Morning Personal care
Aim to wake at Sunrise.
Aligning your wake time with the rising sun supports the circadian rhythm, stabilises hormones, and prepares the mind for clarity.
Hydration
– Supporting Rasa Dhatu
Upon rising, drink one glass of warm water, or water stored overnight in the
OmAyur Copper Water Bottle and poured into glass with a squeeze of lemon.
Copper water balances the first dhatu (Rasa), improves digestion, and gently
flushes ama, which is further enhanced with a squeeze of fresh Lemon.
Oral Care Ritual
1. Tongue Scraping
Use the OmAyur Copper Tongue Scraper to remove ama, improve oral health, and stimulate digestion.
2. Brushing the Teeth
3. Oil Pulling
Swish OmVeda Mouth oil for 5–10 minutes to soothe gums, brighten teeth, and detoxify the mouth.
Self-Abhyanga (Self Oil Massage)
Warm your chosen OmVeda Massage Oil and massage gently from scalp to toes.
This ritual grounds Vata, improves circulation, nourishes the skin, and strengthens the nervous system.
Dosha-specific oils from the OmVeda range:
- Vata: Protective (Raksha) or Nourishing (Pinda) Oil. Apply with Warm, slow, rhythmic strokes.
- Pitta: Soothe (Eladi) Calming Massage oil or Clarity (Kheerabala) are ideal. Apply with cool hands and gentle pressure
- Kapha: Revive (Kapooradhi) Oil used sparingly with move vigorous movements to stimulate lymph and reduce stagnation.
If washing your hair, apply your preferred OmVeda Hair Oil first to nourish the scalp, calm the mind, and prepare the roots.
Facial Cleansing.
A few times a week, cleanse using an OmVeda herbal exfoliant (Ubtan):
- Sesame Polish
- Fennel Exfoliant
- Exfoliating Grains
- Daily Brightening Exfoliant
Mix with warm water to create a fresh, enlivening paste. Apply to the face, neck and décolletage prior to getting in the shower.
Shower
Use lukewarm water (avoid very hot water to prevent Vata/Pitta aggravation).
Minimal soap is needed; the abhyanga oils will rinse gently leaving a protective layer of nourishment on the skin. Rinse the facial ubtan and shampoo if needed.
After drying, apply OmVeda Body Lotion
and your selected OmVeda Skincare.
