Abstract


The ancient science of life, Ayurveda, has always placed more emphasis on maintaining good health and preventing illness than it has on treating and curing illnesses. Rutucharya, this one word is made up with two words, them being as follows. Rutu+ charya , where rutu basically means seasons i.e. the 6 seasons namely- 1.Shishir     2. Vasant     3. Grishma   4. Varsha   5. Sharad   6. Hemant. These 6 seasons are basically divided in 12 months and each season has a period of 2 months. The environment in which we live has undergone significant alteration because of the season. We observe many changes in the bio-life around us. If the body is unable to adapt to pressures brought on by variations in certain seasonal features, it may develop Dosha Vaishamya, which may make the body particularly vulnerable to certain illnesses. Rutucharya it is a set of basic rules that are needed to be followed by all in today’s world with the purpose of staying healthy and disease free and lead a long and healthy life.
