This is an excellent time to do this cleanse, going into Spring.  Just happened to take an Ayurvedic class recently and learned the following ~ Check the website @Banyanbotanicals.org to find your Dosha, it’s so interesting and they can recommend a lifestyle that fits your Ayurvedic dosha.  Pretty amazing!  It can be pretty limiting but just do what you can and eliminate the Ghee, use coconut oil in it’s place.  For instance the teacher said I shouldn’t do iced tea, that’s my favorite afternoon drink in the spring/summer months, so can’t follow it to the T.  Eat only when your hungry, two meals a day is plenty!  Look at your hand, a portion is a handful.  Chew your food slowly for better digestion.  Fix Agni.  Essential Oil Vapor and incense to clear space.  Smell clears pathogens.  Plates consist of 6 taste.  That would be too much for me to do.  So it’s more complicated things like this that you could probably skip.  I love the idea of two meals a day as plenty and the amounts!

The FULL moons are everything in Ayurvedic ~ to create and allow time for yourself and spiritual experiences, SEX, women’s cycle, planting seeds.

Recite this Invocation on the full moons for if we pray together the world will know more peace.  Link for A Universal Prayer for World Peace ~http://pranaworld.net/the-great-invocation/

“The spirit of Invocation, of longing for and reaching for contact with higher beings is strengthened at Full Moon.  At each Full Moon, a stream of love is poured forth by all Masters and initiates who have taken at least the Third Initiation.”

Master Djwhal Khul
