*Kojagiri Purnima: A Night of Masala Milk, Moonlight, and Ayurveda Magic 🌕🥛*
As we celebrate **Kojagiri Purnima**, marking the end of **Sharad Ritu**, let’s see how Ayurveda can help us enjoy this special night while keeping our health in check.
🌿 **Sharad Ritu** is one of the trickiest seasons! Most sudden health problems happen during this time. The rain stops, and the hot winds from the retreating monsoon hit hard 🌬️. The heat from the earth rises, warming up the air—and this heat affects our body too, especially our blood. But Ayurveda, as always, has our back.
💡 On **Kojagiri night**, the tradition is to drink **masala milk** spiced with cardamom, saffron, cinnamon, and other herbs 🌿, while sitting under the calming moonlight 🌕. This isn’t just a festive drink—it’s an Ayurvedic remedy to balance the extra heat (Pitta) in our bodies. The herbs in the milk help cool the body, aiding in better digestion and promoting relaxation.
When you drink this milk, make sure you’re in a pleasant and peaceful environment. Sip it while sitting near a lake, river, or even in your own yard, with your loved ones around. Get those cheerful kids to join, and have fun chatting about light topics. Keep it simple and joyful! 😊
✨ Drinking this **masala milk** helps reduce the excess Pitta caused by Sharad Ritu. Not only will it cool down your body, but it will also help calm your mind. Say goodbye to irritation and anger 🧘♀️.
❌ **A quick tip**: Avoid snacking on things like salted peanuts, sev, farsan, wafers, bhel, or bhajis while drinking the milk. I know, they’re tempting! But these snacks can mess up digestion and cause the milk to curdle in your stomach—not a good combo.
Let this **Kojagiri Purnima** bring balance to your health and peace to your mind, with Ayurveda and the cooling magic of **masala milk** 🌕🥛.
