Nurturing Little Souls: An Introduction to Ayurveda for Babies
जन॰ 04 2024 को
With the onset of interest and belief in the Indian system of ancient wellness around the world, incorporating ancient wisdom into the care of your new baby is not just an emerging trend but it can provide a holistic approach to well-being. In this blog, we'll discuss and delve into the basic principles of Ayurveda – the Indian System of Holistic Wellness and explore how it can be thoughtfully applied to your infant care.
Understanding Ayurvedic Principles:
At the core pillar of Ayurveda stands at the belief that each individual is a unique combination of the three doshas: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha: representing the fundamental energies that regulate different bodily functions, both physiological and psychological. Understanding the doshas is crucial in Ayurveda as it helps identify the difference in each human being, narrowing down its treatment practices to every individual's constitution rather than the belief of mass medicines, promoting balance and harmony with no side effects to worry about. This allows real root treatment of the problem rather than suppressed short term relief.
Lets now understand these doshas a little more:
Vata:
Vata types tend to be thin and lanky. They are very mentally and physically active and enjoy creative endeavors, meeting new people, and traveling to new places. In a state of equilibrium, individuals with balanced vatas exhibit flexibility, vibrant imagination, and original thinking. Associated with the elements of air and space, Vata governs movement and is linked to qualities such as lightness and changeability. Vata individuals frequently encounter symptoms such as cold extremities, constipation, dry skin, and joint cracking. Insomnia and reduced immunity are prevalent challenges for those with heightened vata sensitivity.
Pitta:
Pitta types are dominated by the fire element, which makes them innately strong, intense, and irritable. They tend to have a medium build and endurance with powerful musculature. Individuals of this type typically possess a moderate physique, enduring strength, and robust muscles. Their skin, often freckled, readily reddens in sunlight, during physical activity, massages, and when experiencing embarrassment. They exhibit strong determination and excel in adhering to their convictions.
Aligned with the elements of fire and water, Pitta is responsible for digestion and metabolism, characterized by qualities like heat and intensity. They boast robust digestion and a hearty appetite, craving both nourishment and challenges. Frequently, they contend with health issues like inflammation, rashes, acne, and loose stools.
Kapha:
Individuals with a Kapha constitution possess sturdy builds and inherent athleticism, provided they engage in regular exercise to control their inclination towards weight gain. Rooted in the elements of earth and water, Kapha is linked to structure and stability, embodying qualities of heaviness and solidity. They value a systematic, step-by-step approach and prefer maintaining a consistent routine in both their personal and professional lives. Introducing themselves to new environments, meeting new people, and occasionally practicing fasting prove beneficial for them.
Applying Ayurvedic Principles to Infant Care:
Individualized Care: Ayurveda constitutionally recognizes that each baby is born with a unique psychological and physiological composition, influenced by the predominant dosha. Though the correct composition can only be determined by a certified Ayurveda Practitioner - observing a baby's temperament, physical characteristics, and responses to stimuli can offer slight understanding and insights into their dosha balance.
Balanced Nutrition: Ayurvedic dietary principles emphasize the importance of food as nourishment source that align with a baby's dosha. For instance, Vata-predominant babies may benefit from warm, grounding foods, while Kapha dominants actually may need occasional fasting. Pitta-dominant infants may thrive on cooling and hydrating choices.
Gentle Massage and Touch: The practice of infant massage is deeply rooted in Ayurveda also know as Abhyanga. Read our blog in details about it at: https://www.wearmiho.com/blogs/news/ayurvedic-baby-massage-oil-for-winter Using warm, natural oils, and gentle massages not only help soothe the nervous system and promote digestion and physical strength, but it also forms an emotional bond between parent and child, helping them understand body clues better until the little human understands itself.
Creating a Calming Environment: Considering a baby's dosha, parents can create a perfect room setting for their babies’ overall health and development by adjusting factors such as lighting, room temperature, and choosing the correct sensory stimuli. Vata babies may benefit from warmth and soft textures, while Kapha babies may appreciate a well-ventilated space.
