Essential Oils for Restoring Balance in Spring

Essential Oils for Restoring Balance in Spring
A Lovely Monday Morning to You All!
PLEASE STAY SAFE FROM CORONA VIRUS. FOLLOW GOOD HAND HYGIENE and MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISTANCING

Spring season is here now. We all survived long nights, frigid temperatures, drying indoor heat, cold-flu, and fading tan lines. Spring is the time for new growth, new beginning, fresh potential, and spring cleaning. It is ‘Kapha’ time of the year.

Spring

According to Ayurveda (Ayu=life, Veda=knowledge, is a comprehensive system of healing), universe is composed of 5 Elements:

Ether, Air, Fire, Water, and Earth

These five elements combine to make three Doshas, that controls all the function of our mind and body:

          Vata(Air and Ether) –Fall-Early Winter, Later life

          Pitta(Water and Fire) –Summer, Adolesent-Middle age

          Kapha(Water and Earth) –Late winter-Early Spring,    Birth-Puberty

Three Doshas

Kapha is comprised of water and earth element. According to Ayurveda this dosha is slow, moist, cool, heavy, smooth and responsible for the stability, lubrication, and support of our physical body. Characters of a Kapha personality; have big eyes, smooth, dense skin, have exceptional endurance, robust, and strong, love to eat, enjoy stable partnership and love children, a loyal friend, warm, compassionate, have patience, easy going. Out of balance Kapha people could be lethargic, have food cravings, low metabolism, can gain weight easily, feeling of sadness, depression, congestion. To keep Kapha balanced, they should eat dry, warming, pungent, bitter flavored food that has stimulating properties, and stay away from sweet, sour, salty, oily foods, exercise daily, follow a yoga routine, keep a gratitude journal, go on outing with friends.

Together with consuming balanced healthy diet, exercising, Aromatherapy (an alternative healthcare modality) is another good and easy way of restoring balance of heavy, cold and wet nature of excess Kapha dosha and to achieve abundant health. Aromatherapy is a science and art of using Essential oils for our physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Essential oils are natural, concentrated, volatile, liquid aromatic extract with individual therapeutic properties from different parts of plants and have been used since centuries in beauty products and to cure various ailments. Warm, spicy, and invigorating aromas are generally the most balancing for Kapha dosha. With proper dilution, essential oils can be used to massage, in bath, in diffuser, or can be inhaled directly. Some of these Essential Oils include:

Bergamot, Orange, Ylang ylang, Cardamom, Cedar, Cinnamon, Ginger, Black Pepper, Clove, Frankincense, Rose, Marjoram, Eucalyptus, TeaTree, ClarySage and Tulsi

Good Carrier oils to make dilution: Mustard seed, Almond, and Grape seed

Aromatherapy Safety for Babies and Children

Aromatherapy Safety for Babies and Children

PLEASE STAY SAFE FROM CORONA VIRUS. FOLLOW GOOD HAND HYGIENE and MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISTANCING

Do you know………We avoid using Essential Oils on a newborn unless it is

            Aromatherapy Safety for Babies

utmost necessary that outweighs the potential risk. No matter the brand, quality Essential oils are used typically highly diluted for babies and young children (12 yrs and younger) as compared to use with adults to avoid redness or any adverse reactions, because newborns have very tender skin and organs.

 

Use 1-2 drops of essential oil to an ounce (30 ml) of a suitable carrier oil such as; coconut, olive, or almond oil following adequate dilution guidelines as follows (detailed in ‘Essential Oil Safety’ by Robert Tisserand and Rodney Young):

AGE     Percentage        Max # Drops
infant – 2 yrs     0.1% – 0.2%       1 – 2 drops/oz of carrier oil
2 – 6 yrs     1% – 2%       9 – 24 drops/ oz of carrier oil
6 – 14 yrs     1.5% – 3+%      12 – 28 drops/ oz of carrier oil

