According to Ayurveda the earth that accumulates all the heat in the summer, gives it up when the rains cool its surface; that’s what causes all the humidity.According to Ayurveda these heightened moisture helps soften the seven tissues of the body, making the body supple and pliable and the best state for an intensive Ayurveda detox.Cool temperature and flexible muscles also means that there is no better time to get the body attuned to a yoga regime than this.June to August is a time ripe for Ayurveda treatments.
