Behind the Scenes of my 5-Day Kitchari Cleanse

When I was asked if I wanted to participate in a 5-day Kitchari reset, I honestly didn’t know what Kitchari was, but I said a fast, “HELL YES” because it was being hosted by the owner of Curcuma - the most special little food truck here in Austin.

Doing an Ayurvedic cleanse was a no-brainer for me. While I don’t follow it fully, I love and deeply trust Ayurvedic traditions. Overall, I knew we’d be following deep-rooted practices, not some posh, quick-fix detox.

In my opinion, there’s nothing better than a quiet day in the country, spent sitting by the water. I’m always dreaming of spending the day soaking in the views and reading by the pool or lake. I love the convenience and excitement of living in a great city like Austin, but long for time to disconnect and relax in the country.

Located on Lake Austin, Lake Austin Spa Resort is perhaps the most lush expression of my weekend dream. With ample lake shore views, a scenic country setting, mature trees, foliage, and...oh yeah, a beautiful spa, two restaurants, and amazing accommodations, Lake Austin Spa Resort is the ultimate spot for a day away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Earlier this spring, I took a private aerial arts class with several of my gal-pals as part of a bachelorette celebration. While I’d love to tell you I left the class able to gracefully ascend from the ceiling on a silk like Beyonce, I think it best to provide you with a more accurate representation of what happens in an aerial arts class.
