Varsha Rutucharya - Ayurvedic Regimen for Monsoon

Monsoon Season……….. We all have mixed feelings about this one. Many of us just love rainy showers and call it romantic, while others are worried about water logging, dirt and health issues that follow. As The old saying goes, 'each to his/their own'. And this year, fear of Corona infection is one more reason for people to worry more. Ever since cyclone Nisarga has stricken western coasts of maharashtra, number of cough-cold-fever cases have increased due to sudden climate change, making people to be more concerned about their diagnosis. If We wish To keep such minor health issues at bay,we need to prepare our body to deal with them early. with the same intention, ayurvedic texts have explained the concept of Rutucharya (Ayurvedic regimen of every season). Though it has been raining for the past few days, the monsoon has not yet set in fully. This period is known as Rutusandhikala ( transition phase between two rutus). Ayurveda has advised us to change our lifestyle from grishma rutu regimen to varsha rutu regimen. This adaptation should take place gradually.

Condition and constitution of Tridoshas in this season - 

Vata dosha is already in the accumulation phase due to increased ruksha and ushna gunas of Greeshma rutu which is then further vitiated by rains causing prakopa (increased vata dominant health complaints). Also lowered temperature,increased humidity,seeping moisture can cause kapha dominant diseases like respiratory issues ( asthma, cold-cough,fever). Rainy showers tend to make water muddy and feculent. Plants are newly grown and have amla rasa (sour taste) predominance which causes natural accumulation of pitta in the body. This imbalance in vata-pitta-kapha causes digestion and metabolism to slow down causing low body strength (vigor) and low immunity. Hence loss of appetite,  indigestion, bloating , sometimes constipation or diarrhea/dysentery can also be seen. Low vigour makes one feel weak and fidgety. Also cloudy weather, muddy water and constant humid-moisture environments   can cause several epidemic outbreaks. (e.g. malaria,dengue, lepto, chikungunya and other virals-bacterial infections as well). All this highlights the importance of ayurvedic rutucharya once again. Lets see, what is the regimen that we have to follow this season,

Routine Habits -

 

1. Make sure to keep your home and office space dry and ensure there is no leakage or moisture seeping. This helps to prevent any fungal growth.

2. Use ayurvedic dhoopa to fumigate your space every evening. Dhoopana (Ayurvedic fumigation ) is proven to keep insects at the bay. (people with respiratory complaints, recurrent headaches and eye complaints should consult a nearby  vaidya to know which herbs can be used for dhoopana.)

3. Avoid getting wet in rainy showers. Always carry a raincoat/umbrella or take cover under the shed for the time being.

4. Even if you get wet for some reason, dry yourself ,especially your head thoroughly. And if possible change into dry clothes. 

5. Cover your neck and chest with a scarf or a jacket. 

6. Always use dry and clean clothes. Change your innerwear timely to avoid the possibility of fungal infections, itching-redness in the private region.

7. Use tall and closed rainy shoes to minimize contact with muddy water. Avoid walking in feculent-muddy puddles or logged water. It helps to avoid insect and rodent bites thereby reducing risk of waterborne infections. 

8. Always practice Gargling  with warm water every morning.

9. Make sure you avoid vigorous exercise but do perform mild to moderate form of work out daily. 

10. Body massage (Abhyanga) with vata pacifying oils is beneficial.

11. Avoid late night or sleeping during daytime.

Diet -

1. Scarcity of fresh and green vegetables usually lead to increased usage of pickles and condiments like bharawa mirchi, sandge, papads, chutneys. Non-vegetarians resort to dry fish and meat.

2. But such dried condiments are heavy to digest. Also it contains more salt,oils and spices which doubles up as preservatives. Hence we should use it in moderation. 

