While it may look like a fad diet – no grains, no alcohol, no milk, no sugar (and no fun) – a detox is far from a quick fix for weight loss. The purpose of any detox plan is to take the load off the organs that detoxify the body – the liver, kidneys and bowel – while at the same time supporting and improving their performance. If you want to fast track your health, give your body a break, or just want to detox diet for a short time, follow this safe and do-able seven-day program.

What to do Check your diary and mark a week where you have a clean break from functions or events that might derail your detox, such as weddings, birthdays or special occasion meals. Some people may experience a 'cleansing' reaction in the first few days of detox, including headaches or loose bowel movements. This is due to the sudden withdrawal of certain foods, in addition to stimulation of detoxifying organs. These symptoms should subside in 24 to 48 hours.

D e t ox p l a n f o r t h e n ex t s eve n d a y s 1. Morning lemon juice: This is an oldie but a goodie to kick start the digestion and cleanse the system. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon in a cup of hot water. Drink first thing in the morning before breakfast.

2. Exercise: During detox aim to exercise for one hour daily. And not just any exercise – something that makes you pant and puff and raise a sweat like a spin class, jog along the beach, walking uphill, hot yoga or boxing. Vigorous exercise increases lymph flow and circulation to help sweat out toxins.

3. Raw foods: Aim to cut out the cooking process and eat mainly raw foods.

Raw foods contain more nutrients and enzymes. Try adding fresh sprouts to a salad daily.

4. Detox the mind: While you're detoxing the body, its good to clear the clutter from the mind too. Aim for 15 minutes of meditation per day. If you don't know how to meditate, try belly breathing. Start by placing hands palm down on your lower belly. Breathe in through your nose, counting slowly to 3 or 4 counts. Feel your tummy rise with the breath. Breathe out just as slowly, allowing the belly to drop. Do this for 15 minutes daily.

5. Drink: Aim to drink three litres of fluid daily. This will help move the lymph and support kidney detoxification. Choose from pure spring water, fresh vegetable juice and herbal detox teas. Or make your own brew by mixing one or a combination of Dandelion root and nettle, cleavers, calendula, burdock and red clover. Add one teaspoon of the dried herbs to a cup of boiling water. Leave to steep for five minutes, strain and drink.

6. Body brushing: Doing this daily will support circulation and increase skin detoxification. Using a loofah or natural fibre body brush, brush the skin with firm circular strokes before you step into the shower. Start from the feet and hands, moving up the legs and towards the arms, avoiding the delicate area of throat and face, and any rash or sore spots. Then jump in the shower. Finish your shower with a one-minute burst cold water which brings the blood circulation to the skin.

7. Chew: Aim to chew each mouthful of food 10 to 12 times before swallowing.

Bringing mindfulness to mealtimes improves digestion, allowing you to feel a sense of fullness without a need to overeat.

Note: Don't detox if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, elderly, have high blood pressure, are underweight or against your health practitioner's recommendation.

Elefsina Explore the Eleusinian Mysteries The settlement of Eleusis was founded in ca. 2000 B.C. on the slopes of the hill, and during the Mycenaean period it developed into a large fortified settlement, mostly due to its strategic position.

During this period the cult of Demeter was introduced, as the worship of a deity connected to nature and the growing of cereals.

The continuity of Demeter’s cult is attested until Roman times, by the erection of successive temples on the east side of the hill.

In

the 8th century B.C. the sanctuary aquired a panhellenic character, and in the time of Solon, the Eleusinian Mysteries were established as one of the most important Athenian festivals. During the tyranny of Peisitratos the sanctuary and the settlement were enclosed with a massive fortification wall reinforced with towers. Splendid buildings were erected during the Classical and Roman periods, but with the spread of Christianity and especially after the invasion of the Ostrogoths, the sanctuary was abandoned.

