Kick start a new beginning!
There are two crucial transitions in our yearly routine, Fall and Spring. In both the Summer and Winter we accumulate excess which we really need to shed. After the winter we all crave a new diet and exercise routine to reduce the heaviness, after the summer we have an excess of heat that can exacerbate stress, sleeplessness, poor digestion, compromised immunity, rashes, anger and irritability.
In these seasons our stress load limits have all been tested and we long to feel more stable, strong and healthy again.
An Ayurvedic cleanse is gentle and fun. It works with the natural rhythms of our bodies, diet, and routine to get rid of stored mental, emotional and physical pollution.

Kitchari
Is a complete meal used in the Ayurvedic tradition to both ease and strengthen the body. It comprises of small lentils and Basmati rice, vegetables, aromatic herbs and tasty condiments. It is a light yet satisfying and easy to digest while providing all the nutrition that we need to sustain health and Sattvic feeling of wellbeing. By eating these same ingredients over 72 hours ours bodies are relived from the burden of battling digestive overload and use its energy instinctively to switch to into ‘repair’ mode; reknitting, restoring, and rejuvenating on a cellular level. This is not meant as a weight loss program, but many report an average 5lb body retention drop.
Why would you want to do a gentle food cleanse in Autumn?
We have spent all summer accumulating heat. The dry air of Autumn has a way of exacerbating the excess heat we built up over the summer. Cells start to hold onto pollution and toxic substances if they lose their juice. All this heat and dryness in the body and mind can cause poor digestion, insomnia, anxiety, constipation/diarrhea, rashes, dry scalp/skin as well as anger and irritability. The Ayurvedic Autumn Cleanse is an age old process of rehydration and oleation of the vital organs and internal tissues that are dried out.
Why would you want to do a gentle food cleanse in Spring?
During the winter months nature produces more earthy heavy and rich foods and our bodies are hard wired to store a little extra fat. No matter how diligent we are externally our blood becomes an little thicker and nutrient rich. This is hard for the heart to transport and as we move into the early months of the year we yearn for relief from heaviness. It's an inside thing!
