Do you know…….It’s Spring 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.

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

Without going into details of Kapha characteristics and imbalances, I will talk about Aromatherapy, an alternative-holistic healthcare approach, is the art and science of therapeutically using Essential oils to alleviate variety of ailments. Essential Oils are pure, natural extract of different parts of plant with individual aroma and chemical properties. Together with consuming balanced healthy diet,  Essential Oils that will be beneficial in this season to restore balance of heavy, cold and wet nature of excess Kapha dosha and to achieve abundant health, are warm, spicy, and invigorating ones (aromas). They are used to massage, or in bath, or to diffuse, or to inhale. Some of these Essential Oils include: Cardamom, Cedar, Cinnamon, Ginger, Black Pepper, Clove, Frankincense, Rose, Marjoram, Eucalyptus, Tea Tree, Clary Sage, Bergamot, and Tulsi

Good Carrier oils to make dilution:  mustard seed, almond and grape seed
