However, if you suffer from outdoor spring allergies, you are not able to enjoy the beauty of spring as much as the rest of us. Before I share my secret remedy for prevention, let me briefly explain why allergies occur according to Ayurveda.</p>
<p>It is actually quite simple. Allergies, whether indoor or outdoor, arise due to a weak digestion and diminished Ojas. As you know, Ojas not only represents the finest product of your digestion, but it is also your immune system. Therefore, the key to preventing allergies is keeping your digestion strong and not compromising your immune system.</p>
<p>I haven’t come up with a name for this special mixture of mine…so if any of you come up with name suggestions, please do let me know. The remedy is quite simple. The ingredients are water, lime, lemon, and orange. Take one slice of each of the lime, lemon, and orange and squeeze them into one glass of water. Everything has to be fresh…packaged juices and such will not be as effective. Water should be at least room temperature and the warmer the water is, the better it is for your digestion and for Ojas. Have at least three glasses of this water a day until your preliminary symptoms go away and then continue for at least another three days afterwards. </p>
<p>And of course, on top of that, be sure to get plenty of sleep and maintain a balanced diet and routine. Exercise and happiness, as always, are also key in prevention. </p>
<p>Enjoy the beauty of nature!</p>
<p>Health and happiness,</p>
<p>Varsha</p>
