नारली पौर्णिमा से नारियल खाओ और निरोगी रहो|(आरोग्य मंत्र – 0६) Blog- 37

पिछले आरोग्य मंत्र वीडियोज मे हमने जाना कि निरोगी रहने के लिए हमारी प्रतिकार शक्ती अच्छी होनी चाहिए | और प्रतिकार शक्ती अच्छी रहने के लिए हमे ऋतु के नुसार हमारे आहार विहार मे बदलाव करने चाहिए |

आहार विहार मे क्या बदलाव करने चाहिए ये हमे त्यौहार सिखाते है |

कैसे ?

ये हमने आरोग्य मंत्र वीडियो नंबर – ०५ मे आपको बताया है |इस विडियो की लिंक ब्लॉग के नीचे दी है।

त्यौहार के नुसार आहार विहार मे बदलाव करने से हम निरोगी रहते है | लेकिन ये बदलाव सिर्फ उस त्यौहार के दिन अपनाने नही चाहिए, बल्कि उस त्यौहार से लेकर अगले त्यौहार तक ये  बदलाव हमे अपनाने चाहिए |

तो आज का हमारा विषय है |

नारली पौर्णिमा से नारियल खाओ और निरोगी रहो”.

कैसे ?

ये जानने के लिए हमे नारली पौर्णिमा के पीछे का शास्त्र पता होना चाहिए |

नारली पौर्णिमा कब आती है ?

नारली पौर्णिमा श्रावण के पौर्णिमा को याने जब वर्षा ऋतु धीरे धीरे कम हो रही हो और शरद ऋतु याने ऑक्टोबर हीट शुरू हो रही हो तब आती है |

इस ऋतु मे हमे आहार विहार मे क्या बदलाव करने चाहिए ?

वर्षा ऋतु मे जो आहार विहार बताए गए है जैसे गरम, तीखा, तला ये सब धीरे धीरे कम करने चाहिए और शरद ऋतु मे जो आहार विहार बताए है वह शुरू करने चाहिए |

तो शरद ऋतु मे क्या आहार विहार बताए है ?

यही नारली पौर्णिमा मे बताया है |

नारली पौर्णिमा मे बताया है कि शक्कर, चावल और नारियल खाना चाहिए |

क्यु ?

आयुर्वेद नुसार शरद ऋतु मे पित्तप्रकोप काल होता है |याने इस ऋतु मे पित्त बहुत ज्यादा बढता है और हमे पित्त कि सारी बीमारियाँ जैसे माइग्रेन, एसिडिटि, सिरदर्द आदि होने लगती है |

हर त्यौहार मे जो पदार्थ खाने को कहे जाते है वह प्रतिकात्मक होते है (याने इस तरह खाओ) जैसे नारियल प्रतिकात्मक है| नारियल याने सफ़ेद, मीठे, पानीयुक्त पदार्थ हमे खाने चाहिए |

इन प्रतिकात्मक पदार्थों को जरा विस्तार से जानते है ।

  • सफ़ेद पदार्थ – सफ़ेद रंग पित्त शामक याने पित्त कम करने वाला होता है | इसलिए सफ़ेद पदार्थ जैसे दूध, दूध के पदार्थ, चावल ज्यादा खाना शुरू करना चाहिए |
  • पानीयुक्त पदार्थ –ऑक्टोबर मे गर्मी के बजह से शरीर मे पानी का अंश बहुत कम हो जाता है इसलिए धीरे धीरे पानीयुक्त चीजे जैसे नारियल पानी, शर्बत, छाछ इनका सेवन हमे करना चाहिए |
  • मीठे पदार्थ – मीठे पदार्थ वात और पित्त दोनों को कम करते है इसलिए इनका सेवन शुरू करना चाहिए जैसे शक्कर ,गुड ,मीठे पक्वान्न आदि और नैसर्गिक मीठे पदार्थ याने फल | फल मीठे, खट्टे और पानीयुक्त होते है इसलिए वात और पित्त दोनों को कम करते है |

