What is health according to Ayurveda?
In this blog, I discuss the Ayurvedic perspectives of what is health.
A healthy person is described in classical Ayurveda texts as:
โOne whose Doshas are balanced, whose digestive fire (Agni) is balanced, whose bodily tissues (Dhฤtus) and elimination processes (Malas) are functioning normally, and whose senses (Indriya), mind (Manas), and Self (ฤtmฤ) are filled with bliss, such a one is called a healthy person.โ
Happy Autumn Equinox
The literal meaning of the Latin word 'Equinox' is "the time of equal days and nights". It signifies a moment of stillness before the Earth shifts directions, and approximately equal forces of light and darkness.
In these fast-paced and rapidly changing times, 3 Autumnal Equinox themes are ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐, ๐๐๐๐, and ๐๐๐๐๐ for a new life cycle. As Autumn sets in, Vata Dosha predominates and requires balancing. Vata is responsible for all mind and body movement, and governs movement in Nature and the vast cosmos.
