Let's learn about Ayurveda from Priyanka's ideas about Ayurveda as a lifestyle.

WHAT IS YOUR IDEA OF AYURVEDA?

"According to this Shloka from Charaka Samhita, Ayurveda is nothing but a detailed description of what is good and bad for our body, what makes us happy or unhappy in life, with respect to being healthy or diseased.
In short, ‘Ayu’ means life and ‘Veda’ means knowledge/science in Sanskrit, hence is rightly the science of life which not only deals with our physical and mental being but also helps us to maintain a healthy and disease-free life."

Priyanka believes that Ayurveda is a guide to a balanced and natural lifestyle making us aware of choices we should and should not make to live a healthy lifestyle.

HOW DID YOUR JOURNEY WITH AYURVEDA BEGIN?

Priyanka's journey with Ayurveda began at a very early age when she observed the use and benefits of various herbs at her father business, with those little observations and insightful experiences she has grown up to become a Ayurvedacharya (Ayurveda Doctor) herself.

"My father is into the business of distribution and sales of Ayurveda medicines since last 30 years. Growing up, I was familiar with the names of many herbs and their uses, right from our garden to the kitchen. I was amazed to see a little powder of Haldi could be used for scratches and bruises. Such simple remedies created an interest to take up Ayurveda and become an Ayurvedacharya"

WHAT ARE YOUR TWO FAVORITE HEALTHY HABITS?

Priyanka's healthy habits involve eating right kind of meals at right time and something as simple as walking to keep herself healthy. Let's read Priyanka's favorite healthy habits in her own words.

"I always make sure that I never skip meals. I have my breakfast like a Queen, almost within an hour and a half of waking up, a moderate lunch and an early and light dinner.

I try to have at least one seasonal fruit in a day. I love making different kinds of salads, so I have them at least once a day. I make it a point of taking the stairs and ditch my bike and walk whenever possible."

WHAT IS YOUR DAILY HEALTH ROUTINE?

Priyanka has a really fun health routine which you should definitely follow as well.

"Dinacharya is daily health routine in Ayurveda. I try my best to follow a few principles of Ayurveda, and add a modern day twist to it. I start my morning with a glass of warm water, sometimes with lemon and honey or Apple Cider Vinegar or a pinch of black pepper and turmeric. This helps regulate metabolism.

As mentioned in Ayurveda, one should not overdo things. I don’t measure my water intake or calorie intake. I prefer eating in moderation, and according to my prakruti, so I go for balanced meals. I also have fresh buttermilk regularly to aid digestion instead of taking any probiotics. I change my diet and exercise according to seasons, which is Dinacharya in Rutucharya (Daily routine according to seasons) For e.g., I avoid doing a lot of exercise in summers, so I opt for walks. I recommend Panchakarma treatments seasonally for Detoxification and Rejuvenation of the body."

HOW DO YOU THINK AWARENESS REGARDING AYURVEDA CAN BE INCREASED?

"Ayurveda in today’s world is definitely getting a new identity. People are becoming more aware about the benefits staying healthy and fit through natural ways of living such as Ayurveda. The Internet is a wonderful medium through which our ancient scriptures are being circulated worldwide.

So, by blogging, sharing information and discussions, Ayurveda is here to stay! I try my best to make Ayurveda easy to understand through my blog."

WHAT IS YOUR MESSAGE FOR ALL AYURVEDA, SPIRITUAL, YOGA AND HEALTHY LIVING ENTHUSIASTS?

Priyanka believes that Ayurveda as a lifestyle has always been an innate part of us and how we have been living since ancient days through simplest of home remedies which our grandmother's have suggested and use of natural ayurvedic herbs in our day to day lifestyle. Here is Priyanka's message for all of you.

"Ayurveda has been a part of our lives since ancient times. I can happily say that today, everyone has realized that our grandma’s pouch of remedies was not just an ordinary one! We all have used, recommended and followed Ayurveda knowingly and unknowingly without understanding its greatness. So I would suggest everyone who wishes to live a healthy and disease-free life, must educate themselves about different ways of prevention of diseases, exercise regularly, and eat everything in moderation."

REDISCOVERING AYURVEDA

Rediscovering Ayurveda is Amrutam’s series of blogs which includes various men and women and their ideas about Ayurveda. Even though, India is the birthplace of Ayurveda, with passing time it has lost its original importance as a school of life among Indians and many a time have been limited to be referred as a school of medicine. Ayurveda is surely much more than that.

So, we at Amrutam decided to go out and find what Ayurveda means to people in the present day.
This is the Thirteenth article in Amrutam’s series of articles called Rediscovering Ayurveda, which aims to understand the idea or perception that modern-day men and women carry about Ayurveda.

Currently on my second bottle and happy with how this product has kept acne & breakouts in check. It doesn't leave the skin too dry and also doubles as a face mask.

Juhi Bhatt

Amrutam face clean up works great on any skin type, it has helped me keep my skin inflammation in check, helps with acne and clear the open pores. Continuous usage has helped lighten the pigmentation and scars as well. I have recommended the face clean up to many people and they have all loved it!!

Sakshi Dobhal

This really changed the game of how to maintain skin soft supple and glowing! I’m using it since few weeks and see hell lot of difference in the skin I had before and now. I don’t need any makeup or foundation to cover my skin imperfections since now they are slowly fading away after I started using this! I would say this product doesn’t need any kind of review because it’s above par than expected. It’s a blind buy honestly . I’m looking forward to buy more products and repeat this regularly henceforth.
