We are combining a 10-Day Detox protocol along with daily educational sessions on how various inputs affect your cell resiliency and health, with tools to improve and increase those inputs.
We will begin each day with intention while practicing “The Miracle Morning” on the dock and end each day with informal chats over dinner and/or patio bonfires. Highs this time of year in Minnesota will be in the mid-seventies; so lake activities will still be enjoyable with cool evenings to enjoy bonfires or a soak in the spa or a detoxifying dry sauna.
Additional Details
You will start your guided 10-Day Detox via Zoom 3 days before the retreat.
- Days 4-7 of the detox are the hardest; at which point you will be supported by Dr. Brossfield and Dr. Luetmer as well as peer support from other retreat attendees. We will finish out the week reintroducing a wider variety of foods as the detox protocol becomes more relaxed.
- All the right foods will be prepared by our in-house chef and sourced from our organic garden and other trusted sources including local whitefish (walleye & crappie).
- Enjoy the lake between educational sessions. Whether you are in the mood for boat cruises, jet-skiing, water volleyball, a refreshing swim, or simply soaking in the view, Dr. Luetmer’s husband, Ron, will ensure you are set up to enjoy Lake Minnewaska to its fullest. We can also arrange for a guided afternoon of fishing for anyone interested in landing a walleye or two, our famed Minnesota State Fish.
This is a great opportunity to experience a physician-led health-transforming retreat. We know that the health advice out there is confusing and often contradictory. In addition, many give protocols based on a single or few factors alone, which can be more harmful than helpful.

Most people who have completed the 10-Day Detox will say the hardest part of making it successful is buying the correct ingredients and preparing meals that both adhere to the detox protocol and taste good. The goal of this retreat is to combine the “Total Resiliency” education and experience with a detox – allowing us to do all the food preparation so all you need to do is participate. Dr. Luetmer, Dr, Brossfield and Ron are designing a menu that not only closely adheres to the strict protocols of the 10-day detox but also explodes with flavor. Almost all of the vegetables for the meals will be sourced from our organic garden since September is prime harvest season. Other ingredients, such as Minnesota walleye and crappies, will be sourced locally while wild line-caught Alaskan halibut and salmon will be sourced by trusted suppliers. Doing the detox does not mean you should spend 10 days feeling hungry! - Educational Materials
You will be provided with a binder of educational materials that complements each day’s session. Past attendees have found this to be an invaluable asset as they take home their individual action plans to make lifestyle changes post retreat. - Lake Excursions
Lake Minnewaska is in the heart of the “Land of 10,000 Lakes” that is Minnesota’s claim to fame. As the 13th largest lake in Minnesota, Minnewaska provides plenty of wet real estate to play on. A pontoon boat, jet ski, kayaks, canoe, and floaties will be at your disposal all week. Optional guided fishing will also be available. For those of you who have not experienced a Minnesota lake, you are in for a treat. We will cap the week off with a sunset cruise aboard the “Lady Lakeside”, a 40-person capacity double decker cruising boat, so our small group will have plenty of space to roam around or just sit back and enjoy the ride. - 7 Nights Lodging at The Grandstay Hotel & Suites
The Grandstay is a mile down the road from the Luetmer Property. While the Luetmer property is plenty spacious to host the group with classroom and dining space and plenty of indoor and outdoor lounging and reflection spaces, it does not have an adequate number of bedrooms to host the group. The Grandstay is relatively new, clean and comfortable and comparable to a Courtyard or Country Inn and Suites. The hotel is located a mile down Lakeshore Drive from the Luetmer’s and the shuttle service will run back and forth. The entire retreat will take place at the Luetmer’s so we booked the Grandstay primarily for sleeping rooms. - Member Garden Party
We will be hosting our garden party for Dr. Luetmer’s member patients Saturday afternoon of the retreat. This is a fun 3-4 hour event where members who share an enthusiasm for improving their health to have a chance to meet and support each other, have a little fun, and enjoy garden produce both from our garden and the gardens of our members. This should be great event to have a larger gathering where you might meet others who share the similar health goals and/or challenges that you are working on.

Meet Ron, Your "Fun Coordinator", Travel Agent, Gardener, and Chef
Hi, I’m Ron… known more as “Dr. Stacey’s Husband” than any other title!
I absolutely love lake life in Minnesota and enjoy sharing what our little corner of the world has to offer. Dr. Luetmer, Dr, Brossfield and I are designing a menu that not only closely adheres to the strict protocols of the 10-day detox but also explodes with flavor. Almost all of the vegetables for the meals will be sourced from our organic garden since September is prime harvest season. Other ingredients, such as Minnesota walleye and crappies will be sourced locally while wild Alaskan halibut and salmon will be sourced by trusted suppliers.
During your stay at the retreat, I can coordinate boating excursions as well as other ways to enjoy the lake, including fishing for our famed Lake Minnewaska Walleye!
