Sleep WellDoes the cure make you dependent?+

Good Gut FeelingWhy is the Good Gut Feeling Home Cure so intensive?+
The Good Gut Feeling Cure is deliberately designed to be more comprehensive in order to provide you with a deeper experience within a clearly defined period of time. With its varied recipes and daily applications, you can specifically support your digestion.
Its more intensive structure distinguishes it from the Daily programs, which are designed for long-term routines. Both approaches work in their own way – choose what currently fits better into your life.
Sleep WellWhy is the same routine followed every day in the Sleep Well Daily?+
Yes, and that is exactly the point! In Ayurveda, the power of regeneration lies in a daily routine. Repetition gives your body the opportunity to adapt to the new impulses and anchor them sustainably.
Inner BeautyWhy is the same routine followed every day in the Inner Beauty Daily?+
Yes, because beauty comes from within—and through repetition. The daily routine can help your body find stability and give you the opportunity to experience real and sustainable change.
Good Gut FeelingWhy is the same routine followed every day in the Good Gut Feeling Daily?+
Yes, and that is intentional! Our Daily is based on the power of a consistent daily routine. Through repetition, we give the body stability and create the foundation for sustainable well-being. This daily structure is deliberately kept simple so that you can fully focus on what truly matters.
Good Gut FeelingWhat should I do if I don’t want to lose weight during the cure?+
If you do not want to lose weight during the Good Gut Feeling Cure, you can adjust portion sizes and/or add a healthy and nourishing snack (e.g. 2 dates and nuts or porridge).
Good Gut FeelingWill I lose weight on the Good Gut Feeling Cure?+
It depends on how you normally eat. If it involves a significant reduction and dietary change for you, it is possible that weight loss may occur.
Products and ProgramsHow can I live more mindfully with Dailies and the tea ceremony?+
Integrating these rituals into your daily life helps you develop mindfulness and inner balance. The daily repetition creates a conscious routine that supports you in enjoying the present moment and approaching everyday life in a more slowed-down, mindful way.
Products and ProgramsHow long does a tea ceremony take?+
A tea ceremony can take between 10 and 30 minutes, depending on how it is performed and personal preference. The focus should be on using the time mindfully and not rushing.
Products and ProgramsWhat are the benefits of a tea ceremony as a daily ritual?+
A regular tea ceremony helps reduce stress, promotes mindfulness, and calms the mind. It provides structure and creates a moment of pause in a busy everyday life.
Products and ProgramsWhat is a tea ceremony?+
A tea ceremony is a mindful, often meditative ritual in which the preparation and drinking of tea is the central focus. It can have cultural and spiritual significance and aims to help you enjoy the moment, find calm, and practice mindfulness.
Products and programsDo I get new inputs regularly in the Dailies?+
A Daily is designed to help you integrate a routine into your everyday life and make it part of your day. For this reason, new inputs are not constantly provided on purpose. The goal is to repeat the routine every day.
Products and ProgramsWhich Dailies are available?+
You can choose from 3 different Dailies:
Sleep Well Daily
Good Gut Feeling Daily
Inner Beauty Daily
Products and programsIs a Daily suitable for everyone?+
Dailies are suitable for all healthy individuals who would like to integrate Ayurveda into their lives. We have put together 3 different Dailies for you – choose the one that suits you and get started.
If you have any pre-existing medical conditions or are pregnant, we kindly ask you to clarify the use of the respective products with a doctor, alternative practitioner, or therapist you trust.
Products and ProgramsWhich subscription is the perfect entry point?+
If you want to get to know Ayurveda better, we recommend starting with a tea ceremony or a Daily in combination with the “Insights Only” subscription.
This combination allows you to integrate a daily Ayurvedic routine into your everyday life. In addition, you receive many valuable tips and Ayurvedic knowledge.
Products and ProgramsWhy are the routines of the Dailies and tea ceremonies always the same?+
Especially in today’s fast-paced world, we often lack routines, rituals, and consistency. Through these programs, we give you the opportunity to integrate simple, practical, and effective daily routines into your everyday life, helping you create stability, grounding, and balance.
Products and ProgramsSind die Home-Kuren vegan?+
The Sleep Well Home Cure is vegan.
