Happy time change, Habit Thrivers!Today, on Episode #142 of the Habit Thrive Podcast, we're talking about how you can use the time change as a natural jumping-off point for March, spring planning and habit shifts.Whether you're feeling an extra boost of energy or are struggling with the adjustment this time change, it's a perfect opportunity to refresh routines, set new intentions and align our habits with the season ahead.These tips and strategies work not only for the time change but for any shift in your life:✔illness✔travel✔movingSo, why is navigating the time change more challenging to some?For one, our age (or the season of our lives).As we age, consistency does seem to become more important.Routines and consistency help us maintain our physical and mental wellbeing, so disruptions to that can really throw us off our game.Pay attention to the importance of the timing of everything - when you eat, when you take medications or supplements, when you exercise, when you go to sleep and when you wake up.Second, we are affected by our or dosha.Vatas are more sensitive to change and should give themselves some grace here.• practice letting go into sleep• eat warming, nourishing foods• warm with oil massagePittas are champions of change and may even be impatient with others who don't handle the time change well.But don't let your excitement over time change get away from you - the burnout is real!Pittas still need to take time to relax, stay calm and avoid over-stimulationKaphas struggle with feeling sluggish in general, so it may take them a couple of weeks to adjust.Try small changes like staying with warming foods while slowly transitioning to the cooling foods, and having a little exercise session in the morning to get the blood flowing.How long does it take us to adjust to the time change?Research says it takes 3-7 days for the body to fully adjust, but some of us (I'm looking at you, Vatas) can take up to 2 weeks.What are the top ways to manage a time change?1. If you're having trouble falling asleep at night, keep something like a meditation or breathing practice on hand to help start that shift into relaxation.2. Get the natural daylight. Step outside within 30 minutes of waking to help reset your body clock.3. Limit evening screen time to avoid overstimulation.4. Stay hydrated, and have your heavier meal earlier in the day.5. Move your body in the morning - Bonus points for moving your body outside.Remember: We're not just surviving the time change. It is an opportunity to reset your habits, refresh your energy, and align with the season ahead.Lorrie xoxoxMentioned in this episode:Take the dosha quizLoving the show? Let's connect!

As we continue with our theme of strength

As intuitives, you may think initially that if something doesn't feel good, you need to run in the opposite direction

This season brings the utimate joy in our lives, but I also notice that this is the time of year that my boundaries are tested the most. I love to indulge but overindulging leaves me feeling heavy. I love hanging out with family and friends but when I neglate my alone time, I feel disconnected from my intuition. So I am breaking down how we can still experience the bliss of the holidays while also staying in balanced. In this episode, I cover:

In this episode I chat about all things life with my dear friend, Pooja, a nurse, (ex-)photographer, skincare guru and now the founder of Amala Skin Therapy & Aesthetics, a clinic that offers a range of skincare and aesthetics services based in east London. I've always loved chatting to Pooja because not only is she super chill, she's also extremely insightful and self-aware. We cover everything from not really knowing what you want to do in life, to perceptions around cultural appropriation on social media vs in real life, to what working with extremely high profile clients on Harley Street has taught her, to skincare to just trusting the process.

