Manage episode 456266413 series 3486337
If it is winter where you live, and you feel cold, dry, spacey, are having trouble sleeping or feel that your nervous system could use some love - you may need an abhyanga.
What the heck is an abhyanga? Listen to this episode and find out! I am going to dive deep into the Ayurvedic practice of Abhyanga, which involves applying and massaging warm oil into the body.
I explain the different benefits of Abhyanga, such as soothing the musculoskeletal and nervous systems, enhancing circulation, and improving skin health as well as the roots of Abhyanga in the ancient Ayurvedic texts.
The episode also touches upon when Abhyanga might not be appropriate, including directly after meals, menstruation, and certain health conditions.
Personal anecdotes and clinical studies are shared to highlight the efficacy of this ancient practice, while practical tips for incorporating self-Abhyanga into daily routine are provided.
