Woohoo! An Ayurvedic posting on coffee! Yesssss. Who knew such a happy thing existed?! When advising my clients, I don&#8217;t usually make them rid their coffee. Why? Because depending on the person&#8217;s dosha, coffee might not be that terrible of a thing for them.
Authentic Ayurveda says that we should not have coffee, not because of [...]]]></description>

I got a great question about how much Ayurveda uses aromatherapy. Thanks for the question!!

So, our nose is responsible for conducting one of the 5 senses, smell. In Ayurveda, we use the 5 senses as the sole vehicles for healing. Specifically, the nostrils consist of two channels (ida and pingala) which send messages directly to [...]]]></description>

Basically salt&#8217;s job is to compel us to take in more nutrients by making food tasty. But we have to be careful because that can easily result in overeating and weight gain.