Analysing a baby's dosha constitution at home for the basics involves observing various factors like:
Physical Characteristics:
Consider the baby's build, skin type, and features. This might keep on changing due to initial rapid growth period.
Temperament:
Observe behaviours, likings, sleep patterns, and reactions to stimuli. Understanding their human behaviour can suggest the constitution widely.
Appetite and Digestion:
Note how the baby responds to different kinds of foods and feeding habits in corelation to their digestive stress.
Ayurveda provides a gentle and holistic framework for caring for the youngest members of our families. Ayurveda encompasses a vast expanse of wisdom, addressing various facets of life. It holds the potential to enrich your life in multiple ways. For personalized advice regarding your baby, consulting with an Ayurvedic expert is recommended.
Bonus:
Here are some long lost Ayurvedic advices for babies and new mothers:
The sun and moonlight have various health benefits that the baby needs during the initial months.
Traditionally the day the baby completes his fourth month, he is bathed, made to wear new clothes and brought out of the nursery. The elderly and well-wishers bless the baby and only then the baby is taken to other rooms of the house.
the baby's room was fumigated with ayurvedic resins and leaves to counter negative energies and infuse positivity in the room. Utilize Brahmi, heeng, gugulu, and jatamansi for fumigating a baby's room and clothing, effectively neutralizing airborne germs.

It prioritizes natural fibres, recycled raw material, ethical manufacturing practices, minimizes waste, biodegradability of the product, and reduces the environmental footprint.
Sustainable Fabrics: A Deeper Insight
Sustainable fabrics are those that have been sourced, produced, and manufactured in ways leading to minimal to zero negative impacts (ideal will be positive impact) on the environment and people involved in the process. Here are some of the top sustainable fabrics gaining popularity in clothing and lifestyle industry, along with their unique benefits:
1. Organic Cotton
Organic cotton is grown without the use of synthetic pesticides or hazardous chemical fertilizers, making it an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional cotton. It is commonly used everywhere today, including kids' wear, women's wear, and men's wear. Organic cotton is soft, breathable, and ideal for various clothing styles.
2. Recycled Cotton
Recycled cotton fabric is made out of cotton that otherwise would have ended up in a landfill. Also known as upcycled cotton, it’s either made from cotton products that have already been thrown out, such as clothes and bedding or from pre consumer cotton waste like pattern cutting table. In addition to reducing the amount of cotton that ends up in landfills, recycled cotton can also reduce reliance on cotton production, making it a great option provided it’s widely adopted by manufacturers and consumers.

The production process is eco-friendly and closed-loop, meaning that the solvents used to decompose the pulp to fibres are recycled. Tencel is soft, moisture-wicking, and great sustainable alternative used for activewear and undergarments.
5. Recycled Polyester
Recycled polyester is majorly made from post-consumer plastic bottles and fishing nets, diverting non-compostable plastic waste from landfills and oceans. It's commonly used in sportswear, shoes, outerwear, and accessories. This fabric helps reduce the consumption of virgin resources to meet up consumer demands.
6. Bamboo
Bamboo fabric is derived from bamboo pulp, which is a highly renewable resource as it grows really fast and require no chemical pesticides or fertilizers. It's extremely soft, breathable, and naturally antibacterial. Bamboo fabric is suitable for everyday wear and can be used in various clothing categories.
Other fibers like Ethical wool, Ahimsa or Eri Silk, Lotus, Pineapple, Banana, Milk, Rose and may more fabric alternatives, are also gaining popularity as people – both manufacturers and consumers are looking for new and creative replacements to give newness and yet preserve the cause.
