I’ve been waking up with the worst sinus headaches lately and having trouble even getting through the morning because of that piercing feeling. But! Whenever my body starts to talk to me I respond by listening and offering a remedy instead of silencing it by taking a pill. In Ayurveda, the nose is considered the direct route to the brain and also the doorway to consciousness. It is the entrance for prana, the life force, which is carried into the body through the breath. Healthy uncongested breathing is important to ensure proper flow of prana throughout the head and body, which has a reverberating effect on the health of the entire body-mind. When an excess of bodily fluids accumulates in the sinus, throat, nose, or head areas, it is best eliminated through the nose. Oil can help facilitate the cleansing process, particularly when using Nasya Oil, which is a nurturing and nourishing traditional herbal oil for the nasal passages. What herbs are in the nasya oil? 1. Eucalyptus 2. Brahmi (soothes nervous system) 3. Skullcap 4. Calamus If you’re having trouble focusing, need mental clarity or are dealing with sinus headaches + congestion, try this practice! . . . . #ayurvedicremedies #ayurvedaeveryday #ayurvedapostpartum #postpartumjourney #ayurvedicmedicine #ayurvedalife #nasya #nasalcongestion #holistichealth #homeremedies #momlife
