The morning sun is considered 'Thanga Veyil' (Golden Sun). It is culturally believed to have healing properties for the skin and soul. Ayurvedic practitioners prescribe 'Veyil Kaayuka' as a natural way to improve digestion and bone health. In villages, 'Veyil Kaayuka' is a social time where elders gather in the 'Chayakkada' (tea shop) or porches to discuss politics. Newborns are traditionally given a 'Veyil-kollal' (sun exposure) session after an oil massage to prevent jaundice and strengthen bones.
