Garavisha-Tea

-
According to Shaka Vansya Ayurved toxins fall into 4 categories. Ama or undigested food that is clogging and leaves that white sticky substance on the back of your tongue. It also clogs other tissues. After Ama is in the body for a long time it becomes Amavisha. Then there is Garavisha or chemical toxins that are rapidly on the increase in modern society. An last but not least there are the electromagnetic toxins that interfer with pranic flow.

When teaching about nourishing the body, hydration is at the forefront. One gift of SVA and Vaidya Mishra is his "Garavisha-Tea" for daily detox.  The following is off the label of the tea.

Everyday we are exposed to environmental and other factors (mental, emotional, dietary, etc) that may create a build-up of toxic waste in our physiology. When left unattended, such toxic waste can interfere with the functioning of the physiology resulting in imbalances and eventually chronic ill-health. Just as we intake nourish
ing on a daily basis, we need to detox on a daily basis. Here is a new SVA formulation by Vaidya Mishra to help to achieve that. Coriander will help to bind and eliminate mercury, lead and arsenic; Guduchi will support the channels of the physiology so that they can transport the toxins out; Basil will support the physiologies immunity and ward off a detox crisis. Marshmallow root will lubricate the channels and bind the toxins so that they are evacuated safely; Neem will activate the detox process as well as support the immune system; Peppermint will maintain the channels open so as to facilitate evacuation; Slippery Elm will supply a deeper lubrication for the channels and supporth the growth of friendly bacteria; Indian sarsaparilla will eliminate the fat soluble toxins by supporting the intelligent functioning of the fat metabolism; Rose will help cool the physiology during detox process of highly virulent hot toxic waste (garavisha)

I would recommend starting with 1/2 to 1 teaspoonful in 1 liter of boiled spring water in a thermos and sip through out the day. You can add a bit of extra marshmallow root, coriander and mint if you wish.

Gentle safe and based on sound knowledge of the ancient texts of Ayurved. Also formulated by a Vaidya that comes from a long lineage of healers.

Blessings and safe detox.

Make a paste of Turmeric and Aloe gel..it worked for inflamed gums for us.

 Gingivitis... we found a simple solution. My partner was suffering from an inflamed gum for weeks and went to the dentist who seemed not concerned and said "If it gets worse let me know." Then the inflammation of the gum got so bad that his cheek started to swell on one side and he looked like a chipmunk on that side.  We try to avoid antibiotics because we know that they play havoc with your micro-biome and it takes a long time to reestablish a good bacterial flora in the gut. We went to Grandpa Google and looked at what had helped others with this problem.  From the many suggestions what jumped out at me was TURMERIC and ALOE VERA.... Wow! both are very high in my esteem.  And I also knew that Turmeric even though it is a wonderful medicine, it can be drying and heating.  And immediately my intuitions said "Aloe is cooling and moistening, Let's combine them!"   That is exactly what we did. We put 2 teaspoonfuls of Turmeric in a small dish and made a...

Detox Soup

Harsh detox protocols can be very dangerous and many modern day toxins are "hot" or can burn the delicate fine channels of elimination in the kidney and other tissues.  Shaka Vansiya Ayurved teaches that there are 4 categories of toxins. Ama or undigested food that is sticky and cold and we need hot spices to eliminate this type of toxin. So ginger and pepper and fenugreek and other heating spices would work well. However once that toxin has been sitting around for a long time it becomes hot.  We might call it a "free radical" in modern scientific terms. Shaka Vansiya Ayurved (now referred to as SVA) calls this Amavisha.  This type of toxin needs a different approach to detox. Before moving the toxins out of the body we need to bind them with mucilaginous food like barley, okra, tapioca, arrowroot, taro root and others.  I find zucchini and other summers squashes are most readily available, even though they are not extremely mucilaginous.  Then you can start mov...

  To drink Milk or Not to drink milk? ......That is the question. Milk is considered a nectar in Ayurveda.   It is the loving fluid coming form the mother’s blood carrying immunity and nourishment to the offspring   - whether cow, goat or human or whatever.   When we drink milk within 24-48 hours it nourishes all our deepest tissues. All other food that takes 30 days to reach the deepest levels of our physiology. In other words, to make Ojas or all the neurotransmitter and hormones that are essential for intelligent communication and transformation of all tissues, takes 30 days.   Yes, you heard me. What you eat today is not fully assimilated for about 1 month, whereas milk is assimilated within 2 days.   That is why it is considered a nectar. However there are certain rules around drinking milk.   Firstly the source must be of good quality.   The cows have to be well treated. The individuals caring for the animal but treat it with kindness and re...
