Seasonal change, heralded by the Spring equinox on September 21st, alerts our mind and bodies that we need to shift gears to keep functioning at our best.
After the excesses of winter where we are ‘stocking up’ to keep warm and nourished in all manner of ways, this is the perfect time to let go and re-fresh. No doubt the liver, gall bladder and intestinal tract all yearn for a good cleanse!

Who hasn’t gained a little more around the waist from rich, heavy and grounding food so necessary during winter. 

Join our expanding Dru Ayurveda community in our popular biannual equinox 5 or 7-day cleanse,
to keep our bodies and minds functioning at their very best during this time of seasonal change.

The cleanse itself 18th to 22nd or 24th September 2023!

Going in gently, 1 day  
Diving in deeper, 1 day
Mono eating kitcheri, 1 or 3 days
Coming out gradually, 2 days  

Kitcheri, the nourishing, cleansing, easy to digest Ayurvedic superfood will be our staple.
It is high in protein and is extremely comforting to your digestive tract and intestinal mucosa, beneficial for intestinal repair, rejuvenation and spiritual growth!. We provide full menus for each day, with recipes for three different kitcheri's, complete with cooking videos.

In the middle days of the cleanse we mono-eat our Detox kitcheri, three meals a day. When you eat a mono diet, your body can focus the energy that normally goes towards digestion to cleansing and healing other systems.

Our meal plan is  truly transformative—for both your body’s detoxing processes and your psychological relationship to food. 

Always eat your largest serving of kitchari at midday, when your digestion is the strongest.
For dinner, eat early and eat a smaller serving. 

Full price: 5 days: $370, 7 days: $424
DPN/concession cards: 5 days: $296, 7 days: $350
50% offer for returning detoxers & Bring a friend: 5 days: $185, 7 days $239

‘It was a valuable experience for my digestion and my mind. The food and daily routines were simple to apply, and have brought a new steadiness into my heart, mind and body. A good mix of info, movement, and sharing videos and zoom sessions.’ Jane Dru Yoga and Dru Meditation teacher

‘The detox at home was so easy to follow and the food delicious. Easing into the 5 days and then easing out made the experience very doable. I didn't feel hungry very often, and when I did, I just had an extra bowl of kitcheri. Yummy!Mouli & Greg are both wonderful and supportive. Very empowering and nourishing to the soul.’ Bev retired registered nurse/social worker

‘I LOVED the five evening catch ups on zoom, the sessions were the magic ingredient… some of the most positive zoom experiences I have ever had—so heart warming. Everyone was supportive, respectful, kind and gentle with each other. The 1 hour flowed so smoothly thanks to Mouli and Greg being fabulous hosts. PERFECT!’ Kathryn life coach, counsellor & mentor

‘It was wonderfully nurturing opportunity to come back to myself. I will definitely do a detox like this with every equinox.’ Olga, yoga teacher, online chat host

‘Absolutely brilliant! If you are looking for something to help you rebalance yourself physically, bring more emotional awareness into your life, deepen your connection to your Self and others, I found the spring detox experience gave all of these things and so much more. This is the gift that keeps on giving.’
Fiona, K–12 teacher, Dru yoga instructor, home schooling mother

‘Excellent. Throughout the whole process you knew that expert support was available & readily accessible.’ Julie, Wellbeing centre and yoga tutor

‘Far exceeded my expectations. I would say it was transformative. If you are needing to reset and rejuvenate consider the Dru Ayurveda detox@home program. I thoroughly enjoyed all the delicious food, the cooking instructions, the invaluable support from the tutors and the connection with a community of like minded souls on the same journey. Thank you, thank you, thank you!’ Nicky, Dru Yoga teacher, True Equanimity Yoga

‘I have done an amapachana detox twice before but found this Dru detox was by far the best detox ever. I think the group participation, support from tutors and students made it easier and fun. The feeling of isolation and separation was minimal and knowing that there were others experiencing challenging times too was reassuring. I was inspired by fellow participants and more motivated to succeed and wanted to encourage others to cross the finishing line together. Yay we did it! Thank you so much for being a catalyst for improving lives and the planet.’ Margot, yoga and meditation teacher

‘A fabulous program to gently guide and inspire you to make gentle Ayurvedic lifestyle changes to improve your overall health and wellbeing. A fabulous opportunity to reset your life through the wisdom of Ayurveda. I highly recommend the detox program to others.’ Kathryn, life coach, counsellor & mentor