Measurements/conversions (by volume)
30 ml= 1 fl oz = 600 drops = 2 Tbsp
5 ml = 1/6 fl oz = 100 drops = 1 tsp
1 ml = 1/30 fl oz=20 drops = 1/5tsp

Intermittently diffusing the oils in low level in baby’s room is an effective way to reap the benefit of Essential Oil molecules or apply appropriately diluted oil to the back, stomach, chest, or bottoms of the baby’s feet. Always test the diluted oil on yourself first and then on a very small-tiny area on baby to be sure their skin will tolerate the blend. Peppermint, Eucalyptus, and Rosemary essential oils are all avoided in younger children (12 yrs and under) because they contain a chemical constituent called cineol 1,8 and menthol.

Benefits of Using Neti Pot

Benefits of Using Neti Pot
A Lovely Monday Morning to You All!
PLEASE STAY SAFE FROM CORONA VIRUS. FOLLOW GOOD HAND HYGIENE and MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISTANCING

Do you know………..A neti pot is used for nasal irrigation. It simply means the act of flushing out our nasal cavity. The word “Neti”, is derived from Sanskrit for “Nasal Cleansing.”  Neti pot has been used in Indian culture for centuries to treat respiratory problems and originated in Ayurvedic medicine.

                         Benefits of Using Neti Pot

It is becoming popular around the world and in Western culture too, because unlike over-the-counter medications, neti pot use doesn’t cause any unpleasant side effects. In fact, many doctors recommend using a neti pot for general nasal congestion, as well as colds, allergies, and sinus infections. I want to share my personal experience about neti pot use. This time during my travel, I had a bad episode of Vertigo. As usual, I took some Allopathic medicines to control my Vertigo. I did get a temporary relief, but had recurrence. Fortunately, I came across a Yoga guru at my relative’s place, who highly recommended and demonstrated the use of this amazing neti pot. I reluctantly tried it and immediately felt such a relief in my ear pressure together with clearing of my nasal passage. I showed my gratitude to him and used it once daily for a week. Since then, I have been using neti pot regularly 2-3 times a week.

Neti pot is a device that cleanses and refreshes the nasal passage. Neti pot resembles a long spouted teapot and can be made from various materials, such as plastic, steel, copper, or ceramic. Our nasal passage is the body’s first defense against irritants, allergens and even pollution (harmful particles) keeping them away from our lungs and respiratory system. Using a neti pot helps flush mucus out and keeps our nasal passage healthy. Benefits of using Neti pot:

  • Neti pot is affordable and easily accessible
  • Clear the nostrils to facilitate easy breathing
  • Remove excess mucous and nasal congestion
  • Ease sinus headaches
  • Reduce the need for antiallergy medicines
  • Reduce pollen or allergens in nasal passages
  • Relieve nasal dryness
  • Reduce cold and flu symptoms
  • Alleviate sinus headaches
  • Improve sense of smell and taste
  • Prevent upper respiratory infections and cold
  • Reduce snoring

Safety and How to Use a Neti Pot:

  • Pour saline solution (3/4th full) in a clean neti pot.
  • Lean forward over a sink and tilt head sideways at about a 45 degree angle. Place the neti pot’s spout in the upper nostril (the one closer to the ceiling).
  • Making sure to breathe through your open mouth, slowly pour half of the neti pot’s solution into that upper nostril. You will immediately see the neti pot solution begin to come out of the lower nostril. Which is a signal that the nasal irrigation process has begun.
  • Repeat the same process on the other side.
  • The whole process doesn’t take more than around 5 minutes. If any of the solution runs into your throat just spit it out and blow your nose to get rid of any leftover solution and/or mucus. Repeat the process with your other nostril. Make sure clean your neti pot well after each and every use, let it air dry, store in a clean area.
  • Use the cleanest and purest water such as, filtered, sterile, distilled water (can be purchased from stores), or boiled tap water (cool down to lukewarm temperature), because we are trying to remove contaminants, not add more.
  • You can use sea salt, kosher salt or a plain cooking salt for neti pot solution. Avoid using iodized salt as it can cause stinging.
  • Saline solution can be bought, a pre-made sinus rinse or can be made at home simply by combining one cup of purified water (as mentioned above) with a quarter teaspoon to a half teaspoon of non-iodized salt, stir to dissolve, and use.
  • Person with a history of nosebleeds may want to avoid nasal irrigation.
  • Discontinue use if sinus issues worsen.