3. People usually resort to tangy-tasty condiments but it’s better rock salt (sendha namak), ginger or lemon juice.

4. Moong dal or moong dal flour can be used bengal gram ( chana dal) or besan ( chana dal flour).

5. Use aged grains instead of fresh grains. Or roast grains slightly before using.

6. Avoid using fermented food. (idli, medu vada,uttapam, dhokla,bread etc) in case of unavailability opt for nicely toasted bread slices or thin dosa.

7. Raw food is heavy to digest , saute or steam a bit.

8. Milk may cause flatulence or gastric troubles in some, it is better to add a pinch of sonth (dried ginger powder) or turmeric powder before boiling.

9. Buttermilk is a good digestive and an appetizer so one can consume it after lunch with cumin powder and salt in it.

10. Butter and ghee are big ‘NO-NO’ nowadays but both are very good vata pacifiers, do use homemade ghee and butter daily. ( but make sure that you use it directly on your roti,paratha,chillas,thalipeeth,dosas or rice,khichdi. Do not increase intake of fried food)

11. Avoid consuming stale food.

12. Don't eat forcefully if you do not feel hungry, use alternate warm and liquid diets like soups, rice water, porridge , kanji etc.

13. Always use boiled water and drink it warm.

14. We have given a detailed description of many consumables in tabular form, at the end of this article. Please read it thoroughly and feel free to ask your queries in x.comment box.

Panchakarma - 

1. Bastikrama is a treatment of choice in varsha ruru.
   Vata vitiatioon is this season causes many vata dominant diseases and symptoms like knee pain, backache, tender heels, sciatica, elevated uric acid. Basti gives a very good therapeutic treatment for all these complaints.

2. Flatulence (gases), constipation can be relieved by basti.

3. Nasya is another very effective panchakarma treatment which is  used in various vata disorders.

4. All these panchakarma procedures are needed to be carried out by qualified vaidyas only.

Secrets of Immunity -Confusions about Corona

picture courtesy : internet , alfenergy website. 

When her phone rang in the early morning, Snigdha was a bit concerned seeing Shriya’s mother’s name. She thought of their earlier project about ‘5 white poisons in the kitchen’. But Sonia was ghastly worried about something else. 

“I have so much stress these days that sometimes I feel I can't breath. I pretend to be alright, try to immerse myself in daily chores but still I keep worrying all the time. Anil has to go to the office everyday. But he is very precocious. Always takes a bath right after returning and washes his clothes immediately afterwards.We disinfect his phone,belt,shoes,car keys every time. He even Avoids direct contact with us but I still feel worried.Few of his colleagues were tested positive a few days back. Anil asnt in direct contact with them but such news makes me anxious. Is there anything that we can do? We are already following Ayurvedic immunity booster measures that you have sent us earlier. Pills have also been distributed in the society. Chyawanprash was still out of stock when I checked earlier. But I will definitely manage to procure some. I have to… My mother in law suffers from BP and diabetes.. And now the rains have started already.I have to manage Shriya and Aryan’s online class schedule….. Oh, sometimes this is all just too much for me…what do I do?”

“Sonia, first take a deep breath. Just hold your horses. Don't you know the law of attraction?? You get what you keep thinking. Our desires, though wanted/unwanted can change our lives.”

“................ I guess you are right.”

“I understand your concerns. This disease shows no distinguishing symptoms. Starts as simple fever, cough-cold symptoms, which we earlier used to brush off as just flu (bukhar ho ti hai !) But now ,if ignored, can get serious very quickly. Moreover, what scares everyone is unavailability of a definitive line of treatment or vaccine yet. But please see the other side as well.Many institutions have already started working for the vaccine. Doctors are trying to find proper protocol with definitive medicine. Government has also *allowed AYUSH medicines for corona treatment which are showing promising results*. In the current scenario, There are many patients who recover fully from Corona (SARS COVI 2) infection. Latest status of COVID - 19 cases shows that out of 308993 cases , 154330 have been recovered and 8884 patients have been deceased. This confirms that *not every corona infected person is going to die. The rate of recovery is much more than the rate of deaths*. Mortality rate of COVID-19 much less than his previous siblings SARS and MERS. Also there is another aspect in these deceased cases,which needs to be considered is ‘Comorbidity’.”

