January. Grail of Ayurveda

Оглавление

Have you ever noticed what impact the waking time has on your day, productivity, energy, and mood? How FOOD pushes you into a certain mood, self-esteem, cheerfulness, and observation, and sometimes it works the other way and acts as a sleeping pill. Have you ever contemplated the reason?

Here is my experience. I do not remember when I heard about Ayurveda first, as it was quite a long time ago. I was a child when I found a book in my home library and read it, however, I did not understand anything. Years after, I started doing yoga, attended yoga festivals; I realized that somewhere in this science lies the «Holy Grail» – obvious yet priceless knowledge that was long forgotten. Perhaps the time has come for me, as the answer came by itself from video bloggers, Vladimir Drevs being one of them.

What did I take from this? I understood the principle «nature equals man». I will explain my thoughts below, and tell you what doshas are, giving a simple table that hangs on the wall in my house to remind me of the universe’s laws. I say right away that there is neither religion nor esoterics, but thousand-year knowledge, coming down to our days. As this science has come down to us through the centuries without losing its relevance, it means that it has stood the test of time and became antifragile, in contrast to the constantly changing methods of traditional medicine.

So, let’s go my friends!


Your day is life in miniature.

Robin Sharma


Ayurveda (from Sanskrit «ayu» and «veda» – «knowledge of life» and «science of life» / «knowledge of life expectancy») is the traditional system of Indian medicine. Ayurveda bases on the connection between mind and body.

Man is like nature. If we consider God as the energy of nature, then everything present in nature also exists in man. All nature’s qualities and manifestations exist in man and show up the same way. Therefore, everything happening around us affects us greatly. Being ignorant to it can be a big mistake, as we are a part of nature, an inherent part of it. Being in balance with nature means being healthy and feeling content. By resenting, we create an imbalance that results in illnesses and premature death.

Ayurveda teaches that everything in nature consists of five elements.

Ether, or space where is everything that exists.

Air is the driving part of all types of energy.

Fire is energy, heat, transforming everything in nature.

Water is a connecting substance that conveys information.

Earth gives structure to everything in nature.

These five elements are present in all three traditions of Tibetan, Indian, and Chinese medicine. Ayurveda combines these five elements into three main elements:

– the element of the wind: Vata,

– the element of fire: Pitta,

– the element of phlegm: Kapha.

All these three elements are called doshas: Vata dosha, Pitta dosha, Kapha dosha. Dosha creates the body, supports and nourishes it, and at the same time, it is what destroys the body. The body is born out of these elements and the body dies from them. If these elements are maintained with balance, then the human body functions for a long time and remains healthy.

There are two types of Ayurvedic constitution: Prakriti and Vikriti.

Prakriti is a set of elements that are formed at birth, the genetic information that is embedded in our DNA (in the Otzhis, in the language of Ayurveda) and determines the main traits of a person such as height, eye color, hair color, tendencies in behavior, nutrition, and professions. Through time and self-development -depending on the environment, climate, upbringing, daily routine, nutrition, or as a consequence of these – the ratio of the elements can change. This can result in imbalance, and a person begins to deviate from Prakriti towards Vikriti – an abnormal state, which leads to illness. That is, the whole reason is a deviation from their individual constitution.

In fact, in order to be healthy and happy, a person just needs to adhere to his or her Prakriti. The tradition of Ayurveda and Tibetan medicine is based on this.

Here’s a simple example to determine your current state. According to these three Doshas, the human body completes its formation at 21 years old for women and at 24 for men. The way you are by this age (if there were no serious injuries or operations): your weight, physique, skin color, energy level, and appetite envisioned to be your perfect condition. Anything less or more is an excess or lack of dosha – something that at this stage destroys the body. Based on this, you can influence this situation, restore balance, and bring the body into a state of harmony and comfort.

Today, we are greatly influenced by the environment; as the modern speed of life, hustle, huge amount of information, all kinds of radiation, stress, poor sleep, smoking, alcohol, food quality, fast food and much more did not exist a hundred years ago.


Doshas influence us constantly as they change every four hours, throughout 24 hours a day. Every four hours, one dosha prevails and affects the general condition. In other words, there are times of vata, pitta and kapha, both during the day and night. Understanding this allows you to choose activities, food, which maintains the dominant energy in and around you at this time.

Why do we need that? You will feel the answer to this question yourself. I will say this: do not blame me, but continue to live the same life, not keeping proper hours, diet, succumbing to laziness, lust, going on about habits and whims – this is living in ignorance, shifting responsibility for the quality of your life to everyone except yourself.

I do not want to overshare the theoretical part.


How do I apply this in my life?

First, I drew this table in A3 format for myself and hung it on the wall.

Second, I keep a regular sleeping schedule. Of course, this does not always work, but, in most cases, sleep from 10 p.m. to 6 am replenishes our strength perfectly, as the body produces sleep hormone melatonin from 10 p.m. to 2 a.m., and these hours are especially important for the body recovery.

Third, I do not eat until 10 a.m. at all, and my last meal is before 6 p.m. Thus, I start the autophagy process. (For the discovery of this process, the scientist received a Nobel Prize, and many who follow a healthy lifestyle and proper nutrition are now aware of this nutrition system).

Fourth, I start my day with articular gymnastics – this is a minimal set of exercises to wake up the body and start self-cleaning processes. There is also a contrast shower and two glasses of pure water with lemon or turmeric.

Fifth, I replenish my knowledge, listen to lectures, read books, attend yoga festivals, listen to different opinions, and analyze the results of people. Most importantly, I compare the person I feel I am today with the person I was yesterday. I truly feel my body and mind, and, thus, I see the full picture and evaluate the result.

Stay healthy!
