    Good afternoon ? from Lakshmi Ayurveda!

    How did you go with your morning routine today?

    One of the most important foundations of Ayurveda is dinacharya, our daily routine. Following a routine can be challenging some days when we may feel anxious or lacking motivation. This is why we encourage simplicity and enjoyment in our routine. Your Ayurvedic practitioner will provide you with a unique routine specialised for you. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, simplify completing just one morning task - tongue cleaning.

    Why tongue ? cleaning? Throughout the night digestive toxins accumulate in the mouth. Before we consume food or drinks it is best to practice oral health procedures, such as tongue cleaning. Tongue cleaning not only scrapes the toxic buildup on your tongue, but it also stimulates the digestive system and encourages the maintenance of good gut bacteria.

    Tongue ? cleaning is simple and easy to implement into your routine. You’ll start to notice through time that the landscape of your tongue is changing each day, each hour really! Become curious about these changes, ask your practitioner what the changes mean and notice how your tongue looks in correlation to how you’re feeling.

    On this second day of lockdown here in Perth, we are spending time in our garden enjoying the beauty of nature. If you find yourself feeling anxious please do reach out to us, we would love to hear from you ??
