About Ayurveda - Dr.Dulal

The Ayurvedic lifestyle is based on three things: Routine, Moderation, and to keep tuning with the nature of the dosha and Agni.

What is health according to Ayurveda?

Health is a positive condition of happiness that is achieved through the normal condition of the doshas (energies), dhatus (tissues), Agni (digestive fire), and malas (waste), as well as a calm state of body and mind.

First, when one or more doshas become distorted or imbalanced for some reason, and if not quickly brought back into balance, the imbalance continues until the body becomes ill. And these are further aggravated by insufficient stool and weak fire. This is the cause of disease. The lifestyle practices shown by Ayurveda should always be followed by people of all natures. Follow Ayurvedic lifestyle guidelines as per your personal needs.

“Have faith in yourself; do the right thing; help others. This is the key to success, health, and happiness.” – Swami Sivananda.

What is Routine?

Every day at the same time performing healthy practices should be, established in your lifestyle. Thus, your body will adapt to prepare itself to wake up from sleep, digest food, go to sleep, and maintain the daily routine, etc.

A Daily Routine

The strength of each dosha varies throughout the day and affects our bodies for to perform different functions. So to maintain a balanced form of doshas, we have to make our daily routine according to each dosha’s strongest time.

The Ayurvedic lifestyle is based on three things:

Routine (প্রাত্যহিক ক্রিয়াকলাপের সূচি)
Moderation (আত্মসংযম), and
Tuning in to the natural rhythms of the doshas and Agni. (দোষ ও অগ্নি যাতে করে natural rhythms এর সাথে তাল মিলিয়ে চলতে পারে সে ব্যবস্থা করতে হবে।)

What kind of sleep is needed for vayu prakriti’s people?

Vayu prakriti’s people need the most sleep. They need about 8-9 hours of sleep per night. To reduce the restlessness of people of this nature, before going to sleep, they should take a bath with lukewarm water then massage oil, and then go to bed.

What kind of sleep is needed for pitta prakriti’s?

People with pitta prakriti need to sleep 7-8 hours every night. Get ready for bed one hour before going to bed. Need to do breathing exercises and meditation before 6 pm and before eating at night, to sleep.

What kind of sleep is needed for people with kapha prakriti?

Kapha prakriti’s people need 7 hours of sleep every night. If they want to start the day well, they have to wake up in the morning vayu time (before 6 am). People with a balanced kapha prakriti rarely get deep sleep.

Note: People can think for to this sleep time is a little too long but Ayurveda thinks that this is not right. Everybody needs enough sleep according to his/her prakriti.
