Ayurvedic Spring Clean

Spring is the best time for Ayurvedic Spring Clean.

All dis-ease begin in the GUT. This is also refered to your third brain.
This is your instrument for discernment — thus the saying “trust your gut feeling.” This is why the gut is being attacked.

You MUST keep the pipes clean! When the pipes are clogged, your body is not absorbing any nutrients — the parasites are siphoning them. Parasites manipulate the host by sending distorted signals to the brain. Detoxing this area is SUPER IMPORTANT right now — especially in the era of disinformation.

During the colder season, the fire of digestion makes food desirable and unavoidable. This leads to seasonal overload, heavy foods and large and regular amounts of unctuous foods are consumed. Just as a mountain collects snow in winter so the body accumulates mucus or ama, undigested particles over the Winter season.

Toxins, mucus or Ama then begins to flow as the Spring turns to Summer liquifying accumulations, just as snow on the mountains slowly melts as the warm weather approaches. Ama moving in the Spring, according to Ayurvedic science, may be the underlying cause of many bodily anomalies. Therefore, a seasonal regime is in order, to move ama and embrace the coming Spring and Summer with a clear light and happy feeling.

Signs of AMA in the digestive tract are changes in taste perception, loss of appetite, indigestion, malabsorption with vitamin and mineral deficiencies, bloating, gas, constipation, diarrhoea sticky stools. Also AMA can cause blocked sinuses, nasal drip, skin rash, joint pain, mucous congesting throat and chest, lack of focus, headache and lethargy. Ama is also often responsible for bad breath, and strongly odorous urine, and stools.

According to Ayurveda, AMA when not removed from the channels of the body, re-circulates and becomes visaya or poison.

Ama needs a pathway to leave the body channels and not recirculate..

Clearing the Sinuses with Anu Thailam
A little ditty about Sinus Oil, Anu Thailam, in 1999, I purchased 120 bottles of Anu Thailam Sinus oil from India. Because nasal oil is part of the ancient cleansing program called panchakarma, I was very excited.

All 120 bottles arrived and every bottle leaked. Nor could I convince almost anybody of the incredible benefits of oiling the nasal passage. So we gave the 120 away as gifts to our Ayurvedic people and now, after that rebounded by word of mouth, more than 1000 bottles per year are used by yoga teachers, naturopaths and enthusiasts.
