Times of Refreshing Wellness Retreat
From Injury To Recovery
Testimony of Wanda Butler
Understanding Disease
Disease is the result of an overload of impurities and an imbalanced system. This toxic, out of balance system is the primary cause of diabetes, arthritis, heart disease, lupus, cancer and every other chronic disease from which we suffer. What is desperately needed is a thorough cleansing and the reestablishing of right conditions in the body in order to achieve health. There are several channels which eliminate wastes. These include the colon, liver, kidneys, skin, and lungs, as well as the lymph and blood. As these eliminative channels are relieved of their undo burdens brought on primarily by poor life-style choices and the body is rebalanced and nourished, health is restored by the power of God. God can and will restore all to health if He is glorified by the recovery. This cleansing and restoration is just a small part of an exiting, new life-style change that can help you achieve total wellness the "Refreshing Way!"
At Times of Refreshing, we believe that prevention is better than cure. Therefore, we teach health principles from the Bible, educating people in the therapeutic value and application of the refreshing way to wellness as an integral part of the prevention and cure of disease.
Thousands today are reconsidering the less than desirable side-effects of some conventional therapies in favor of a more natural, rational, life-style approach to recovery. They realize that, if true healing is to take place, they must reverse the cause of disease, obey the laws of life that God has established and place their trust in God for healing.
As a health guest at Times of Refreshing, you will receive tender loving attention in a Christian environment combined with informative, practical, life-style education that promotes physical, mental, and spiritual health. To top it off, you will be in beautiful Appalachian Mountains of North Georgia. You will learn the step of experiencing total wellness the refreshing way!
Our wellness retreats are scheduled and last from 12 to 19 days. You can check our retreat schedule for starting dates and contact us before booking any travel tickets as reservations are based upon availability and dates are subject to change.
To accelerate the cleansing and nutritional needs of some of our guests, a liquid diet is a part of the initial regimen and may precede solid food.

As a part of our program at no extra cost, our guests have lab work done so that they can have a better grasp on their health and nutritional needs. More extensive or frequent lab work may be done for an extra costs. The blood is drawn and the lab work is done at independant clinics and / or labs not affiliated with Times of Refreshing. However, we provide transportation to and from these facilities and except as noted above, the lab work is complimentary. The lab results are faxed back to you at the Times of Refreshing fax number. These results are given to you, remain under your custodianship, and are not the property of Times of Refreshing. You are free to discuss these results with your doctor, and if you desire any input from Times of Refreshing, we can share our perspective.