India is a hub for sustainable clothing manufacturing and sourcing. With old yet rich culture and textile crafts there is a lot to explore and employ in the world of sustainable life choices. When shopping for sustainable clothing, it's essential to research brands and suppliers that align with your values. One can look for certifications such as GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) or Fair Trade and values to ensure the authenticity of sustainable claims. By choosing eco-friendly fabrics and supporting ethical manufacturers, you contribute to a more sustainable and responsible fashion industry and future, regardless of your clothing category needs.
In conclusion, sustainability in fashion is not limited to one category. And rather than a destination, it is a journey.

In today's tech-enabled, forever stimulating world, where environmental concerns are rising, and individuals are seeking holistic well-being, Ayurveda and sustainable practices are becoming increasingly popular. One such area gaining traction is Ayurvedic dyed clothes made from natural fabrics and ayurvedic medicinal dyes, offered by Ayurvedic clothing manufacturers.
These eco-friendly garments not only showcase variety of hues but also offer multitude of health and environmental benefits. In this blog, we will explore the five key advantages of choosing Ayurvedic dyed clothes, also known as Ayurvastra also elaborating hoe Sporty Summer at Miho is several steps ahead:
1. Eco-Friendly and Sustainable
Bamboo fabric, derived from the fast-growing bamboo plant, is renowned for its sustainability. Other natural fibres like wool, silk, cotton, hemp, jute etc., can also be used for Ayurvedic dyeing process. Unlike conventional fabrics, bamboo requires minimal water, pesticides, and/or fertilizers to grow and give a high yield, making it an environmentally friendly choice. Additionally, Ayurvedic clothing manufacturers take sustainability a notch further by using natural dyes derived from plants and herbs. All the components of the dye waste are compostable. This combination of bamboo fabric and herbal dyes significantly reduces the carbon footprint of our brand, contributing to a cleaner and greener planet.
2. Non-Toxic and Skin-Friendly
One of the significant advantages of Ayurvedic dyed clothes is their non-toxic and skin-friendly quality. Synthetic dyes used in traditional clothing often contain harmful chemicals that can cause skin irritations and allergies. Their disposal too leads to water and soil pollution in large extents. In contrast, Ayurvedic dyes are made from natural ingredients like turmeric, indigo, Neem, Lotus, madder root, and many more, which have therapeutic properties and are good for the skin. These clothes are particularly beneficial for individuals with sensitive skin or those prone to allergies like babies, patients, elderly, people living in humid areas, pregnant women etc.
3. Ayurvedic Healing Properties
Ayurvedic dyed clothes go beyond aesthetics and the trendy sustainability; they offer subtle healing and wellness benefits as well. The plants and herbs used in the dyeing process carry inherent medicinal properties derived from Ayurveda, which is an ancient Indian medical stream of science. For instance, turmeric has anti-inflammatory properties, indigo is believed to have a calming effect, and madder root is well-known for its antimicrobial properties. When these ayurvedic dyed fabrics come in contact with the skin, the skin absorbs the benefits through pores and help promote a sense of balance and well-being, through both medical benefits of herbs and inherited colour therapy, following the principles of Ayurveda.
4. Breathable and Comfortable
Bamboo fabric, used in Miho’s Ayurvedic clothing, is highly breathable and comfortable to wear. It allows air circulation, wicks away moisture, and keeps the body cool during hot weather. It prevents bacterial growth and is resistant to odor building. This characteristic is especially beneficial for yoga practitioners or individuals leading an active lifestyle and are required to move often. Moreover, bamboo fabric is soft and gentle on the skin, providing a luxurious and comfortable experience throughout the day.
5. Mindful Fashion Choice
Choosing Ayurvedic dyed clothes from bamboo fabric aligns with the principles of mindful fashion. By supporting Ayurvedic clothing manufacturers, you encourage sustainable practices, local crafts, Indian traditional sciences and ethical production methods. Choosing minimalistic yet buildable styles and better quality keeps your wardrobe timeless. Embracing mindful fashion means making conscious decisions that benefit not only your well-being but also the environment and the communities involved in the clothing supply chain. It fosters a deeper connection to the clothes you wear and the impact they have on the world today determining the future.

