An invitation to a winter Kitchari cleanse

This 3-day Kitchari cleanse will help you gently let go of heaviness, support your digestion and get your body and mind ready for winter. No fasting, no extremes — just a return to simplicity and rhythm. The turn from autumn to winter is an ideal time for a gentle yet effective cleanse.

Autumn was full.

Maybe you’ve been eating more, moving less, enjoying more comfort — and that’s fine. But right now, as the days get shorter and nature draws inward, the body often starts to signal, quietly or loudly, that it’s time to let go.

Of heaviness. Of mucus. Of lethargy. Of extra reserves you’d otherwise carry like a bear into its winter den.

Ayurveda has known it for ages: the transition between seasons is the ideal time for a gentle yet effective cleanse — before winter fully presses on your digestion, immunity and mood.

No fasting. No extremes. No forcing the body.

Just a return to simplicity, warmth and rhythm.

What we’ve prepared for you

🗓 Cleanse dates: 18–20 November 2026 (3 days — Wednesday, Thursday, Friday)

👉 Complete food for 3 days. Every meal is built on traditional Ayurvedic Kitchari (khichadi) — a simple, nourishing and easily digestible combination of rice, mung beans, vegetables and spices. We cook everything fresh, with a focus on supporting digestion and releasing what the body no longer needs.

👉 CCF tea spice blend. Cumin, coriander and fennel — a time-tested trio that supports digestion, the liver, the lymph and gentle detox without exhaustion.

👉 A recipe for a warming digestive tea. If you want to go a step further, you’ll also get a recipe for a spiced tea you can make to your own taste and mood.

What you’ll get

• Simplicity — 3 days, 3 meals a day. No decisions, no cooking.
• Digestive support and the release of toxins (ama)
• A lighter body, a fresher mind, more space within
• A gentle reset without asceticism, pressure or guilt

Why it works

The cleanse is based on the Ayurvedic Kitchari mono-diet, which gives the digestive system a break while still giving the body everything essential.

CCF tea gently gets the metabolism moving and helps release excess dampness, mucus and stagnation.

And the simple rhythm of the days creates space for the body to switch from “holding on” to “letting go”.

Who it’s for

• if you feel tired, heavy or slowed down
• if you feel overwhelmed — physically or mentally
• if you want to enter winter cleaner, lighter and more grounded

It’s not about performance. It’s about coming back to your centre.

How the cleanse works — in practice

Every morning of the cleanse you’ll receive complete food for the whole day — prepared, warm and easy to follow. No counting, planning or combining. You can eat at home, at work, or right here at Monáda if you want to stay in rhythm and calm.

We’ll pack the food in our glass containers, or you can bring your own — whatever feels more natural. During the day you simply eat what you’ve been given. No forbidden lists, no willpower discipline — just a return to simplicity.

The package also includes a CCF tea spice blend (cumin, coriander, fennel). The tea gently supports digestion, helps relieve bloating, dampness and stagnation, and supports the liver and lymph. It’s optional, but we highly recommend it — a simple tool that makes the cleanse noticeably more pleasant and deeper.

After ordering you’ll get clear instructions covering:

• when and how to eat,
• how to prepare the tea (if you choose to),
• what supports the body during the cleanse and what’s better left out for a few days.

You won’t be on your own or left guessing. The cleanse is designed to carry you, not to test you.

It also matters to us that we do this cleanse ourselves at Monáda. The whole team goes through it — many of us together with our families. It’s not an outside programme or armchair theory, but something we live in our own bodies. That’s why we know where the line is between support and pressure, between a cleanse and an extreme.

And that’s what we want to share with you.

We’re ready. The food will be fresh. The spices mixed. All it takes is your decision.

🌀 Rebellious simplicity. A conscious reset. A cleanse that holds you. — the Monáda bistro team
