Ayurveda Home Cleanse & Detox

Authentic cleanses for the

Ayurveda—the “science of life”—is a natural system of medicine that originated in India more than 5,000 years ago. Ayurveda emphasizes prevention of disease and good health maintenance through lifestyle practices such as seasonal cleansing, massage, meditation, yoga, diet, and herbal treatments and therapies. It recognizes that each of us is unique, and that by understanding that uniqueness and applying basic principles and practices that address all aspects of life—mind, body, and soul—we can live a life of balance, joy, and well-being.

One of the most important practices in Ayurveda is the seasonal cleanse. This serves to help preserve and restore your health by drawing out and eliminating toxins and excess vita, pitta, and kapha from the tissues and digestive tract. A guided home cleanse from the Art of Living Retreat Center is a great way to experience the power and transformation of Ayurveda.

Why cleanse?

Greater Energy

What lowers your energy level? Is it the cumulative buildup over time of stress, tension and worry? Or wear and tear on the body? Cleansing helps to lighten the body’s load by re-igniting your energy from within. As you strengthen your internal capacity and clear out accumulated blockages, you naturally begin to feel more energetic and more alive.

Light Body, Clear Mind

The feeling of lightness afterward surprises many. This feeling is not limited to physical weight-loss — which also happens — but that lasting sense of lightness and clarity, which comes from true cleansing. An Ayurvedic cleanse is an authentic clean; it is neither a recent innovation or a new age fad. Like yoga, this ancient practice has stood the test of time for thousands of years.

Pain Management

Many people cleanse to relieve chronic pain. One participant recently shared with us, “This is the first time in three years that I’ve woken up pain free.” The combination of treatments, food, and herbal supplements works to help manage pain by cleansing your system at a deep level, restoring balance.

Personal Approach

Because Ayurveda acknowledges that every body is different, our cleanses are completely customized to your unique needs. Our Ayurveda experts work with you to first understand your body type and where you are right now in order to take your cleanse in the best direction.

Authentic

Ayurveda is as ancient as yoga and has a rich heritage of wellness. Additionally, Shankara is associated with one of the top Ayurveda research hospitals and colleges of Ayurveda in India. This strong link that we preserve to ancient and current practices allows us to offer you treatments that draw on an authentic tradition of wellness.

Testimonials

After completing the Happiness program, Silence Retreat and Sahaj Samadhi all within a month, it felt only natural that my next step would be to do the Ayurveda Home Cleanse. Each program left me feeling better and more grateful in my body, mind and spirit.

I recently did the at home Kichari cleanse and had great success! Sujata Shah is very knowledgeable and was able to accurately assess my dosha type and imbalances and put together the exact right cleanse kit for me. All of the ingredients and items needed for the cleanse (other than just some quick shopping for vegetables) were included which made it super easy. I am not a cook, but the kichari was easy to make and actually quite delicious. I also did the pre-cleanse for 5 days cutting out sugar, meat and caffeine which helped prepare my body. Overall I lost 8 lbs and I feel so much lighter all over. I have more energy than I have had in years and my blood pressure is back down to normal. I also slept like a rock during the cleanse days. I highly recommend this at home cleanse as a perfect way to reset from my stagnation and poor eating choices during the COVID quarantine.

I feel lighter, yet more grounded. I've gained more mental clarity about situations that need correcting and the positive things I have to be grateful for in my life.

I had a great experience with my cleanse. I didn't know what to expect but it was nice getting an education along the way. I feel totally different, I feel lighter, more relaxed, and calm. I 've also learned new practices to include in my routine - Lauren H

I enjoyed the experience completely and hope to do the Cleanse again. I feel more grounded, my face looks brighter, and I feel rejuvenated
