Cleansing is the most important first step to healing

In Ayurveda, accumulated toxins known as ‘ama’ is seem as the root cause of all diseases and imbalances. Ama is like a sticky goo that clogs the channels and impedes the flow of nutrients and energy. This can lead to a range of health issues such as poor digestion, fatigue, clogged arteries, skin issues, and even chronic diseases.

When ama clogs the channels responsible for the elimination of waste products, it can lead to the buildup of toxins in the body. These toxins can further impair the body's natural ability to digest, assimilate, and eliminate waste products, leading to a vicious cycle of ama accumulation. Ama accumulation not only affects the physical body, but also the mind, emotions and spirit.

When toxins are present in the body, they can cause imbalances in the doshas, the three fundamental energies that govern physical and mental functions. Ama can clog the channels of communication between the mind and body, leading to feelings of mental and emotional stagnation, confusion, and even depression and anxiety. The buildup of toxins can also lead to a clouded mind, making it difficult to concentrate and think clearly, and negatively impact memory and cognitive function.

The buildup of toxins or "ama" in the body can also have a significant impact on physical health. The accumulation of toxins can obstruct the channels through which nutrients, hormones, and energy flow, leading to imbalances in the body's systems and functions. This can result in physical symptoms such as fatigue, headaches, skin problems, digestive issues, and weakened immunity. The presence of toxins can also contribute to the development of chronic conditions such as arthritis, heart disease, and respiratory problems.

On a spiritual level, the resulting physical and mental imbalances cloud the mind and make it difficult to connect with the higher self. The accumulated toxins create blockages in the channels of energy, known as nadis, that carry spiritual energy, preventing one from reaching their full spiritual potential.

When there is accumulated toxins in the body, there is a lot at stake! Not only because of its impact on the physical body, but also its impact on the mind, emotions and spirit. Its clear to see why Ayurveda belief that ama is the root cause of all diseases and imbalances in the body.

It is important to remove toxins from the body because if left untreated, they can accumulate and move deeper into the tissues, making them harder to treat and increasing the risk of developing chronic health conditions. Toxins can weaken the body's natural defense mechanisms and disrupt the normal functioning of the body's systems, leading to imbalances and dysfunction. Over time, these imbalances can lead to the development of chronic conditions.
