How to Shower According to Ayurveda: Most of us prefer to take a bath in the shower. But do you know that this method of bathing can harm your health?
Acharya Balkrishna, the head of Patanjali Yogpeeth, has shared a video on his YouTube channel regarding the matter. In this video, he has explained the right way to bathe according to the loss of bathing from the shower and Ayurveda. Let’s know about it in detail-
What are the disadvantages of bathing from shower?
Answering this question, Acharya Balakrishna says, Ayurveda and Indian tradition have been told a right way to bathe. If we bathe wrongly, it can have a bad effect on our body. Nowadays people take a bath and take a bath instead of sitting, while it is not right to do so.
He said, in many research, it has been mentioned that bathing in the shower can increase the risk of heart attack or asthma. Actually, when you put cold water directly on the head, the fine ducts of the brain shrink. This affects blood circulation and in such a situation there is a risk of heart attack. Therefore, instead of bathing in the shower, it is better to take bath in a perfect manner.
According to Ayurveda, what is the right way to bathe?
Acharya Balakrishna says, first wash hands and feet while bathing. Gently pour the water on the body and finally put on the head. Never pour hot or cold water on the head as it can cause damage to the head and brain.
Sitting and bathing
Apart from this, Acharya Balakrishna says that if possible, take a bath and take a bath, but if you are taking a bath, then first wash hands and feet, then put water on the body.
Take care of this too
Acharya Balakrishna advises to avoid bathing immediately after eating. Always eat food after bathing apart from this. They say that according to Ayurveda, bathing before meals is necessary. Taking a bath cleanses the body, strengthens the digestive power (gastric) and the food is digested properly. These small things, such as bathing properly and taking bath, are very important for our body and health.
