Can understanding your body's needs revolutionize your health? You may be eating all the "good" stuff, but is it really doing you good internally?
Unlock the secrets of Ayurvedic principles & transform your relationship with food in this enlightening episode with our guest Divya Alter. We journey through the core tenets of Ayurveda, exploring how geographical location and climate profoundly influence food compatibility.
We illustrate the importance of choosing foods that align with your environment. We dive deep into the Ayurvedic concept of body type, stressing the necessity of considering the time of day, season, and stages of life when planning meals. We highlight the importance of balancing your current "dosha" (vikruti) over your birth dosha (prakriti) to ensure optimal health. According to Ayurveda, a person’s health is based on their dosha — a balance of the five elements of the world -air, earth, space, water, & fire. Tune into a discussion that underscores the role of digestive strength (Agni) in making informed food choices and how personal self-awareness is key to understanding your digestive health. By recognizing signs of improper digestion, like gas and bloating, you can better tune into what your body needs. We also explore the idea of "sathmya", emphasizing how foods familiar from childhood impact digestion and comfort.
This episode serves as an impetus for you to rely on your heightened self-awareness, and offers practical insights into personalizing your diet for better health. Discover how deeply cultural & geographical aspects shape your dietary preferences & comfort foods, making Ayurveda a uniquely tailored approach to wellness.
