Article: 'Ayurveda and Breast
Feeding' |
|
Lactation is the secretion of milk from
breasts. It is an infant's privilege and a mother's pleasure to
breast-feed. It is a natural phenomenon, which benefits both the
mother as well as child and should not be avoided. Ayurvedic
scholars have praised breast feeding and mentioned many advantages
of the mother's milk in the ancient scriptures.Brest feeding is a
best method to give the love to the child. This makes also the
mother a total. A child understands the mother through
breast-feeding. In ayurveda breast milk is called as nectar. Each
breast should be considered as the knowledge pots for the child.
Following facts about lactation support this comparison.
- Mother's milk is naturally sterile and it protects the baby
from many infections and diseases.
- It is always available at right temperature, suitable for the
child.
- Mother's milk serves as a good store of IgA ad lectoferrin,
which is not available in such a high concentration in any other
milk. It increases the immunity of the child against a variety of
bacteria and protects the infant from many diseases.
- Various digestive enzymes present in human milk make it more
suitable and easily digestible for the baby.
- Milk lactose present in the milk inhibits growth of E. coli,
and poliovirus, thus protecting the baby.
Ayurveda ascribes its Vata-Pitta-Kapha dosha qualities on the
milk and blames the mother's diet for any health problems in the
child. This is because breast-milk is Upadhatu of Rasadhatu and is
directly influenced by the quality of Rasadhatu which in turn is
made up of the food we eat.
The quality of milk produced can be assessed very easily. Let a
drop of milk fall into a container of water. If it disperses, the
milk is of good quality; if it sinks, it is heavy with Kapha (hence,
Kapha provoking items have to be removed from the diet) If the milk
floats, it is because of the airy Vata (the child will pass gaseous
stools and suffer from gripes). Dashmoolarishta in this case is the
herb of choice. If Pitta is in excess, it will tinge the milk
yellow. Shatavari is the herb given to the mother for excess Pitta.

| Article: 'Yoga for better Sleep
' by Ruchita Tripathi Upadhyay
| Sleep means total
relaxation of body and mind, no activity of mind, no movement in
mind. It is the state of unconsciousness as for as outwards moving
consciousness is concerned. Mind does not function in real sleep. If
dream is there, it is not sleep. Sleep is very important support
to health. Sleep holds a unique value for Health and can be even
considered as one of the boons which God has given to Human beings.
Natural sleep gives complete rest to the body and mind and provides
psychic energy and enthusiasm. But if we do not know how to take
natural sleep, it may not be much helpful in giving rest. To keep
anyone awake without allowing him to sleep is one of the cruelest
punishments that can be given to anybody. If sleep is taken away
from human beings, the entire world will be converted into a
madhouse. If every person follows this regime, this will
eradicate diseases from world.
