LIVING WITH NATURE'S RHYTHMS

Dinacharya is the Sanskrit word for “daily routine,” a simple and effective way to balance the body. Our daily activities have a profound effect on our health, and a good routine is a stronger medicine than an occasional remedy. Dinacharya establishes healthy habits by attuning the body to the natural cycles of the day. The energies of each of the three doshas – vata, pitta, and kapha – predominate at different times within the 24-hour period. By establishing a routine that goes with these elemental energies, we enable the body’s natural rhythms and healing potential.

THE DAILY CYCLE

2 to 6 a.m. – vata

Waking Up: Waking up between 4 and 6 a.m. helps us develop alertness, vibrancy, enthusiasm, energy, clarity, strengthened intuition, and motivation. Vata qualities are prominent, and it is the most sattvic, peaceful time of the day, ideal for spiritual practice. If you have time constraints, when you wake up take a few deep breaths, and be thankful for waking up to an exciting new day.

Elimination: The bladder and colon may be emptied upon rising. Drinking a glass or two of warm water with a little bit of lemon can help rehydrate tissues, flush toxins, enkindle digestive fire, and stimulate peristalsis.

How Does Fear Affect Our Roles as Mothers? - Neelam Shivhare explores some of the great ancient texts of India on motherhood, compares the behavior of Kaikayi and Yashoda

Neelam Shivhare explores some of the great ancient texts of India on motherhood, compares the behavior of Kaikayi and Yashoda, and realizes the importance of removing fear from our hearts in order to nurture our children.For young women like myself, who are future mothers, I trust we are on the path of becoming selfaware and brutally honest with ourselves. We are creative beings, never forgetting the gifts with which we have been bestowed— the love and tenderness, natural instincts, and intuition to feel the right path. It all lies in the mysterious meanderings of the heart. Are we really listening to our hearts, or confusing the bombarding information on social media with reality?
