Inside My 7-Day Ayurvedic Spring Cleanse

This episode takes you behind the scenes of my personal 7-day Ayurvedic spring cleanse. From the meals and herbal supports to the emotional and physical shifts, I walk you through each day of the journey—what I ate, how I felt, and how I stayed grounded through it all.

You’ll hear how I gradually transitioned from denser meals to lighter ones, supported my digestion with Ayurvedic herbs, and experienced a deep reset—not just in my body but also in my energy and mindset. I also share the often-overlooked post-cleanse phase, samsarjana krama, and how it helps restore digestive fire and long-term wellbeing.

If you’re curious about what a gentle, real-life Ayurvedic cleanse actually looks like—or you’re preparing for your own—you’ll find inspiration, practical tips, and permission to take it slow and stay warm.

Katja Patel is a yoga teacher, teacher mentor, and Ayurveda consultant with over 25 years of experience helping women come back into rhythm — in their bodies, their days, and their lives.

Her work focuses on restoring steadiness through daily rhythms that support digestion, sleep, energy, and the nervous system — rather than chasing quick fixes or wellness trends.

After navigating scoliosis and chronic pain herself, Katja understands what it means to live in a body that feels out of sync — and how yoga and Ayurveda, when taught simply and applied wisely, can rebuild resilience, confidence, and trust in the body again.

Through her courses, workshops, and writing, she helps women stop trying to “do everything right” and instead learn how to listen, adjust, and return the rhythms their body has been asking for all along.

You can begin with her free guide, 5 Ayurvedic Shifts from Scattered to Steady, or explore her signature workshop Stress Less, Live More, where she teaches the rhythm-based approach to restoring sleep, digestion, and nervous system balance.