Repeated this twice a day for couple of days. By second day, I was very happy to notice significant reduction in pain and swelling.

The Incredible Number 7

 

The Incredible Number 7
A Lovely Morning to You All!
PLEASE STAY SAFE FROM CORONA VIRUS (COVID-19). FOLLOW GOOD HAND HYGIENE and MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISTANCING

Do you know………During my yoga and meditation sessions, number 7 is mentioned often either for repetition of a particular sequence or chanting of some mantra. Out of my curiosity, I started searching and was astounded with the wealth of information. Here, I am sharing with you some of the significance of number 7 without going into details.

     Lucky Number 7

7 is the number of completeness and perfection both physical as well as spiritual. The number 7 is tied directly to God’s creation of all things and much more prevalent in nature than most of us realize; There are 7 oceans, 7 continents, 7 vertebrae in the neck, 7 basic chakras in our body, 7 layers of skin (2 outer and 5 inner), ocean waves roll in sevens, 7 colors in rainbow, music has 7 notes, there are 7 directions, the Jewish Menorah has 7 candles, the earth was created in 7 days (including a day of rest, hence 7 days in a week), a cube has 7 dimensions (including the inside), there are 7 deadly sins, 7 virtues, 7 gifts of the Holy Spirit, 7 classical planets, 7 hills in Istanbul, Rome and Jerusalem, 7 wonders of the ancient world. The number 7 is also important in Hinduism, Islam, Buddhism, and Judaism. The number 7 is also featured in the Book of Revelation (7 churches, 7 angels, 7 seals, 7 trumpets, and 7 stars). The Koran speaks of 7 heavens and Muslim pilgrims walk around the Kaaba in Mecca 7 times. In Hinduism there are 7 higher worlds and 7 underworlds, 7 sages or Saptarishi, 7 stars in a constellation called Saptharishi Mandalam (Great Bear constellation, clearly visible from earth in the northern direction and it looks like a kite in the space), 7 promises, or Saptapadi, and 7 circumambulations around a fire at Hindu weddings, 7 octets or Saptak Swaras in Indian Music as the basis for Ragas compositions. In Buddhism 7 is the number of ascent, and Buddha is said to have walked this number of steps at his birth.

In medieval education, students pursued a total of seven subjects (the trivium -grammar, rhetoric, logic and the quadrivium – music, arithmetic, geometry, astronomy), collectively known as the liberal arts. In modern times, 7 is the number of games in the playoffs for NHL, MLB and NBA. There is an obvious 7-year economics crash cycle for example starting from 1966, then 1973, then 1980, then 1987, then 1994, then 2001, so on and so forth. 7 not only represents the jackpot on slot machines, but it is also the basis for many myths and folklore. In 1956, George Miller of Harvard University wrote that most people can retain roughly seven items of information in their short term memory. That is why phone numbers in the U.S. and many other countries tend to have 7 digits in a phone number after the area code. 7 is a prime number. Prime numbers are those that can only be divided by themselves and by the number 1 and 7 is considered by some to be the most ‘prime’ number within the first 10 numbers as it cannot be multiplied within the group, making it a kind of optimal-prime. It is also symbolic of togetherness and, as a result, is seen as a good omen in relationships.

It is this combination of cultural, historical, religious, numerical, and psychological factors that contribute to the allure of the number 7. If we do proper research, we will find many more significance of number 7.
