Why - For this, look at your tongue first thing in the morning when you get up 99% of the time, you'll see there is a white coating on tongue; this is nothing but a build up of toxins that our body has produced.  If not cleaned it goes back into your system once you start eating/drinking. No matter how good the food you have eaten. These toxins then become the main cause of all ailments one suffers from.

2     Drink a glass of warm water with fresh grated Ginger, Honey and Lemon

Why - this helps to eliminate toxins from the Gut before they get absorbed into deeper tissue.

3     Have a Bowel motion at least once a day

Why - your Bowel motion is nothing but waste from your body.  If it does not get eliminated within 12hrs it starts getting re-absorbed into your system.  It can cause auto toxication of your body.

4    Do 10 deep, long, slow, breaths from deep down in your abdomen at least twice a day

Why - with our present lifestyle all of us have a tendency to become uptight during the day, either due to the pressure of job or to being rushed to be somewhere on time.  Such activities make ones breathing shallow.  This leads to our cells and tissues becoming more sluggish and they loose their vitality.  Breathing will provide much more Oxygen to our tissues and cells that helps to vitalise them – countering your fatigue and tiredness.

5    Massage yourself with warmed cold pressed Black Sesame oil

Why - our lifestyle makes our body stiff and tight.  No matter how much exercise you do, if you look closely at yourself you will find your body is very stiff and tight; and this warm oil massage will help counter that tightness and stiffness, as well as improve your circulation and lymphatic flow, thus helping to expel the build-up of toxins in the system.

6    Use all six tastes in your meals – such as Sweet, Salty, Sour, Bitter, Pungent, Astringent

Why - each taste has its own medicinal value for our body, when you lack in one or the other taste that can become the cause of a build up.  To keep your body's intelligence in balance, we need all six tastes in our food, as they help to nourish our tissue and eliminate the toxins.

7    Avoid eating convenience foods such as including leftovers, Tin food and Microwave cooked or heated food

Why - as it hampers the nutrients of our food and according to VEDIC PHILOSPHY you are what you eat.

8     Everyday spend at least 20 minutes in the morning and at night to sit quite and calm

Why - this helps top-up and restore harmony between the mind and body thus regulating our body's intelligence.

9    Reflect your talks through your actions

Why - it is of no use to talk about being about healthy; either at a physical or mental level, if that is not reflected in our daily lives.

10    Be honest and brave

To face and resolve your emotions on a daily basis, rather than running away from them.  Talk to yourself everyday in front of mirror, before going to bed.  Learn Ayurda emotional healing process.

Why- if not resolved, they become the cause of all mental ailments.
