Dear Friend:
This is the season for sipping limeade with maple syrup, wearing light, cooling garments of cotton, silk or other natural fibers including wide-brimmed hats, and for practicing ‘shitali’ or cooling (left-nostril) breathing. White colour reflects heat while black colour absorbs, and thus increases heat.
Diseases of heat, infection and acidity can increase during summer. Diarrhea, rashes, bites, boils, bleeding, heartburn, infections, eruptions, conflicts and fevers can proliferate in hot summer; symptoms can arise and/or worsen at noon and midnight.
Keep cool by avoiding alcohol, sleeping after 10pm, direct sun exposure from noon-4pm and last-minute lunch planning. Pacify pitta dosha by early rising for sadhana, then do work activities in the early mornings and evenings. Plan to eat when hungry and drink when thirsty.
Try this cooling electrolyte recipe:
-One litre pure water
-One tablespoon lime juice
-One tablespoon maple syrup
-Two pinches of Himalayan rock salt
Mix well and enjoy to quench your thirst and replenish your cells!

Testimonial:
“My first nine-day panchakarma program with Jaisri ten years ago literally changed my life path. Still today I apply the principles of Ayurveda food science. For example, I learned to cook and mastered the many varieties of kitchari. I also continue with the abhyanga self-massage therapy. One of the biggest results remaining with me now was shifting my bedtime from 11:30pm-midnight to an earlier bedtime of 10-11pm. “

Testimonial:
“When we looked at my list of complaints upon arrival, I was a bit shocked at how long it was! Many symptoms have cleared up completely and I'm hoping some of the more entrenched ones will improve over the next three months as I continue with the diet and herbs.
This is not a complete list but since I've been here… I've lost a few pounds, I'm sleeping solidly through the night, bumps on my skin have disappeared, congestion in my chest has improved, my sinuses are clear, puffiness under my eyes is reduced…my tongue is almost completely clear, my neck and back feel quite a bit better; digestion has improved and I haven't had a headache since the one I had when I first arrived. Mentally, I did a major detox and feel like a heavy weight has lifted. Something about the cleansing process and all those great satsangs--learning about how to create the conditions for health from the point of view of Sattva, Rajas and Tamas. It's such good stuff!”