“What is comorbidity?”

“Many of the deceased patients had preexisting health conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, chronic kidney disease, respiratory (breathing) conditions, heart disease, obesity, cancers. Also senior citizens were affected more. This *indicates that the possibility of fatal complications increases if the body has already suffered long term damage because of preexisting health issues*. Such condition is known as ‘ *Comorbidity* ’ in medical science.``

“Oh ,is it? But my mother in law already suffers from hypertension and diabetes. Anil is also taking medication for cholesterol problems. Can we do anything for them? Some other immunity boosters or any ayurvedic vaccine for this?”

“Sonia, you are again going back on the same track of desperation. I do understand your frustration and helplessness. But there is no such thing as ayurvedic vaccine. And how does any vaccine work? Usually smaller portions (known as *live attenuated or toxoids* ) of a bacteria or a virus, capable of causing any contagious disease, are injected in the body. Our body responds by forming antibodies against these external antigens. These antibodies help our body to remember these infections and also fight against such infections in future. But such *vaccine generated immunity works against contagious diseases only and they are disease specific* . That means for each contagious disease, we need to take different vaccines. But Ayurveda has explained the concept of ‘ *Vyadhikshamattva* ’ which can be loosely translated as ‘Immunity’ but it is *much more comprehensive*. ‘Vyadhikshamattva’ is  _not only limited to the body's combat power against various pathogens but also the body's ability to resist every systemic disease,infectious disease,Allergic disease and even autoimmune disease_ . In short, *It's not just resistance but also the resilience of the body* . And that's why , there is *no instant formula to boost one's immunity* . There is a known saying ‘Rome was not built in a day but they were laying bricks every hour.’ It explains that _focusing on your habits is more important than worrying about outcomes._ Similarly *immunity cannot be developed or maintained by popping pills, it needs regularity and discipline in your daily routine.*

Ayurveda further explains, 

 

*‘समदोष: समाग्निश्च समधातु मल:क्रिया* ।

*प्रसन्नात्मेन्द्रियमनसश्चेति स्वस्थ इत्याभिधियते* ।।

_Samadoshah samagnishcha samadhatu malahkriyah_ |

Prasanna atma indriya manasashcheti swasthah iti abhidhiyate_ ||

Which means, an individual can be called ‘Swastha’ (Healthy) if his Tridoshas (Vata-Pitta-Kapha namely), Agni (digestion & metabolism), Sapta dhatu (rasa-rakta-mansa-meda-athi-majja-shukra) and three malas (urine-faeces-sweat) are in equilibrium, keeping his atma (soul) , eleven indriyas and manah (mind) in serene and stable state. It was described in Sushrut sanhita in 600 BC. If you understand it thoroughly, you will realise that this definition of Swastha is more in depth than the definition of health which was stated by WHO IN 1948. (Health is astate of complete physical,mental and social well being , not merely the absence of disease or immunity.- WHO)

“Is it possible for everyone to have these components in equilibrium??”

“No, because the state of these components depends on the individual's genetic predisposition , season (rutu), habitat at the time of fertilisation of embryo. That's how our Prakruti (body type) is decided. We need to maintain our vyadhikshamattwa by maintaining our lifestyle as per our prakruti. It can be achieved by following proper *Dinacharya-Ritucharya-proper panchakarma* as advised in texts. Dincharya means daily routine habits and Ritucharya means seasonal regimen as per ayurveda. It is advised because Earth’s rotation and revolution create day-night time and also different seasons which have certain effects on our body. Hence dinacharya-ritucharya helps us to maintain equilibrium of doshas-dhatus-malas.”

“But still something else must be making some difference otherwise everyone will live a long life.”

