In my last post I went into great detail about the value of synchronizing our lifestyle to nature's rhythms on a daily basis. We talked about how each section of the day is governed by a certain energy and how we can benefit from using those times/energies for specific activities. I would like to finish that idea with these two thoughts:
- what an ideal daily routine would look like (adapted to today's world, a bit) - why Ayurveda believes routine to be one of the most effective tools in preserving health Here is an ideal Ayurvedic daily routine:
Nourishing food, proper rest and regular exercise are commonly recognized health principles. We all agree, and do our best to abide by them. What I found unique to Ayurveda is the strong emphasis on a daily routine based on the changing energetic qualities of the day.
So in this post, I would like to explain how three overarching energetic principles in nature act on us in a daily, 24-hour cycle of work, rest and nourishment.
Most people associate massage with a masseuse or a spa. In other words, someone else massaging us. We all know how good it feels, but alas, it is that rare luxury only possible when time and budget allow. This is where Ayurveda shines brightly with a simple solution- just massage yourself! It one of the least known tools for maintaining health, and possibly one of the most effective ones.