आयुर्वेद: औषधीय कपड़े का विज्ञान
मई 28 2023 को
हम सभी ने आयुर्वेद के बारे में किसी न किसी रूप में सुना है। यह लोकप्रिय प्राचीन भारतीय चिकित्सा प्रणाली है जो अब अपने प्राकृतिक उपचारों के लिए व्यापक मान्यता प्राप्त कर रही है। हर्बल उपचार से लेकर ध्यानपूर्ण प्रथाओं तक, आयुर्वेद ने हमारे जीवन के असंख्य पहलुओं को छुआ है।
हैंडलूम वीवर्स डेवलपमेंट सोसाइटी, तिरुवनंतपुरम के राजन, जो हमें यह समझा रहे हैं, कुझिविला परिवार की छठी पीढ़ी इस कपड़े का व्यापार कर रही है। उनकी वंशावली रेशम मार्ग से चली आ रही है, जब वे हल्दी से रंगे कपड़े के साथ राजाओं की आपूर्ति करते थे। वह आयुर्वेदास्त्र का अभ्यास करते हैं, जो संस्कृत के शब्द आयुर - जिसका अर्थ है जीवन, स्वास्थ्य, या दीर्घायु - और वस्त्र या वस्त्रम - जिसका अर्थ है वस्त्र, का एक सुविधाजनक और यादगार संयोजन है। कपड़ा आयुर्वेदिक गुणों की अच्छाइयों को ले जाने में मध्यस्थ के रूप में काम करता है और इसे त्वचा में स्थानांतरित करता है, इस प्रकार इसे पहनने वालों को स्वास्थ्य प्रदान करता है।
आयुर्वेद से प्रेरित यह हर्बल रंगे कपड़े अपने विशाल औषधीय और प्राकृतिक गुणों के लिए जाने जाते हैं जो मानव शरीर में संतुलन बहाल करते हैं और पहनने वालों की प्रतिरक्षा प्रणाली को मजबूत करते हैं। जड़ी-बूटियों से रंगे ये वस्त्र त्वचा रोगों को रोकने, बेहतर प्रतिरक्षा प्रदान करने और शरीर के तापमान को नियंत्रित करने के लिए जाने जाते हैं। इसलिए, आयुर्वेद को काफी हद तक एक निवारक स्वास्थ्य देखभाल और कल्याण वस्त्र के रूप में माना जा सकता है क्योंकि ऐसे सबूत हैं जो सोरायसिस, गठिया, एक्जिमा, शुष्क त्वचा जैसे त्वचा रोगों को रोकने में इस वस्त्र की प्रभावशीलता का समर्थन करते हैं।
सहायक अनुसंधान मनुष्यों में आयुर्वेदास्त्र के प्रभाव पर दो अध्ययन पूरे हो चुके हैं, दोनों ही सकारात्मक परिणाम दर्शाते हैं। केरल के सरकारी आयुर्वेद कॉलेज (जीएसी) में फार्माकोलॉजी विभाग के शोधकर्ताओं ने पाया कि जो मरीज औषधीय पौधों से रंगे बिस्तर, गलीचे और तौलिये का इस्तेमाल करते थे, उन्हें एक्जिमा, सोरायसिस और यहां तक कि गठिया के लक्षणों में राहत मिली। केरल के स्वास्थ्य मंत्रालय ने विभिन्न प्रकार की बीमारियों से पीड़ित रोगियों पर हर्बल रंगे कपड़ों, चादरों और गद्दों के प्रभावों पर अपना अध्ययन किया। उन्होंने अपनी दीवारों और छतों पर आयुर्वेदिक कपड़े की चटाई भी लटका दी। शोधकर्ताओं ने बताया कि रोगियों के गठिया और गठिया के लक्षणों में सुधार हुआ है, जिससे संभावित प्रभावों का पता चलता है जो त्वचा संबंधी प्रतिक्रियाओं से परे हैं।
