Program

The ultimate mind-body healing experience, not only for detoxifying the body but also for strengthening the immune system and restoring balance and well-being.

Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of natural healing, considers detoxing a normal and natural way to sustain health and energy. Unlike aggressive cleanses or fasting diets, an Ayurvedic detox, or Shodhana, is a nourishing, gentle process with the intention to rebalance by eliminating Ama—toxins created through poor digestion, stress, ill-digestion food combinations, and environmental influences. Instead of a general system, Ayurveda individualizes detoxifying based on your Dosha (Vata, Pitta, Kapha), digestive capacity (Agni), and current health status. It is not merely cleansing of the body but also purity of mind and spirit.

Program Overview

Why Detox? Ayurvedic View Ayurveda says toxins piles up because of :

• Poor digestion
• Insufficient diet
• Chaotic eating habit
• Emotional tension
• Contact with the outside world.

This poisonous accumulation (Ama) inhibits the functions of the body and leads to weakness, indigestion, pale complexion, mood disorder, and long-term disease.

A seasonal purification enhances:

• Improved digestion (Agni)
• Increased energy levels
• Glowing complexion and eyes
• Emotional calmness
• Improved sleep
• Healthy immune system ---

Ayurvedic Cleansing Basics

• Ama (Toxins): Heavy, sticky material blocking pathways in the body.
• Agni (Digestive Fire): Building Agni has the natural effect of igniting and removing toxins.
• Dinacharya (Daily Routine): Natural rhythm supports cleansing.
• Ahara (Diet): Warm, light, and easy-to-digest foods facilitate digestion and cleansing.
• Vihara (Lifestyle): Gentle yoga, breathing, meditation, and relaxation are needed.
• Ojas (Vital Essence): A detox also serves to cultivate and revitalize Ojas—the essence of immunity, vitality, and bliss.

An Ayurvedic cleanse is not deprivation, but profound nourishment, simplicity, and coming back into balance. Even a brief 3–7 days cleanse can stir your body's own intelligence to heal and renew