तो आज का हमारा आरोग्य मंत्र – 0६ है –

वर्षा ऋतु का तीखा, गरम, तला खाना धीरे-धीरे कम करो और शरद ऋतु का मीठा,सफ़ेद, पानीयुक्त अन्न खाना धीरे-धीरे शुरू करो |”

नारियल मे ये सभी गुण है – सफेद, मीठा, पानीयुक्त और फल भी है |

इसलिए नारली पौर्णिमा से बताया है नारियल खाओ और निरोगी रहो |

तो इस ऋतु से हर रोज अपने खाने मे हमे नारियल का सेवन अलग अलग तरह से जरूर करना चाहिए जिससे हम निरोगी रहे ।

अगले त्यौहार तक इस आरोग्य मंत्र को follow कीजिये  और हमे follow कीजिये जानने के लिए कि कृष्ण जन्माष्टमी के पीछे का आरोग्य मंत्र क्या है ?

Narali Pournima – Start eating Coconut to remain healthy (Health Mantra -06) Blog -36

In our past videos we learnt that if our Immunity is good we remain healthy .And to keep immunity good we must change lifestyle according to season change .

What seasonal changes should be made in diet and routine are told by Festivals.

How ?

That is discussed in our last Health mantra no – 05 video . The link of that video is given at the end of this blog.

So if we follow lifestyle changes told by festivals then we remain healthy. But those changes should not be followed only during that festival. But lifestyle changes should be imbibed from that festival till next festival.

So our todays topic is “From Naarali Pournima start eating coconut and remain healthy.

How ?

Well to understand this, we must inquire into the Science behind Narali Pournima.

When does Naarali Pournima come ?

On Pournima of Shravan, when rainy season is about to end and october heat is going to start.

So what changes we should do in lifestyle ?

We should slowly stop Varsha/rainy lifestyle of hot, spicy and fried food and change to Sharad Hritu /October heat lifestyle.

So what is Sharad Hritu /October heat lifestyle?

That is told on festival Naarali pournima.

On Naarali Pournima we are advised to eat sugar, rice and coconut.

Things advised on festivals symbolically tells us what changes to do.

Like COCONUT symbolically tells us to eat White, Sweet and things with lot of water in it as these reduces Pittah as well Vaat.

Let’s understand these symbolical language in a bit detail.

  • White  Things –  White  color is coolant. So white things reduce Pittah in the body. Therefore start consuming white things like rice, milk, milk products, coconut etc.
  • Sweet things – Sweet things decrease Vaat as well Pittah in the body. So slowly increase eating sweet foods like sugar, jaggery etc and natural sweet like Fruits. Fruits are sweet, sour as well contain water so it reduces Vaat as well Pittah .
  • Things with more water content – like butter milk, fruits, Juices, sharbat, coconut water etc as October heat is going to disturb your water balance in body.

So our Health Mantra – 06 is

“ Stop eating Rainy diet ie spicy, hot, fried and slowly start eating Summer diet ie White, Watery and Sweet.”

Coconut has all above properties. It is fruit, sweet, watery and white. So it balances Vaat as well Pittah and keeps you healthy .

So from Naarali Pournima start eating coconut everyday in diet in varied forms to remain healthy.

So start following Festival Lifestyle to remain healthy and start following us to know new Health Mantra.

Our next Health Mantra will be science behind Janmashtmi.

So till next week.

Stay Healthy, Stay Blessed .      

How to do fasting? (HEALTH MANTRA – 04) BLOG – 32

In last blog we learnt the meaning of upwaas , UP means- inside and VAAS means – to go.

UPVAAS means “To go inside ourself and meditate on internal power/atma/ god .”

So the real motive of upvaas is “to achieve mental peace by meditation”.

During Upavaas along with mental peace body  peace should also be achieved.

Body peace means giving a break to your digestive system so that it does its pending work, purifies itself and gets revived.

Same ways like how we take a weekly break to do our pending work and get relaxed.

Ayurveda calls it “Langhan”. Langhan means not eating anyting the whole day.

