In this article I would like to talk about the oldest medical system.

Ayurveda comes from ancient India, but continues to be used today,

even in beauty salons.

Did you know that one of the oldest of the world-class comprehensive medical systems is still available today?

Ayurveda stands for "long life" ("ayuh") and "knowledge" ("veda").

How to apply this knowledge about a long life, about harmony with oneself and nature?

Ayurveda harmony of life

Ayurveda teaches that life is the harmony of the supreme soul (Atma), mind (manas), senses (indriya), as well as the body (sharira). It is these elements that make up the constitution of man, which is called prakriti.

Prakriti also depends on the balance of physical and mental energies.

Thus, according to the teachings of Ayurveda,

both the spiritual and the bodily in a person are interrelated,

and it is in our power to maintain this.

Ayurveda is the harmony of the physical and spiritual

Ayurveda science of health, longevity and beauty

The main purpose of Ayurveda is to keep the body healthy with natural products. They should help prevent diseases.

IMPORTANT: Unlike many practices, this one fights the causes of ailments, not their consequences.

According to Ayurveda medicine, it is important to start from the constitution of the body (dosha):

• Cotton wool - people of this type are thin, tall. They have dry skin. Inherent and emotional.
• Pitta is people with a figure of the stredentistical type, problem skin. By nature, ambitious, focused in business.
• Kapha is the owners of a thin waist with rounded shapes, oily skin. Suffer from constant colds. They know how to listen to others, appreciate emotions

So, for each type, its own diet is recommended: for Vata you need oily and heavy food, for Pitta - dry and cold, in Kapha you need to eat light and warm dishes.

Ayurveda involves proper nutrition depending on the constitution of the body

Ayurveda oils

Oils are one of the main ways of influencing the body according to ancient teachings. They act both for aesthetic purposes and with therapeutic purposes.

• Sesame - Ayurveda ranks it among the most useful, because it perfectly nourishes, warms, while acting deeply on the tissues. If you suffer from pain in the joints, rub this oil into problem areas - a high calcium content will definitely help. Also, a great effect is on the hair - they grow faster, get stronger
• Coconut oil - makes the skin look like velvet, delicate, and hair eliminates the problem of split ends. Thanks to hyaluronic acid, the skin is moisturized, nourished, and ages more slowly. In addition, this oil has antibacterial properties and protects against ultraviolet radiation.
• Dhavantaram oil is a remedy named after the god-healer has in its composition more than 50 extracts of plant origin, toning the skin. However, it also strengthens the bones, and relieves tension from the muscles.

IMPORTANT: In general, there are a lot of oils, and when using appropriate massage techniques, they act even better.

Cosmetics Ayurveda

The main rule for the manufacture of such cosmetics is naturalness. In this case, all components exclude the occurrence of allergic reactions or addiction. And, most importantly, all the ingredients are selected in such a way that they do not conflict with each other.

The choice of cosmetics surprises with its diversity: soaps, toothpaste, lotions, balms, shampoos and conditioners, paints, masks, creams, oils.

Cook it all for 15 minutes, not forgetting to stir. Then make the fire smaller, boiling the mixture for a few more minutes.

Ayurveda women's health

The teachings of Ayurveda go against the usual statement that irritability, spasms, convulsions, migraines and other harbingers of the female cycle are normal. This is a violation of the so-called metabolic balance.

About conception and pregnancy, a woman can get information from the treatise of the Vedas "Pinda Siddihi". How to conceive a baby of the desired sex, what dishes there are during his gestation - these questions have interested women at all times.

As for the menstrual cycle, Ayurveda treats it as an action that cleanses the woman's body. And in order for menstruation to be regular, it is necessary to create light loads for yourself, and during the cycle in general to rest for 2-3 days. Sports, work in the garden or garden, hard work around the house - this is all forbidden in these 2-3 days, but creative activity is welcome.

As for premenstrual syndrome, spicy, salty, acidic foods and fermentation products are highly undesirable at this time. As for the emotional state, it is important to avoid anything that can cause severe irritation.

Ayurveda gives a lot of advice regarding women's health and harmony