“You are absolutely right. Not every prakruti (body type) is meant for longevity. There are some genetic diseases as well. Also nowadays we see many diseases for which patients do not give any family history but are caused by mutation in genes due to faulty food habits and lifestyle. *Ayurvedic texts have explained weaker individuals,obese, people consuming improper diet, people with disturbed emotional and mental health are more susceptible to diseases.* ”

“Right even we see that mentally strong people can overcome serious diseases while some may succumb to the fear and stress.”

“Correct , hence *one needs a proper planned routine , diet with fresh and home cooked meals, daily exercise, yoga and pranayama practice, proper sound sleep and regular body detoxification with panchakarma*. But always practice these procedures with guidance of vaidyas as you may need a tailor-made (customized) plan as per your preexisting health conditions. Using one plan for everyone is not at all advisable. 

Also we must understand that Unlock 1 is already in progress and many developments are expected to follow the suit. Many epidemiologists around the world have already stated that this procedure, though unavoidable , may cause this disease to keep showing its existence in near  future causing it to come back in waves. Hence one needs to *maintain and improve ‘Vyadhikshamattwa’ by above mentioned measures. Make sure that we embed good hygiene habits like social distancing, washing hands thoroughly with soap and water, avoid unnecessary touching and avoid crowded places*. Do not brush off flu-like symptoms (Cough-Cold-Fever) as simply viral onel. _Seek for medical advice quickly and practice self isolation when sick._  

Please try to understand this disease scientifically. Don't be so desperate that you will be vulnerable to any quacks.”

“Thank you Doctor,We will definitely win this war against corona.”

टाईम टेबल आणि आपण.

चित्रसौजन्य -आंतरजाल

हॅलो,स्निग्धा मावशी, आईचा फोन येईल तुला. प्लिज मॅनेज कर.”

“आर्यन?? काय रे काय झालंय?”

“सांगतो गं  नन्तर , रादर तीच सांगेल तुला. कर ना गं  आजचा दिवस मॅनेज.”

आर्यन फोन ठेवतो न ठेवतो तेवढ्यात सोनियाचा फोन आलाच.

“अगं हा आर्यन बघ ना….रोज जागरण ठरलेलं आहेच. त्या दिवशी तू म्हणालीस त्याप्रमाणे मी ताजं ,घरी बनवलेलं जेवण,तू बनवून दिलेला आमच्या प्रकृतीनुरूप डाएट चार्ट,त्याप्रमाणे सुचवलेले  व्यायाम- योगासने- ध्यानधारणा,पुरेशी झोप,काढा आणि इतर औषधे… आम्ही सगळे पाळतो पण याचं रोजचं जागरण. मग सकाळी उठतो उशीरा. जेवणाच्या वेळी नाश्ता,संध्याकाळी चहाच्या वेळी जेवण असं काहीतरी सुरु असतं. कधी झोपतो तेच कळत  नाही.कधीतरी ठीक आहे गं, मी अडवत नाही पण आता दोन महिने झाले रोजच चालले आहे हे. तू जरा बोल ना त्याच्याशी.”

आणि , अश्या प्रकारे आर्यन महाशय क्लीनिकमध्ये उगवले. 

“मावशी,वाचवलंस हं  तू.तुझ्याशी बोलून आई एक्दम chill -pill.”

“अच्छा,म्हणजे मुंबईकडे येणारे “निसर्ग” वादळ तू मोठ्या चतुराईने रायगडकडे ढकललंस तर….”

“गुड वन,पण ती उगाच चिडते.मग वैताग येतो. मी ८ तास झोपतो म्हणजे पुरेशी झोप, तू माझ्यासाठी दिलेल्या चार्टप्रमाणे जेवतो-व्यायाम करतो.”

“केव्हा??” त्याला मध्येच तोडत स्निग्धाने विचारलं.

“केव्हा??” किंचित गोंधळून आर्यन म्हणाला, “म्हणजे जसा वेळ मिळतो तसा,पण करतो हे नक्की.” 

“मग आता मी काही सांगितलं तर म्हणशील बोअर होतं.” स्निग्धा नक्कल करत म्हणाली.