The Inner Beauty Home Cure is 98% vegan. The included body scrub is not 100% plant-based due to the honey it contains. You can replace this body scrub with your preferred scrub during the cure if needed.
The essentials of the Good Gut Feeling Home Cure are vegan. However, some included recipes are not vegan. The non-plant-based ingredients can easily be replaced with vegan alternatives. This makes this cure suitable for you even if you are vegan.
Products and ProgramsWhat if I have to stop the Home Cure?+
Listen to your body. If necessary, you can pause the Home Cure and continue it at a later time if needed.
Products and ProgramsCan I repeat the Home Cure more than once?+
Yes, a European Ayurveda® Home Cure can be carried out several times a year if needed, but not directly back-to-back.
Products and ProgramsShould I avoid certain foods during the Home Cure?+
Yes. During the Home Cure, we recommend avoiding processed foods, sugar, caffeine, alcohol, and hard-to-digest meals.
Products and ProgramsCan I do the Home Cure on my own at home?+
Yes, the Home Cures are designed so that healthy individuals can safely carry them out at home without therapeutic supervision.
Please note: If you have any pre-existing medical conditions, are pregnant, or are unsure, please consult your doctor or therapist to determine whether one of our Home Cures is suitable for you.
Good Gut FeelingIs the “Good Gut Feeling” Home Cure a type of Panchakarma cure?+
The Good Gut Feeling Home Cure is a gentle Ayurvedic cleanse that can be conveniently carried out at home without therapeutic supervision. It does not include invasive cleansing techniques such as enemas, making it easy to follow independently. For a full Panchakarma cure, however, we recommend visiting a specialised Ayurvedic retreat, such as our European Ayurveda Resort Sonnhof.
Products and ProgramsWhy should I not eat raw food during the Home Cure?+
In Ayurveda, we recommend avoiding raw food completely during a Home Cure, as it requires a lot of energy to be digested and can therefore often overburden our digestive fire.
If you do not want to completely avoid raw food, try to consume it before 2:00 p.m. and avoid it afterward.
Products and ProgramsIs it normal for my skin to react?+
The skin is our body's largest detoxification organ. Therefore, it is normal for it to react when we change our eating habits and lifestyle.
If your skin reacts, it is a sign that your body is detoxifying.
Sleep WellMy tongue is coated after drinking the evening milk. Is that normal?+
Due to detoxification, a coated tongue can occur. This is completely normal.
A slight coating on the tongue after drinking the evening milk is also normal. You should be able to gently scrape it off.
Inner BeautyWhat should I do if I cannot tolerate the shot?+
If you cannot tolerate the shot, you can leave it out.
The ginger it contains has a very stimulating and warming effect and may be too intense for people with a high Pitta dosha.
You can also try diluting the shot with water or drinking only half of it and taking it more frequently instead.
Pay attention to what feels good for you.
Inner BeautyWhat should I do if I cannot tolerate the facial oil?+
If you cannot tolerate the facial oil, you can either reduce the dosage and use it only once a day, apply it only every second day, or omit it completely.
Observe what feels best for you.
Inner BeautyMy skin condition has worsened within the first few days. Should I continue the Home Cure?+
A worsening of the skin condition indicates that something is happening in your body. This process is intended to be triggered by the Home Cure. In this case, you can continue with the Home Cure.
However, if it is an allergic reaction or a rash, discontinue the relevant products and consult a doctor.
Products and ProgramsDo I lose weight during the Home Cure?+
It depends. Weight loss varies from person to person.
It is possible that the dietary changes lead to weight loss, but this is not the goal of the Home Cure. The focus is on a well-functioning metabolism and a good body awareness.
Products and programsWho are the home cures intended for?+
The Sleep Well Home Cure is for anyone who wants to improve their sleep or explore this topic in more depth.
The Inner Beauty Home Cure is especially interesting for women who want to focus on self-love, mindfulness, self-discovery, beauty, and European Ayurveda®, but also for anyone who simply wants to do something good for themselves.
We recommend the Good Gut Feeling Home Cure for anyone who wants to support their digestion, integrate routines and rituals for healthy digestion into their daily life, and make a gentle dietary transition.
Products and programsI have a medical condition and I’m not sure if I can do the Home Cure.+
In this case, we recommend that you consult your doctor, therapist, or alternative practitioner and discuss the Home Cure with them.
