The Main Reason Why Ayurveda Doesn't Work!!!

Transcript

welcome to healthy ayurveda.com I'm Dr Mike daliwal Vedic Sage today I want to present to you a scenario that unfortunately happens too often but first I'd like to introduce you to water lily kapha water lily cuff has just recently lost about 15 pounds and all she did was adjust some lifestyle habits and just after a few weeks she's felt more balanced says she's never felt better and she actually lost weight without even trying so water lily kapha met up with some friends whom she hasn't seen in a few months after the initial niceties sassy Pitta goes on to complement water lily kapha saying how amazing she looks and then inquires into how she's done it all water lily kapha explains that she's been working with an ayurvedic practitioner and that she's been on a new routine for which she's never felt better in her life sassy Pita inquires further and water lily kapha begins to explain that she's been eating more pungent spicy foods for example adding lots of ginger and garlic to her meals she is using trick or two which are the three pungents which seems to have helped improve her digestion she is also thrilled that she's been using a hot sauna she's been doing moderate exercise and she's been spending more time in direct sunlight especially during the hottest hours of the day and finally water lily kapha has been using a really special mineral called hilajit so after gathering this information sassy put the Russia's home she does a quick Google search for shilajit and various other herbs like trika 2 and then hops onto Amazon and makes an order sassy putta's herbs arrive and immediately she begins taking them the following morning sassy Pitta gets on the scale but doesn't notice anything significant however after breakfast she begins to experience some acid indigestion and then begins to notice a horrible sour taste in her mouth she figures that maybe she isn't taking the herbs properly so she decides to double the dose and then suddenly feels increased heat within the body that night sassy Pitta has a horrible night's sleep when she wakes up she notices redness to her skin she continues to notice this increased sense of heat within and begins having cravings for ice cold drinks which she normally doesn't drink that same day sassy Pitta finds herself becoming more and more irritable and finally has a major blowout with her best friend so what happened did ayurveda fail to work for sassy Pitta does ayurveda only work for some people and not others so what actually happened was sassy Pitt death wrongly self-diagnosed herself and began a new regimen which was actually contradictory to her needs ayurveda evaluates each individual based upon the individual's current state of health determining if there's any imbalance and if so provides a personalized approach in order for the individual to achieve their unique balance required for good health for example Vata type individuals are predominantly of The Ether Air elements so these individuals tend to express dry light cold and mobile qualities and these qualities in excess can manifest into conditions of weight loss or emaciation these individuals often develop dry rough and cracked skin constipation is common and these individuals may be more vulnerable to develop feelings of anxiety worry as well as developing sleep disturbances such as insomnia therefore when imbalanced with excess font one would consider something along the lines of nutritious nourishing food which is warm and slightly unctuous which helps to counter the excess light quality of vanta which is addressing the underlining Factor creating excess weight loss and therefore by considering food which helps to stabilize weight this is addressing the root cause of that particular individual similarly rest and relaxation is the ultimate treatment choice for Vata individuals who are always moving about due to the excess mobile quality however this advice which is specific for Vata would be completely wrong for a kapha individual who is already expressing heavier qualities for example a sedentary kapha individual who struggles with excess weight may want to consider jumping onto a treadmill versus adopting rest in relaxation as being part of their personalized management plan whereas pittotype individuals are predominantly of the fire element and therefore tend to express hot and sharp qualities and if Pitta is in access these individuals would benefit from cooling measures and it's this very reason why sassy began to experience further imbalances she wrongly considered heating measures which were intended for water lily coffee and wrongly applied it to herself which further aggravated Pitta which can be extremely dangerous and can very well lead to various serious health conditions so water lily kapha being predominantly of the water and Earth elements and kapha in excess tends to express heavy and cold qualities these individuals benefit from Heating and lightening measures and this is why water lily kapha benefited from heating elements such as eating more pungent spicy foods such as garlic and ginger taking tricotu and enjoying the hot sauna and exposure to direct sunlight so these are special considerations for increasing heat or increasing the fire element within and are only beneficial if there's an excess quality of cold within however these same measures apply to someone who already has an excess element of heat within may very well lead to worsening health conditions which may cause various skin rashes such as oticaria or eczema this can also cause a whole range of picture-related conditions which could be as severe as causing bleeding conditions so the bottom line and the main point of this video is that ayurveda works it's just that we may be using ayurveda wrongly so before beginning any new ayurvedic protocol always be sure to seek consultation from an ayurvedic professional okay guys this was just a very brief video on the precautions when using ayurveda hope you've all enjoyed and until next time be well
