Ayurveda emerged in India over 5,000 years ago and stands out as one of the ancient healing sciences renowned for its natural remedies.  

Oil Pulling

Oil pulling is a traditional Ayurvedic practice that involves swishing oil, typically sesame or coconut oil, in the mouth for usually around 15-20 minutes. This ancient technique is believed to support oral and overall health by removing toxins, bacteria, and impurities from the mouth.

CCF Tea

It is a delightful and soothing concoction. CCF stands for Cumin, Coriander, and Fennel, the three key ingredients in this herbal tea. Their combination creates a well-rounded tea that is not only flavorful but also supportive of digestive health.

Ghee Consumption in The Morning

Having a teaspoon of ghee in the morning, preferably on an empty stomach, is believed to have various health benefits. It stimulates digestion, promotes detoxification and provides nourishment to the tissues of the body.

Tongue Scraping

According to Ayurveda, this practice is not just about oral hygiene; it's also thought to improve digestion, enhance taste perception, and prevent the reabsorption of toxins.

Triphala at Night

In Ayurveda, it is believed that Triphala helps balance the three doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha), supporting the digestive system and promoting detoxification. It's recommended for gentle cleansing and regular bowel movements.
