In the science of Ayurveda we recognize the value of increasing peace and calm and handling negative emotions which we consider mental ama (or waste products) and employ several methods including the proper use of the mind and meditation to purify the mind and restore the flexibility and freedom of the unencumbered mind. By spending time in meditation you connect to the true self, where the mind can heal itself. Meditation is the direct route which takes you into Pure Awareness and your door to Cosmic awareness and wisdom. Experience it for yourself at our free October meditation challenge. Join us now!

SPRING CLEANING THE DOSHAS

Spring Cleaning the Doshas, Balancing Your Constitution to Stay Healthy

/0 Comments/in /by

The Ayurvedic science of living recognizes that the change of seasons affects the health of all living beings. Certain changes in diet, behaviour and medicines are prescribed as a “seasonal ayurvedic routine” or the spring cleaning the doshas to counter the bad effects of the season and capitalize on the good effects so we stay healthy. As winter dissipates we move from a period of cold that tends to make us accumulate mucous, and like dormancy in plants, takes energy and strength away from us creating a form of dormancy (a drying of juices). Spring starts the cycle of release where increasing heat and moisture thaws the accumulation of mucous and excess dosha beginning new growth and development (a renewal of juice). As the seasons change, the doshas also change and affect the human body and mind. If the diet, mode of living and routines are not changed the constitution can go out of balance and disease is certain to occur. Spring often aggravates allergies, hay fever and may produce spring colds. Read on to understand how to balance your constitution to stay healthy with a spring cleaning the dosha routine.

The heart of healing (why do only some heal)

/1 Comment/in /by

Have you ever wondered why some heal and others don’t? In my personal two and one half year journey I was wracked with “expert opinions from the outside” that often blew me off-course. I learned to find true guidance and developed insights in helping patients at the clinic that bring clarity. Is this the missing step you need?
