Nutritious Food

Get ready for an incredible culinary experience featuring nutrient-dense dishes crafted from locally sourced Devon ingredients. The Sust! menu takes pride in offering high-quality protein to help regulate blood sugar levels and support muscle development. Our commitment to providing a nutrient-rich menu produced from UK farms means that seafood, meat, eggs, and dairy are generously incorporated into most of our dishes, alongside plentiful seasonal vegetables exploding in colour and fibre.

At Sust! we seamlessly blend the timeless wisdom of traditional cooking techniques with the contemporary trends of modern healthy cuisine. This is why you will enjoy classic foods like broths and stews, alongside refreshing vegetable juices, vibrant smoothies bursting with nutrients, and guilt-free dessert creations.

In the Sust! kitchen, our dedicated team works tirelessly in preparation for your retreat. They laboriously simmer bone broths, slow-cook hearty stews and soups, dehydrate nuts, seeds, and crackers, and carefully select the finest produce from UK farms, all of which form the core of the SUST! food philosophy.

For those who prefer plant-based options, rest assured that our meals burst with vibrant plant-based ingredients, and our Vegetarian and Vegan menu is just as satisfying and delicious.

Natalie will share her passion for Nutrition through informative talks and practical demonstrations, ensuring that simple, take-home tips and knowledge can be implemented right away at home.

Breathwork is a term for various breathing practices in which the conscious control of breathing is said to influence a persons mental, emotional, or physical state, with a therapeutic effect. Dr Sohere is a huge advocate of this simple practice as a holistic tool to help her clients to reduce stress, and she is delighted to share this powerful technique with you so that you can take it home with you.
