Winter and your sluggish digestive fire, Agni.
In Ayurveda, your digestive fire, Agni, slows down, so you begin to feel heavy, low energy and perhaps experience more bloating.
The cold, damp weather slows down our metabolism. As Agni weakens the food you eat, digests more slowly, making you feel fatigue, sluggish and you may experience stubborn weight gain.
The Ayurveda fix:
Drink warm liquids - tea, soup
Eat cooked meals - no raw foods
Use warming spices like ginger, cinnamon and black pepper
Gentle movement - walking, yoga, dry brushing
These simple fixes will keep Agni strong.
