March events: Spring Cleanse and Cooking for Spring!

The Spring Cleanse workshop is this coming Saturday, March 3 at the Columbia Yoga Center.  I am teaching it along with Debbie Martin. 

 

Cleansing is not about deprivation or calorie counting, but rather about using a nourishing, easy-to-digest, simple, whole foods diet to rebuild and recharge your body. A spring cleanse is like cleaning out our closets only we are cleaning ourselves! The change of seasons is the best time to do a cleanse. An Ayurvedic cleanse gives your body the opportunity to rest and reset by removing toxins and excess fat that may have accumulated over winter. This helps reduce imbalances which can lead to congestion, spring colds, allergies and asthma. Taste food samples and receive step-by-step instructions on the three phases of a cleanse: preparation, actual cleanse and post-cleanse support.   If you are not sure how much you want to commit to a cleanse, we will be providing guidance on how to move into spring in a healthy way, and you can do as much of the practice as works for you.

Let me know if you have any questions.  Registration is through the Columbia Yoga Center.

 

Saturday, March 3;    1:00pm - 4:00pm

I will be holding 2 Cooking for Spring Workshops at my house in Silver Spring!  The first will be on Sunday, March 25th from 1:30 to 4:30 (the second will be toward the end of April).  We cook Indian Vegetarian Dishes appropriate for the season, and we will talk about good dietary practices for spring.  Everyone helps prepare the dishes, and we all eat together!    Contact me with questions and to reserve your space, at dhelfeld@starpower.net!
