My morning nasya routine has been particularly helpful during these smokey times. If you haven’t tried this Ayurvedic practice before, this could be a good time to start. Nasya is an herbal-infused oil that helps to clear and lubricate the sinuses (and energetic channels). I apply 5-6 drops to each nostril upon rising each morning. Lie back and let it sink in for a moment, sniffing a little bit on each side. Then you can go about your other morning routines. If you get up too fast some might drip out a little so be prepared or keep a tissue handy. Follow with pranayama and have a clearer day!