किंचित ओशाळत आर्यन म्हणाला, “नाही तू सांग, तू सायंटीफिकली सांगतेस.”

“बघ हं, गणितात २ +४ + ६ = १२ होतात पण आयुष्यात फक्त पुरेशी झोप + सकस अन्न +व्यायाम = आरोग्य अशी गणितातली बेरीज होत नाही. आयुर्वेदामध्ये एक संकल्पना आहे - स्रोतस. . . शरीरातील वेगवेगळ्या क्रिया कशाप्रकारे घडतात शरीर संरचनांचा एकमेकांशी कसा संबंध असतो. हे समजण्यासाठी ‘स्रोतस’ संकल्पना महत्त्वाची आहे. स्रोतस म्हणजे मार्ग किंवा वाहिन्या.तीन दोष, सात धातू आणि त्यांपासून बनलेले सर्व अवयव, शिरा, धमन्या, नसा  यांना आपले काम व्यवस्थित करण्यासाठी पोषक घटक आवश्यक असतात. कारण सतत होत असलेल्या चलन-वलनामुळे शरीराची झीज होते. अशा वेळी आपण घेत असलेल्या आहाराचे पचन होऊन त्या पोषक घटकांना शरीरावयवांपर्यंत नेण्याचे काम करणाऱ्या मार्गांना ‘स्रोतस’ असे म्हणतात. सूक्ष्मातिसूक्ष्म शारीर घटकसुद्धा या स्रोतसांद्वारे आपले पोषक घटक घेत असतात.”

“म्हणजे ? नळ्या लावल्या आहेत का शरीरात?”

“नळ्या,असे नाही म्हणता येणार पण शरीरावयव किंवा धातूंच्या मध्ये असणारी सूक्ष्म किंवा दृष्य पोकळी म्हणता येईल. ज्याद्वारे शरीराच्या शारीरक्रिया  (Physiological functions ) चा विचार केला जातो.ज्याद्वारे नवीन शरीरघटक निर्माण होणे, तेथील सूक्ष्मपचन,टाकाऊ पदार्थ दूर वाहून नेणे यासर्वांसाठी स्रोतसे गरजेची असतात.”

 पुढे जाऊन आचार्य असे सांगतात की  ज्याप्रमाणे सूर्योदय झाल्यावर कमळाची फुले उमलतात आणि सूर्यास्त झाला की  मावळतात त्याचप्रमाणे सूर्योदयानन्तर स्रोतसे विकसित होतात तर सूर्यास्तानंन्तर त्यांचा संकोच होतो.त्यामुळे आपण सूर्यास्तानंन्तर जितके उशिरा - उशिरा आपला दिनक्रम ठेवू तितके आपल्या स्रोतसांमध्ये बिघाड होऊन आजार निर्माण होतात. ”

“ह्याSSS  असा काहीच नसतं  हा , प्लिजच!! शरीर काय फुलं  आहेत का कोमेजायला?”

“बरं २००० हजार वर्षांपूर्वी सांगितलंय म्हणून खोटं  वाटतंय का? मग ‘सर्काडियन रिदम’ ही कल्पना ऐकली आहेस का कधी?”

“नाही , ते काय आहे?”

