Your body is remarkably intelligent and incredibly hard working. Day in and day out, it processes all kinds of inputs—distinguishing what's good for you from what's not, doing its best to eliminate any harmful substances alongside routine metabolic waste.

But these days, our bodies are inundated with a never-ending barrage of stressors: environmental toxins, processed foods, unresolved emotions, and psychological stress, to name a few. Inevitably, in attempting to “digest” it all, we accumulate some degree of toxicity—which, over time, can build up in the system, deposit in the tissues, and compromise our health.

Thankfully, there is something you can do to give your body a break. This is precisely the idea behind an Ayurvedic cleanse: to minimize the variety and complexity of inputs (and potential toxins) so that the body can rest, recuperate, and repair itself. And amazingly, when the deluge of damaging inputs slows, your body will immediately take advantage of the lull to do some very deep cleaning.

The practice of cleansing is considered a vital part of an Ayurvedic lifestyle, with great potential for improved energy, strength, and immunity, as well as a renewed love of life.

At its root, an Ayurvedic cleanse improves the strength of agni (the digestive fire) in the GI tract and throughout the body by resting and purifying the digestive system. Ayurveda sees balanced agni as one of the most important requirements in achieving optimal health.

Preparation-The First Step

A time to clean up your diet and lifestyle in preparation for an effective cleanse.

Active Cleansing—The Heart of the Cleanse

A period of eating a monodiet of grains, kitchari (basmati rice cooked with split mung beans), vegetables, and plenty of detoxifying fluids; the process at this stage can be complemented by a number of supportive lifestyle practices.

Reintroduction—A Buffer for Your Digestive Fire

A time to slowly diversify the diet, gradually incorporating simple, whole foods (other than kitchari) and eventually re-introducing common allergens such as wheat, dairy, soy, and nightshades.

Rejuvenation—The Final Step

This is the time to offer deep nourishment to the tissues and to promote rejuvenation throughout the system.

I just finished an Ayurveda cleanse with Heidi Grace.

My experience was far different than what I imagined.

First of all the process was far easier than I thought possible.

I learned to value my time, turn off technology for a day,

(yes I did that)
and force myself to rest.

I have a much different relationship with food preparation

and the results were so invigorating!

I looked forward to my epsom salt baths, the Kitchari meals, yoga & relaxation.

I even learned how wonderful it is to be kind to myself!

The personal sessions with Heidi Grace gave me insight and a motivational embrace!

Loved it.

What to Expect

This style of cleanse—based on a monodiet—is much less provoking than many forms of cleansing and is generally safer for a diverse range of constitutions and imbalances. That said, an Ayurvedic cleanse tends to move long-standing imbalances into circulation so that they can be eliminated. This is how our bodies repair themselves when we afford them the opportunity.

This cleanse is gentle and should not cause a great deal of discomfort. Nevertheless, it is better to be prepared for some ups and downs than to expect to feel fabulous throughout your cleanse.

You should begin to experience the deeper benefits of the cleanse within a few days to a week after completing it, if not sooner.

This process can also stir up unresolved emotions so it is important to be prepared for some emotional cleansing. It is quite common to have unexpected and somewhat unexplainable emotions crop up during a cleanse. Ideally, we would simply witness these states as they arise, creating space to honor, move, and release our feelings in a healthy way. The emotional aspects of a cleanse can make it especially important to enlist a loving support team for your cleansing process.
