Ayurveda is all about creating sustainable healthy habits and acts of self-care into our daily routines. One very important act of self-care is the cleaning of the mouth. Upon waking, cleaning the mouth is one of the first things one should tend to. When we sleep, our bodies go through and clean out all the garbage like a natural janitorial system which provides a natural, beneficial detox. It is then our job to remove the cleansed toxins from the physical body. We can do this through routine oral hygiene practices
