Chandrika Ayurvedic Soap 75g

• Sandalwood, Nature's Favourite Aroma : The sweet-scented extracts of sandalwood have traditionally been used for their aromatic propoerties. Sandalwood helps cool the body, tone the skin, and enliven dehydrated skin owing to its soothing and moisturising properties. Its antibacterial and anti-tanning nature helps keep your skin clear and prevents scars and marks. Sandalwood also helps tighten the skin, making it more youthful and glowing..
•  
• Coconut Oil, the Swiss-Army Knife of Skincare​ : While it has been used in Ayurveda for centuries, coconut oil has only recently been rediscovered for its skincare capabilities. It replenishes the skin's natural oils, and soothes the skin, reducing outbreaks and irritation. Coconut oil is also known to be rich in antioxidants and Vitamin E that ward off free radicals, which means that it helps slow the aging process—making your skin soft, supple, and radiant.
•  
• Patchouli Oil, Your Skin's Best Friend :The earthy fragrance of patchouli oil also brings along antifungal, antiseptic, and anti-inflammatory properties. It is a naturally effective way to promote the growth of new skin cells, which helps speed up the healing of scars and reduces unevenness in skin tone. It is also known to help control acne and body odour. With patchouli oil, very little goes a long way in giving you healthy and happy skin.

 

 

Ayurveda

Ayurveda is a word from Sanskrit - the ancient language of India - that translates as knowledge or science of life. Ayurveda originated some 5,000 years ago in the oral teachings of ancient rishis (pronounced ree-shees), or spiritual masters, who believed that all living things were based on underlying energies. They developed Ayurveda as a method for balancing these energies and thus promoting optimal health and longevity. Ayurvedic theory influenced Greek and Chinese medicine and evolved into a sophisticated system for preventing and treating disease.

The term "Ayurveda" literally means "the science of life". This ancient system of medicine, developed in India over a period of 5000 years, encompasses both Preventive & Prescriptive aspects. Ayurveda offers a great deal of excellent practical advice for the common man on every aspect of life and living. What is unique to Ayurveda is Ayurvedic practitioners teach patients to understand their unique bodily constitutions and show them how to use diet, massage, herbs, and lifestyle adjustments to harmonize body, mind, and spirit. Compared to other systems of medicine, this natural approach to health care caught appreciation of the world as safe and scientific.

Today, an estimated 300,000 ayurvedic physicians practice in India, often in close conjunction with doctors trained in Western, conventional medicine or in homeopathy. In recent years a more science-savvy take on Ayurveda has spread to distant parts of the world including the United States, where it has begun to flourish alongside other holistic, patient-oriented, natural, non-invasive medical systems such as traditional Chinese medicine.
