As women, our bodies are deeply connected to the rhythms of nature. Just as the earth moves through cycles of stillness and rebirth, so do we move through seasons - both externally and within us.
Winter is the season of rest, retreat, and stillness. It’s ruled by Kapha dosha - the earth and water elements - which bring heaviness, slowness, and grounding. This energy is necessary for deep rest, but as spring arrives, Kapha can linger, manifesting as:
Lethargy or sluggishness
Water retention or bloating
Mucus or sinus congestion
Emotional heaviness or lack of motivation
Hormonal stagnation
Spring is the season of renewal, movement, and light - a sacred invitation to gently cleanse the body, reawaken the senses, and reconnect to the feminine flow that lives within.
Cleansing doesn’t have to mean harsh detoxes or deprivation. In Ayurveda, true cleansing is about supporting your body’s natural intelligence - allowing it to release what it no longer needs, while nourishing yourself deeply.
This is especially important for women. Our hormones thrive when we feel safe, grounded, and aligned with nature. A gentle Kapha-balancing cleanse honours the body’s cycles while rekindling our inner spark.
You might feel the call for a spring reset if you’ve noticed:
Low energy or motivation
Feeling “puffy” or heavy in your body
Cravings for sugar or comfort foods
Irregular cycles or PMS
Emotional dullness or disconnection
These are all sacred signals from your body - asking for space, lightness, and movement.
Here are 5 Ayurvedic, feminine-centred ways to invite renewal into your life:
Kapha is prone to stagnation so begin each day with gentle movement—walking, womb-centred yoga, or even dancing to your favourite song. Follow with dry brushing, which activates lymphatic flow and encourages detox through the skin.
Feel your body reawakening. This is your return to vitality.
Swap out the heavy comfort foods of winter for liver-supportive greens like dandelion, arugula, asparagus, and herbs. Incorporate light soups, lentils, warming spices (ginger, cumin, turmeric), and limit dairy and cold/raw foods that aggravate Kapha.
Warm lemon water with a pinch of cayenne is a good morning ritual to stoke digestion.
Ayurveda and circadian wisdom both honour the power of the sun. Light exposure first thing in the morning resets cortisol rhythms, balances melatonin, and supports hormonal harmony. Just 10–15 minutes of sunlight on your skin can signal your body it’s safe to wake, move, and flow.
Kapha doesn’t only collect in the body - it clings to old stories, grief, and emotional heaviness. Spring offers a portal to release what’s no longer aligned.
Ask yourself:
What am I ready to let go of?
What desires are ready to bloom in me now?
You might write, cry, walk barefoot in the grass—let the earth hold your process.
Spring is not just outside of you - it’s within you. Take time to sit with the energy of renewal. Visualise roots connecting you to the earth and blossoms opening at your heart and womb space. Breathe in possibility. Breathe out what no longer serves.
You don’t have to do it alone!
