Recommended Detox Weekend: The Farm at San Benito (Pics!)

Hi All,

Let me share with you some pictures from the best weekend I have ever spent in my life. Last weekend, me and my brother went to The Farm at San Benito located in Lipa City Batangas. The Farm is known for its all vegan food menu and their 49 acres of abundant coconut land transformed into a wellness and spa resort. I had been to The Farm years ago for a day trip with my parents and remembered enjoying their Pure Vegan buffet, but I never really went around the place and experienced it till now.

Since I realized that this weekend was the closest I'd get to a holiday this summer, I decided to make the most out of it. And the most it definitely was. The Farm turned out to be the perfect place for me since it is very conducive to my new lifestyle choice (healthy healthy-han haha). 

The Weekend was composed of Yoga, Self meditation, Swimming, SPA treatments and Exercise. That, and the fact that everything you're eating is healthy, pure vegan and it was absolutely delicious! Mostly all of the ingredients found in their recipes are grown in the Premises too, organic and full of good things for the body.

We stayed at the Sulu 10 cottage, it was stunning :)





My most favorite place in The Farm would be the SPA, I would hang out here just look out to the view, do some laps in the pool and just sit, bask in the calmness.


I even managed to do some Yoga on the Edge  and around The Farm



And of course, some of the food that we ate (Yes all is PURE VEGAN, not even Dairy!)
 



Beautiful mornings :)

And they have a bunch of peacocks roaming the vicinity, beautiful!


Me and my Bro swimming


 On the last day, I found this hidden meditation spot and fell absolutely in Love!

And of course, the Beauty Junkie that I am, I didn't leave without some all natural Skincare products from The Farm, Yummehhh!! :)


Overall, I would give my The Farm at San Benito experience 100 THUMBS UP!! It was the best weekend ever, I know i have kept saying that over and over during and after my stay but it really was. The Farm is definitely my kind of place, something I would choose over and Beach trip. Me and my brother were so elated with our trip that we are planning on our next one already! :)

I do recommend a Detox weekend like this once in a while in a place like The Farm,  for a healthier mind, body and soul. :)

Namaste!

The wonders of Wheatgrass and Alfalfa

In this day and age's lifestyle, we have to rely on ourselves to make the right choices for a better health. We choose food that would best keep us healthy like greens and fruits. But sometimes, no matter how healthy the lifestyle you live, it is not enough. We need detoxification. And what better way to detoxify than green products.

Here's a little secret my family has been using for about a decade now. Here's how my family keeps fit and healthy.

Wholefood Wheatgrass and Alfalfa
“Natural Detoxifier, Antioxidant & Blood Alkalinizer”


Stress, pollution, an inactive lifestyle and a diet characterized by over-consumption and under nutrition all account for the rising incidence of chronic illnesses among us today including cancer, diabetes, heart problems and arthritis. The invisible time bomb is the toxic build up within us. Scientific evidence indicates that our total load of toxic exposure reduces our body’s ability to detoxify and eliminate them.

The key to dietary detoxification support is in increasing the body’s alkalinity and reducing acidity. Chlorophyll-rich foods such as greens like wheatgrass and alfalfa help stabilize and maintain acid-alkaline balance of the body. Since we cannot eat as much of these everyday in order to stay healthy, a clear alternative is to use chlorophyll supplementation available in the form of food concentrates to ensure that our body receives the detoxification substances it requires for optimal health.

My parents have been taking this product for 10 years now, I can definitely see the positive effects on my parents. They look younger and definitely stronger than before. This is a pic of my mom taken a couple of months ago, she's 52 and looks like she's in her 30's. Look at my pretty mom :)
