Ayurveda is wonderful…
Excerpt from Maria Hennings, alternative healer and supervisor of an Ayurveda centre about the “moment of uneasiness” at a Panchakarma cleansing treatment.
Ayurveda is great, sanatory, recreational, rejuvenating, embellishing, refreshing, regenerative and so forth… Ayurveda is simply magnificent; it is the science of life itself.
“Healthy, isn’t that right, so it’s got to be good for me” one would think!
Indeed one might find confirmation in experiencing his/her first Abhyanga oil massage at an Ayurveda centre close by; Ayurveda is wonderful, what a superb and wholesome massage! You’re going back home in a state of levitation, go to bed and enjoy a deeper and more restful sleep that night.
Ayurveda is good and with all the positive feedback such as above, you might want to experience it in its authentic entirety. You then decide on going to a Panchakarma cleansing treatment in India, or possibly some other country.
Who doesn’t want to replenish and invigorate?!
You book your personal Ayurveda -Panchakarma-cleansing-treatment with your Ayurveda travel agent, full of joyful anticipation to your destination of choice (India, Sri Lanka, Germany …) where on the third day latest you feel like crap. Anyway, a lot worse than before!
“I could have stayed home for that, I don’t have to do this to me! My body is aching and I feel this bodily aggravation, if this is supposed to be rejuvenation then I don’t know.”
Luckily most people pull through with this!
The process in which the toxins in your body become discharged (AMA in Sanskrit, the language of Ayurveda) can be unpleasant. Ama is a toxic , sticky substance which likes to adhere to the weak spots within your body, your central nervous system for example. It is this process which is hurting. Ayurveda cleansing treatment releases those toxins. Still, those toxins seek to stay within the body where the body itself even got used to those toxins. In order for your body to dispose of it, Ama now gets collected, in your gastrointestinal tract for instance, likely to make you feel sick. You might experience headache, migraine, nausea, inertness and discomfort making you feel emotionally aggravated or even aggressive.
It is precisely in this moment where clients gladly would like to withdraw. At this point it is essential for you t to follow through, be persistent and make a difference in your life.
You give your therapists 3 more days and all of a sudden you realize you’re feeling better with every day. The texture of your skin is improving, digestion becomes more smooth, sleep more restful, your bodily smell more pleasant and even the coffee which you were craving so much at the beginning is no more of allure to you.
After 3 more days, for most people, the Panchakarma cleansing treatment is coming to an end. A look in the mirror is showing a pleasant, juvenile picture, more beautiful and charismatic than before.
You fly or drive back home to call and talk to your friends saying “Ayurveda is simply wonderful! From now on I will do this every or every other year!”
