In Kerala the season of festivities never
comes to a close. When humans take a respite from their celebrations, by the
month of June the baton is taken over by a different mood of Nature. She starts
her boisterous monologue called Monsoon lasting for two months. But the
breather taken by the people here is not without any reason. For what follows
the Monsoon is the Malayalam month of ‘Karkidakam’ (roughly July-August), which
has been deemed as the best time to indulge in Rejuvenation Therapies by the
oldest healthcare system in the world - Ayurveda, that has its roots in this
soil. It is written in the scriptures of Ayurveda that the month of ‘Karkidakam’,
for the lack of dust and humidity in the atmosphere, is ideal for all
rejuvenation practices especially Panchakarma – a therapeutic way extolled by
Ayurveda, for eliminating toxic elements from the body. The hectic and
stressful modern life that we lead often triggers the accumulation of toxins,
causing ailments to the body. This is where Panchakarma comes to our rescue. By
flushing out the toxins from our body it restores vitality. Ayurveda recommends
for a healthy Vegetarian Diet devoid of any impurities. ‘Karkkidaka Kanji’, a
special Ayurvedic gruel made with rice and herbs is ideal for this season. So
come to Kerala this Monsoon and enjoy the euphoria of nature. Let the magic
wands of Ayurveda do wonders on you.
