Ayurveda Challenge

21 Days

Cleanse and heal with Ayurveda

The change of seasons brings about many changes within the body. As winter melts into spring, the birds, bees, flowers, trees and human hearts are all nourished by more and more sunlight. We may bask in that sunlight, but often we find ourselves still sluggish from winter, with too much on our plates and seasonal allergies to boot! The wisdom of Ayurveda is here to help us balance the shift of seasons and get us glowing, not sneezing all spring.

Starts 1 September 2019

Spring is about new beginnings, setting roots that sustain us in summer and autumn. This spring, let’s commit to sustaining and thriving – through yoga, deep breaths and cleansed bodies!

Self Abhyanga

Using black sesame oil we will lather ourselves up at least twice each week, providing nourishment for the body, softening the skin and bringing balance to our Ayurvedic constitution (dosha).

• Reduce wrinkles
• Invigorate sense organs
• Calms the nervous system
• Promote better sleep

Ayurvedic Jams

This challenge includes two rasayanas – ayurvedic medicines – to promote good health.

Brahma rasayana – 42 herbs to balance fatigue, greying of hair, memory, strength, power of comprehension and intelligence

Ashvagandhadi rasayana – powerful blend of rejuvenative herbs to calm the nervous system, bring energy, reduce inflammation and increase immunity

Jala Neti

Spring is a time when we may experience allergies and sinus issues as the heaviness of winter starts to leave the body. Jala neti is beneficial for:

• Improved memory and concentration
• Relieve problems associated with the nasal and sinus cavities
• Preventative effect against head colds and sinusitis
• Can also cure or at least ease hay fever and pollen allergies

Tongue Scraping

The tongue is the mirror to all the organs of the body. In Ayurveda we clean the tongue each day to promote good health.

• Removes any build-up on the tongue, which, if left untreated, can lead to bad breath and may house a significant number of bacteria.
• Helps to balance the heavy and dulling qualities of Kapha dosha in your physiology.
• Improve your ability to taste your food.

Digestive Tea

We will make use of Ayurvedic digestive teas to assist in the transition from winter to spring, removing unwanted toxins from the digestive tract.

These teas are very simple to make and lovely to drink.

Oil Pulling

Oil pulling is an ancient Ayurvedic remedy for oral health and detoxification. We will use organic black sesame oil to pull harmful bacteria, fungus, and other organisms out of the mouth, teeth, gums and even throat.

• Overall strengthening of the teeth, gums and jaw
• Prevention of bad breath
• Prevention of dry lips, mouth and throat

1 Day Fast (Optional)

Fasting has many benefits for the body but is also a technique used to strengthen the mind.

• Changes the function of cells, genes and hormones
• Help you lose weight and belly fat
• Reduce insulin resistance, lowering your risk of type 2 diabetes
• Can reduce oxidative stress and inflammation in the body
• Induces various cellular repair processes