“आपणा सर्व सजीव शरीरामध्ये एक यंत्रणा असते, जी पृथ्वीच्या परिवलन म्हणजेच दिवस-रात्रीच्या चक्राशी, सूर्यप्रकाशाशी संबंधित असते.हे जैविक घड्याळ म्हणजेच बायोलॉजिकल क्लॉक सजीवांना दिवसभरात होणाऱ्या नैसर्गिक चढ-उतारांशी जुळवून घ्यायला शिकवते. आणि या जैवघड्याळाला आपण कृत्रिम प्रकाश, सतत काळोख यांनी फसवू  शकत नाही बरं का. १९व्या शतकापासून विविध शास्त्रंज्ञांनी यावर प्रयोग केले आणि शेवटी २०१७ साली या तीन शास्त्रज्ञांनी ते जनुक, म्हणजे जीन, वेगळे केले ज्यामुळे जैविक घड्याळ खरोखरच असते हे सिद्ध झाले.आता हे जैविक घड्याळ वनस्पती,प्राणी आणि मनुष्य सगळ्यांमध्ये कार्यकारी असते. म्हणून सामान्यांनाही कळावे म्हणून आयुर्वेदामध्ये कमळाच्या फुलाची उपमा देऊन स्पष्ट केले होते जे तुला पटले ना पण आता  २००० हजार वर्षांपूर्वी सांगितलेली संकल्पना पुन्हा सिद्ध झाली, बरोबर?”

“हो.”

“हे जैविक घड्याळ आपल्या शरीरातील विविध शरीरक्रियांमध्ये महत्त्वाची भूमिका बजावते. पण अतिशय जागरण , वेगवेगळ्या शिफ्ट ड्युटीज, मोबाईल -टीव्ही-लॅपटॉप्सचा वाढता आणि सलग तासनतास होणारा वापर यामुळे हळूहळू रात्रीच्या वेळेत होणाऱ्या झोपेचा वेळ आकसत  जातो. सलग पण थोड्या दिवसांसाठी हे होत असेल तर दमल्यासारखे वाटणे, एकाग्रता भंग पावणे , काही गोष्टी समजून घेण्यास वेळ लागणे असे त्रास होतात. पण जर सतत हा अत्याचार शरीरावर होत राहिला तर स्थूलता, रक्तशर्करेचे प्रमाण अनियंत्रित होणे , मधुमेह, पॅनिक अटॅक्स , नैराश्य आणि अतिदीर्घकाळ हे सुरु राहिले तर बऱ्याच प्रकारच्या कर्करोगाचे मूळ या जैविक घड्याळाच्या बिघाडात  दिसून येते.हे सुद्धा आता बऱ्याचशा संशोधनांनी सिद्ध झाले आहे. म्हणजे मी सांगितलेला दुसरा भागसुद्धा सिद्ध झाला, हो ना?”

“हो, पण रात्री शांतता असते गं . अरे पण ती शांतता पहाटे ४ mn वाजतासुद्धा असते. आयुर्वेदात सांगितलंच आहे, सकाळी ब्राह्ममुहूर्तावर उठा. आणि सगळे प्राणी,पक्षी सूर्योदयापूर्वीच उठतात. आणि रात्री तुम्ही जे काम करणार ते या सकाळच्या शांततेतसुद्धा होऊ शकतंय.. आणि खरं  सांग बिंज वॉचिंग असतं ना तुमचं, पाताललोक, होमकमिंग, मनी हेस्ट काय चालू आहे?”

“पाताललोक आणि नार्कोज. म्हणून रात्री बघतो नाहीतर आई ओरडेल..”

“हे बघ, सारखं- सारखं आई ओरडेल हे पालुपद लावणं बंद कर.आईला काळजी वाटते म्हणून ती बोलते. पण तुम्ही जेव्हा सारखं सांगूनही ऐकत नाही.तेव्हा ती चिडते. आणि बिंज वॉचिंगसुद्धा ऍडिक्शन निर्माण करणारे आहे. त्यावर  तुला थोडं नियंत्रण आणावेच लागेल. तू काय काय करू शकतोस.??”

“ …………………. मला थोडा वेळ दे , मी विचार करतो आपण परवा परत भेटू, तेव्हा मी काही आयडियाज घेऊन येतो, त्या बरोबर आहेत की नाही ते तू मला सांग. कारण मला सीरिज आवडतात पण हे बायोलॉजीकल क्लॉक जास्त सिरियस आहे.”

“नक्की सांगेन आणि आईशीपण तू याबद्दल नक्की बोलून बघ. ती काळजी करते पण तुला नक्की समजून घेईल."
