TANMATRAS-KEY TO HOLISTIC HEALING THROUGH DOORS OF PERCEPTIONS

Abstract

We are all part of an infinite field of intelligence that orchestrates all of the activities in the universe and our sense organs are truly our only means of contact with the outside world. "Nothing is in the understanding, which was not first perceived by some of the senses." attributed to English philosopher, John Locke (1632-1704). Our senses provide the keys to unifying two systems, in particular, to bridge our outer and our inner worlds. The study of the interaction between these worlds (Healing through the Senses) interfaces with psychological processes and the nervous and immune systems of the human body. Balance your senses through both inner and outer experiences of nourishing sounds, sensations, images, tastes, and smells, and your inner pharmacy which provide natural health promoting chemicals to improve immunity, relieve anxiety and depression, normalize digestive function, and keep you pain free. Treating ourselves through the 5 senses is one of the most important ways to heal our body, mind and spirit. Ayurveda places great importance on improving the acumen and strength of the five senses. What if your taste was stronger, your eyes keener, your ears more sensitive? You would have a higher perception of reality. This healing modality gently stimulates all five of our sensory organs, harmonizing us. This results in an experience of peace and calm, dissolving any stress.
