Balancing Vata for Strong Immunity, Digestive Power, and a Calm Nervous System with Ulli Allmendinger (MSc. Ayurveda) and Stephanie Sayegh (RYT)
How did you feel this morning? Refreshed and energized, or were you rolling out of bed with puffy eyes, wishing for more sleep? To a large extent, how you feel is directly linked to your body's ability to deal with toxins. According to Ayurveda, we need to stop and detox twice a year to allow our body's natural healing mechanisms to take over.
Join us for a unique opportunity to experience a 10-day Ayurvedic Fall Detox that will help heal your digestive system as well as vital detoxifying organs such as the lungs and large intestines. The autumn season is the ideal time to release the heat toxins accumulated during summer and prepare your body for a healthy winter season filled with robust immunity, strength, and vitality. This period also aligns with the metal element in Chinese medicine, symbolizing a time to let go and move inward toward our essence.
During this cleanse, our diet will be predominantly vegan-based (except for ghee) and will feature soups and Kitchari, the renowned Ayurvedic detoxification dish made from mung beans, Basmati rice, vegetables, and digestive spices. This forms the foundation of our specialized cleansing techniques, which include herbs, medicinal teas, oils, as well as Yoga and breathing practices.
Set in the serene and picturesque Kairos Farmhouse, a boutique hotel nestled in nature just outside Bodrum, this retreat offers a tranquil environment reminiscent of Tuscany. The idyllic setting will enhance your detox journey, providing a peaceful space to connect deeply with nature and yourself.
