Foundations: Spring Cleaning Inside and Out

Spring has long been viewed as a natural time for renewal, reflection, and clearing accumulated stagnation from winter. In this recorded course, you’ll explore seasonal cleansing through a holistic health lens, drawing from Ayurveda, herbal traditions, and nutrition-based principles that support the body’s natural processes of elimination and balance.

You’ll gain clarity about what detoxification actually means within traditional frameworks, why spring is considered an ideal season for cleansing, and how gentle adjustments to food, daily routine, and lifestyle can support circulation, digestion, and renewal. The course also introduces traditional herbal categories and seasonal foods commonly used to encourage lightness and vitality during springtime transitions.

Rather than focusing on extreme cleanses or rigid protocols, the class emphasizes discernment, safety, and sustainability. Attention is also given to the external environment, helping you understand how household habits and product choices influence overall wellbeing.

This class is well suited for individuals and practitioners seeking a grounded, educational approach to seasonal cleansing that supports both internal balance and a healthier living environment.

Class Description

Seasonal transitions offer an opportunity to realign habits and support the body’s natural rhythms. In many holistic health traditions, spring is understood as a time when accumulated heaviness from winter begins to mobilize, making it an appropriate season for gentle cleansing and renewal. In this recorded course, you’ll explore how seasonal detoxification is traditionally approached and how it can be integrated thoughtfully into modern life.

The course begins by clarifying the meaning of detoxification within traditional frameworks, distinguishing it from extreme or short-term cleanses. You’ll learn how stagnation may develop through diet, lifestyle, and environmental exposure, and why the organs of digestion, circulation, and elimination are central to seasonal balance. The discussion emphasizes how supportive practices help the body do what it is already designed to do, rather than forcing change.

You’ll then explore practical strategies commonly used during spring cleansing, including dietary adjustments, hydration, movement, and daily routines that support circulation and digestive ease. The course introduces seasonal foods and herbal categories traditionally associated with springtime renewal, along with guidance on pacing and individual readiness.

In addition to internal practices, the class also addresses external influences on wellbeing. You’ll gain insight into common sources of environmental exposure in daily life and explore practical ways to reduce unnecessary burden through thoughtful household choices and routines.

Throughout the course, spring cleansing is presented as a holistic process that includes awareness, simplicity, and gradual change. The goal is to help you approach renewal in a way that feels supportive, informed, and sustainable over time.
