Bathing Tips: Ayurveda and Naturopathy Acharya Manish explains where to pour water first when bathing. Furthermore, what happens if you pour water into the navel before bathing?

Bathing Tips: Taking a bath early in the morning during winter can be a daunting task. People often bathe with warm water or take a little longer. In fact, bathing becomes a daunting task for some people during winter, as it's extremely cold and the water is often cold, making them hesitant. However, in earlier times, our elders advised bathing with cold water and early in the morning, even in winter, because bathing early in the morning keeps the body energetic throughout the day and helps prevent illness. Ayurveda and Naturopathy Acharya Manish explained where to pour water first when bathing. Furthermore, what happens if water is poured into the navel before bathing?

What happens if water is poured into the navel before bathing?

Acharya Manish shared a video on Instagram, in which he explained the benefits of pouring water into the navel before bathing. According to Acharya, suddenly pouring cold water over the entire body can cause a temperature shock. Therefore, pouring water onto the navel helps the body gradually prepare for this change, gradually normalizing the body temperature.

In winter, bathing should be done with cold water. Those who find water cold in winter should first pour 5-7 cans of water over their navel. Doing this will allow the body temperature to adjust automatically over time, and you will no longer feel cold.

Stress and anxiety will go away

The touch of water on the navel can stimulate the vagus nerve, which plays a role in calming the body and reducing stress and anxiety. Furthermore, it keeps the body energized.

Where should you pour water first when taking a bath?

According to health experts, bathing should always begin with the feet or ankles, and never directly onto the head. Pouring cold water directly onto the head or shoulders can cause blood vessels to constrict, causing a sudden increase in blood pressure in the head and upper body. This can be harmful for people with heart conditions. Starting at the feet and gradually working your way up gives the body time to adjust to the new temperature, thus preventing unnecessary strain on the cardiovascular system.
