Autumn is ruled by Vata

By Rippan Sandhu

Autumn is a time when the Air element is predominant; there is more lightness, dryness and coolness.

These qualities in nature have a tendency to aggravate the Vata Dosha which regulates the levels of moisture in the skin and body, how relaxed we feel and how well we digest our food. The qualities of lightness and dryness can cause our skin to become dry and prone to wrinkles.

When the dry, cool autumn wind start to blow, it is important for you to adjust your lifestyle and skincare routine to balance the Vata predominant in nature.

Take care,
Rippan and the Ayurda team.
