1. Continue Following Your Dosha Protocol

• Consult with your doctor if you have questions or experience any imbalance.
• Visit your ayurvedic practitioner for weekly abhyanga and seasonal purification.

2. Take Your Rasayana Medicines

• Continue taking the prescribed rejuvenating (rasayana) medicines as directed by your Ayurveda doctor.
• Take them at the same time each day for best results.
