The Indian monsoon brings relief, beauty—and a wave of seasonal health challenges. From digestive issues to weakened immunity, this is the time when your body needs extra attention. At Adusuns Medicare, we believe the key lies in Ayurveda—specifically in understanding the role of rainwater and season-specific Ayurvedic herbs.
Here’s your no-nonsense guide to staying healthy and balanced during the rainy season—naturally, effectively, and the Ayurvedic way.
Why the Rainy Season Affects Your Body (According to Ayurveda)
In Ayurveda, the rainy season—or Varsha Ritu—is linked to an imbalance in the Vata and Pitta doshas. The damp, cool environment weakens digestive fire (Agni), slows metabolism, and opens the door to infections, skin issues, and joint pain.
Key Ayurvedic concerns during monsoon:
Low immunity Sluggish digestion Water-borne diseases Joint stiffness and inflammation Fungal skin infections
Is Rainwater Safe? Ayurvedic Take
Traditionally, rainwater was considered pure and medicinal—especially the first rains after a long dry season. But today’s environmental pollution has changed the game.
Modern Ayurveda Recommendation:
Avoid direct consumption of rainwater unless filtered and boiled. Rainwater can be used for external therapies like Abhyanga (oil massage) and Udvartana (herbal exfoliation) when clean.
Pro Tip: Use filtered or distilled water in your Ayurvedic decoctions during monsoon to avoid contamination.

Ayurvedic Lifestyle Tips for the Rainy Season
Along with herbs, your dinacharya (daily routine) needs monsoon-specific tweaks:
✅ Eat Light, Warm & Spicy
Focus on khichdi, soups, moong dal, and steamed veggies. Avoid curd, raw salads, and cold drinks—they disrupt digestion.
✅ Daily Abhyanga (Oil Massage)
Use Mahanarayan oil or Dhanwantharam oil to ease joint pain and boost circulation.
✅ Keep Skin Dry
Use antifungal herbal powders and wear breathable cotton fabrics. Wash feet and folds regularly—apply neem or turmeric-based dusting powder.
✅ Yoga & Pranayama
Gentle yoga + breathing exercises like Nadi Shodhana and Bhramari help maintain energy and immunity.