Products and ProgramsI can’t tolerate everything. What can I do?+
Leave out the products, spices, foods, and supplements that do not suit you. You can replace them with others that you tolerate and that are good for you, and adapt the recipes accordingly.
Products and programsI cannot tolerate ginger or spices. What options are there?+
Simply leave out ginger and any spices you cannot tolerate. You can still do the cure.
Products and programsI have bloating. What can I do?+
If you have bloating, these tips may help:
Give yourself a gentle abdominal massage.
Avoid gas-producing foods such as beans, cabbage, and carbonated drinks.
Eat slowly and chew each bite thoroughly.
Drink peppermint tea or Agni Trunk to help soothe the stomach.
Use digestive spices such as anise, fennel, caraway, asafoetida (hing), ajwain, or trikatu.
Incorporate movement into your daily routine, such as taking a short walk.
Products and programsI really enjoy doing sports. Can I do that during a Home Cure?+
Absolutely! Exercise is very important.
However, you may need to make your sessions a bit gentler so as not to overstrain your system. Therefore, listen carefully to your body.
Products and programsI have a celebration during my Home Cure. What can I do?+
Exceptions are part of life and are perfectly okay. You can continue your Home Cure despite the celebration, or you can take a day off and simply add that day to the end of your Home Cure.
Products and programsI can’t implement my morning routines. Are there other options?+
If you are having difficulty implementing your morning routine, you can try the following:
Establish an evening routine: If you have little time or energy in the morning, move some activities to the evening.
Mini-routines: Start with short, simple rituals that only take a few minutes and initially leave out parts of the routine.
Set priorities: Identify the most important elements of your routine that benefit you and focus on those. It is better to do a few things consistently than to try to do too much at once.
Products and programsI have trouble moving the oil around in my mouth. Is there an alternative?+
You can try using less oil and moving it slowly back and forth in your mouth. If it doesn’t work at all, tongue scraping alone is sufficient.
As an alternative to mouth oil, you can try a saltwater solution or a herbal rinse.
Products and programsI have to take medication – can I do the Home Cure?+
If you are taking medication, check with your doctor or alternative practitioner whether you can do a Home Cure at the same time and whether there may be any interactions.
Products and programsI don’t want to give up nicotine, alcohol, etc. – what can I do?+
Abstaining from stimulants enhances the effect of the Home Cure.
If you do not want to give them up completely, try to reduce them instead.
Products and programsI work night shifts – what should I do?+
To successfully follow a home cure while working night shifts, it is important to maintain a regular sleep schedule and create a dark sleeping environment.Pay attention to balanced, light meals and avoid caffeine shortly before going to sleep. Regular exercise and relaxation techniques can help reduce stress. Stay well hydrated and clearly communicate your working hours to friends and family.
Adjust the home cure to your individual needs and responses.
Products and ProgramsI lack energy. What can I do?+
When experiencing low energy, make sure you get enough sleep and combine it with a balanced diet and sufficient water intake. Regular physical activity and breaks in daily life can also help increase your energy level. Stress management techniques such as meditation or breathing exercises can additionally support energy maintenance.
Our tip for you – energy drink:
This stimulates circulation.
Warning! If you experience hot flashes or have high blood pressure, use only a small amount of ginger.
Preparation:
1 tbsp chopped ginger, 1–2 tbsp lemon juice, a pinch of salt and pepper, and 1 tsp honey, pour over 1 cup of hot or warm water and drink.
On hot days, add fresh mint.
Products and programsI am constantly hungry. What can I do?+
Make sure to include enough protein in your main meals and cover all five tastes.
Drinking herbal tea and water can also help increase your feeling of fullness.
Alternatively, you can plan a healthy snack. You can find ideas for this in the recipe collections of your Home Cure.
Enjoy your meals mindfully and chew each bite well.
Products and programsI have a headache. What can I do?+
Headaches can occur due to dietary changes as well as detoxification.
In particular, caffeine or sugar withdrawal can lead to headaches during the first days of the Home Cure.
As home remedies for headaches, we recommend:
Sprinkle a slice of lemon with salt and bite firmly into the lemon slice
Peppermint oil for the temples and neck
Feverfew capsules (Dr. Böhm)
Rest & relaxation
Drink plenty of fluids
Products and programsI can’t give up coffee. Are there alternatives?+
Reducing or avoiding coffee is especially recommended for the Good Gut Feeling Home Cure, as it is a gentle fasting cure.
