How Ayurveda provides the explanation for Dryness?
In the Ayurvedic viewpoint, the healthy or unhealthy aspects of the physical, mental or functional body are the bases called Tridoshas. They are named Vata, Pitta and Kapha The equilibrium of these results in health and the imbalance causes diseases. As per Ayurveda, dry lips, browned skin, cracked foot, dry scalp, etc., all have the “same root cause”. That cause is the increase of Vatha Dosha.
Creating the balance of Vatha dosha:
The basic management of imbalanced Vatha is caring with ‘Sneha’. Sneha means fats or oil or love, anything which gives nourishment as well as moisturizes. But we keep a general rule for maintaining the dynamic balance of health by guidelines in food, philosophy and habits dating back to the sages. Ayurveda is designed to re-establish balance and remove symptoms by the use of medicinal plants and foods to balance unhealthy lifestyles, seasonal changes and other doshic imbalances.