Due to langhan our digestive system which is working continuously gets a break.

But most of us can’t do langhan so you should at least eat light food on the day of fasting .

But we make variety of upvaas receipes  and eat double .

                 Ekadashi  Dupaat khashi

i.e. instead of giving break to digestion we give it double work .

So instead of health we end up in all kinds of PITTAH diseases like acidity, pain in abdomen, headache etc.

So our Health Mantra – 04 is – “How to do upvaas?

On day of upvaas we should not eat things which increase PITTAH but you will say khichadi is advised in upwaas …….No , Not Khichadi…..Sabudaana is advised in upwaas .

Sabudana is white in colour , anything which is white is coolant ,it never increases pittah.

So,the real culprit of acidity during upavaas is groundnut and green chillies which we put in in khichadi.

They increases pittah and eating khichadi on empty stomach whole day further by evening or next next day causes all pittha diseases .

So on day of fasting we should eat light food as well food which decrease PITTAH like sabudaana kheer, milk and fruits. They nourish  our body , are light to digest and decrease PITTAHas well.

So answer to – How to do upvaas is .

  • Do meditation as much time possible
  • Eat light food
  • Eat PITTAH shamak food ie food which decreases pittah .

So science behind upvaas is “ Give break to digestion and meditate”.

So lets TAKE A BREAK

Like how we take Sunday off ….do our pending work, cleaning and relax so that we become refreshed for next week work.

Sameways ,we should give our mind and body a break so that they get purified ,revived and ready to work the next week .

So lets start fasting scientifically atleast once a week.

Till next blog….meditate and fast

Stay Healthy, Stay Blessed.

AYURVEDIC HOME REMEDY FOR SLEEPLESSNESS / INSOMNIA ( Home Remedy No.- 5) Blog – 25

You would wonder how could sleeplessness be a problem?

Well if you don’t get sleep for one two days then it’s okay….but if it extends beyond that then it’s a big problem. Imagine everybody at home is fast asleep in their beautiful dreams and you’re struggling… trying to bring sleep. You tried all the ways ….all the means…. reading books, applying lotions, meditating and no use …

Then you understand that …….Sleep is very important and

Sleep is indeed a BLESSING
as you can’t force sleep to come.


In lockdown many people are facing sleeplessness.There are many reasons to it …..few being

  1. More physical work or No work-

More physical work because no maids are, you have to do all your work by yourself.
No physical work in the sense …….you have to sit on one place….. there’s no traveling only work from home ,school from home.
2. Too much of mental tensions

Because no job /no work or too much of pressure on job because of meeting targets and fear of losing jobs.


3. Third and important is too much of SCREEN exposure

In lockdown, people are spending a lot of time on mobile laptop doing work or for entertainment
so because of too much of screen time the light and motion of videos your mind becomes too alert and too restless .

So all these reasons are causing sleeplessness.

How to fight this sleeplessness ?

  • First if no exertion then….. do at least 40 minutes exercise in the evenings.
  • If too much or over exertion….. then do head and feet massage at bedtime.
  • Third ayurveda says that if KAPHA DOSHA increases in the body then you get a good sleep.So you can drink milk …..as milk increases cough in the body….so drinking milk with a pinch of NUTMEG at bedtime induces sleep.

Special home remedies are

KHUSKHUS i.e. poppy seeds which are used in indian spices has very good sedative property so you can make KHEER or porridge of it and have it at night

Second is turmeric…….turmeric has all the names of a night i.e. its synonyms are given as synonyms of night like nisha ,rajni.….because it works wonders on diseases of night i.e. nocturnal diseases .So if you have sleeplessness then a pinch of TURMERIC in buffalo’s milk at bedtime
works wonder


Panchakarna also works wonders in sleeplessness especially SHIRODHARA
In Shirodhara, medicated oil stream is poured on forehead so it calms your mind and gives you a very good night’s sleep

So hope you get good night’s sleep and sweet dreams with all these home remedies.

Eat well ….Sleep tight
Stay Healthy Stay Blessed
