Tq shlloka akka for conducting such an wonderful podcast. Very informative n helpful also clarified lot of doubts regarding fasting n body mechanics. 🙏🙏
So glad more and more experts know and are talking about the real benefits of ghee...I can verify that taking just ghee ( not mixed in other foods), does not lead to weight gain , cholesterol etc
Thank you, Dr. Bhavana ji and Shlloka Akka. It was delightful and very informative. I have a question regarding Navaratri fasting. As you mentioned, fasting is done to detox the body and to cope with the transition of season. How do people in the Southern Hemisphere fast? We live in Sydney, Australia. There is a seasonal transition here too, but it's winter to spring, which is the opposite of what we have in India.
Namaste Kaushik Ji, That’s a good question. Interestingly, we had the same season transition here in March or April, which is also a Chaitra Navratri and we had done the similar program during Chaitra Navratri too. As per Ayurveda, seasonal detox can be done in each Ritu Sandhi which is seasonal transition. Panchkarma can be done by everyone, It is for the preventive health and rejuvenation. Extensive Panchkarma therapies are also prescribed as per the Dosa imbalance for the chronic disease, but for a preventive health, we should do at least a seasonal detox. Be blessed and blissful !!
Madam, with all due respect Ekadashi is anything but religious fasting. It is purely based on the effect of Moon's gravity on earth and her beings making it as "scientific" as any other fasting except intermittent of course.
