THE RESET

Ayurveda originated in India more than 5,000 years ago and is considered the oldest continuously practiced health-care system in the world. Ayur means “life” and veda means “science” or “knowledge”, so it can be understood as a science of life. Ayurveda uses food as medicine, herbs, lifestyle routines, bodywork therapies, and gentle seasonal cleansing to nourish the tissues, remove stagnation, and increase health.

Ayurvedic cleanses have been used in India for many centuries to restore balance in the body and mind. It’s a way to improve your digestion and boost your immunity. When we don’t properly digest our foods, thoughts, or experiences—when we have poor digestion all around—it can lead to anxiety, foggy thinking, and lack of energy.

I created the RESET program to help you recalibrate the way you take care of yourself and how move through your day. You'll learn how to stay healthy through the summer season. You will realign, replenish and reset.

What are the benefits?

The RESET is cleansing and rebalancing physically as well as in a mind-emotional and heart-centering way.

You’ll get:

an orientation video guiding you through each step of the RESET program
a virtual Summer Wellness workshop to help you understand summer and the Pitta dosha along with rituals and routines to stay cool and calm - June 21nd at 7 pm
a live kick-off Q&A group video call to answer any questions you may have

mindfulness practices to help you slow down and align with your intentions

THE DETAILS

You will receive the information and guidance you need to partake in a whole-food, plant-based Summer RESET from the comfort of your own home. There are no shakes, fasting, or expensive supplements. You will be eating three meals a day.

Schedule

Although there are set dates for the RESET, it’s designed for you to adjust the dates to work best for you. Here’s what the schedule looks like:

PRE-RESET: PREPARE

Review the RESET manual. Purchase supplies and prepare your kitchen. Set your intentions.

MAIN RESET

Phase 1 Simplify (days 1-2): Enjoy three seasonally aligned plant-based meals per day. Incorporate daily self-care practices and relax into your routine.
Phase 2 RESET (day 3): Enjoy three meals of Ayurveda's purifying and healing kitchari. If desired, you could continue with Simplify.
Phase 3 Restore (days 4-5): Is for restoring and returning to the seasonally aligned meals of the first phase.

POST-RESET: REINTEGRATE

Begin reintegrating a balanced diet step-by-step as you return to your daily activities with increased vitality.

One week prior to the start of the RESET you’ll get access to an orientation webinar as well all the materials you need to have a successful RESET.

Other Things to Expect

The first two days of the RESET are about eliminating and avoiding hard to digest foods—including alcohol, sugar, and flesh foods— and upgrading to more health-giving foods, like maple syrup instead of white sugar. You’ll also set intentions, and learn Ayurvedic self-care rituals, as well as how to set up a sacred kitchen.

During phase two, the main cleanse, you’ll eat purifying meals with seasonal vegetables and continue with your Ayurvedic self-care rituals. Reducing sensory stimulus and slowing down so you can proceed with a lot of intentionality is recommended.

Finally, during phase three you’ll follow a step-by-step protocol for introducing foods back into your diet. You’ll have worked hard to reduce and eliminate certain foods, which you may decide not to reintroduce.

Testimonials

Sheryl

Andrea’s cleanses offer a great opportunity to reset your eating habits, learn delicious new recipes, and feel connected to a supportive wellness community. The recipes alone are worth the price of admission, and Andrea’s daily emails offer even more useful tips and nutritional wisdom. I look forward to setting aside these special days for self-care every spring and fall.

To be honest, I always “cheat” a little when I’m doing a cleanse with Andrea! But that’s ok! Andrea leaves room for imperfection and encourages everyone to stay within their comfort zone while offering wise and compassionate feedback for achieving your goals. And the recipes are amazing!

Liz

New to Ayurveda, the materials that Andrea provided for the cleanse gave me the confidence that I needed to adjust my routine. After that first cleanse, I felt like a new person. My stress levels had decreased significantly, my body felt cleaner and healthier, and I had a routine that worked and was sustainable.

It is like a mini self-care retreat at my home. The manual provides easy to prepare meals, that are delicious and help realign my eating habits towards what is nourishing that season. The daily routine, yoga classes, and community that forms with others that are taking the cleanse nourish my soul and help to refocus my attention on what is important.

HI, I AM ANDREA.

I’m an Āyurvedic health practitioner, yoga therapist, and meditation teacher living in Madison, Wisconsin. If I could convince you of only one thing, it’s this: that there’s a path to transform suffering—of feeling unwell, anxious, or like you’re spread too thin. here are tools that can help you heal, get back to yourself, and remember what is meaningful, and live in alignment.

The momentum of life can pull us off center. We don’t always get what we want, people we love die, and at times, the world can be a hard place to live. We need practices that bring us back home to ourselves so we may stay true to what’s in our hearts. We need ways to cultivate strength, resiliency, and compassion. Ancient practices offer timeless tools that can help.

If you think that learning ways to help you move more easily, to transform your relationship with food, to develop sustainable self-care routines, and to down regulate your nervous system can help you achieve optimal health, I’d love to work with you.
