                                                  When your Pitta friend goes from enlightened godde When your Pitta friend goes from enlightened goddess to fire-breathing dragon in 0.2 seconds because lunch was ten minutes late. 🔥 (Or, maybe you ARE that friend…) 😉

Don’t worry babe–it’s not a personality flaw, it’s just a little hanger-fueled agni collapse. 

In Ayurveda, Pitta types are ruled by the fire element, and their digestive fire (agni) burns hot and fast. For any of us (not just Pitta types!) skipping meals or delaying eating can put undue stress on our agni, causing it to either grow too intense or totally burn out.

To stay balanced, prioritize eating regular meals and try to eat before you reach the point of “hanger” - this helps to keep your agni regulated and your mind clear (AND your relationships intact 😉).
                                                  Hey goddess - we are opening our doors once again Hey goddess - we are opening our doors once again to invite you on a transformative journey towards holistic well-being with our year-long, immersive Ayurvedic Wellness Coach certification training.⁠
