Save Your SPot

As the leaves begin to fall and nature prepares for stillness, our bodies also crave a shift — a gentle release of summer heat, a return to grounding rhythms, and a reconnection to our deeper inner balance. In nature, the shift from one season to the next can happen in a day, or even a few hours. The body, however, adapts much more slowly to seasonal change, taking time to clear seasonal accumulation and potential aggravation.

According to the Caraka Samhita, the ancient texts of Ayurvedic medicine, when your diet and lifestyle are not aligned with the seasons, digestive agni, physical strength, and doshic balance are affected, and the seeds of disease are sown. You can prevent these imbalances and reduce your risk of illness and/or imbalance, by eating seasonally and changing your lifestyle to align with seasonal and daily cycles.

What Sets an Ayurvedic Cleanse Apart?

Ayurvedic Cleanses are Gentle!

In Ayurveda, it's understood that when the body undergoes stress from starvation or extreme measures, its natural detoxification and repair mechanisms can become impaired. By calming the nervous system, allowing for deep rest, and providing the right foods and herbs in appropriate amounts, the body's alarm systems are turned off. This approach specifically engages the parasympathetic rest-digest-repair nervous system, crucial for profound rejuvenation.

While many trendy modern cleanses exist today, the difference between these popular methods and an Ayurvedic cleanse is significant. Modern cleanses often rely on strong herbs or powerful supplements to force healing and detoxification. In contrast, Ayurveda aims to empower the body to heal itself, avoiding reliance on pills or powders. Many contemporary cleanses employ treatments that may irritate the intestinal lining and disrupt the microbiome, addressing detoxification without considering the root cause of the body's toxicity.

How Does an Ayurvedic Cleanse Work?

Our Ayurvedic Home Cleanses are designed to rejuvenate the body's natural digestive and detox systems. We begin with an upper digestive reset, focusing on enhancing the coordinated actions of the stomach's acid production, the liver and gallbladder's bile delivery, and the small intestine and pancreas's enzyme production. This is followed by an intestinal reset to maintain a healthy microbiome, a detox for the lymphatic system, a liver cleanse, and a deep tissue detox. This particular ghee cleanse has been studied to remove pesticides and toxic PCBs from deep tissues at rates 58% and 48% higher, respectively, than those not engaging in an Ayurvedic panchakarma cleanse.

Moreover, Ayurveda acknowledges the link between stress, emotions, and poor breathing habits, which can affect every organ and system in the body. As such, we include rejuvenating practices and breathwork to help you feel your best.
