As the seasons change, so do our bodies' needs. Now that Autumn has arrived, it’s the perfect time to reassess your wellness routine and prepare your body for the cooler months ahead. Cleansing seasonally can help you feel more attuned, energised and ready to take on the months ahead. We encourage you to embrace a cleansing ritual that feels like a natural, supportive reset for your body. Here’s how you can adjust your cleanse throughout the year for maximum benefits.
The power of seasonal cleansing
When we align our diet and lifestyle with nature's seasonal cycles, it can help us feel more connected and attuned to our overall health and vitality. It’s like hitting the reset button every 3 months to create space for reflection and realignment within ourselves! What better way than to kick off a new season with a gentle juice cleanse made with fresh seasonal ingredients? Our juice packs are designed to provide nourishment that suits each phase of the year.
As we transition from the heat of summer to the cooler months, the shift from summer’s light, raw foods to more grounding, warming ingredients that nourish digestion and prepare the body for winter. Think restorative broths, slow cooks, warm herbal infusions and nutrient dense juices to support immunity.
What to focus on in an Autumn cleanse
- Grounding & nourishing ingredients: Think root vegetables, warming spices like ginger and turmeric & deep coloured fruits rich in antioxidants.
- Gut health & immunity support: Fermented foods, bone broths, prebiotics and probiotics rich foods to soothe and restore the gut. Use herbs and spices like turmeric, oregano, echinacea, olive leaf, garlic, ginger and rosemary to support immunity.
- Hydration & herbal support: Herbal teas, warm lemon water and hydrating juices with ingredients like beetroot and carrot to assist detoxification.
- Balanced fasting: Short, gentle fasting windows to allow the digestive system to rest and reset without feeling depleted. Speak to a trusted healthcare practitioner to see if this is suitable for you first.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Ayurveda and Indigenous traditions have long embraced seasonal detoxing to maintain balance and longevity. Cleansing isn’t a new concept—it’s deeply rooted in ancient traditions.
Ayurvedic Indian medicine teaches that Autumn is dominated by the Vata dosha. This is characterised by dryness, coolness and movement. To maintain balance, Ayurveda recommends consuming warm, grounding foods like cooked vegetables, nourishing broths and healthy fats. Gentle cleansing with warm herbal teas, seasonal juices and light meals can help remove accumulated toxins while keeping the body balanced and strong for winter. Meanwhile, in TCM, Autumn is related to the metal element, which governs the lungs and large intestine. These organs are responsible for detoxification and elimination, making autumn an important time for clearing out waste and strengthening the respiratory system.
Autumn cleansing ritual at home
- Before beginning your cleanse, set your intentions and write down what you’d like to release physically, mentally and emotionally.
- Make your cleanse experience as enjoyable as possible by setting up a cosy space, lighting a candle, putting your phone away and intentionally slowing down.
- Pay attention to how different foods and juices make you feel and adjust accordingly.
- Appreciate your body for all it does and honour its natural cycles without judgement.
- Practice restorative yoga, nature walks, or breath work to support your nervous system and detox process.
Cleansing isn’t about depriving yourself—it’s about creating space to nourish and reset. By shifting your mindset from “giving things up” to “giving yourself nourishment,” your cleanse becomes something to look forward to—an act of deep self care and alignment with the seasons.
As we move into autumn, take the opportunity to reset and ground yourself. A seasonal juice cleanse can help you feel lighter, clearer and more energised while supporting your body’s natural rhythms. Whether you’re looking for a gentle detox or a deeper reset, embracing seasonal cleansing allows you to flow with nature rather than against it.
