From an Ayurvedic perspective, issues that have been building in the physiology come to a head at the change of seasons. Each season has its dominant dosha so when they change in the world, it can amplify imbalances within.
As a result, Ayurveda recommends a cleanse in the spring and fall to re-balance the physiology and maintain health. This year, I’m doing the full deal including panchakarma (meaning 5 actions or treatments).
As a result, for the first week of April I’ll be off-line and not responding to messages or comments. I’ll catch up after I get back.
Meantime, I begin the cleanse tomorrow. Preparing the ground…

Wonderful! No, I’m not the slightest bit envious, no siree, not me…

First mornings routine took 3 hours. The body is getting more attention than it’s ever had.
I’ve done most of the parts before but not all together. It’s quite a process…
Does it come from a book? Could you share the process Here?
Enjoy!!!!

No, this is a program, customized by an Ayervedic technician.
In this program, I get a kit to do all the routines. It includes various spice blends, oils, and so forth. There’s a prep phase at home, then time in a spa, then more at home. This makes it vastly cheaper than a typical spa or a trip to one in India.
Enjoy!
Thanks!
Last day! Have begun an article about it.
Also began some web site tweaks with more to come.
Cannot wait to hear all about it!
Thanks, Aaron. The article is more about the overall process and advantages than my own experience, but I do touch on a few things. Each persons process and experience will be somewhat different.
I do hope to get a few articles finished this evening before the next retreat. 🙂
