Ayurveda teaches that the body reflects the rhythms of nature, undergoing subtle changes with the changing of the seasons. The monsoon (Kalkidhaka) season is when the body is particularly susceptible to Ayurvedic therapeutic effects and is the perfect time for treatments that balance the doshas – the elemental energies that govern physiological and psychological processes.
The cold, wet and windy weather of the monsoon season leaves people susceptible to illness and aggravates Vata dosha, creating imbalance within the body. Ayurveda offers grounding routines to help restore balance, and the cool rains calm the fiery Pitta that built up during the previous summer. This natural rebalancing creates the perfect environment for healing, highlighting why Ayurveda places such importance on the Kalkidaka season.
