Daily Swish Travel Packets—For Ayurveda On the Go!
Key Takeaways
Daily Swish Travel: single-use oil pulling packets provide a travel-friendly size for Ayurveda routines, letting you swish without spills and keep a consistent morning practice on the go.
Ayurvedic Morning: follow a simple travel routine—wake slowly, practice alternate nostril breathing, oil pulling with Daily Swish, Sun Salutations, foot massage, warm shower to promote grounding.
Travel Routine Tips: pack several pouches in your carry-on, tear one open each morning, complete the 30–45 minute routine calmly, and consider I Travel Well for travel support.
The one thing that can make an Ayurvedic lifestyle difficult while traveling is figuring out how to pack my oil. There is always the risk of it spilling all over my clothes—and as we know, that is not amenable to a one-wash, quick fix. So I end up wrapping the oil bottle in plastic wrap, putting it in a ziploc bag… and then hoping it doesn't leak. If I can only take a carry-on, well, that's a whole different problem since Daily Swish, for instance, has not been available in a travel-friendly size until now!
A solid morning routine is central to an Ayurvedic lifestyle. It is particularly important during travel, which is sure to affect the ether and air elements (vata) in the body. A stable and consistent morning routine brings regularity and grounding to an otherwise mobile, and often hectic, time of life.
Consider this simple six-step morning routine while you are traveling to mitigate the effects of travel on your body:
If possible, wake up leisurely. Sleep is one of the best remedies for high vata.
