Supervised Program Plant-Based Healing Retreat Centers
Inspired by so many touching cases I am made aware of more and more frequently of friends and loved ones dying or suffering from chronic disease, I've finally begun to compile a list of holistic, natural healing centers/programs using primarily whole fresh live plant-based nutrition, meditation/mind-body therapy, exercise, complementary therapies to help humans learn to heal their own diseases by changing their lifestyles and making themselves well. Links and disease focus are provided. This list will expand over time...but these are the biggies I know of in and around the USA.