गुजरात आयुर्वेद विश्वविद्यालय में आंतरिक चिकित्सा के प्रमुख, पीएचडी, एमडी, हरि एम. चंदोला ने कहा, "हर्बल काढ़े रंगाई और रासायनिक रंगाई के बीच तुलनात्मक अध्ययन के बिना [आयुर्वेद की] विश्वसनीयता और महत्व के बारे में कोई भी टिप्पणी करना बहुत मुश्किल है।" . "किसी भी निष्कर्ष पर पहुंचने से पहले बहु-केंद्रित सर्वेक्षण और परीक्षणों के साथ वैज्ञानिक मूल्यांकन की आवश्यकता है।"
डॉ. चंदोला ने कहा कि चूंकि आयुर्वेदा लिनेन प्राकृतिक हैं और सिंथेटिक ब्लीच और रंगों से मुक्त हैं, इसलिए उनका उपयोग करने वाले लोगों को गैर-प्राकृतिक पदार्थों से संभावित एलर्जी से त्वचा की प्रतिक्रिया की संभावना कम हो सकती है। साथ ही, उन्होंने कहा, प्राकृतिक कपड़े पसीने को ठीक से वाष्पित होने देते हैं, सिंथेटिक कपड़े पहनने पर यह मुश्किल हो सकता है।
पारंपरिक इतिहास डॉ. चंदोला ने दावा किया कि आयुर्वेद के प्राचीन या समकालीन क्लासिक्स में आयुर्वेद का उल्लेख नहीं किया गया है। इसके बजाय, उन्होंने कहा, कुछ संदर्भों में कुछ पौधों का उल्लेख किया गया है, जिन्हें प्रभाव नामक क्रिया के माध्यम से त्वचा पर लगाने पर चिकित्सीय परिणाम मिलता है, जिसका अर्थ है प्रभाव। कपड़ों को रंगने के लिए औषधीय पौधों के उपयोग का उल्लेख कुछ आयुर्वेदिक ग्रंथों में किया गया है, आयुर्वेदास्त्र के नाम से नहीं। इसके अतिरिक्त, वसंत लाड, बीएएमएस - न्यू मैक्सिको में आयुर्वेदिक संस्थान के अध्यक्ष और एक प्रतिष्ठित आयुर्वेदिक डॉक्टर और लेखक - ने कहा कि औषधीय पौधों में रंगे कपड़ों के उपयोग की चर्चा हिंदू धार्मिक ग्रंथ पद्म पुराण और अष्टांग हृदय में की गई है। एक पाठ जो आयुर्वेद की आठ शाखाओं को कवर करता है (मौखिक संचार, 26 सितंबर, 2011)। कपड़े के रंग का उपयोग दोषों को संतुलित करने के लिए किया जा सकता है, डॉ. लाड ने आगे कहा, और पौधों के औषधीय गुणों को उनकी ऊर्जा और गतिशील क्रिया के माध्यम से प्राप्त किया जा सकता है।
डॉ. लाड ने कहा कि प्राचीन वैदिक साहित्य में गहन आयुर्वेदिक ज्ञान बिखरा हुआ है। आयुर्वेद प्रक्रिया के दस्तावेज़ीकरण के बारे में उन्होंने कहा, "यह वहां है।" उन्होंने यह भी कहा कि भारत और संयुक्त राज्य अमेरिका में आयुर्वेदिक चिकित्सकों द्वारा आयुर्वेदास्त्र का नुस्खा असामान्य है, लेकिन वह अपने कुछ ग्राहकों के लिए इसकी सिफारिश करते हैं - विशेष रूप से त्वचा विकारों का अनुभव करने वाले लोगों के लिए हल्दी से रंगे कपड़ों के लिए।
आयुर्वेद बनाम सामान्य वस्त्र: पर्यावरण के लिए
