Ayurvedic Practices for Emotional Cleansing
When our inner and outer worlds are cleansed, we feel good, optimal even. Perform your yog-asana, follow our guided practices, then perform nadi shodhana and now, you're prepared for meditation.
There is a saying, "The mind is more in the body, than the body is in the mind." The Saumya 3 step meditation process shifts us from fight-flight-freeze mode, to rest-restore-relax mode. Give it a try for forty days and observe the changes. The more grounded and relaxed we are, the smoother life flows.
"The breath is the connection between the mind and body, so by training the breath, we become calm, focused, and grounded, we slow down the aging process by decreasing stress. These practices are so simple and easy to have as part of our daily life. "
- Veena, Saumya Ayurveda
