Re-set and bounce into spring!

In only 5 days you’ll feel aligned with nature’s cycles, clearer, healthier and renewed
This spring, a new option to go deeper over 7 days, 20–26 Sept

Seasonal change, heralded by the Spring equinox on September 21st, alerts our mind and bodies that we need to shift gears to keep functioning at our best.
After the excesses of winter where we are ‘stocking up’ to keep warm and nourished in all manner of ways, this is the perfect time to let go and re-fresh. No doubt the liver, gall bladder and intestinal tract all yearn for a good cleanse!

Who hasn’t gained a little more around the waist from rich, heavy and grounding food so necessary during winter. 

Join our expanding Dru Ayurveda community in our popular biannual equinox 5-day cleanse,
to keep our bodies and minds functioning at their very best during this time of seasonal change..

This Spring, by popular request, we are offering the possibility for seasoned detoxers to deepen their cleanse by extending over 7 days.

 

This Spring cleanse will be great for you if you are feeling:

  • a little bit heavy and sluggish after winter or too close to the fridge while working from home
  • ready for a spring clean and energy boost after winter hibernation
  • signs of lymphatic congestion—water retention or sinus congestion
  • bloating, wind, constipation, heartburn, acid reflux, diarrhea  or constipation
  • generalised aches and pains
  • stiff joints
  • weight gain
  • mild fatigue
  • lack of mental clarity
  • irregular or impaired appetite

 

The 5 or 7 day Dru Ayurveda cleanse is for you if you:

  • are ready to release yourself from craving unhealthy unseasonal foods
  • are committed to prioritising your health for 5 or 7 days
  • are self-directed with self-discipline to follow the detox menus and program on your own
    Don't worry it's easy!
  • need a programme that fits in with your family and work life
  • don't have any serious medical issues
    If you do you, can schedule a consult with either Mouli or Greg, who will tailor a full Ayurvedic health plan to meet your individual needs

Bring a friend for half price and have the fun of cooking and cleansing together!

Simple lifestyle and dietary changes, combined with specific yogic practices, self therapy and herbs can support your awareness to make positive choices for wellbeing, health and happiness.

Combining many years in hands-on health care with a qualification as an Ayurvedic Diet and Lifestyle Consultant, Greg brings a wealth of experience to helping people create a balanced approach to well-being.

By giving us the tools to understand our distinctive constitution, Ayurveda can help us to identify any areas of our health that may be out of balance. We can then put together a daily approach to diet and lifestyle to increase energy, restore vitality and bring a sense of nourished calm to life.

In consultation, Greg applies the Ayurvedic approach to nutrition, yoga practice, therapies, herbs and lifestyle to explore your specific health status or condition.

Introductory workshops

Part 1   Sunday 11 Sept, 7.30–9.15 pm—Key principles of Ayurveda

Part 2   Monday 12th Sept, 7.30–9.15 pm—The cleanse practicalities—menus, program, recipes, yoga, pranayama, lifestyle, herbs. Q&A 

The cleanse!

Going in gently, 1 day  
Diving in deeper, 1 day
Mono eating kitcheri, 1 or 3 day option 
Coming out gradually, 2 days  

Kitcheri, the nourishing, cleansing, easy to digest Ayurvedic superfood will be our staple.
It is high in protein and is extremely comforting to your digestive tract and intestinal mucosa, beneficial for intestinal repair, rejuvenation and spiritual growth!. We provide full menus for each day, with recipes for three different kitcheri's, complete with cooking videos.

In the middle days of the cleanse we mono-eat our deetox kitcheri, three meals a day. When you eat a mono diet, your body can focus the energy that normally goes towards digestion to cleansing and healing other systems.

Our meal plan is  truly transformative—for both your body’s detoxing processes and your psychological relationship to food. 

Always eat your largest serving of kitchari at midday, when your digestion is the strongest.
For dinner, eat early and eat a smaller serving. 

Full price: 5 days: $370, 7 days: $424
DPN/concession cards: 5 days: $296, 7 days: $350
50% offer for returning detoxers & Bring a friend: 5 days: $185, 7 days $239

Bottom tab 4 - details

‘It was a valuable experience for my digestion and my mind. The food and daily routines were simple to apply, and have brought a new steadiness into my heart, mind and body. A good mix of info, movement, and sharing videos and zoom sessions.’ Jane Dru Yoga and Dru Meditation teacher

‘The detox at home was so easy to follow and the food delicious. Easing into the 5 days and then easing out made the experience very doable. I didn't feel hungry very often, and when I did, I just had an extra bowl of kitcheri. Yummy!Mouli & Greg are both wonderful and supportive. Very empowering and nourishing to the soul.’ Bev retired registered nurse/social worker

‘I LOVED the five evening catch ups on zoom, the sessions were the magic ingredient… some of the most positive zoom experiences I have ever had—so heart warming. Everyone was supportive, respectful, kind and gentle with each other. The 1 hour flowed so smoothly thanks to Mouli and Greg being fabulous hosts. PERFECT!’ Kathryn life coach, counsellor & mentor

‘It was wonderfully nurturing opportunity to come back to myself. I will definitely do a detox like this with every equinox.’ Olga, yoga teacher, online chat host

‘Absolutely brilliant! If you are looking for something to help you rebalance yourself physically, bring more emotional awareness into your life, deepen your connection to your Self and others, I found the spring detox experience gave all of these things and so much more. This is the gift that keeps on giving.’
Fiona, K–12 teacher, Dru yoga instructor, home schooling mother

‘Excellent. Throughout the whole process you knew that expert support was available & readily accessible.’ Julie, Wellbeing centre and yoga tutor

‘Far exceeded my expectations. I would say it was transformative. If you are needing to reset and rejuvenate consider the Dru Ayurveda detox@home program. I thoroughly enjoyed all the delicious food, the cooking instructions, the invaluable support from the tutors and the connection with a community of like minded souls on the same journey. Thank you, thank you, thank you!’ Nicky, Dru Yoga teacher, True Equanimity Yoga

‘I have done an amapachana detox twice before but found this Dru detox was by far the best detox ever. I think the group participation, support from tutors and students made it easier and fun. The feeling of isolation and separation was minimal and knowing that there were others experiencing challenging times too was reassuring. I was inspired by fellow participants and more motivated to succeed and wanted to encourage others to cross the finishing line together. Yay we did it! Thank you so much for being a catalyst for improving lives and the planet.’ Margot, yoga and meditation teacher

‘A fabulous program to gently guide and inspire you to make gentle Ayurvedic lifestyle changes to improve your overall health and wellbeing. A fabulous opportunity to reset your life through the wisdom of Ayurveda. I highly recommend the detox program to others.’ Kathryn, life coach, counsellor & mentor
