The line most commonly heard these days is ‘2007 is drawing to a close’. 2007 is drawing to a close… there I said it too! Atlanta is getting some much needed inches of rain this morning. It is a gloomy day with no sign of the sun. The streets are empty and so is the office. Many people are on vacation, many are working from home – the silence is broken by the sound of keys being typed and the air-conditioning whirring on.
Last year this time, I was at the Texas Ashram. TTC Phase I was on. It was wet and chilly but within that huge room were 56 hearts beating with joy and wonder. This year has been… well, like any other one! Fun and frolic at Geetu’s wedding, our amazing temple trip in TN, my first ART Excel course with the little ones, my first YES! course with the teenagers, the awesome Guru Poornima celebrations at Pomona, learning to chant Guru Puja, meeting Guruji at Toronto… and finally, TTC Phase II at Montreal this August. What a splendid year this has been! Oh, this is the year I finally got a handle on my Pitta imbalance… thanks to the wonderful doctor from Sri Sri Ayurveda.
For 2008, I pray that everyone stays healthy and happy, our minds remain clear and uncluttered, our spirits rise and soar above the noise and dust…

If you don’t mind sharing, can you tell me a bit about how you managed the pitta imbalance.

Sure. I had a skin problem I battled for years. It’d break out into rashes and inspite of consulting various medical practitoners, I didn’t get a handle on it. In Feb 2007, I consulted a doctor with Sri Sri Ayurveda in Bombay. He advised to cut out certain foods from my diet for a few months. He also prescribed some medicines for a couple of months. It totally worked. What I cut back on – tomatoes, paneer, mava sweets, cheese, tamarind, lemon, basically most things sour or fermented. I consume these foods now but in moderation. Most importantly, I know now what caused those awful rashes all those years.
Can give you the name of the doctor, if you need.

Thank you. I am glad it worked for you. My hometown is no where near Bombay but do they have centers in the US or in Hyderabad? I was diagnosed with Kapha imbalance but I did not get any treatment for it.

Of course. There are many AOL centers in Hyderabad. Just call the one closest to you and ask for the contact of the Sri Sri Ayurveda doctor in the city.

I have a dear friend who lives in Hyd. Do you want her contact info? She can put you in touch with someone from Sri Sri Ayurveda in Hyderabad.

I have been trying for sometime using some choornas etc, but did not work. Any pointers/step-by-step plan will be really helpful. When you get a chance can you please email to meenthusiast@yahoo.com. I’ll really appreciate your help.
