Gerson therapy retreat Center

Dr. Laura Gertson is an award winning professional who specializes in holistic therapies and alternative medicines. Her passion is for having a successful hysterectomy, but with high hopes of not taking radiation and chemotherapy and instead retreating to The Gerson Therapy Retreat Center in Encinitas, California where she is given the all natural alternative healthcare treatment which has helped in saving so many others… including her own. Laura was a guest speaker at our events in 2021, where she shared her story of overcoming chronic diseases, her experiences with end-stage liver disease, how her discoveries and treatments have impacted her life and how the center’s programs can help others with similar ailments. In her speech she mentioned The Gerson Therapy, which she had chosen as her venue of delivery because of its gentle, nurturing and focus healing style. Laura is also the co-author of The Healthy Body, a best selling book that she relates in her book.

Laura Gertson believes strongly that we are one mind and one body. Therefore, when sickness strikes her world, it attacks her mind and body as well. Gertson believes that sickness only has one cause – a broken or depleted mind and body. She uses yoga and her own set of guided meditation techniques to reach deeper levels of healing and peace. She believes that when we allow ourselves to go into these states of mental and physical rest, we become inspired to find the courage to follow our own passions and to live life fully.

One of the main tenets of the Gerson Therapy is that we each have the power to heal ourselves through our daily choices. The center believes that by offering a variety of healing methods and therapies, cancer patients and their caregivers will gain greater insight into why a patient has cancer and what role their daily choices have played in their illness. They believe that when you decide to take a particular prescribed course of action, you are choosing how you will respond to situations. When you decide to use a particular natural therapy, such as massage, for example, you are deciding on how you will respond to an event rather than doing something automatically. In other words, one can say that this type of therapy centers on the individual’s power to choose rather than on the power of a circumstance or a disease.

Through her teachings, Laura Gertson helps her followers to take personal responsibility for healing themselves and achieving a sense of freedom from fear and anxiety. This is one of the main tenants of her books and training. People who go through Gertson Therapy retreat centers are taught to stop focusing on the past or the future and start focusing on the present. They are taught to examine their fears and to develop the courage to face them head on. Instead of focusing on the negative aspects of a situation, they learn to focus on the positive aspects of the situation.

The power of touch is fundamental in Gertson Therapy. People learn to relax because touch allows them to release tension and stress. During the therapy retreat center, you will not be allowed to touch with your hands, but instead must engage in “muscle tapping” exercises that are similar to yoga. You will also be required to do meditation, relaxation, breathing exercises, stretching, and balance exercises. These exercises help you de-stress, which in turn helps you to heal.

If you feel the Gerson Therapy method has helped to relieve some of your symptoms, it is important that you do follow some of the advice she provides in her books. Do not go into the therapy alone. It is not enough to simply hear what Gerson is saying; you must practice listening. She encourages her followers to keep a journal and share this journal with a trusted friend or loved one. By following these steps, you will be able to get the most out of the experience at a Gerson therapy retreat center.