VIDEO VERSION: https://youtu.be/fMfnyEcnJis Introducing Hector: Hector's journey to becoming a renowned DJ started at the age of 16 when he first stepped behind the decks. Originally from Mexico, his ambition led him to seek opportunities beyond his hometown, eventually finding his way to the vibrant music scene in London. Working at the legendary Phonica record shop proved to be a pivotal moment, as he crossed paths with influential figures like Anja Schneider and Loco Dice, who later offered him positions on their esteemed imprints, mobilee and Desolat. Through his association with Desolat, Hector solidified his place as an exciting and dynamic player in the global music scene. His captivating performances while touring the world garnered a strong and devoted following, earning him respect from fans and industry peers alike. Alongside his DJ career, Hector's hunger for artistic evolution led him to produce his own music, which was quickly picked up by highly respected labels such as mobilee, Desolat, One Records, and Tsuba. With an unrelenting desire to conquer the world's biggest clubs and festivals, Hector has made a name for himself as a resident DJ at Marco Carola's Music On in Ibiza. He has also graced renowned festivals like Time Warp, DEMF, Kazantip, Awakenings, BPM, Hideout, and Sunwaves, while delivering unforgettable club sets at esteemed venues like Tokyo's Womb, Space Miami, Fabric London, and New York's Output. In 2015, Hector shifted his focus to supporting others by forming the Vatos Locos crew, an assembly of talented and underrated producers and DJs who emerged during BPM Festival in Mexico. The crew operates as a family, emphasizing a democratic and ego-free approach to creating unforgettable experiences. From WMC and Movement in Detroit to Sonar and Ibiza's Underground, the Vatos Locos crew has brought their unique vibe to audiences worldwide. Hector's commitment to nurturing emerging talents extends to every aspect of Vatos Locos, including their record label, parties, and tours. VL Recordings, launched in 2016, aims to spotlight lesser-known artists and Hector's closest friends. With releases from artists like Mahony, Seb Zito, David Gtronic, and the VL crew, the label continues to showcase exceptional music. Hector's dedication to the brand goes beyond his DJ career. He oversees the entire process, from merchandise design to event production, encouraging the entire Vatos Locos crew to contribute to decision-making. As Hector's empire expands across the globe, he remains focused on maintaining the highest standards of quality and promoting his Vatos Locos familia. With an unwavering passion and clear vision, this Mexican powerhouse shows no signs of slowing down, leaving an indelible mark on the world of DJing.

Ernährung im Ayurveda und vor allem für Vatas kann sehr komplex erscheinen - aber wenn du es einmal verstanden hast, ist es wirklich super easy. Heute geht es um das Essen gehen, was insbesondere jetzt in den wärmeren Monaten ja umso mehr Spaß macht, wenn man draußen gemeinsam sitzen kann.   Aber: Besonders wenn du schon länger Themen mit deiner Verdauung hast, oder lange hattest, ist der Restaurant-Besuch für dich ggf. nicht so easy. Dabei ist Essen gehen so etwas Schönes und Geselliges. Heute erfährst du... - wie sich Verdauungsprobleme äußern - welche Angewohnheit beim Essen gehen dein Verdauungsfeuer killt - welche Gerichte vermieden werden sollten - 5 wertvolle Tipps aus meinem Erfahrungsschatz , mit denen du deine Restaurantbesuche trotz Vata-High und wechselhafter Verdauung genießen kannst Ich wünsche dir viel Genuss mit dieser Folge.

Nachdem wir lange über Erdung in Verbindung mit unserem Unterbewusstsein gesprochen haben, möchte ich mich in den nächsten Folgen wieder dem Thema Ernährung nähern. Ernährung im Ayurveda und vor allem für Vatas kann sehr komplex erscheinen - aber wenn du es einmal verstanden hast, ist es wirklich super easy.   Heute geht es um Kaffee. Ist es wirklich so, dass du als Vata keinen Kaffee trinken kannst? Kaffee wirkt allgemein trocknend und anregend - und kann damit Vata potenziell steigern. Aber bedeutet das wirklich, dass du als Vata keinen Kaffee trinken solltest? Inhalte dieser Folge: - Auffrischung der Vata-Basics - warum milder Kaffee nicht unbedingt schonender für deinen Magen (und für Vata-Typen) ist - wie du Würze in deinen Kaffee bringst - warum Kaffee dich müde macht und wie du dies verhinderst Die Umfrage zum Kurs: Der ultimative Vata-Ernährungsguide: https://bit.ly/umfrage-vata-ernaehrung Lade dir meinen Fahrplan zu innerer Ruhe für 0€ herunter: https://www.nataliehardelt.de/fahrplan-zu-innerer-ruhe Anmeldung beim Ayurveda Love Letter: https://bit.ly/ayurveda-love-letter Buche deine Unterbewusstseins-Sitzung mit Natalie: https://www.nataliehardelt.de/psych-k/

