Caring for your Heart: The Holistic Approach of Ayurveda to a Healthy Heart ♥️

In Ayurveda, the heart (Hridaya) is considered as one of the most important organs responsible for maintaining overall health and well-being. The heart is the seat of consciousness (Atman) and plays a crucial role in the circulation of vital life force (Prana) and blood (Rakta) throughout the body. “In Eastern medicine, the heart, and not the brain, is the centre of consciousness. Therefore, any heart condition points to deep-rooted problems of self-identity, emotions and consciousness. “1 Western culture focuses on individual achievement and constant competition, rather than spiritual connection with others, so our hearts are sidelined and often replaced by ego.

Sinusitis can be acute, or chronic. Acute sinusitis usually lasts for about four weeks, while chronic sinusitis can last for more than a month or even several years with or without symptoms.

Ayurvedic Breast Massage

The breasts are specialized structures located on the anterior chest wall. Underneath the skin above our chest muscles are the breasts’ mammary glands, which drain into the nipples via a network of ducts. It is important for women to understand the normal anatomy and function of their breasts so that any abnormalities can be detected and treated. Female breasts are rarely symmetrical. In most cases, one breast is usually slightly larger or smaller, higher or lower, or different in shape compared to the other. When fully developed, the female adult breast comprises 15–20 lobes with milk-producing glands and a network of branching ducts inside them.  These lobes are separated by bands of connective tissue that radiate out from the nipple like spokes from the middle of a bicycle wheel. There is lots of fat tissue within the breast. The amount of fat determines the size of the breast. The fatty tissue gives the breast its soft consistency. The breast contains modified sweat glands call...

          Life is hard. Every day it seems like a new challenge appears to test your patience. You may not realize that chronic stress can also lead to long-term health complications. Living in a constant state of fight-or-flight tells your body to produce too much cortisol which can lead to weight gain, diabetes, mood swings, fatigue, and many other conditions.