The systematic excavations of the Eleusinian sanctuary started at the end of the 19th century and continued in the beginning of the 20th century, by the Athens Archaeological Society, under the direction of the archaeologists and Ephors of Antiquities, D. Philias (1882-1892) and A. Skias (18941907). Between 1917 and 1930 excavations were conducted by K. Kourouniotes, Ephor of Antiquities, and later, from the 1930’s until the 1960’s, the investigation of the site was continued and completed by K. Kourouniotes, G. Mylonas, and J. Travlos.

The finds are housed in the museum of Eleusis and the National Archaeological Museum.

The most important monuments of the site are: Sacred Court. It was the gathering place of the pilgrims and marked the end of the Sacred Way, which led to Eleusis from Athens. It contained the “Eschara”, a structure dated to the 8th-2nd centuries B.C., with altars for the offerings to the goddesses, and the temple of Artemis Propylaea, dated to the 2nd century A.D. Greater Propylaea. Doric propylon, a close copy of the central section of the Prolpylaea

on the Athenian Acropolis, which were designed by Mnesikles. Dated to the second half of the 2nd century A.D. Lesser Propylaea. Internal Ionic propylon, dedicated to the goddess by Appius Claudius Pulcher in 54 B.C. The Telesterion. Large square hall with six entrances, two on each of the three sides, and eight tiers of seats along all of the four sides, where the initiates sat (only their foundations are preserved today). The centre of the hall was occupied by the “megaron”, the adyton of the Eleusenian cult, where only the hierophantes (the high priest) was allowed to enter in order to perform the mysteric rites.

Several architectural phases are distinguished in the building, dated from the 5th century B.C. until the 2nd century A.D. Triumphal Arches. They are Roman reproductions of Hadrian’s Arch in Athens, built after A.D. 129.

Callichoron Well. According to the Homeric Hymn, here rested Demeter, when she first came to Eleusis. Around this well the Eleusinian women performed dances during the ceremony in honor of the goddess. Dated to the first half of the 5th century B.C. Ploutoneion. Sacred retaining wall around a cave where, according to tradition, Plouto, the god of the Underwolrd, appeared.

A representation of the annual return of Persephone on earth took place here. Dated between the second half of the 6th and the 4th century B.C. The Mycenaean Megaron. Part of foundations belonging to a rectangular temple with two columns on the longitudinal axis.

Τhe Acropolis Museum joins forces with the Onassis Foundation, an organization which has been contributing to Culture and Education for 42 years, in a rare and significant partnership. The end result is co-staging in Athens the “εmotions” exhibition, which scored such a huge success at the Onassis Cultural Center, New York.

"Emotions" is a narrative exhibition which sheds light on the unseen world of emotions in the personal, social and political life of antiquity. To view the exhibition is to embark on a tumultuous voyage into the soul of Man, whose passions are here expressed through the filter of ancient art. Exhibits from the world's greatest museums tell stories of emotions in ancient Greek art through the gaze of the Acropolis Museum. Many of the exhibits are unique art-works which are on display in Greece for the first time. Many more from Greek museums are basking in the light of international interest for the first time.

In partnership with the composer’s son, Giorgos Hadjidakis and the Manos Hadjidakis Archive, the Greek National Opera has devised a 3-year cycle of performances during which it will present wellknown and hitherto unpublished works of the iconic Greek composer, whose work and attitude to life left a deep imprint on modern Greek culture.

The Hadjidakis Cycle, which is the first comprehensive tribute to the great composer’s works, will run in the 2017/18, 2018/19, 2019/20 artistic periods at Greek National Opera venues and elsewhere. The Greek National Opera will attempt to piece together forgotten works, and to present for the very first time works which were never published.

But is it possible for someone to improve his voice?

Yes of course. But first it is important to realize the benefits of this change: Because improving one's voice, at the same time improves one's communication and positive influence, making him/her more productive and more efficient both in personal and professional environment.

A life changing decision.

Beyond that, improving ones speech can lead to a journey of personal change and transformation: Through a series of interactive technics and realizations, the trainee learn how breathing mechanism works, will be able to "draw from deep" and "reprogram" the body with new thoughts and beliefs, as the whole substance will now support the wording and not just the neck and the mind.

