Abstract

A healthy lifestyle promotes healthy well-being. Shodhana (purificatory measures) are one lifestyle modification done to conserve health or treat disorders, especially during the onset of seasonal variations. Ayurveda suggests ‘Swasthasya Swasthya Rakshanam Aturasya Vikara Prashamanam', which indicates preventive and curative management. This is necessary for the present environmental conditions as each seasonal variation marks a phase for the onset of various ill effects on health. So hereby, focussing on one Ritu – Sharat Ritu in which Virechana is considered a primary purificatory measure as Pitta dosha prakopa occurs in this Ritu. One has to focus on Ritu lakshanas, body constitution and dosha avastha of an individual rather than the calendar months in which seasonal variations are prebound to occur.
