Here are a few Ayurvedic tips to lose weight
-
Practicing 15 min of yoga every morning will benefit your mind, body and soul. Yoga is a powerful practice that detoxifies the body, stimulates digestive organs, increases circulation, and enhances the metabolism. Starting your day with asanas like Surya Namaskar and pranayama set the stage for a day devoid of unhealthy cravings and stress.
-
Eat three filling meals a day to maintain a healthy diet and stay away from those horrible starvation diets. According to Ayurveda, maintaining a healthy metabolism requires small meals with the appropriate spacing in between. Therefore, if we starve, we are actually making way for a sluggish metabolism.
-
In Vedas, excess Kapha has been known as the cause of obesity. Choose a diet that neutralizes excess Kapha. Foods that are light, warm, dry, rough, and easily digestible are good for keeping Kapha in balance.
-
Avoid stress. Stress has a direct connection with putting on excess weight. Follow a daily routine that keeps your mind calm and composed. Adopt stress-busting techniques like deep-breathing at office or self-massage with sesame oil before bath. Instead of caffeinated beverages (tea, coffee, cold drinks) drink fresh juice or Ayurvedic teas.
