Ayurveda Luxia

We are currently in the season of wind, air element or the beautiful word for wind in sanskrit: vayu.

Wind governs motion, movement, change and is the main energy present in the current season. It will be present until the later part of the winter months which then will bring forth another energy inherent in the planet we live on.

The energy of air is light, cold, rough and unstable, it is also subtle, flexible, spontaneous and creative, which we can sense during the months of autumn and early winter. During these months these qualities will be enhanced in us, this is because our environment and surroundings (such as nature) are impacting us all the time. When these qualities comes to a height however it can cause an imbalance in our entire system resulting in various physical and mental symptoms.

The ayurvedic view of how we can bring balance during the different seasons of the year or the different seasons of our life is to invite into our lives more of the opposite qualities, rather than those that are currently most present.

To bring balance means; if the qualities that is mostly present at the moment are harsh, cold, unstable, light, dry and the primary function being motion. It would be wise to invite qualities into our lives that is soft, still, warm, stable and grounding, in order to feel balanced. It can be in the form of routines that enhances these qualities and food which is nourishing, grounding, moist and warm.

But overall we need to consider these qualities when we tend to ourselves. The stability we strive to create should not come from a place of performance but from a place of love. We can build our foundation, routines and how we care for ourselves and others from a place of softness, kindness and love. Then we will create balance for the movement that comes from the wind. The wind of change moves, flows and creates, these are the positive attributes of the air element. Creativity which comes from achievement or performance can easily "dry out" or deplete our system and ourselves. But the creative force that is rooted in love will instead nourish our entire being 🧘‍♀️💖

🇬🇧 Vata, Pitta and Kapha are the three doshas that along with the elements form the core of what ayurveda teaches about. The doshas originates from the 5 elements: earth, water, fire, air and space and each dosha is made up of two elements. The doshas are energies and also the pillars of the body. In an imbalanced state they cause physical and mental symptoms.

To bring balance to our body and mind we balance the doshas, since they govern the functions of the body and mind. Therefore ayurveda is a holistic healing system since it views man from a whole perspective and not merely by physical symptoms.
It is by understanding the energy behind the symptom and by managing the cause that gives rise to the symptom that we can bring healing and balance within ourselves.

🇸🇪 Vata, Pitta och Kapha är de tre doshorna som tillsammans med elementen utgör kärnan i den ayurvediska läran. Doshorna kommer från de 5 elementen: jord, vatten, eld, luft och rymd och varje dosha är en sammansättning av två element. Doshorna är energier och de fungerar som kroppens stöttepelare. I ett obalanserat tillstånd orsakar de fysiska och mentala symtom.

För att skapa balans i kroppen och sinnet balanserar vi doshorna ​​eftersom de styr kroppens och sinnets funktioner. Ayurveda har ett holistiskt synsätt och ser människan ur ett helthets perspektiv och inte bara utifrån fysiska symptom.
Det är genom att förstå energin bakom symtomen och genom att hantera orsaken som ger upphov till symtomen som vi kan läka och hitta balans inom oss själva.

Spices and the digestive fire 🔥

Did you know that the purpose of spices is to aid and support our digestion? Spices are both used as a means to help digest the food and to clear and brake down toxins in the gut. The digestion process in our body is connected to the transformative action of the fire element and is a central factor for our wellbeing. So by caring for our inner flame we can strengthen our entire being.

A central part in the ayurvedic teaching is to strive for a balanced digestive fire. When it is weak it will either work too quickly or too slowly. Either burning the nutrients in our body so that the body isn't able to assimilate nutrients from the food. Or if too low it will not be able to brake down the food properly which can lead to toxic formations.

Spices aid the digestion in such a way that it strengthens the digestion and helps break down toxins. Depending on your individual type of digestion different types of spices may be more beneficial.

Some general spices for digestion are:
Cumin (jeera)
Turmeric
Ginger
Black pepper
Fenugreek
Coriander

As an old ayurvedic saying states - food can be used as medicine when we understand what type of food is needed for the individual body. Spices which are potent acts as a way to help heal and support our body 🧘‍♀️

Marma treatment 🩵 in Suonenjoki

A soothing and relaxing treatment to help you calm down and turn more inward so that you may find relaxation in your own body.

During the treatment different points are massaged on the head, face, neck and hands. These points are called marma points in ayurveda and are similar to acupoints used in traditional chinese medicine.

Marma points act as mediators and activate and maintain the functions of the body's physical and subtle channels like the digestive channel and the channel where oxygen travels through. We may not always be aware of these channels but their part is crucial in maintaining wellbeing. The marma points are also connected to subtler channels which carry our thoughts and feelings.

Treating the body via these points stimulates the flow of life energy in the body's various channels. When blockages are created by poor choices in lifestyle or by our emotional and mental state this life energy does not flow freely and instead makes us tense, tired and sometimes sick.

💆‍♀️💆‍♂️Sesame oil is used during the treatment.

Offer during November and December:
1 treatment 45€ (normal price 50€)
3 treatments €120 (normal price €150)

For appointment and further questions you can send a direct message or contact:

Ayurvedic lifestyle consultation.

During a lifestyle consultation we go through various questions to create an understanding about your life situation and in what kind of "condition" your body currently is in.

Often times we suffer from symptoms that have become a habital state for us to be in, where we stop noticing or questioning why our body behaves in a certain way. Stress, digestion issues, sleep problems or other physical symptoms are all signs of an underlying issue that has its root-cause in the way we live or how we are feeling inside of ourselves.

Through a consultation you can get a better understanding of yourself and what your individual body is in need of to find balance in your personal everyday life.

The ayurvedic teaching is based on the knowledge of the five elements and their fundamental part on this planet including in our own bodies. When we understand the elements and how they influence our day to day life we can utilize this knowledge to create balance within ourselves.

- The consultation is individually suited for you and your everyday life.

- You get an understanding of what you need to find balance and advice accordingly.

- Your own wishes of what kind of change you aspire for is of course also taken into consideration.

I also take a look at your tongue and check your pulse since they can tell what's happening inside the body, if there may for example be any occuring imbalances and what may be causing them.