In this new month of the Habit Thrive Podcast, we are going to be tackling - or, to put it a better way, embracing - the decluttering of our lives, our homes, our minds and our bodies. To kick things off this week on Episode #45, we are decluttering our way to happiness. Because, if you're anything like me, then being decluttered equals being, well, at least a little happier. That's the Vata side of me. Vatas like decluttering, but they get distracted easily, going down rabbit holes or being drawn to other activities in the house. That's me! You, on the other hand, might be a PItta: You want to “get ‘er done.” You prefer to empty the whole room, clean it, organize it … done! Or maybe you're a Kapha: Very loyal and emotionally attached to your belongings and possessions. (In this case, you might find it difficult to declutter and let go of things.) Actually knowing your personality type is the first of three steps we are discussing today in decluttering your way to happiness: How to make decluttering more appealing to your personality How to make it a habit and stick with it How to reward yourself and celebrate We are going to explore playing with… WHEN to declutter - Morning or night? Weekday or weekend? All day or just for a short time? WHERE to declutter - The garage? The kitchen? The sun room? HOW decluttering brings us both extrinsic and intrinsic rewards. By the end of this episode, I hope to have ignited in you a sense of playfulness and interest in how yoga, ayurveda and habits all come together on a daily basis - even around something as seemingly mundane as decluttering. So, are you ready? Take the Dosha quiz, pick a room (or a closet or a drawer…) and let's get decluttered! Lorrie xoxox Want to know your dosha? Take the quiz at chopra.com Loving the show?

En Ayurvéda, il existe 3 types de personnes : les Vatas, les Pittas et les Kaphas. Dans cet extrait, Rita nous explique ces 3 profils et comment découvrir le votre. Extrait issu de l'épisode 10.

In which the author talks about how to see. Ayurveda divides us into three phenotypes: vata, pitta and kapha. Vatas have acute hearing and enjoy the sense of touch— if my memory serves right. Pittas have acute vision and enjoy the sense of smell. Kaphas have acute taste and enjoy the sense of touch. As a classic vata, I have acute hearing, as a result of which I'm very sensitive to the sound of birds. As I write this, I hear three birds: a wagtail, a bulbul, and a parakeet. This can become a curse when I hear the sound of a bird that I cannot identify. I obsess about it and go to an app called "Bird Calls," that is loaded on my phone to try to figure it out. It has to do with a way of seeing that is cultivable but not necessarily common. If you have it; that's a gift. Some people can see owls just by walking past. The trick to quick identification is observing size and shape, colour patterns, behavior and habitat according to this website. I have still not cultivated this way of seeing yet. Mostly I stare at a tree where the bird-calls emanate from and wait for movement. I cannot drive by birds on telephone poles and quickly identify them. Where I score is with the sound. Once I hear and identify a bird by it call, I never forget it. Even now, I can wake up and listen to the trill of a Kingfisher calling at a distance and know that it is in my neighborhood. I know the rosy starlings who have migrated from Tajikistan by their excited cheep-cheeps; the bulbul, by its sweet piercing whistle that echoes around my building; and the wagtail by its loud call, unusual for a bird so small. My bird watching happens through the day. Usually, when I'm bored or have nothing to do, I pick up my binoculars and look out. Usually I see something. There was the time when it was raining. I trained my binoculars on a Ficus tree, and found a golden oriole perched on the top. It did the most amazing thing. It circled and went upside down on the branch, almost as if it wanted the rain to wet its underside. It had been a terribly hot day. As I stood in doors and watched the oriole enjoy the water drops, I felt like doing the same. In another branch, a black drongo (Dicurus macrocercus) sat perfectly sit, enduring the rain that was pouring on its black head. In the beginning, with blind ambition, I decided that I would memorize the Latin names for all the bird species that I saw. I have given up that endeavor now. It is complicated enough to keep track of the markings and learn the common names. This then is the other learning that will occur: spotting minor differences between birds that belong to the same species: white cheeked barbet, gray-headed barbet, coppersmith barbet, blue-throated barbet, you get the picture. They all belong to the Megalaima species. It doesn't come easy but I struggle at it anyways. Slowly and surely, like a tortoise, I'm climbing up the hill of taxonomy and nature watching.

