Pete Evans Fasting Retreat at Evolve Sanctuary Byron Bay

Pete Evans Fasting Retreat at Evolve Sanctuary Byron Bay

Scrolling TikTok with a celery juice in hand is not detoxing, it is digital denial. The real reset is five days of stillness and nourishment at Evolve Sanctuary, tucked deep in the Byron hinterland beneath Wollumbin Mount Warning. This is where you trade caffeine for clarity, WiFi for waterfalls, and just one more email for a magnesium float under the stars.

Fasting Done Right

Under Pete Evans’ guidance, guests fast on a rotation of cold pressed juices, healing broths and pristine spring water designed to spark autophagy, lighten the liver and calm the mind.

Expect To:

  • Learn fasting fundamentals and daily protocols

  • Reconnect to natural hunger and energy rhythms

  • Experience guided movement, meditation and sauna sessions

  • Break your fast with mineral rich broths and local produce
