Ayurveda emphasizes the importance of daily bathing for overall health. According to Ayurvedic principles, bathing helps balance the doshas (body energies) and remove toxins from the body. Here are some Ayurvedic tips to enhance your bathing routine:
1. Adding herbal powders or essential oils like neem, turmeric, amla, or sandalwood can cleanse and detoxify the skin. Applying an herbal paste of these ingredients can be super beneficial for our skin and help us remove dirt and toxins better than chemical-laden soaps and body washes.
2. Perform a self-massage with warm sesame or coconut oil before bathing to nourish the skin and improve circulation.
3. Practice mindfulness during your bath, focusing on the sensations of the water and the act of cleansing to create a meditative experience.
