Nick Knowles joins a diverse group including a policewoman and taxi driver to undergo an intense detox and healing programme on a Thai island paradise. Is 28 days enough to change their lives?
Kathy, battling depression, is dealing with the aftermath of her final Reiki session with Shakti and reveals that she has cried for the first time in as long as she can remember. Julian, the group cynic, has a transformational third Reiki session himself, contrary to his expectations, and to the astonishment of yoga therapist Luke, he and Nick start openly to talk of out-of-body experiences, astral projections and auras.
