“Ayurveda contains the secrets not only for healing the individual but also for uplifting society, all creatures and the planet itself.” – David Frawley
Why Choose a Spring Cleanse Retreat?
Homeostasis is our innate ability to navigate the physical, mental and emotional stressors of life. It’s nature’s way of restoring balance, inside and out.
When experiencing fatigue, depression, congestion, foggy head, anxiety, seasonal allergies, feeling overworked or under loved, feeling run down or run over, our homeostatis is most definitely compromised, and happy healthy living is not within our reach..
A spring cleanse retreat focuses on:
- Cellular detoxification
- Mindful dietary choices
- Holistic rejuvenation
In just five days, this Ayurvedic cleanse opens the door to improved health, wellness, and graceful aging.
“The cleanse is a meticulous program to help clear out not only physical level toxins, but a subtle level of emotional and mental toxins that prevented me from living my life fully.”
~ Don
