Ayurvedic Home Remedies

Simple, time-tested Ayurvedic remedies you can try at home.

Ayurveda offers a wealth of simple, natural remedies using everyday kitchen ingredients. These time-tested tips support your daily well-being — though for any persistent or serious condition you should always consult an Ayurvedic doctor.

For a Common Cold & Cough

Boil a few tulsi (holy basil) leaves, a small piece of crushed ginger and a pinch of black pepper in water. Sip warm through the day to ease congestion and soothe the throat.

For Better Digestion

Chew a small piece of fresh ginger with a pinch of rock salt before meals to kindle the digestive fire (agni). A glass of warm water with cumin (jeera) after meals also helps reduce bloating.

For Restful Sleep

Drink a cup of warm milk with a pinch of nutmeg and cardamom before bed. Gently massaging the soles of the feet with warm sesame oil calms the mind.

For Glowing Skin

A paste of turmeric, sandalwood and rose water applied for a few minutes can brighten the complexion. Staying hydrated and eating seasonal fruits keeps the skin naturally radiant.

For Everyday Immunity

Start the day with a teaspoon of chyawanprash, or warm water with honey and a squeeze of lemon, to support your body’s natural defences.
