Most often people realise they are sick when they experience symptoms. Often they seek medication to treat the symptoms, but not the underlying condition. And this means that for a while the symptoms go away, but in time, they return. Natural healing such as that offered by Ayurveda treats the condition and not just the symptoms.
Ayurveda is an ancient Indian system of healing and well being. It is believed to have been passed down from the Gods, to the sages and then to the common man. The word Ayurveda comes from two Sanskrit words, ‘ayur’, which means life and ‘veda’, which refers to knowledge. The study of this ancient life knowledge is extensive. And you can make it an integral part of your life with the use of organic Ayurvedic herbs. Most online stores offer them in powder, tablet, capsule and as tea.
Organic Herbs for a Better Life
Ayurveda focuses on achieving a balance between the mind, body and spirit. Illness, it believes, is caused when there is disharmony among the three. In many ways Ayurveda is as much about the herbs it advocates, as it is about lifestyle.
Ayurvedic herbs are sourced from the leaves, seeds, bark, roots and fruit of different plants. Some such organic Ayurvedic herbs may be consumed when one is ill or suffering from a condition. While some herbs may improve body metabolism and facilitate good organ functioning, others may target specific organs, and related diseases. Tulsi or holy basil strengthens the immune system, and also helps alleviate respiratory ailments.
The duration for which the herbs would be taken would vary. While some herbs may be taken for a few days, others may be included in your daily health regime. If you suffer from constipation, nausea or acid reflux, you can have some Ayurvedic herbs for a few days to treat the condition. Some herbs such as Neem, which is known to purify blood and promote healthy skin, and turmeric, which has anti-inflammatory properties, may be taken on a long term basis.
Targeting Conditions and Diseases
A quick online search would reveal several Ayurvedic herbs that would help resolve an illness you or a loved one suffers from. On online Ayurveda stores retailers often categorise products by the benefits they offer. You may like to shop for herbs or you could opt to buy a product that is a combination of several herbs. For instance an Ayurvedic formula that facilitates joint support may include herbs such as Guggulu, Boswellia and several others. Do take the time to review a few online stores that offer organic Ayurveda products before you make your final choice.
