In this inspiring episode, Colette is joined by her client, Sónia from Flores, a small and remote island in the Azores archipelago off the coast of Portugal. After an overstimulating and energetically demanding Summer season, Sónia felt called to reset her body and mind. She chose to do the private Digestive Reset Cleanse in October, but quickly realised that the cleanse required a pace of life she wasn't accustomed to.

Together, Colette and Sónia explore:

• Her desire for a full body-mind reset and the initial reluctance to slow down her activity during the cleanse.
• How awareness slowly blossomed as she softened into the process, noticing where her resistance to rest and stillness was coming from.
• The many positive effects of the cleanse, including improved bloodwork results, a noticeable reduction in inflammation, more energy, and a sense of glowing from the inside out.
• The surprising simplicity that followed, as her new habits naturally moved onto autopilot, making her daily life feel more spacious and easeful.
• Her new 80/20 approach, which allows her to maintain balance while still enjoying life, without rigidity or overwhelm.

Sónia's story is a beautiful reminder that slowing down isn't always comfortable at first, especially for those who thrive on movement and stimulation. But with support, presence, and Ayurvedic guidance, it can become one of the most transformative medicines, offering clarity, ease, and renewed vitality.

If you've been feeling overstimulated, resistant to rest, or craving a reset, this conversation will resonate deeply and offer gentle encouragement to honour your body's needs.
