The Benefits of Nasya Oil
Nourish and moisturize your nasal passages to balance vata dryness
As the cool dry air of the late autumn starts to prepare us for the winter months, it’s important to help to balance vata (air and ether) in your body. We have all experienced that seasonal shift when we wake up one morning and suddenly have a stuffy nose. This is the experience of dryness in our sinuses. In Ayurveda, the nose is seen as the direct path to your mind, consciousness, and brain. By ensuring your nasal passages are clean, nourished, and moisturized, prana (life force) is able to freely flow through your body and mind so that health and peace are priorities. Nasya Oil is a herb infused nasal oil for your sinuses. It is used to nourish the nasal passages during travel, after neti pot use, and to support seasonal allergies and sinus discomfort.
