In Memory of MaryLou Sackett

 

Our Creative Health Institute Family is saddened by the loss of our longtime friend MaryLou Sackett. MaryLou has passed into heaven but warm memories of her remain with us on earth.

Please join us in remembering MaryLou and her family in your prayers.

MaryLou worked at Creative Health Institute for several years and then started her own healing center in Hillsdale.

We are grateful for her many contributions to Creative Health Institute and to the raw living food community.

OUR RAWSOME PROGRAMS

March has been a wonderful month so far at the Creative Health Institute, with amazing new programs and wonderful guests. We just finished our first Raw Chef 2 Advanced class and our guests expressed their creativity in such amazing ways. To prepare for the weekend with them, our interns worked around-the-clock to shelve our bookstore with homemade raw treats guests could take home. Our suggested donations for our homemade products are very reasonable and everybody enjoys having them on hand. Now we’re gearing up for a jam-packed 10-Day Detox and two packed juice fasts and we look forward to a wonderful spring. Thanks so much to everyone for your loving support of our amazing non-profit raw living food community. Please make plans to come and see us again soon. We’ve just added another three-day juice fast to our schedule due to popular demand of that program. It starts at 7 p.m. Thursday, April 14 and ends at 7 p.m. Sunday, April 17. Guests are welcome to leave earlier in the day on Sunday if they need to get back to work. Our juice fast program is special because it gives you an opportunity to undergo a supervised cleanse and attend educational classes about juicing for health and wellness.

Digestion takes up 85 to 90% of the body’s energy and the average person carries around in their bowel 10–15 pounds of toxic waste that is poisoning. The bowel feeds the blood and the blood feeds every cell, tissue and organ in the entire body. Toxicity in the bowel and digestive tract is what leads to premature aging and degenerative disease. Dr. Ann Wigmore said, “All disease starts in the bowel.”

 


We have designed the CHI 3-Day Juice Fast and Cleansing Retreat  to “turn back the hands of time, ” strengthen your immune system, cleanse your cells, while detoxifying and simultaneously rebuilding your body’s systems. This program is truly amazing in that you will receive more nutrition during this 3-day fast than you would normally receive from eating the Standard American Diet for a whole week.  The effectiveness of  this juice fast is steeped in the original traditions of Dr. Ann Wigmore’s programs for detoxification, rejuvenation and weight loss.

Juice fasting allows the body to concentrate its resources on thorough healing. On the CHI supervised juice fast you will eat no solid foods for three days because solid food slows or even stops the detoxification process.You will consume cleansing and nourishing juiced fruits and vegetables that detoxify body while rebuilding its core systems.

As the juice cleanse begins to work its “magic,” pounds of toxic accumulations are released from the alimentary canal, liver, kidneys, blood, lymphatic system and colon. This allows the entire body to detoxify and function more efficiently.

Along with the physical detoxification you will also remove stress and dis-ease causing “toxic” emotions. So come join us and reclaim your right to vibrant health.

May your life be filled with peace, love and joy!

CHI Graduates its first ADVANCED Raw Chef Level 1 Class

February went out like a lion at the Creative Health Institute with the completion of our first Advanced Raw Chef Level One class. The creative energy was off the chart. And the food these students made was just delicious.

It had been shaping into a long-cold winter in Michigan and we thought we needed to do something special to make our raw chef programs even more amazing than they’ve been in the past. Then an ice storm hit and we were without power, phones or Internet for three days.  We almost had to call off the Raw Chef 1 Weekend that was scheduled to begin February 25. But what doesn’t kill us, makes us stronger, right?!

So when our lights came on early Wednesday morning our program director had an epiphany of sorts: why not just turn it up a notch? After all, we have the talent in our kitchen right now. We could do it, he dreamed. And my goodness, we really did! Our raw chef level one students who arrived for the February 25 to 27 program received more hands on training than most raw chef students receive in a level two training program.

I think we can pretty safely say that out of a cold and icy February, something spectacular has been born. From now on we are calling our Raw Chef Level 1 Weekend Program our “Advanced” Raw Chef Level 1 program. Students will continue to get a high level of hands on experience and instruction — enjoying such amazing recipes as raw bacon and pancakes, raw brownies, raw sweet potato soup, raw corn chowder, amazing varieties of kale chips and dozens of other fantastic recipes created by Creative Health Institute staff and interns.

Here’s what some of our graduates had to say about the Advanced Raw Chef Level 1 experience:

“Excellent class. There is nothing like the intrinsic value this food brings to your life, health and well being.” ~ Mark

“There was a wonderful variety of foods that I learned to prepare. The class taught me how to create good and amazing live food. There were great tips on how to use the knives, seasonings and sprouts! I believe my favorite thing was all the hands on — actually tackling the recipes myself. Also, having the ability to ask questions directly to a Master Chef! I made good friends, found like-minded people as well as encouragement. You can’t get any better than that!”

~ Juliane

“There is a very inviting and family-like environment here at CHI, caring individuals who want to help us heal physically, mentally and spiritually. CHI is a community not an institute and they extend their love and knowledge to everyone… Even after this experience, I know that I have become a part of this family and I am ever so grateful and forever changed.” ~ Christine

Our next Advanced Raw Chef Level 1 Class starts April 29. Call or e-mail us today to reserve your place. info@creativehealthinstitute.com or 866-426-1213
