GROUP + PRIVATE KITCHARI CLEANSING

Kitchari is a staple food in India, the name of which translates to something like ‘mixture’ or ‘mess’. Because traditional kitchari is considered extremely easy to digest, it is used in Āyurveda to purify the digestive system, cleanse the body of toxins, thus helping to improve digestion, strengthen immunity, improve natural energy, and even boost cognitive function.

A traditional kitchari is made of a blend of basmati rice, split mung beans, and spices, though vegetables may be added at your discretion. If vegetables are added to kitchari, it becomes more like a stew and less of a ‘medicine’. Though food can be used medicinally, food is not medicine. Food is nutritive, it nourishes you and builds you. Medicine detoxifies you, increases elimination, and returns intelligence to your organism.

Kitchari is used to help the body/mind transition gracefully between seasons or anytime your body/mind needs a reset, to shed sluggish, stuck, and negative energy while nourishing and calming the digestive and nervous system. The combination of lentils and rice makes this easy to digest porridge a complete protein, ideal to support the body through gentle detoxification during Āyurvedic seasonal cleanse, or anytime you are looking for a warming, nourishing meal.

The key to detoxifying the body/mind is gentleness. The body/mind is very intelligent; it is doing everything it can to stay alive! It is attached to that which it clutches and holds on to so firmly for a reason. If you are stressed, you cannot detoxify. This is why using a whole foods approach to cleansing like the Āyurvedic kitchari mono-diet is so impactful. This meal is a complete protein that helps your body maintain satiety, a stable blood sugar, mineral balance, and, perhaps most importantly, adrenal function. Āyurveda's kitchari cleanse provides everything you need for an effective reset of your entire organism's digestive capacity and immune function.

Support your body/mind with an Ayurvedic Kitchari Cleanse to:

  • usher toxic residues out of your system(s)

  • reset metabolism / kindle digestive fire

  • balance and harmonize bodily humors

  • increase energy and vitality

  • improve cognition (mental clarity + memory)

  • improve immunity

  • improve your relationship with food

  • reset appetites!
