Why Cleanse

Ayurveda is an ancient system of medicine that understands health as the integration of body, mind, and spirit. At its foundation are the three doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—expressions of the five elements of life: Air, Fire, Water, Earth, and Ether. Each person carries a unique combination of these doshas, and maintaining their balance is essential to well-being.

In the rhythm of modern life, we inevitably accumulate ama, the toxins and energetic residue that arise from stress, diet, environmental exposure, and constant stimulation. Over time, this buildup weakens vitality and creates imbalance.

Cleansing provides the body and mind with the chance to pause, release, and reset. By slowing down and giving space for renewal, you support digestion, restore energy, and allow the natural intelligence of the body to re-establish harmony. The practice of cleansing nourishes clarity, strengthens resilience, and helps you return to a state of ease within yourself.

Seasonal Cleanses

As the seasons shift, the body benefits from a gentle reset. Each change brings its own qualities, and a seasonal cleanse clears excess dosha from the months before while preparing you for the season ahead. This rhythm helps maintain balance, supports metabolism, and strengthens overall vitality.

We understand that every individual’s lifestyle is unique, so each program is tailored to meet your needs. Available both in-person and online, the cleanse offers flexibility while keeping the essence of personal guidance and care.

At the heart of the program is a 7-day cleanse supported within a 21-day framework of preparation and integration. You receive two intake consultations to review your health, goals, and seasonal patterns, as well as guidance to prepare body, mind, and spirit. Custom herbal formulations, dietary recommendations, and supportive practices form the foundation of your cleanse. A final consultation at the end of the program helps you integrate what you’ve gained and continue with renewed strength.

  • The transition from autumn into early winter can feel like an energetic jolt. As the air becomes cooler and drier, Vata energy often rises, bringing restlessness, scattered thoughts, and changes in digestion. A Vata cleanse gently steadies the mind, strengthens digestive fire, and supports immunity. By calming Vata’s erratic energy, you prepare your body and spirit to enter the winter months with balance and resilience.

  • As winter lingers, the body may begin to feel heavy, sluggish, or foggy. Kapha energy can create stagnation, leaving us uninspired just as the world is beginning to awaken. A Kapha cleanse lightens that weight, clears away excess buildup, and restores vitality. With renewed clarity and energy, you can align with spring’s sense of growth and transformation.

  • The heat of summer stirs Pitta, often leading to inflammation, irritability, or burnout as activity increases. A Pitta cleanse helps release excess heat, cool the system, and restore equilibrium. By soothing Pitta’s intensity, you create the conditions for calm energy, clear focus, and sustainable vitality throughout the summer season.
