Ayurveda is not just a stream of medicine that focuses on treatments and healing. It is a way of life evolved through generations, cultures and traditions, Ayurveda teaches you how to stay healthy and in harmony with nature. It believes in the principle – the physical body is the medium for righteous actions. Hence, Ayurveda advocates a healthy and systematic diet and lifestyle regime as a preventive measure and as a treatment tool to protect the body from undesirable effects.

Ayurveda emphasizes on a balanced diet acknowledging the seasons, the environment, the digestion power and the prakruthi (constitution) of the individual consuming it. Every ingredient in the food tends to either increase or decrease the doshas and hence one should be careful in choosing the ingredients and combinations of food. The same way, a system with a tradition of 5000 years cannot go wrong when it explains in detail about the specific regimens to follow daily and based on the seasons. A good night’s sleep, a sattvic diet or even the way you laugh or think has an impact on your well-being. Well, there is much more! Ayurvedic diet and lifestyle are not about rules and regulations to follow; rather they pave the way for everyone to live in tune with nature.
