Picture of The Day

Herbal Protection

A holistic approach to health and wellness includes the use of ayurvedic herbs and spices. The Indian traditional medical system known as Ayurveda places a strong emphasis on encouraging physical, mental, and spiritual wellness. The comprehensive strategy involves dietary changes, exercise, and lifestyle adjustments.

Cumin

The flavor of cumin is smokey and earthy. This spice is frequently used in Indian cuisine as well as Southwestern American cuisine.

Some evidence suggests that cumin shows significant antioxidant activities in some test procedures.

The effect cumin has on free radicals is suggested as the underlying reason for many of its pharmacological effects, which are:

  • antimicrobial

  • anticarcinogenic

  • antimutagenic

  • antidiabetic

  • diuretic

  • immunomodulatory (changes the body’s immune system)

  • estrogenic and anti-osteoporoticgastrointestinal

Manjistha

Common madder or Rubia cordifolia are other names for manjistha. This plant might contribute to a beneficial change in the gut flora. However, a person may need to ingest it in larger concentrations than those generally made available by manjistha in order to feel these effects. For this reason, someone would want to include manjistha in their diet or as part of a plan for gut healing.

In addition, a study conducted in 2020 on a substance obtained from the root of R. cordifolia raises the possibility of a phytomedicine for the treatment of bone ailments.

Boswellia

Boswellia is an Ayurvedic spice with anti-inflammatory properties. It may reduce joint pain, enhance oral health, and improve digestion, as well as increase breathing capacity in people with chronic asthma.

Triphala

The following three tiny medicinal fruits make up the Ayurvedic treatment known as Triphala:

  • amla (Emblica officinalis, or Indian gooseberry)

  • bibhitaki (Terminalia bellirica)

  • haritaki (Terminalia chebula)

Test-tube and animal studies show that Triphala may reduce inflammation caused by arthritis, as well as prevent or limit the growth of certain types of cancer.

🤯 TIP OF THE DAY

Neti Pot to Relieve a Cold: The Neti Pot technique Is a yogic approach that uses a pot filled with saline solution to purify the nostrils. The Neti Pot, although it has a longer spout, resembles a teapot and makes for a great tool for cleansing the nasal passage and opening up airways. When the procedure is carried out properly, this magical approach can clear mucus while also opening the sinuses and clearing blockages from the temple of the body.

Tilt your head to the side by about 45 degrees as you lean over a sink. Tip the pot up slightly, put the spout into your right nostril, and let the saline solution flow through. Now, start breathing through your lips. Right nasal canal> left nostril> and sink: this is how the saline solution will travel while clearing congestion and phlegm.

Heal A Cold - The Yogic Flow

This yoga flow can help you start a new way of approaching your health and fitness regime by helping you manifest improved immunity while easing the cold.

As you practice: Be patient with your body and face its challenges with an open mind and heart. When you're ready to move into each pose, make sure that you stay alert and focus on your breathing.

Shishuasana (Child’s pose)

The asana helps to kick start immunity and serves as a support for the lymphatic system. To begin, make sure your knees are shoulder width apart as you sit on your heels. Then, stretch your torso forward as you slide your belly between your thighs. Bring the center of your third eye to the mat in front of you. Following this, bring your arms out before you and let them rest peacefully. Hold the position for ten more breaths.

Adho Mukha Svanasana (Downward dog)

The next pose is Svanasana, which strengthens the shoulders, neck, and upper back and promotes blood flow and circulation throughout the entire body. Get down on your hands and knees, putting your hands just in front of your shoulders and your knees just beneath your hips. Turn your toes under and spread your palms out. Lift your knees off the ground as you exhale and stretch your tailbone from the back of your pelvis and as your heels touch the floor. Continue to hold this position for ten more breaths, and then, as you exhale, drop yourself into a lying position with your back touching the mat.

Setu Bandhasana (Bridge pose)

Setu Bandhasana helps to stimulate the meridian channels in the body and helps to increase blood flow for better circulation. The Bridge Pose is a restorative posture that gently invigorates, alleviates fatigue and strengthens the back muscles. It is a great pose for when you’re feeling under the weather as it not only warms your body but also calms the mind and improves mood. Laying down, bend both knees until your feet and knees are parallel and your heels are the closest they can get to your hips. Put your arms at your sides and relax. Then, lift your hips off towards the ceiling and hold this for about 5–10 breaths as you transition to the next pose.

Halasana (Plow pose)

Halasana can help to regulate the flow of oxygen and blood in your body, which are necessary for the healing of a cold. It is a great pose to open the chest and shoulders, create space between the shoulder blades, open the heart, release tension in the lower back and reduce stress. Halasana can also help relieve a head cold by promoting both blood circulation and lymphatic drainage in the upper body. Place your arms next to your body while lying down, palms pressed firmly to the ground. Lift your legs to a 90-degree angle. Lifting your pelvis off the floor as you exhale will then cause your legs to move back toward your head. Slowly drop your legs toward the floor above your head. To provide support, place your hands on your lower back. If you're comfortable, you can rest your arms next to your body while your toes are on the ground.
