Spring Equinox in Hoi An

A Village Already Living in Rhythm

Join us during the spring equinox in the magical village of Hoi An, where cyclical living is already breathed through the lives of the locals. Here, we return to that same rhythm through the serene peace of green rice fields as the climate itself shifts from cold to hot, a living reminder of the reset happening within.

Your digestive fire, or agni, is the foundation of your vitality. It shapes your energy, your clarity, your immunity, your mood, and how fully you feel alive. In Ayurveda, maintaining strong digestion is essential to health and inner harmony. Your digestive fire mirrors the fire of the Earth, so when the seasons shift, we are reminded of when and how to recalibrate our inner world.

Timed With the Spring Equinox

This retreat falls during the spring equinox, the moment when day and night stand equal and the year turns from winter toward summer. Ayurveda has long marked this turning point as a time for cleansing and renewal. We move through this retreat in that same rhythm: releasing, resting, and rebuilding, together, in Hoi An.

The Journey

In Hoi An, the ten days move through three stages, each building on the one before. The online self-paced program follows the same arc across nine days, moving through the reset in your own time.

01
Days 1–3

Release

We let go of what no longer serves the body. Processed foods, sugar, caffeine, and digestive disruptors give way to warm, grounding meals, herbal teas, and digestive spices that prepare the body for deep rest.

02
Days 4–7

Reset

The heart of the retreat. A gentle guided fast moves into a nourishing mono-diet of kitchari, the Ayurvedic cleansing dish of rice, lentils, and spices, while the body focuses its energy on digestion and cellular renewal.

03
Days 8–10

Rebuild

We reintroduce nourishing whole foods, restore mindful eating practices, and set sustainable habits for long-term gut health that travel home with you.

Daily Rhythms

A closer look at how each day moves, from arrival to departure.

Mar 30

Arrival

Arrive by 3pm and settle in. We open together with a circle and dinner.

Mar 31–Apr 7

Immersion

Each day begins waking with the sun, moving into meditation, chanting, and an hour of yoga practice. Afternoons hold a workshop on Vedic science alongside integration and journaling prompts. Two meals a day support a gentle intermittent fasting rhythm, with a 24 to 72 hour fast personalized to you. Evenings are held for self-practiced nighttime routines, with daily juices and teas throughout.

Apr 8

Departure

A final morning of yoga, a closing takeaways circle, and breakfast together before we say goodbye by 11am.

What Past Participants Have Shared

“Fasting is not what I expected it to be. I feel much better afterwards and I am very open to repeat it regularly. I learned a lot about nutrition which is really interesting.” Petra Hoffelner, Austria, 2025
“The importance of digestion, the foods you consume, the timing, the amount, and the combinations. I have a much better understanding of how to listen to my body and its needs, really getting out of the head and into the body. To trust myself more, that I am a lot more capable than I give myself credit for. I have a much better relationship with myself and food now, which is a relief and so empowering.” Laree, Vietnam, 2025
“I loved the 9-day gut reset with Irina! It was perfectly timed, and I went into the program without any expectations, which made each day a pleasant surprise. I found the experience truly transformational. I now have a much better understanding of myself, a greater appreciation for food and digestion, and I feel incredible. I never thought I would try intermittent fasting, but Irina guided us through the process each day, gently supporting us the whole way. It’s insightful, empowering, and truly life-changing.” Laree Kenawa, New Zealand, 2025