शोध से पता चलता है कि आधुनिक पश्चिमी पहनावा टिकाऊ नहीं है और पर्यावरण पर भारी बोझ डालता है। एक जोड़ी जींस को बनाने की प्रक्रिया में 7500 लीटर पानी लगता है, जबकि हथकरघा या जैविक कपड़ों जैसे पारंपरिक भारतीय परिधानों की तुलना में इन्हें तैयार करने में काफी कम पानी लगता है।
नियमित दैनिक कपड़ों में सिंथेटिक रसायन शामिल होते हैं जो इसे पहनने वालों और पर्यावरण दोनों के लिए हानिकारक होते हैं जबकि जैविक कपड़े मानव कल्याण को बढ़ावा देते हैं और पर्यावरण के अनुकूल होते हैं। आयुर्वेदिक परिधान या आयुर्वेद भारत की एक अंतर्निहित परंपरा को शामिल करता है जो लंबे समय से चली आ रही है ताकि यह पर्यावरण को नुकसान न पहुंचाए।
जैसे-जैसे हम अधिक चेतना के साथ जीवन को अपनाना शुरू करते हैं, आयुर्वेद को शामिल करना सबसे स्वास्थ्यप्रद तरीकों में से एक हो सकता है।
आयुर्वेदास्त्र के फायदे
जड़ी-बूटी से रंगे जैविक कपड़े हीलिंग एजेंट के रूप में कार्य करते हैं, त्वचा के माध्यम से अवशोषक के रूप में कार्य करते हैं। प्रत्येक कपड़ा विशिष्ट जड़ी-बूटियों से युक्त होता है जो त्वचा की स्थिति का इलाज करने में मदद कर सकता है।
आयुर्वेद में उपयोग की जाने वाली जड़ी-बूटियाँ एंटी-माइक्रोबियल, एंटी-इंफ्लेमेटरी गुणों से युक्त एलर्जी को ठीक करने के लिए जानी जाती हैं।
आयुर्वेदा वाष्पोत्सर्जन के लिए अच्छा है जो विभिन्न बीमारियों को ठीक करने में मदद करता है। यह त्वचा संक्रमण, मधुमेह, एक्जिमा, सोरायसिस, उच्च रक्तचाप, उच्च रक्तचाप अस्थमा और अनिद्रा जैसी कई प्रकार की बीमारियों के इलाज में मदद कर सकता है।
आयुर्वेद का उपयोग ऊर्जा बढ़ाने वाले, मूड बढ़ाने वाले, रक्त शुद्धि और शीतलता बढ़ाने वाले के रूप में भी किया जा सकता है।
यह जानना दिलचस्प है कि अगर कपड़े को गाय के मूत्र से ब्लीच किया जाए तो इस कपड़े का औषधीय महत्व बढ़ जाता है।
प्राकृतिक रूप से पाए जाने वाले अद्वितीय रंगों की विस्तृत श्रृंखला को सिंथेटिक रंगों के साथ दोहराया नहीं जा सकता है, इसलिए नए शेड विकसित किए जा सकते हैं, जिनका प्रभाव निरंतर उपयोग के बाद भी नहीं खोएगा। हर्बल रंगों का उपयोग सबसे अधिक पर्यावरण-अनुकूल और टिकाऊ तरीके से सूती कपड़े के सौंदर्य मूल्य में सुधार करता है।

अधिकांश शिशु और छोटे बच्चे नहाना पसंद करते हैं क्योंकि पानी में गर्भ में पल रहे बच्चे बिना भार के चल सकते हैं और गर्म पानी में उन्हें बहुत अच्छा आराम मिलता है। नहाने की तैयारी अच्छी तरह से करनी चाहिए ताकि नहाने के बाद भी नहाने का मजा बना रहे। क्योंकि शिशु और छोटे बच्चे संवेदनशील होते हैं और नहाने के बाद तापमान में उतार-चढ़ाव पर नाराजगी के साथ प्रतिक्रिया करते हैं।
