Ayurvedic lifestyle, Sunday, Thursday

[Guest guest]

I have a question...today is Sunday where I live in Palm Desert,

California; and, I read in YOGA CHICAGO magazine that Sunday and

Thursday's should be dry days. Dry brushing our bodies (no oil

massage), and steaming our foods. Can someone on the group talk about

this.

 

Blissfully yours,

Patti

Dear Patti,

There were no Sundays and Thursdays when Ayurveda was initially taught 5000

years ago and even in today's Ayurvedic books no mention as to any specific day

occurs during the mention of Dina-charya (daily chores) or Rutu-charya (Seasonal

adaptations) with reference to the current weekdays.