As alternatives, you can drink grain coffee or lupin coffee, as well as chai or matcha with plant-based milk.
Within the Sleep Well Home Cure and Inner Beauty Home Cure, coffee consumption should be reduced. This means you do not have to give it up completely.
In general, all recommendations within the cures are optional. Ultimately, you decide whether you want to avoid coffee or not.
Products and programsIs it a fasting cure?+
The Good Gut Feeling Home Cure is a gentle form of fasting cure.
The Inner Beauty Home Cure and the Sleep Well Home Cure are not fasting cures.
Products and programsI have had an eating disorder – is the Home Cure suitable for me?+
We recommend that you consult your doctor or therapist to determine whether the Home Cure is suitable for you. Since this is not a strict diet, it should generally be possible. However, make sure to maintain a healthy relationship with food and avoid any extremes.
If you are currently in treatment, we advise against doing a Home Cure.
Products and programsIs the Home Cure compatible with work and family life?+
The Home Cures are designed to be suitable for everyday life. However, this does not mean that you won’t need to make small adjustments in order to implement the program.
Since you can extend each Home Cure, it is also possible to make it more gentle and flexible.
Products and ProgramsKann ich die Home-Kur durchführen, wenn ich körperliche Beschwerden habe?+
If you have physical complaints, we recommend consulting your doctor, alternative practitioner, or therapist before starting a Home Cure.
During the Home Cure, it is especially important to listen to yourself and your body and only do what is appropriate for you and feels right.
Products and ProgramsCan I do the Home Cure if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?+
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it is essential that you discuss the Home Cure with your doctor or alternative practitioner beforehand.
Some supplements, spices, teas, and certain yoga exercises may not be recommended during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Therefore, special caution is always advised.
Products and ProgramsWhy are my teeth and gums more sensitive than before the Home Cure?+
Due to tongue scraping and oil pulling, changes occur in the oral cavity. These can initially make the teeth and gums more sensitive.
Don’t worry, this will soon settle again and is a sign of cleansing in the oral cavity.
Products and ProgramsCan I continue my hobbies and spend my free time as usual during my Home Cure?+
You can and should continue your hobbies during the Home Cure.
Regarding your leisure time, it is important that you take plenty of time for yourself.
Products and programsCan I eat raw foods during my home cure?+
During the home cure (depending on which one you choose), it is recommended to reduce or avoid raw foods.
However, these are only recommendations and not strict rules. Especially for the “Good Gut Feeling” Home Cure, avoiding raw foods is strongly recommended in order to ensure an optimal course of the program.
Products and programsIs it possible to go through the Home Cure more slowly?+
Yes. You can extend the Home Cure over a longer period of time.

Products and programsWho is the home cure suitable for?+

Absolutely. All Home Cures are designed to be suitable for everyday life.
You can extend the Home Cure if you cannot integrate everything into your daily routine and make it more gentle in this way. In general, however, you should still plan time off and dedicated moments for the cure so that its effects can unfold properly.
Products and programsIs the Home Cure a diet?+
The Sleep Well Home Cure and the Inner Beauty Home Cure are not diets—at most, they involve a dietary change, if you choose to do so. These two Home Cures offer a combination of lifestyle recommendations, nutrition tips including recipes, and suitable products. The goal is to gradually integrate European Ayurveda® into your everyday life step by step.
The Good Gut Feeling Home Cure is a very gentle form of fasting. However, we would not describe it as a diet, as it includes at least 2, usually 3 meals per day.
GeneralWhat is European Ayurveda®?+
Ayurveda means “the knowledge of life” and is a more than 5,000-year-old Indian healing system that maintains health and treats illness by viewing body, mind, and soul as a unified whole.
European Ayurveda® combines traditional Ayurvedic practices with regional products, environmental awareness, yoga, and meditation, adapted to the European lifestyle. It offers a unique connection between traditional Indian Ayurveda and modern Western medicine. This holistic health concept integrates Ayurvedic and naturopathic knowledge for diagnosis, therapy, and prevention, tailored to the needs of Europeans.