Gerade im Bereich Ernährung verlernen wir früh auf unsere Intuition zu hören. In der heutigen Folge geht es daher um die intuitive Ernährung für Vatas nach Ayurveda. Ich gebe dir Tipps aus meiner eigenen Erfahrung & Ressourcen an die Hand, wie du dich in kleinen Schritten wieder mit deiner Intuition verbindest und zurück zum intuitiven Essen findest. Ich wünsche dir viel Freude mit meinen Impulsen aus dieser Folge.

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions:  Simon: Hi Dr Cabral,I've listened to all your podcasts on fasting and detoxing and now do a daily 12-14hr fast and an (almost weekly) 1 day reset fast. I am curious though: as a Vata-Pita who is a bit too stressed and getting a bit less rest than I'd like to (though otherwise healthy), is a day's fasting putting my body under more stress than I should be? Also, rather than getting the ‘mental clarity' many speak of with fasting I tend to get brain fog and lethargy; aside from being inconvenient is this a concern and is there anything i can do to counter it without impacting the detox and autophagy benefits? Thirdly, I'd love to hear your thoughts on going lunch-to-lunch instead of dinner-to-dinner? I find skipping dinner easier and figure it means I'm not breaking my fast with a big meal close to bed and also benefit from a nights sleep on a very empty stomach. Thanks so much! Simon: Hi again, I have a couple more questions about the 1 day reset: would taking a typical ‘liver detox' supplement (milk thistle, dandelion, schisandra, etc) during the 1-day reset assist with liver detoxification? Also, is it ok to swap out some shakes with bone broth? Or even lemon/salt water if I'm not hungry? So many other questions but I'll leave it at that! Thank you for giving so much time and energy to the community! Lindsay: Hello. In today's podcast (7/11) you mentioned if you have low blood pressure you are unlikely able to drink as much water as you need without salt. Can you elaborate on that? I have low blood pressure and have a hard time drinking water. Wondering if there is a correlation. Meghan: Hi Dr C, I have been going back through previous shows and there seems to be a fair few that mention C Sections and after care with scar tissue and what not but I couldn't seem to find any that look at how to prep the body before having a C Section to help support both the Mum and baby? Also did you have any tips/thoughts about exposing the baby with the mothers bacteria to try and help support the babies microbiome that it will be missing not coming through the vaginal bacteria and anything else that a Mum can do in preparation of a C section birth? Thanks so much. Meghan: Hey Dr C, following on from my previous question about prepping for a C section. Is there anything in particular that I can do to reduce my chances of developing any post surgery blood clots? Thanks Nick: Hi Dr. Cabral! Love the podcast. I'm writing to you seeking help for my wife. She has a long history of mental illness(schizophrenia, psychosis, catatonia). She spent 3 weeks at the phsyciatric hospital last winter. Spent 6 months in phychosis without any help from medications. She started working with a functional medicine doctor last summer that ran a stool test and she suspected a parasite. She prescribed alinia and put her on sbi protect immunoglobins and within a couple days started coming out of psychosis. Over the last few months she started having another setback after trying to stop the sbi protect immunoglobins. Started getting brain on fire feeling and alot of head fullness and and pressure. We ran the big 5 and confirmed she has some elevated candida, aluminum, and tpo antibodies close to 500. She is currently on the parasite protocol. and then the limited yeast and heavy metal detox. She is about to undergo a lumbar puncture to test for nmdr receptor encephalitis. It's been a slow long process and would really appreciate any more wisdom you could give us on this issue.

