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.

The cleanse program provides guided practices, resources and inspiration

All resources are on the Dru learning Hub (DLH)

Watch the introductory videos: 1. Key principles of Ayurveda. 2. The cleanse program—menus, recipes, lifestyle, herbs, yoga, pranayama, lifestyle and interactive daily forum.
Watch the cooking videos. Follow the shopping list and recipes to practice making the kitcheris and condiments. You can freeze meal sized portions to make the cleanse week flow!

Introductory live check-in, 6.00pm (AEDT)

The cleanse itself! Nightly live zoom checkins
alternating start time to accommodate WA and NZ

Going in gently and coming out gradually. 
The difference between the 5-day and 7-day cleanse is that on the 7-day cleanse we mono eat kitcheri for three days rather than one in the middle of the cleanse 
When we eat a mono diet—3 meals a day of just kitcheri—our body can focus the energy that normally goes towards digestion to cleansing and healing other systems.

Health considerations

Before you start the cleanse it is important to complete the online questionnaires:

• where are my doshas out of balance?
• health questionnaire

Please note that by booking in for this short cleanse program you agree to take full responsibility for your own health and wellbeing.

Preparing in the week before the cleanse

We have found those participants who prepare well gain the most benefits from the cleanse, as they can be relaxed and stress free during the cleanse.

Watch the pre recordings for the 2 introductory workshops:

• Part 1 explains the Ayurvedic principles behind the cleanse and why and how it works best at the time of the equinoxes.
• Part two runs through the whole program, explaining the science behind the cleansing yet nourishing diet the diet, the importance of the lifestyle routine and  yogic practices.
• Join the live pre-cleanse check-in reviewing the preparation, on Sunday 10th March at 

Check out all the resources on the DLH, print out as needed.

• order your supplements—triphala, chyawanprash and castor oil from the Dru web shop (or source locally in Indian supermarkets)
• watch the cooking videos
• shop for all your menu ingredients, practice making kitcheri and freeze meal portions for during the cleanse
• make the condiments: ginger chutney, coriander and coconut chutney, beetroot buzz so they are ready to go in your fridge.

You deserve some space...

It's important to give yourself clear, uninterrupted space for this special time!
Ideally give yourself a retreat experience for the cleanse week.
If you do need to work through the cleanse, we recommend taking a day's leave from work midway through the cleanse, on the mono-eating day.

For the nightly live check-ins, set the hour aside. The community support is awesome for helping you stay motivated and accountable!
It's always tempting to do several things at once when you're by a screen—but we highly recommend that in this case, you create 60 minutes of uninterrupted time for yourself.
We'll be covering some very special material that we hope will make a wonderful difference in your life.

You are worth it—and you deserve it!

‘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 Dru Ayurveda cleanse is 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 cleanse 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 cleanse 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 ama pachana detox twice before but found this Dru cleanse 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
