The Retreat

As the cast departs for Koh Phangan, Thailand, we begin to get to know them and the mental and physical issues they are hoping to overcome during this transformational process. Medicals underway, the resort's group of healers start to get to grips with the issues to be tackled and the cast embark on their tailored programmes, starting with a pre-cleanse, a fast and twice-daily colemas.

The group starts to bond as they get to grips with their detox schedules and go solo with their colemas for the first time. Billy relishes sharing his experiences with the group, whilst the others remain a little more tight-lipped over theirs. The cast get to grips with yoga, with mixed reactions.

It is the halfway point at the retreat and as the fast starts to become a distant memory for most, the cast start to regain their energy and take part in more physical activities. Milton, still fasting, is walking increasingly far each day and is feeling drained but positive about the possible impact of this process on his diabetes.

Kathy deals with the aftermath of her final Reiki session and reveals that she has cried for the first time in as long as she can remember.

The cast report to the hospital for their final medicals. They visit a spa to take in island views and reflect on the process so far. Nick chats with Claire, as he wrestles with the spiritual side of the retreat, he is interested to see what impact the process has had on her personally.

While, other group members, like Milton and Kathy, end their fast, they are accompanied by unexpected temptations while exploring Thailand.
