In our fast-paced, modern lives, more people are exploring ways to incorporate wellness into their everyday routines. Miho’s Ayurvastra range, made with 100% natural fibers and dyed using ancient Ayurvedic techniques, brings a holistic approach to clothing. Today, we’re diving into one of Miho's unique blends – the Orange Blend, a color that does much more than just catch the eye. This blend combines Ayurvedic principles with the invigorating properties of orange hues, creating a garment that supports wellness from the outside in.
The Significance of the Color Orange in Ayurveda
The color orange holds a prominent place in Ayurveda and traditional Indian practices. It is often associated with the sacral chakra (Svadhisthana), which is believed to be the center of creativity, passion, and emotional well-being.
Wearing the color orange can foster a sense of joy, enthusiasm, and warmth. It’s the color of positivity and inspiration, qualities that are essential for holistic wellness.
Miho's Orange Blend Ayurvastra range captures this essence, using natural herb based dyes to bring out a vibrant orange that is soft on the skin and free from synthetic chemicals. Let’s explore the specific herbal ingredients and wellness benefits infused in this Ayurvastra blend.
Herbal Ingredients in Miho's Orange Blend
The Orange Blend is crafted with a carefully chosen combination of Ayurvedic herbs that lend not only color but also therapeutic benefits to the fabric. Here are some of the primary ingredients:
-
Turmeric (Curcuma longa) – Known for its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, turmeric is a powerful herb in the Ayurvedic tradition. When used in fabric dye, it may support healthy skin, aiding in the management of minor irritations and improving overall skin health.
-
Saffron (Crocus sativus) – Saffron is an exotic herb that has been used for centuries to brighten and soften the skin. It adds a golden hue to the blend and is believed to have mood-enhancing properties. This makes saffron-dyed clothing particularly comforting to wear on a daily basis.
-
Annatto Seeds (Bixa orellana) – These seeds are often used for their vibrant color and are packed with antioxidants. Annatto can help soothe irritated skin and protect against environmental toxins, which makes it ideal for everyday wear.
-
Madder Root (Rubia cordifolia) – This herb adds a slight warmth to the orange hue and is used in traditional Ayurvedic treatments to help promote detoxification. Madder root is thought to promote circulation and purify the blood, contributing to a general feeling of vitality.
Wellness Benefits of the Orange Blend
The herbs used in Miho's Orange Blend aren’t chosen for their color alone. Each herb is rich in natural properties that align with the body’s needs and provide benefits through transdermal absorption. Here’s how this blend can benefit you:
-
Supports Skin Health – The natural antibacterial and antifungal properties of turmeric and saffron work together to keep the skin clean, reducing the risk of irritations and minor infections. Wearing the Orange Blend can be particularly helpful for people with sensitive skin or skin prone to conditions like eczema.
-
Aids in Detoxification – Ayurvedic herbs like madder root are known for their detoxifying properties, helping the body eliminate toxins through the skin. The result is fresher, more rejuvenated skin that breathes easily.
-
Promotes Emotional Balance – The orange color of this blend aligns with the sacral chakra, which is linked to emotions, creativity, and intimacy. This makes it perfect for people looking to enhance their emotional well-being. The color itself, along with the herbs used, creates a calming effect, making the Orange Blend an ideal choice for meditation and relaxation practices.
-
Regulates Body Temperature – Miho’s Ayurvastra fabrics, like the Orange Blend, are breathable and light, keeping the body cool in warm weather and warm in cooler weather. The herbs in the blend help maintain body temperature, allowing the body to regulate naturally and remain comfortable in a variety of climates.
