Spring Ayurveda Cleanse: Align with Nature & Restore Your Vitality
Restore balance and step into spring with clarity and vitality.
*In-Person & At-Home Support
Join us for a gentle, nourishing Ayurvedic cleanse designed to support your digestion, renew your energy, and cultivate deeper self-care through daily practice (dinacharya). Over the course of 8 days, we'll clear space in our homes and bodies, nourish ourselves with simple, grounding meals, and reconnect with the rhythms of nature through Ayurvedic practices for renewal and vitality. This is not a cleanse of restriction, but one of nourishment and alignment.
Why Cleanse in Spring?
According to Ayurveda, spring is a time of release and renewal. Just as nature awakens and sheds the remnants of winter, we, too, can benefit from clearing out what no longer serves us.
A spring cleanse can help you:
✔ Boost digestion and metabolism
✔ Reduce sluggishness (excess Kapha) & restore a sense of vitality (agni)
✔ Enhance energy and mental clarity
✔ Reset your habits and cultivate intentional daily practices (dinacharya)
✔ Feel more aligned with the rhythms of nature
What’s Included?
✔ Two in person gatherings— May 1st & May 8th, 7-8:15p (details below)
✔ Daily support and guidance via email
✔ Nourishing recipes featuring kitchari, seasonal veggies, and whole foods
✔ Self-care rituals to align with each day’s elemental theme
✔ Cleanse guide with how-to’s and tips for success
All together, this will be an 8 day container, with the first few days focused on prepping and clearing for the cleanse, 3 full days of dietary cleansing, and the last few days for reflection and integration. Each day of the cleanse will be guided by one of the five elements — Ether, Air, Fire, Water, and Earth — incorporating yoga, breathwork, and Ayurvedic rituals for a complete mind-body-spirit reset. We’ll gather on the evening of March 1st @ 7p to practice, discuss Ayurvedic principles, and prepare for the cleanse. We’ll meet again on March 8th @ 7p for our closing circle and reflections.
Cleanse Schedule:
🍃 Day 1 (May 1): Air — Preparing for the Cleanse
Gather as a group this evening to explore Ayurvedic principals, discuss details of the cleanse and practices we’ll use for support. *In-Person Opening Session @ 7-8:15p
🧹 Day 2 (May 2): Ether — Clearing Space & Setting Intentions
Create space in your home and mind. Clear out processed foods and set your cleanse intention. Grocery shop and prepare your kitchen!
🔥 Day 3-5 (May 3-5): Fire — Nourishment & Transformation
Enjoy a simple, grounding mono-diet of kitchari, fresh fruits, and vegetables. Deepen your daily rituals with breathwork, movement, and mindfulness.
🍲 Day 6-7 (May 6-7): Water — Reintroducing Foods with Awareness
Gently bring back whole foods while staying attuned to your body’s responses.
🌿 Day 8 (May 8): Earth — Reflection, Integration & Continuing Your Journey
Come together to share insights, reflect on your experience, and set sustainable intentions. *In-Person Closing Session @ 7-8:15p
Who is This For?
This cleanse is for anyone seeking to:
Reset their digestion and energy
Establish a nourishing self-care routine (dinacharya)
Learn more about Ayurveda and seasonal wellness
Create a deeper sense of balance and vitality
Whether you’re new to Ayurveda or looking to deepen your understanding, this is a welcoming and supportive experience. Again, this is not a cleanse of restriction, we’ll have plenty of delicious food throughout! This is an opportunity to shed the habits and layers of winter and revitalize your day-to-day life.

Immerse yourself in the transformative power of song as Kiranjot Kaur, accompanied by Ramana Erickson (Tabla) and Sasha Mazo (Violin), leads a deeply healing Kirtan experience. This special evening blends Indian classical note singing, mantras, and the teachings of A Course in Miracles, creating a sacred space for you to connect to your divine essence through music and chant.
This sacred singing experience is a chance to heal, uplift, and re-align yourself to the frequency of love. Whether you are an experienced chanter or a beginner, the power of collective voice will guide you back to your true self, filled with love and peace.
Join us for this magical evening of Kirtan, music, and community—singing yourself back into the frequency of LOVE!
Schedule & Details:
Friday February 28th, Kirtan begins at 7:30p
$25
Kiranjot Kaur is a vocalist, founding member of Copper Wimmin, Kundalini Yoga teacher, and Indian classical music instructor, with a deep devotion to the Divine Mother and A Course in Miracles. Copper Wimmin gained recognition through appearances on Democracy Now and the Showtime series The L Word, where their song "Bleeding Rivers" was featured.
In 2006, Kiranjot refocused her career toward Indian classical music, dedicating five years to living and studying under the tutelage of her beloved teacher, Dr. Ustad Narindar Singh, in Amritsar, India. Shifting away from traditional performances where the audience is separate from the performer, Kiranjot now merges her early experiences of communal singing with Sweet Honey in the Rock and Bobby McFerrin, alongside her deep love for Indian music and Kirtan traditions.
In 2014, Kiranjot was introduced to A Course in Miracles, and has since steadily integrated its daily lessons into her life. She now offers a unique blend of Indian classical notes and A Course in Miracles songs, sung in the Kirtan style of call and response. Kiranjot invites everyone to experience the transformative healing power of their own voice in the practice of singing together as ONE.
From her journeys through India to Chile and back, Kiranjot has discovered her greatest joy is inspiring everyone regardless of their singing experience, to use their voices as a method for quieting the mind, surrendering to presence, and revolutionary self-love.
Testimonials:
"When Kiranjot joins in our chants, her presence infuses the air with a powerful energy that transcends words. It's as if love itself has manifested, weaving its gentle yet unstoppable threads through our hearts and souls." – Asya Gashi, Founder of Om Chanting LA
“I loved meeting you and being enveloped in your extraordinary naad.” – Kia Miller, Founder of Radiant Body Yoga

What is Yin Yoga?
Yin is a yoga style that evolved from the Taoist yoga lineage. All together, there are 26 and each is held for 3-5 minutes each. Each pose focuses on flushing out different meridians, the same energy channels used in traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture.
Yin is an active practice (unlike a restorative flow), and it can be very effective in releasing on all three levels of your body; physically, mentally and emotionally. It is mostly a floor based practice that actually allows you to let go of your muscles, which results in a palpable cleansing sensation of the fascia.
This is the medicine and the magic of Yin.
What is Reiki?
Reiki is a technique of physical, emotional and energy healing, and had its origin in Japan. This modality aims to help energy flow and remove blockages in a similar way to
acupuncture or acupressure. Improving the flow of energy around the body can allow relaxation, relieve pain, speed healing, and reduce other symptoms of physical and mental illnesses.
During the workshop participants will receive Reiki in all their main 7 Chakras while doing the Yin yoga poses. The combination of those two practices (Yin yoga and Reiki) will create space in your physical body, nourish your nervous system, promote balanced energy, encourage deep relaxation and increase your ability to cope with stress. It is our hope that this workshop will provide a powerful and deep experience of energy healing for the physical, mental, emotional and energetic bodies.
