I love this time of year, it’s so magical. The warmth of summer still permeates the air as autumn colours start to develop on the trees radiating such beauty. With the Autumn Equinox almost upon us, now is a wonderful time for us to make a few changes in our lives and also to give thanks for all our blessings. I have a special invitation for you at the bottom of today’s blog. Enjoy! 🙂
The junction between seasons illuminate stages along our spiritual journey. The Autumn Equinox brings our awareness to balance. Day and night are of equal length representing balance between light and dark, yin and yang, feminine and masculine, spiritual and physical.
During the summer time we have lots of energy and often become overly busy with life. As we enter autumn, we are guided to slow down and prepare to enter the next phase of our lives. The dark nights of winter offer us the opportunity to go within. This is a time for meditation, contemplation and inner reflection, allowing spirit to plant new seeds and ideas into our minds preparing us to re-emerge into the light of Spring time once again.
Ayurveda teaches us to live in balance and harmony with mother nature, the seasons and our environment. As we transition into autumn, nature is slowing down preparing to rest. For us to stay in balance with nature’s rhythms and avoid illness during the transition between seasons, we must do the same. This is the perfect time for us to cleanse and detoxify the body, mind and spirit to prepare for the winter months.
An ayurvedic cleanse for autumn is very nourishing and grounding. This type of cleanse:
• Gives the digestive system chance to rest and re-adjust to the change in seasons
• Removes toxins from the body and mind
• Promotes regular and healthy elimination
• Balances all 3 doshas; vata, pitta and kapha
• Increases health and well-being
• Restores the nervous system
• Aids the body in healing itself naturally
• Calms the mind, bringing a sense of clarity and peace
• Promotes optimal health and well-being, physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually
Autumn and winter are both governed by the vata dosha, which is light, dry and cold. Vata is composed of air and space and is the energy behind all the actions of our body and mind. The other 2 doshas; pitta (fire and water) and kapha (earth and water) are unable to function without vata. To maintain balance during the colder months of vata season, it is important to adjust your lifestyle and diet to support the changes.
Guidelines for Autumn Cleanse:
• Get up early, scrape your tongue and brush your teeth
• Wash your face with cold water and give your body a good shake to get the energy moving
• Abhyanga massage using warm sesame oil to nourish your skin and aid in removing toxins
• Practice at least 20 minutes of yoga every morning. Twists and forward folds are great for cleansing the body. Finish your practice with at least 5 minutes meditation to calm your mind and give you focus for your day ahead
• Get out in nature, go for a brisk walk and appreciate the fresh crisp air in your lungs
• Follow a vata pacifying diet of warm nourishing foods such as porridge, soups, stews and kitcheri Avoid raw, cold food and drinks as this will aggravate the vata dosha
• Avoid stimulants such as caffeine and enjoy spicy herbal teas instead. Warm milky drinks are very nourishing and soothing. Try this delicious Golden Milk at bedtime, it will ensure you a restful nights’ sleep and it tastes amazing!
Golden Milk Recipe
• 1 cup of almond milk
• ½ inch grated or ½ tsp ground turmeric
• ½ inch grated ginger
• Pinch of ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, black pepper and cayenne
Heat the milk in pan until boiling, turn down the heat and add spices.
Simmer for 15 minutes then enjoy.
Your body, mind and soul will thank you for tuning into mother nature and living in harmony with the cycles of life. Try this cleanse for one week and watch your lifestyle transform right before your eyes!
Nourish your body, mind and soul…
