Plenty of my mates from the 70's should be doing this program. It will feel you've just lost 20 years off your age. Sure it works out about $100 a day. But what "tropical resort" gives life back to you - alertness aliveness vitality virility. Worth every cent!
I better get back to my Lash!

I think one could very well do a safer detox program with a holistic doctor. The purif data is quite ground breaking and is a good basis for further perfecting its delivery. But it is definitely NOT a one size fits all deal.

The cons aren't really cons they are logistics to work out. Most people must do the Purification Rdn before they can do any other levels of counselling above this step.

The purification rundown is certainly not “wellness”, but for me it did a lot. When I had finished the program after about 4 weeks, I was feeling very much more energetic and alive. It was like coming out of the fog mentally. I could suddenly think better, study much better and the improvement of my perceptions was startling; I experienced a remarkable difference – it was like coming out of the fog and having mental clarity suddenly.

I did this at Saint Hill as soon as the sauna opened there. There were about 20 naked men squashed into the male sauna. After several weeks of that I certainly got flat on naked male bodies. It also made a nice change from working on post all the time.
Physically, I felt much cleaner after completing it. The most significant change I noticed was that drinking coffee no longer gave me a headache. I don't know why it should have had that result, but it did.
The New OT4 HCOB explains in great detail why the Purif should be considered to be a spiritual rehabilitation program and not a physical one, as it would appear to almost anyone. When I first saw that HCOB I thought, "Wow, this would make *amazing* Purif promo, although it will never happen." Now, I think the explanation in that HCOB is ridiculous.
Healthwise I have read much about the dangers of the extreme doses of vitamins required if you are on the program for any length of time (over a month?), especially niacin causing liver damage, and I have met someone who was on the Purif for a year and blames it for her chronic endocrine troubles. So if you insist on doing it "per the book," just make sure the medical doctor associated with your Purif delivery knows his stuff.

This was an amazing program for me. I had been using drugs for a very long time almost every drug known to man, but had quit on my own, but would get flash backs, feel sluggish, no energy and dull and mis-emotional from time to time. I heard about this program and that what it does is remove the bad fat stored in the body with good fat. That all drugs whether they are street or medical drugs are poisons and a bit of them can and do lodge in the fat tissue of the body.
And getting rid of them can give a person a new lease on life. Mr hubbard invented this program and I am here to tell you WOW!!!!!!! I started the program when it was first released to the public in I believe around 1978.
The program works like this:
I started exercising a bit to get the blood flowing and then took a bunch of vitamins and some kind of all blend oil and then with another person who they call a twin who was also doing the program we would pair up and sit in this dry sauna for hours not all at one time as you start sweating and it gets so hot you have to come out and cool down, but then go back in and sweat some more. You are totally supervised as well during this program with that supervisor being nearby.
The whole idea is to sweat out all the drugs street, medical, and toxins from the body and with all the vits and oil replaces the bad fat with good fat. The program takes as long as it takes and the time spent in the sauna is different for each person, but I will tell you that when I was done I knew I was done big time. It was like I was reborn. I felt like a million dollars. I had enormous amounts of energy, my vision had improved beyond belief and my body felt just squeaky clean. It was the greatest thing I have ever done for my body and as a result spiritually I was flying feeling just terrific. I highly recommend this program for anyone and everyone who has ever taken any kind of drugs medical or street wise and or getting rid of all the toxins in the body.. Thank you Mr. Hubbard for this gift to mankind. The drugs are gone from my body and I feel like a million bucks.
Love Peace and Axle Grease,
Tom Brown

When I did my Purif, as they call it, I had only stopped a period of drug use (mostly marijuana) only about 6 months previously. I knew I was not as aware at that point as I had been in my years prior. I could feel the "wooden", dulled perceptions that my drug use had left me.
About 3 weeks into this VERY intense program, I was blown away at how vivid colors were appearing and how ALIVE I felt.
You need to really organize your entire life around this program for a period of time. But if you have previous drug use that you know is dragging you down, this program can really bring you back up.

I noticed that there were a number of deviations from how the program was meant to be administered, according to Scientology's actual prescripts. The unavailability of twins (partners who are meant to do the program with you) was an issue. After I passed out, the staff seemed frightened, and did not know how to deal with it. I gained the impression they really did not know what they were doing. As I was new to services at Scientology organizations, I was quite bewildered by the lack of confidence of the staff. After the program, I went to see a medical doctor for a check up, and I was given some medication to correct some imbalances, and I felt better after that again.
