Achoooo! You may welcome the Bambai ki baarish with long drives to Lonavala, cutting chai at the tapri, savouring cloudy views, playing your monsoon playlist and snorting in petrichor; but your body has to face the brunt of low immunity and gut issues. Fikar not, we have a holistic plan for all your monsoon problems (waterlogging and traffic jams, not included!)
There is a beautiful word in Ayurveda to describe the junction of receding summer and incoming monsoon. It is called ritusandhi—a transition time when the heat is washed down by the rains. This is when the body becomes prone to infections, and immunity is compromised. “That’s why it is important to keep immunity at optimum levels,” says Dr Manoj Kutteri, Medical Director and CEO at Atmantan Wellness Centre, Mulshi. He draws attention to the vata dosha, the Ayurvedic mind-body element associated with air and space. Air, of course, is in excess during the season.
