Kitchari Cleanse & Seasonal Cleansing
Clearing accumulated waste and toxicity from the tissues and the mind encourages optimal health. These days, a periodic cleansing regimen is more vital to our health than ever before. Our bodies are being asked to process a literally endless barrage of harmful inputs such as environmental toxins, processed foods, unresolved emotions, psychological stress and excessive information and stimulation. A periodic cleanse helps to clear these accumulations from the body.
What is a Kitchari Cleanse
Kitchari, which consists of basmati rice, mung beans, vegetables, oil, and spices, was specifically created by Ayurvedic sages to be the most balancing, digestible, nourishing, and complete meal possible. It is even served in Ayurvedic hospitals to basically all patients.
A Kitchari Cleanse is based on eating a mono-diet of kitchari, drinking plenty of supportive herbal teas, and triphala to support digestion, elimination, and the body’s natural detoxification process.
Because Kitchari is so simple, balancing and easily digested, a Kitchari diet helps slow the flood of harmful inputs and provides the body, mind and soul with an important opportunity to rest, recuperate, and repair themselves.
A simple 3-, 5-,10- or 20- day cleanse can help to:
Re-gain a sense of balance physically, mentally and spiritually.
Improve digestion and the strength of agni (the metabolic fire)—which are essential to optimal health.
Support the maintenance of a healthy body weight and overall health.
Nurture an improved sense of energy, vitality, and enthusiasm for life.
Foster clarity and grounded-ness.
Promote regular and balanced elimination.
Encourage a balanced sleep cycle.
Regain the keenness of our senses, which have been dulled by overly stimulating foods and lifestyle.
When?
A Kitchari cleanse can be undertaken at any time of year, whenever you feel the need to re-balance. Ayurveda also believes that a Kitchari Cleanse is especially potent at the junctions between seasons—when our bodies are ripe with a sense of transition already.
Spring and fall are traditional times to practice a seasonal cleanse.
