The Nourished Nervous System
Simple Spring Reset
Spring is a time of fresh starts and new beginnings a time of unfurling and planting seeds. It is also a time for spring cleaning your house and your body.
Cleansing diets have grown in popularity over the past few years and they can be healthy for certain constitutions or to work with certain health conditions.
Spring is Kapha season in Ayurvedic thought. Kapha is made up of earth and water and its qualities are heavy, cold, liquid, oily, static, thick, dull, sticky and gross (the opposite of subtle).
So it's a great time to bring in opposite qualities. To create more energy and lightness, clarity and warmth. This can be done through the diet or through other lifestyle adjustments.
In this episode:
- My journey with cleansing: the good, the bad and the hungry

- The beginning path of healing with Ayurvedic cleanses
