Blossoming Into Spring: Ayurveda Cleansing for Renewal and Radiance
As the seasons shift, so too do our bodies, our energy, and our hearts. In this episode, Audrie and Kristina explore the ancient Ayurvedic tradition of seasonal cleansing—why it matters, what it really looks like (spoiler: it’s not endless green juice!), and how it can become a sacred pause that helps us reset body, mind, and spirit.
Together, they share personal stories of transformation, surprising benefits (from clearer skin to deeper emotional clarity), and the small rituals—like daily oil massage, journaling, and mono-dieting—that make this practice deeply nurturing rather than depleting.
You’ll hear about: ✨ Why spring and autumn are key times for cleansing ✨ How to align your inner rhythms with seasonal shifts ✨ The role of nourishment, oil, and compassion in true detoxification ✨ How simplifying food and life opens space for blossoming new intentions ✨ The power of cleansing in community
This episode is an invitation to join the Spring Cleanse beginning October 16th. A chance to step out of the busyness, reconnect with your body, and welcome the new season with clarity and vitality.

How Ayurveda Helped Us Heal, Balance, and (Accidentally) Lose Weight
In this first episode of the Beyond the Diet podcast, Kristina and Audrie share how Ayurveda became the missing piece in their weight and wellness journey.
You’ll hear:
How Kristina’s Vata-Pitta nature pushed her into Ayurveda (and why that wasn’t surprising at all!).
Audrie’s Kapha grounding, and how it balances Kristina’s fiery spontaneity.
The real-life struggles they faced: sluggish digestion, menopausal dryness, stress, and inconsistent energy.
Simple Ayurvedic practices that changed everything—like oiling (abhyanga), tongue scraping, and even introducing ghee.
Why weight loss was never the goal, but balance, nourishment, and vitality led to natural, sustainable results.
The surprising emotional and spiritual shifts that came with their first guided cleanse.
This episode is a beautiful introduction to Ayurveda as a gentle, kind, and deeply personal approach to wellness. Whether you’re looking for better digestion, glowing skin, more energy, or a new way to love your body, Ayurveda has wisdom to share.
