Abstract

World is suffering a huge crisis because of COVID 19 pandemic. Apart from this burden of noncommunicable diseases (NCD’s) is also too high. We get very good comprehensive measures in Ayurveda, which will protect our body from both Infective diseases & NCD’s. It is recently; Modern science has come to know about disturbance in circadian rhythms (biological clock) by means of faulty diet, untimely eating & performing tasks at wrong time’s causes many diseases. Ayurveda already knew that environmental changes in whole day have effects on our body and to synchronize with them they mentioned Dincharya. Apart from this they were also aware of ef- fects of seasonal changes on human body and to synchronize with them they have mentioned Rutucharya. Based on seasonal changes Aacharyas have classified six Rutu’s namely Shishira, Vasanta, Grishma, Varsha, Sharad and Hemant. According to their effects on body different Rutucharyas are told. At present Indian calendar seems to be slightly out of phase with seasons but with help of tropical phenomena like solstices, equinoxes with respect Uttarayan, Dakshinayan & seasonal markers mentioned in Samhitas we can mark exact seasons. Based on Ayur- vedic Siddhantas we can understand different Rutucharyas & can implicate them in our present routine. Keywords: Rutucharya, Seasonal Regimen, Lifestyle, Diet, Dakshinayan, Uttarayan.