Die Eigenschaften von Vata sind bewegt, luftig, trocken und kalt. Mit übermäßig stark ausgeprägtem Vata-Dosha fühlt man sich daher schnell innerlich unruhig. Man hat nach dem Essen einen aufgeblähten Bauch und fragt sich, was man überhaupt noch gefahrlos essen kann. Der Magen reagiert super nervös auf Stress und Überforderung. Zusätzlich hat man vielleicht noch eine trockene Haut und kann schwer entspannen und in Stille sein. Eine passende Ernährung gleicht bestenfalls all diese Eigenschaften aus, um eine innere Balance zu bewirken. Wie das konkret aussehen kann? In der heutigen Podcastfolge erhältst du sieben leicht umsetzbare Tipps. Probiere einfach aus, was dich anspricht und teste, was sich nachhaltig gut für dich anfühlt. Es geht hier immer um dich.

Ich sehe allgemein die Tendenz, dass viele Menschen überzeugt sind, sie hätten zu wenig von dem Feuer-Element beziehungsweise von dem Pitta Dosha. Das stimmt sicherlich auch in vielen Fällen - allerdings nicht so, wie die meisten denken...

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions:  Lynn: If I am a Vata should I be limiting my raw food, for instance salads (my favorite food) and eat mostly cooked foods? Simon: Hi Dr Cabral, I have a question on internal air quality. The floor of my office building is about to be refurbished including new carpets, paint and furniture. Being a multi-storey office building without openable windows, I was already concerned about the indoor air quality, however this will no doubt make things much worse. Apart from spending as little time indoors as possible, is there any thing else I can do to minimise the health impacts (such as supplements or practices)? Many thanks! Sarah: Dear Dr. Cabral, After my stool test showed bacterial overgrowth, I am on week 3 of the CBO with the citricidal drops, and started having heart burn for the first time. I never had this before - my main symptoms before were severe bloating and gas, but not heart burn. Now, for the last two weeks I've had this reflux either before a meal or after. I've been following the CBO protocol diet strictly, with the enzymes. Can you help me understand why this new symptom has developed - is it normal for this to happen on the CBO, is it die-off, or is it related to stomach acid? Will it get better after more weeks or do you recommend I do anything specific to address it? Thank you for all your help. Bob: Hello Dr. Cabral, I have been listening to you for about a year and enjoy the daily information that you have been given. I look forward to listening each day and appreciate your passion to help bring us the truth and best for us and our families I live in Vietnam currently (an American working as an ex-pat) I want to find someone over here I can work with. I have looked up Functional medicine doctors and Aryvaic Doctors and Doctors of naturopathy but I still get a little confused on the difference and which one is the best to work with. I don't have any big issues that I am aware of and my overall health is ok but needs to lose a little weight. My goal is to improve my health and live longer and be able to live life to the fullest with plenty of energy and loof and feel great. Based on listing to you would recommend starting with some tests and agree but what type of doctor or doctors should I be reaching out to help in my goals Afra: Hi Dr. Cabral, Listen to you regularly and I hear you all the time say there is no pressure to you the equil.LIfe brands but you if you don't we should be looking out or making sure that what we purchase has no something or make sure it has plenty of something else in that brand. Do you have this information relating to this all in one place that I can use as a reference when deciding to purchase as I live overseas and and hard to get in-country and I want to check locally but ensure it is doing the job. I do understand that your products are better and as I make trips to the US I can try to stock up as well. Anonymous: Hi Dr Cabral, I wrote in earlier this year about having squiggly things in my urine and you answered it for a male related to the prostate but I am actually a 30 year old female and so curious what these are a reflection of.

Bask in stillness, find your center, invite peace into your beingness as we invoke the mantra of So Hum " I am that" into our vibration and spirit. As a vata dosha, we thrive and flow when we are grounded, supported, and when we take the time to rest our awareness in the stillness of our spirit. Resting our awareness on a mantra or affirmation helps our mind focus in meditation and not get lost or attached to arising thoughts. Peace + Blessings on your journey.

