Summer heat = inflammation

Summer is Pitta season through the lens of Ayurveda – which means fire, heat, inflammation.

It’s important to stay cool, both inside and out, in mind and body.

Start today with learning to let go, it’s not important to try and control everything as it will only create more heat.

Cool off/Chill out:

Take a tablespoon of aloe vera gel (not juice) as a Pitta tonic (heat reducing) every day to quell your fire. Do abhyanga (self oil massage) with coconut oil once a week (or more). To really quell fanning flames, consider coating your scalp (hair included) with coconut oil, wrapping it in a towel or even plastic wrap (you will look so pretty LOL) for bed. When you wake up, wash it out with shampoo and not only will your hair feel great, but you should notice less burning in the mind and body as well.
