Spring Detox

Leigh Evans & Annie Kunjappy
Sun. April 7
11:30am-2:30pm

It’s Spring and it’s time to cleanse and make space for new beginnings, rebirth, and regeneration!

Based on the ancient healing practices of Chinese Medicine and Ayurveda, this Seasonal attunement workshop offers you simple tangible practices to enhance your well being. By harmonizing our inner rhythms with the energetic movements of each season, we invite a state of balance and increased vitality into our beings. The Spring Cleanse workshop will help you attune to the Season through yoga practices, dietary and lifestyle shifts designed to create a personal Spring within. These practices are tailored to awaken, cleanse, and tone the organs and meridians associated with the elements of each season.

According to Chinese Medicine, Spring is the time to attend to our livers and gallbladders. Awaken from Winter’s slumber with Leigh’s deeply detoxifying yoga sequence, breath-work, acupressure points, and lifestyle changes. Annie will offer healthy ways to cleanse the body of the effects of winter accumulation through safe fasts appropriate for your Ayurvedic body type, and delicious ways to revitalize for spring with food that nourishes and attunes your body/mind to the season. There will be tastings and recipes for spring juice tonics, detox teas that emphasize the balanced functioning of the liver and gall bladder, as well as traditional Ayurvedic Kitchari to detoxify, restore and lighten your system.
