Dinacharya
As the “science of life”, Ayurveda provides us with a conscious awareness of the constant movement and influences of the solar, lunar, and planetary cycles. The activities described in dinacharya are intended to be synchronized with the daily cycle of the sun and performed regularly. Ayurveda teaches that regular routines create stability, which in turn promotes personal balance.
