A 40-day reset and renewal, held by both founders
Reset-40
The Alchemical Month of Renewal
One path, walked one turning at a time. By the fortieth day, the aim is quiet and whole: to live by your own rhythm again, at home in your body and your kitchen, no longer running yourself from a list.
Guided by Dr. Carina Lopez, Holistic Doctor, and Sakis Stamou, Chef and Alchemist. Member contribution $1,497.
Why forty days
In the old alchemical tradition, forty days is the philosophical month: long enough for something to truly change its nature, gentle enough that nothing is forced.
The same measure runs through the lineages we draw from, the Ayurvedic mandala of forty days in which a practice takes full effect, and the forty-day renewals kept across the world’s oldest traditions. A reset measured in a few rushed weeks is a trend. A full alchemical month is a renewal the body can actually keep.
The Whole Reading, doubled
Your Foundations Map revealed your inner landscape. Reset-40 is where you begin to walk it, held by both founders at once. Dr. Lopez reads the whole of you and shapes your therapeutic roadmap. Sakis translates it into nourishing, constitution-specific rhythms in the kitchen. Not two separate voices. One reading, held from both sides at once, which no practice with a single guide can offer.
The journey, walked one turning at a time
What makes this unlike anything else
One thing at a time
Forty days becomes four turnings of ten days, and each turning asks just one new practice of you, laid gently on the one before. You are never handed the whole mountain, and there is never anything to catch up on.
You watch your own becoming
At each turning we read you again and reflect back, in your own words, what has shifted in how you are living. A simple weekly Rhythm Check, yours to keep, lets you feel the rhythm becoming your own.
You are never alone between sessions
Unlimited texting, weekly guidance, and founders who reach for you before you drift. Being held is the whole point.
You belong to something
Reset-40 opens the door to The Hearth, our members-only gathering, where you walk alongside others being read the same way.
Transformation, in its own time
The forty-day journey
In alchemy the Great Work moves through four stages. Your month follows the same arc.
Turning I Days 1 to 10
The Arrival
The blackening, where the old rhythm loosens.
We steady the ground first, restoration before anything is cleared. Your one practice: a single morning anchor. Held by your opening reading with Dr. Lopez and your dietary reading with Sakis.
Turning II Days 11 to 20
The Grounding
The whitening, where the new base sets.
One nourishing practice from the kitchen is laid on the settled ground. A Renewal touchpoint and weekly guidance keep you steady.
Turning III Days 21 to 30
The Lightening
The brightening, where one thing is set down.
Only now, on rooted ground, do we gently set one thing down or simplify it. Never a harsh cleanse. A refinement reading with Dr. Lopez marks the turning.
Turning IV Days 31 to 40
The Rhythm Found
The reddening, where the work is made whole.
The practices weave into one rhythm you live rather than perform. We honor the month in a closing passage and name your forward pathway.
What you receive
- Three 90-minute private readings with Dr. Carina Lopez: your whole-person reading, your Personalized Renewal Roadmap, and refinement as the month turns.
- One 90-minute private session with Sakis Stamou: your Foundational Dietary Guidelines, crafted for your constitution.
- Your Reset-40 Renewal Framework: a beautifully made, turning-by-turning guide with your Weekly Rhythm Check built in.
- Your Vitalist Assessment keepsakes: your Iris and Sclera Report and Facial and Tongue Analysis, yours to keep.
- Two Renewal Q and A calls, weekly guidance and gentle accountability.
- Unlimited texting support across the full alchemical month.

- Access to The Hearth, our members-only gathering.
In all, Reset-40 holds you across seven scheduled sessions with your founders, unlimited texting for the full forty days, and your place at The Hearth: more than six hours of private, one-to-one guidance, and a steady hand in every space between.
A protocol made only for you
Nothing in Reset-40 is a template. From your reading, Dr. Lopez composes your individualized protocol recommendations: the specific rituals, dietary rhythms, and daily practices chosen for your constitution and the terrain your assessment revealed, sequenced so you receive them one at a time. At each turning your protocol is read again and refined, so what you are living is always current to who you are now.

A wholehearted yes
Reset-40 is a covenant, not a casual purchase, and it asks for your full commitment. When you enter, both founders reserve the whole of your alchemical month for you. We ask the same of you in return: your full presence for the forty days. So decide the way you would for anything that matters, carefully, and then completely. Your free Discovery Call and your Foundations Map exist for exactly this, to let you arrive at a clear and responsible yes before you begin. Once you step across the threshold, the container is continuous; it is not paused, transferred, or refunded, because it has already been reserved and begun for you.
Your two founders
Dr. Carina Lopez reads the body as a whole, in the way the older traditions did, before a person was broken into specialties and handed from one to the next. Sakis Stamou makes food and remedy as craft, in the lineage of the alchemical kitchen. They work as two because no one of them is the whole of it. One reads; one makes. That marriage is the thing they could not offer any other way.
Questions
Do I need to prepare anything?
No. Reset-40 begins from your Foundations Map, and from there we hand you one practice at a time. There is nothing to study and nothing to catch up on.
What if I have never done anything like this?
All the better. The path is built for exactly where you are, and you are accompanied at every step.
Is this medical treatment?
No. Reset-40 is offered within the private membership of the Society and is educational in nature. It does not constitute medical diagnosis or treatment.
How do I begin?
The clearest first step is your Foundations Map, so your month is built on a true reading. When you are ready to commit to the full path, reserve your place below.
