4 Day Ayurvedic Understanding, Detox & Cleanse in California, US

This four-day Ayurvedic detox and cleanse retreat in California Hot Springs, California, is designed for anyone seeking a grounded, practical introduction to Ayurveda while giving their body and mind a gentle reset. You will learn directly from Dr. Jagdish Bhutada, an Ayurvedic physician from Pune, India, who brings decades of clinical and teaching experience to this intimate program. He founded and leads the residential Ayurveda Panchakarma with Yoga program at Kaivalyadhama, one of the world's oldest and most respected scientific yoga research institutes. Over four days, Dr. Bhutada will guide you through the foundational principles of Yogic and Ayurvedic science, making ancient wisdom accessible and relevant to modern daily life. Expect clear, practical education on how diet, lifestyle, and natural rhythms shape your health, rather than abstract theory. Alongside the teachings, you will move through a gentle body-mind detox. The approach is holistic and nature-based, addressing not just physical symptoms but the deeper patterns that shape how you feel, eat, sleep, and recover. It is a supportive, restorative process rather than an extreme cleanse. The setting at California Hot Springs enhances the experience naturally. The remote, mineral-spring environment of this part of California offers quiet and warmth that complement the internal work of Ayurveda, giving you space to slow down and absorb what you learn. This retreat suits yoga practitioners, wellness-curious travelers, and anyone who has wanted to understand Ayurveda from an authentic source without traveling to India. No prior knowledge of Ayurveda is needed, only an openness to learn and a willingness to let the body rest.
