MONTHS

INRODUCTION

• According to Ayurveda, the year is governed by
  the direction of the movement of the sun and is
  divided into two periods (solstice) that is
  Uttarayana (northern solstice) and Dakshinayana
  (southern solstice).
• Ayurvedic ritucharaya is based on Dosha and
  Panchmahabhuta theory.

• Summer season brings it with the host of symptoms
  such as excessive body heat, sweating,
  dehydration, skin rashes, sunburns, acne,
  diarrhoea, lethargy etc.
• Summer is hot, bright and a season of Pitta.
  Thus, it is recommended to maintain the balance
  and not allowing the Pitta dosha to become
  aggravated.

Summer season is known as Grishm Ritu in
Ayurveda. In Ayurveda, there is a detailed
description regarding different seasons and the
regimen to be followed.

PROTECT YOURSELF FROM THE SUN

• According to Ayurveda, summer is considered to be
  a Pitta dominant season and Pitta dosha is
  aggravated by solar force.
• To pacify Pitta dosha, it is necessary to protect
  yourself from the sun. Eat juicy fruits such as
  melons, pears etc.

7
TAKE COOLING BEVERAGES

• It is a well known fact that carbonated beverages
  or a packed bottled juice dont give any relief
  from the scorching heat.
• Instead fresh seasonal fruit juices should be
  consumed. Include water melon shake, fresh
  coconut water, bael sharbat, panna, buttermilk as
  they are healthy as well as refreshing drinks.

8
TAKE COOLING DIET
Ayurveda recommends cooling diet to be consumed
during summer season which includes seasonal
fruits and vegetables that are sweet, juicy,
bitter and astringent in nature.
9
TAKE COOLING DIET

• Use rose petals in summer season. Apply organic
  rose water on the face and if the eyes burn due
  to heat, then lie down for 10 minutes with
  organic rose water soaked cotton pads on closed
  eyes.
• You can also splash some organic rose water in
  the bathing water.

10
EAT AT RIGHT TIME
Lunch should not be skipped during summer season
as the digestive fire is strongest during
mid-day. Skipping lunch during summer season
means upsetting the Pitta dosha.
11
EAT LIGHT FOODS

• In summer season, our bodies naturally crave for
  light and small meals because the digestive fire
  disperses in order to keep us cool.
• It is a time to include sweet, astringent and
  bitter tastes in the diet and to enjoy cool,
  liquid and slightly oily foods.

12
EAT LIGHT FOODS

• Summer is considered as the best season for the
  intake of fresh fruits and salads.
• Fresh and sweet dairy products can also be
  included in the diet during summer season such as
  homemade yogurt, buttermilk, cottage cheese etc.

13
PRANAYAM

• SHEETALI PRANAYAM
• Stick your tongue out and curl the sides of the
  tongue upwards towards the center of the tongue.
• Now, breathe in through the mouth and hold the
  breath. Slowly exhale through the nose.
• Repeat this procedure 5-10 times.

14
PRANAYAM

• CHANDRABHEDI PRANAYAM
• Close the right nostril with the right thumb.
  Now, exhale completely through the left nostril
  and then breathe in through the left nostril.
• Close the left nostril with the little ring
  finger and exhale through the right nostril.
  Repeat this procedure 5-10 times.
• After this pranayama, lie down in Shavasan
  (Corpse pose).

15
DIET AND LIFESTYLE TO BE FOLLOWED DURING
SUMMER SEASON

• Stay in cool places.
• Excessive exercise or physical activity should be
  avoided.
• Avoid sun exposure during the day time especially
  between 11 am to 3 pm.
• Vegetables like cucumber, asparagus, green leafy
  vegetables should be consumed.
• Milk mixed with cows ghee should be consumed

16
FOODS TO BE AVOIDED
