DESCRIPTION:
What is Navaratri?
Navaratri is a nine-day window in the Vedic calendar aligned with seasonal and astrological rhythms. It offers a moment to pause, release, and enter a deeper dialogue with your body, mind, and spirit.
This spring, the Navaratri Ayurvedic Cleanse provides a guided at-home journey of deep purification and attunement, aligned with eclipses, lunar movement, and the subtle intelligence of the seasons.
The cleanse unfolds in three phases, reflecting the natural arc of release, refinement, and insight. Participants may commit to three, six, or nine days, moving through the same progressive journey at a pace that fits their readiness.
Why Cleanse?

Kate brings decades of experience in classical Ayurvedic medicine, seasonal cleansing, and holistic education.
