The holidays are a time for celebration and joy, b The holidays are a time for celebration and joy, but it’s easy for digestion and energy to become off-kilter with stress, over-indulgence or overwhelm. Ayurveda offers us simple ways to stay grounded AND nourished during times like these:⁠
⁠
1️⃣ Honor your agni. Choose warm, lightly spiced and wet foods that support digestion and keep your agni kindled.⁠
⁠
2️⃣ Digestion-honoring habits. Sip ginger tea, stop eating at the first burp and avoid cold drinks to help your body assimilate nutrients and digest heavy foods with more ease.⁠
⁠
3️⃣ Bring in the gratitude (like, REAL gratitude - get those thankful vibes flowing!) When we eat from a space of love, connection and genuine thankfulness, Ayurveda teaches that digestion improves naturally. In other words, we are not just what we eat, but HOW we eat. ⁠

POV: You stop waging war against the parts of you POV: You stop waging war against the parts of you that you’ve been fighting against and suddenly… everything syncs up.

The need to endlessly “fix” dissipates. 

(And you end up feeling a lot more WHOLE as a result.)

This is where true healing begins.

Nothing inside you is wrong. 

Nothing needs to be kicked out. 

Just welcomed back in. 

Send to a friend who needs a reminder that the thing they’re struggling with most within themselves…is the exact thing that needs MORE love, forgiveness and compassion. 💗
