We live in a time where the management of vata dosha, and its accompanying qualities, require a great deal of attention.
With the fast pace at which most of us are living, the changing climate, the onset of toxic environmental exposure, the reliance on screens, easy access to immediate information, the reality of the nutritional value in our diets, and a heavy reliance on coffees, sodas and other trendy drinks, the increase in living costs, and a host of sleep disruptors, we are almost constantly exposed to dry, mobile, light and rough qualities.
Not to mention, many of us are stuck in a perpetual state of giving. Whether it’s to work, family, pets, home maintenance or other projects, it can be hard to offer ourselves the love and nourishment we so deserve and that helps to maintain and serve the nervous system.
These vata type qualities, in whatever form they enter our systems, are contributing to some of the most common symptoms in our society. Difficulty with sleep, joint pain and other forms of inflammation, dehydration, stress, anxiety, overwhelm, digestive issues like gas and bloating, hormonal imbalance, fatigue and a general sense of unease are among the most common symptoms that show up in my office and, for the most part, they can be attributed to too much dry, mobile, light and rough qualities.
Our five senses are, simply put, in a constant state of depletion.
Ayurvedic Body Work is a unique form of self care that treats the vata dosha with little to no effort. Many of my clients find it difficult to implement an entire Ayurvedic Lifestyle that will serve them immediately upon coming to visit me.
As with all good things, it takes time. I often encourage clients to bridge the gap when time or other restraints make it hard to implement all of the personal lifestyle changes that will serve them best by allowing themselves to enter a space of receiving.
Ayurvedic Body Healing sessions nourish the five senses, increase and stabalize ojas (the body’s vitality), relax and reset the nervous system, cleanse and strengthen the sensory organs, and provide deeplyrejuvenating spaciousness for healing to occur.
