In this episode, Nikki interviews Amayra Morales about rosacea and its connection to the gut and what we eat.
Amyra Morales. Amayra is an Ayurveda digestive health coach who focuses on helping women manage rosacea so they can glow from the inside out. Amayra hit her lowest health point in 2018 and through a series of fortunate events ended up in India and that was the beginning of the end because this is where she discovered Ayurveda and was able to get to the root cause of her health, and this is when she was told that, "rosacea is not a skin condition" whaaaaat?! According to Ayurveda skin conditions are in fact a manifestation of something deeper within.
In this episode, Nikki and Amayra talk about
- How the skin is our biggest organ and a window into what is happening inside the body.
- What brought her to Ayurveda to support her in her own struggles with rosacea
- What rosacea is - 4 types
- How it is typically treated in Western medicine
- How it is not a skin issue, but is caused by inflammation in the gut, excess heat in the body
- 3 causes of rosacea - Stress, Diet, Emotions
Diet
- If diet is the cause, start to eat a low histamine diet, and cut out gluten, and dairy, and foods that are warming to start. Also cutting out stimulants, and alcohol.
- Eat easily digestible foods, stews, soups, and cooked food over raw. Some heating foods such as cinnamon, garlic, and onions can be replaced with other foods and spices. Instead of garlic try asafoetida, an Indian spice, and instead of onion try a fennel bulb.
Emotions and stress
- Incorporate medication and mindfulness practices
- Go for walks
- Grounding practices
- Breathwork every day
It is also important to look at
- Not only what we eat, but how we eat it. Eat mindfully.
- Ayurveda looks at your dosha and the 5 elements to bring you back into balance.
Remember to start slow. It can be overwhelming but one step at a time
- Start with a morning routine, and only do one thing at a time before moving on to the next.
- Tongue scraping
- Oil pulling (make sure you spit in the garbage, not the sink!)
- Etc
- Then move on to hydration
- Then move on to a night routine
Amayra has 2 programs.
- One-month quick realignment program
- Three months - Cleanse, Nourish, Glow
She goes step by step on how to support the body with rosacea.
