Autumn is the season of change, dominated by the energy of Vata (Air & Space). The days grow noticeably shorter, temperatures drop, chilly winds blow, we begin to spend more time in our heated homes, and the body responds by drying. A gentle fall cleanse rids the body of built-up toxins and excess Pitta (Fire-Heat). The Rasayana (rejuvenation) phase of the Autumn Cleanse supports the integration of Summer’s heat into a soothing and sustaining warmth. This warmth along with a healthy digestive system and potent immune system carries us through the cold and dark Kapha (Earth & Water) time of the year (Winter, and early Spring) with health, resiliency, vitality, and juiciness! 

What to Expect: 

o Learn foundational elements of Ayurveda (Science of Life) how you feel and experience and wisely digest life. 

o Tools needed to understand your unique body constitution.

o Strategies to live harmoniously with the rhythms of nature.

o Learn Importance of seasonal cleansing of toxins from the body/mind.

o Daily self-cleansing practices for optimal health.

o Specific details on how to complete the Ayurvedic Autumn Cleanse.

Seasonal Routines

For Vibrant Health

Sunday April 25th 2021

1:00 pm to 4:00 pm PT

On Zoom

Ritucharya is the concept of adjusting our lifestyle, diet, exercise and self-care routines according to the Dosha (elemental) qualities present in each season. Some of which are obvious, such as not wearing a parka and wool hat in the summer of shorts and tank top in the winter.  The deep and ancient wisdom of Ayurveda teaches us how to align our lives, actions, diet and lifestyle to live in harmony with the rhythms and cycles of nature.  Adopting Ayurvedic lifestyle and coming into alignment with these natural flows supports ease and balance in our body/mind availing us to greater vibrancy in health and expression of our spirit.

In this workshop you will learn:

• Ayurvedic principles of the elements of life in nature and within us.
• The various phases contained within each of the 4 seasons.
• How to adjust your diet with the seasons.
• How to adjust your exercise/yoga practices with the seasons.
• Best times of the year for detox and cleansing.
• Simple Ayurvedic herbal formulas to support health in each of the seasons

 According to Ananda Marga Philosophy, the mind or Citta is pure consciousness. However, through embodied life experience, pure consciousness divides into 3 separate perceptions. Manas ( External Ego Identifications), Buddhi ( Discernment) and Ahamkara (Personal Ego Identification). The yogic practice, the aspirant learns to pull their awareness inward at 1st to the more stable Buddhi consciousness which then once established there begins the ascent toward self realization and eventually God realization. The journey toward greater clarity guides us through several layers that yoga philosophy describes as Kosas or Sheaths which surround the light of pure consciousness or Atma.  These layers or sheathes of consciousness have been described in detail in Patanjali's Yoga Sutras.

Our 8 month long journey will be a deep dive into these sheaths to reveal how through contemplation, clearing of karmas (patterns of actions), clearing of Samskaras (conditioned responses) and integration of the deeper truth of our being we will...
