Abstract

Ayurveda has a focus on the importance of Dinacharya (daily regime), Ratricharya (night regime) and Ritucharya (seasonal routine). These three are important in the prevention of disease and promotion of ideal health. According to Ayurveda, to maintain a healthy and disease free life everyone should follow a daily routine mentioned in Ayurveda texts. Vyayama (physical exercise) is an important regimen explained in the context of Dinacharya. Vyayama plays key role in the maintenance of health and prevention of disease. Ayurveda suggests that a daily routine of proper physical activity, affects not only your body, but has a positive influence on your mind, emotions, senses and spirit. The benefits of Vyayama are achieved as you focus on your chosen activity in awareness of your breathing, physical responses, and sense of well-being. When you exercise according to Ayurvedic tradition, your energy and vitality are enhanced by the appropriate demands placed on your body and you are left with a feeling of joy.
