Ayurveda: The Ancient Science of Natural Healing
Ayurveda is a holistic healing science from India that focuses on balance between body, mind, and spirit. It works by identifying each person's unique constitution (the doshas) and using diet, daily routines, herbs, and therapies to restore harmony.
Understanding the Three Doshas
- Vata — movement, creativity; when imbalanced: anxiety, dryness.
- Pitta — digestion, metabolism; when imbalanced: inflammation, irritability.
- Kapha — structure, stability; when imbalanced: sluggishness, weight gain.
Popular Therapies
Panchakarma — deep detox (Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Nasya). Abhyanga — warm herbal oil massage. Ksharsutra — medicated-thread therapy for fistula/piles. Always consult a qualified practitioner.
Simple Daily Routine (Dinacharya)
Wake before sunrise, tongue scraping, light movement or yoga, warm water, mindful meals, and early sleep—small habits that keep doshas balanced.
Common Herbs
Ashwagandha, Turmeric, Triphala, Brahmi — chosen according to your dosha and health needs. Talk to a practitioner before using herbs with prescription meds.
Safety
Ayurvedic therapies are safe when delivered by trained professionals. Disclose any chronic conditions or medications to your healthcare providers before starting treatments.
