The We Care Philosophy

At We Care we base our programs on the theory that most people are taking on an excess amount of toxins through today's diet which is composed of processed foods with many additives and preservatives. These toxins tend to be difficult to breakdown and build up in the colon where they have long lasting negative effects on one's health and contribute to disease. These effects include low energy, digestive problems, decreased mental alertness, fatigue and weight gain. Our approach at We Care is to cleanse the system (specifically the large intestines and colon) of these toxins which have accumulated over the years through use of a natural all liquid diet.

The We Care Mission

We are a holistic fasting and spirtual retreat, providing unique programs designed for personal transformation, enahancing body, mind and spirit in a serene desert oasis.

Our experienced team is dedicated to:

  • The highest quality of service and products

  • Integrity, excellence and compassion

  • A comfortable and safe environment combining ancient and modern techniques and tools

  • Inspiring well being through education and practice

Liquid Diet

The We Care liquid diet is rich in nutrients and offers many specific ingredients to address flushing various organs including the liver and kidneys which act as filtering systems for the body. As the body easily accepts the natural liquid diet, it allows the digestive system to utilize more energy in cleaning out the life long accumulated waste products and toxins. This process is accelerate through the use of colonics: a safe, effective measure for accelerating the emptying and cleaning of the colon and large intestine.

Some of the specific products used as part of the We Care natural liquid diet include Kyogreen, Spirulina, Wheat Grass, Barley, Acidophilus, freshly squeezed vegetable juice, lemon water, enzymes, liver and kidney teas and blood purifying tea.

Cleansing Body Treatments

To facilitate the cleansing process, we also offer lymphatic massage, which keeps the lymphatic fluid flowing. The lymphatic system is a cleansing mechanism of the body. Also several of the body treatments offered at We Care accelerate the cleansing process through various releases in manual therapy which can relieve blockages from the body's energy flow. These treatments include reflexology, accupressure, digestive release, stone massage and raindrop therapy. Furthermore, there are specific body scrubs directed at opening the clogged pores and removing the dead skin allowing the sweat glands to work more effectively in eliminating toxins.

Psychological and Spiritual Balancing


It has been shown that the body's ability to eliminate, cleanse and maintain proper balance can be disrupted through problems in an individual's psychological or spiritual state. The We Care program offers a variety of classes and experiences directed at balancing the individual psychologically and spiritually including yoga, meditation, breath work, desert walks, a labyrinth and a medicine wheel among others. All of these aspects of the program compliment each other to obtain optimal results in one's overall health including nutritional and psycho spiritual balance.

Question: Who should go to We Care?

We Care is for all individuals interested in improving their overall health except for pregnant or breast feeding women.

How long is the recommended stay at We Care?

The We Care liquid cleanse diet program is recommended as long as one could stay, up to three or four weeks. Although a one week program at We Care does result in a dramatic improvement in overall health and well being due to the special integrated and complimentary nature of the comprehensive We Care program. This can be compared to a three-week cleanse or detox fast in another setting. Also offered is a three-day weekend program where one can experience a shortened program and still see considerable changes including improved energy and sense of well being. Most individuals who attend a three-day program later partake in programs of one to three weeks. The majority of We Care clients partake in the on-site program on a regular basis form one to four times per year to help with maintenance of their health and lifestyle changes as well as to destress in the natural healing environment of Desert hot Springs.
