Ayurveda’s Best Practices For Healthy Digestion
| Hello! Certainly, Ayurveda offers several practices to improve digestion and strengthen your “agni” or digestive fire. Here are some effective ways: 1. Stay hydrated. Start your day with two glasses of warm water and aim for up to one to two liters. Water is best not taken with meals. Add lemon if you like. 2. Eat seasonal foods. When you opt for fresh seasonal produce you become more aligned with nature’s rhythms which will support better digestion. If you can grow some of your vegetables that is ideal. 3. Regular meals. Eat consistent meals at regular times. Avoid snacking if possible allowing the colon to be empty before the next meal. 4. Mindful eating. Avoid eating standing up or watching your phone. Rather pay attention to chewing and feeling gratitude for the food that is nourishing you. 5. Spice it up. The standard American diet lacks spices that support digestion. Use ginger, cumin, turmeric, coriander, and fennel seeds. 6. What you see you also digest. Making the plate of food you eat look colorful, setting flowers on the table, and making the area look beautiful helps your digestion. Remember, making small changes can make a big difference.with fierce love, Gedalia |
