About Ayurvedic Cleansing
An ayurvedic cleanse is a digestive reset that is suggested twice a year. During the cleanse you will be resetting your digestive system by eating foods that are specific to the season and the qualities of the season.
This is a cleanse of reducing the foods that do not support you and encouraging the seasonal foods that are best for you in the current season. This also includes eating at the same time each day, having 3 meals a day, making lunch your largest meal and eating mindfully.
What you are working toward is easier digestion, less bloating and congestion, less fatigue and over-all physical and mental support. Beginning this way will be a good start on your journey to wellness and digestive health.
How to start:
-
Take a good look at what the earth is giving us in terms of foods. What vegetables and fruits to you notice that are abundant right now? These are the foods you want to include in your diet right now. You might even want to search up the foods that are local to your area and see if you can get those items at your farmers market or your local grocery store.
-
Let's look at spices. Spices not only make your food taste great, but they are also very good for digestion. There are specific spice mixes or churnas, that are better for certain seasons. One churna or spice mix you can use all year is turmeric, cumin, coriander, fennel, pink salt, black pepper.
If you are thinking you would like more support during your cleanse, check out my Let's Cleanse page and we can do it together!
It's a 10 day cleanse that can be modified to 3 or 5 or 7 if you like. I provide you with a manual, shopping list, daily planner and daily routines chart. I have also set up a WhatsApp group for support and I meet with the whole group 3 times during the 10 days so you don't feel like you are doing this alone.
I hope to see you for the next community cleanse.