Voice specialist Nina Kaloutsa is an opera graduate and master holder from The Tchaikovsky Moscow State Conservatory. Over the 6 past years hundreds of individuals and business executives have improved their speaking and communication skills with her VOICE & SUCCESS seminars. Whether your needs are for vocal therapy, maintenance, rehabilitation or improvement of communication, she is definitely the right person to seek for advice and will help you get the best for your voice.

The Hadjidakis Cycle kicks off with a presentation of two of the composer’s outstanding song cycles: the Era of Melissanthi, Magnus Eroticus, and the work The Wayfarer, the drunken girl and Alcibiades.

The Wayfarer, the drunken girl and Alcibiades is a song cycle in a theatrical form, with lyrics by Manos Eleftheriou and by the composer himself, for two female and two male voices, a small orchestra, dancers and actors. Its premiere was on December 13, 1973 at the art venue Polytropo in Plaka.

The Era of Melissanthi is a musical autobiography based on the composer’s poems which Hadjidakis dedicated to his mother’s memory. It is a cantata for a mature female voice, two young male voices, a mixed and children’s chorus, chamber orchestra and military band, where the bouzouki stars as the primary instrument.

Magnus Eroticus is a song cycle for two voices, mixed chorus and a string and plucked instrument ensemble, which sets the poetry of Odysseas Elytis, Nikos Gatsos, Constantine Cavafy, Dionysios Solomos, Sappho, Myrtiotissa, Giorgos Sarantaris, Pantelis Prevelakis, Georgios Hortatsis and Solomon to music.

Greek delicatessens Get to know greek gastronomy and the hidden treasures of Greece Miran Originating from Caesarea of Cappadocia, the Miran Kourounlian family settled in Piraeus in 1922 and took up with the only craft they knew well. Miran Kouroumlian started making pasturma and soujouk in the traditional Armernian way he knew very well.

Today the delicatessen shop and the workshop are run by the third generation of sausage makers, Miran and Krikor Kourounlian who, with their knowledge have organized the MIRAN company so that it remains a traditional workshop that aims at quality, not quantity.

Further, recently we renovated our shop in Evripidou Street, creating an environment that "splices" ideally tradition with modern elements and offers many Greek products like sausages, cheeses of small Greek workshops. At the same time it is the first eco shop in Greece with a specially made hanging garden at its front where we cultivate herbs and spices. Our visitors have the opportunity, apart from their shopping to also taste our delicacies that we have created for this purpose. w w w. m i r a n .g r

Ta Karamanlidika tou Fani A fairly new edition to the food scene in Athens, Ta Karamanlidika tou Fani a is a charcuterie and ‘mezetzidiko’ that has won the hearts of locals and visitors. Its menu is built around artisanal cold meats such as ‘pastourmas’, a tasty cold cut that is fragrant and full of flavour and inspired by the indigenous people of Karaman and Cappadoccia in central Anatolia.

The menu is designed to share and consists of fresh organic ingredients paired with the highest quality meats. Highlights include gourmet sausages, pies with pastourmas, ‘Sachanaki Karamanlidiko’ with bio-organic eggs. An extensive list of Greek wines and traditional spirits are also on offer such as Retsina and Tsipouro from Naousa.

Set in a restored neo-classical building, along one of the oldest mercantile streets in Athens. A well stocked grocery will inspire you to take home products that are sourced from all over Greece, including cherry liqueurs and olive oils from Laconias. It will be one of the best and unique eating experiences you’ll have in Athens.

Kostarelos Three generations of cheesemaking. Always true to our values, we have been producing our fine cheese and dairy in our own facilities for three generations. When we began our cheesemaking back in 1937 all we had was good quality milk and a handful of traditional recipes; the basic two elements that until today form the foundation of our products’ exceptional taste. Taking the above a step further, we constantly search for new ideas, bringing in our creativity and technical background, to create high quality, authentic flavours. At the same time we seek and form long-term relationships and collaborations with farmers and small Greek artisan producers, who share our philosophy. This is how we bring the best products at your table! w w w. k o s t a r e l o s .g r
