing yourself long after the retreat ends.

Fasting for the past 24 years extensively, Amy’s passion is to bring you ancient wisdom for deep healing, and getting your body back

What If You Could Press Reset?

Your body is brilliant. It knows how to heal itself – if we give it the chance.
But between the constant demands of life, the noise of modern living, and the relentless cycle of doing, the body rarely gets the deep rest it needs to truly regenerate.
This is your invitation to pause. To fast. To let go of what no longer serves you – physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
For seven days at ASHA, you’ll be guided through a transformative fasting experience designed not to deprive, but to nourish your body at the deepest level. Through a guided cleanse, gut healing protocols, daily practices, and
with other like-minded people in community, you’ll discover what happens when you finally give your body permission to heal.
This isn’t about willpower. This isn’t about restriction.
This is about remembering what it feels like to be truly alive.

The Ancient Wisdom Your Body Remembers

Fasting is one of the oldest healing practices known to humanity. For thousands of years, humans have used periods of fasting from solid food to:

Heal the Body

Clear the Mind

Awaken the Spirit

Here's what makes this experience unique:

You won't do it alone. And with Amy's expert guidance as a fasting naturopath, you’ll know what to do, and you’ll understand what your body is telling you

FAQS

I've never fasted before. Is this safe for beginners?

Absolutely! We start you at the level that’s right for your body, and Amy provides daily guidance and support. Most first-time fasters do beautifully with the Detox Easy level (juice + blends + salad). You’re never alone in this process.

Most people are surprised that after the first 1-2 days, hunger actually decreases. We provide 4+ liters of nourishing liquids daily, and you can adjust your level if needed. Your body knows how to fast—we’re just creating the supportive container.

We screen all participants and may require medical clearance for certain conditions (diabetes, heart issues, kidney disease, etc.). Amy is a licensed naturopath and will assess whether fasting is appropriate for you at this time. Your safety is our priority.

We include gentle yoga and walking, which most people feel great doing. Intense exercise isn’t recommended while fasting. This is a time for rest and restoration, not pushing your body.

 

You’re always in control. If your body is telling you it needs food, we’ll support you in breaking the fast safely and mindfully. There’s no shame—only honoring what your body needs.

Many people do release weight during a fast, but that’s not the primary goal. We focus on healing, not weight loss. Any weight released is a byproduct of your body detoxifying and resetting—not the point of the experience.

Maybe! We need to review your medications during the application process. Some medications require food, others may need adjustment. We work with you and encourage you to consult your prescribing physician.

We don’t include coffee in the fasting protocol as it’s stimulating and can interfere with the body’s natural detox process. We provide herbal teas and other nourishing alternatives. Many people find they don’t miss it!

No! While we encourage quiet time for reflection, this is a community experience. We share meals (well, juices!), have group sessions, and support each other through the process. Connection is part of the healing.

 

We’ll send you a preparation guide once you register. Generally, you’ll want to eat lighter in the days leading up, and we’ll guide you through how to break your fast safely at the end. This is all part of what you’ll learn!

 

Seven Days to Remember What Vitality Feels Like

You know that feeling when you wake up naturally, without an alarm, and your body feels light?

When your mind is quiet and clear?
When you feel connected to something deeper than your daily to-do list?

That’s what’s possible when you give your body space to heal
