Whenever you take a walk now, you can’t help but notice the beautiful colours and smells of wildly blossoming plants. One of them that I’d like to share about is ‚Rose hip’ ~ ‚Wild rose’ ~ ’Rosa canina’. In Ayurveda it’s valued for its astringent (🫐 + 💨) and cooling properties, something that nature gives as for balancing the hot, sharp, intense and dry qualities. It’s a powerful tri-doshic remedy that pacified all three doshas (vata, pitta, kapha) - specifically celebrated for balancing excess heat in the body. It’s got primarily astringent, sweet and slightly bitter taste (rasa) with light and dry quality (guna). It’s action (prabhava) is heart supporting and rejuvenating - nourishes deeply the tissues and boost vitality (rasayana). It helps to pacify digestive heat, ulcers and inflammatory skin conditions. Taken topically works well on skin complexion, heals wrinkles and improves elasticity. Taken internally (tea - decoction - juice) helps to clear toxins (ama), soothes respiratory track and supports digestion.

This season, I was inspired to create soothing skin tonic - a simple recipe for balancing pitta symptoms (🔥+ 💦)

Method:
Freshly picked wild rose petals cover with filtered water (ratio 1:4) and bring to simmer for about 30min.
Take off the heat and let it cool before straining the liquid into a glass dish/bottle.
Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
Apply on tired, dry skin in the morning and evening for cleansing, soothing and hydrating effect.
Enjoy the smell as you do so 🙂

What’s your favourite way of cooling pitta symptoms this summer? Let me know in the comment..

Love spring wild foraging and adding some juicy bitters to my foods, as part of balanced, wholesome diet. Ayurveda sees seasonal changes as an opportunity to find alignment with nature through letting go what no longer serves and adjusting our bodies~minds to ever changing outside conditions. Like now, we are in kapha season, known for its heavy, wet, dense and cold qualities. Knowing Ayurvedic principles: Like attracts Like and the Opposite brings Balance, we then want to introduce more foods and activities that will contribute to promoting warmth, flow, dryness and lightness. Luckily we need to look no further than what grows on our doorsteps. Abundance of wild bitter greens right now that with their drying and cleansing nature, gently support body’s natural processes of detoxification and bring more flow to our systems (drying ama). Bitter taste (tikta) promotes the flavour of other tastes (rasa) and with its dry and light quality it kindles digestive fire (agni). It increases vata (+) and decreases pitta (-) and kapha (-). It provides relief to inflammatory conditions like burning sensation, itching or other pitta related skin disorders. In minimum amounts it improves digestion and relieves intestinal gas. In moderate amount it is good for pancreas, introversion of the mind and self - awareness. We can find this flavour primarily in wild bitter greens, turmeric, aloe vera, dandelion root, cacao, tea, fenugreek, coriander, chamomile, neem oil, cleavers, nettle leaf and lettuce 🥬

Pink Full Moon 🌕 in Libra illuminating the sacred balance balance between self and other. This moon carries the frequency of renewal, reminding us that true harmony is something we create through alignment and remembering.. and that peace can only be created within us, not found on the outside..

I’ve been welcoming this spring and new beginnings in Nature cycles with Ayurvedic ancient wisdom and arrival of ‚Ayurvedic recipes’ booklets. Very happy to see this creation has come into fruition in form of beautifully crafted sustainable A5 prints from outstanding ♻️ Printed on recyclable material made of elephant poo 120 gsm and 280 gsm cover paper 🐘 as an alternative source of fibre, helping to reduce deforestation🌲

It’s a collection of 9 simple recipes made with Ayurvedic principles to balance 5 great elements within us and kindling our agni, the digestive fire that supports our physical - mental - spiritual balance. An inspiration for eating mindfully, locally and with changing seasons, so we can feel comfortable in our bodies and grow gracefully.

Available from Etsy (see link in bio) / DM in both physical booklet and downloadable pdf file.

With Love,
