In Ayurveda, a mindful morning routine is one of the cornerstones of cleansing and self-care. However, in Ayurveda, this does not begin with brushing your teeth, but with oil pulling and tongue scraping. This is important because at night, a variety of important detoxification processes take place in your body, causing toxins (Ama) to accumulate in your mouth. Oil pulling and tongue scraping also help you bring your body and mind into harmony and to gain new energy.