People can have roughness in their skin. These are ways that we might see the quality of rough. Vata is also subtle. Even when you start thinking about how huge this universe, you live in actually is.” “They have, in so many ways, these incredible, innate superpowers that are all about being like a super-sensitive instrument. And what can be so hard about being a Vata, about having Vata predominance in your constitution is that the modern world is hyper-stimulated.” “Netflix says its biggest competitor is sleep.”  “the biggest issue for most modern-day Vatas, is that life in the modern world is very challenging, right? There's a lot of draws in your attention. There's a lot of opportunities, there's too much to do. The endless to-do list can all get done and you are limited. You're limited in your energy.”

Marisa Demarco had me over to her studio, where, in front of a table full of cheap gold earrings she was currently turning into a circuit board, she told me about her worst show ever. There's no way for me to accurately describe this amazing person without saying she's a living pioneer of experimental music and one of my personal musical heroes. It was an honor to have her on the show and get deep into intersections of politics, experimentation, and performance. Not only does she bring years of experience playing in some of my favorite musical acts (Bigawatt, Chicharra, Big Hen, and more), but her unique perspective as a founder and curator of Gatas y Vatas festival in Albuquerque made for some great stories and observations.

Show Notes: There are a lot of ideas of how we should eat: eat 6 small meals a day, eat 3 meals a day, intermittent fasting, and the Ayurvedic theory of eating according to your dosha. Ayurvedic Theory: It’s based on the GI tract and how your digestive system works.  We create a backlog in the digestive tract if we meal stack, so we shouldn't eat one meal before the previous one is digested. It could look something like this: we have food in the large intestine that we ate 6 hours ago and food in the small intestine that we ate 4 hours ago and now we have food in the stomach that we just ate. This is causing a backup of food. If we eat something, it goes into the GI tract and is now sitting in the stomach being digested. If we then eat a snack a little while later, we have food in different phases of digestion, adding undigested food to partially digested food, which will then cause digestion to slow down and work harder to digest all of the food that are in these different stages of digestion. The problem with this is it doesn’t deal with the law of pulsation, between empty and full. When we have a lot of little frequent pulsations by eating several small meals in a day, we don’t get to experience true emptiness and true fullness. It also has to do with deep peace. There is a stillness that comes from emptiness, and there is a stillness that comes from fullness too. And we can really tell what we want when we’re really hungry. When you don’t know what you want to eat, like when you open the fridge or the pantry door and just stand there looking at the food choices and you can’t decide what to choose, you’re not really hungry; you are eating because of something emotional that’s going on. When you’re truly hungry, you will know what you want to eat and you will eat something. You are in tune with your desire. This is why yogis go into a fast at least twice a year, at the beginning of spring and the beginning of fall. Some of us do it four times a year, with the change of seasons. We detox to awaken our desire. Desire is smart. Smart desire is different from this kind of unsure desire. If you’re having an unsure desire to eat, not knowing what you want to eat or eating too many times in a day, you are just getting bounced around and you may think “oh I’ll just have another snack.” This desire to eat is not coming from being deeply hungry and wanting deep satiation. This is where a lot of cravings and addictions come from because we are not comfortable with the emptiness. We are not feeling that deep peace of stillness and emptiness. If you are not a meal stacker, you know the feeling of being ready to eat, of being ready to receive food, because you are empty. When you are empty, your blood sugar will shift your metabolism into a state of fat metabolism and you will be ready to replenish your blood sugar. With meal stacking, we may have food in all of these phases of digestion, and as these foods build up, there is less energy available for everything else. There is not even enough energy for the food that is coming in to be digested completely. So there is a backup or a traffic jam of food, and we don’t want that feeling. We want a feeling of clarity. Even after we have a big meal, we want to have the feeling of being ready to receive. We don’t want to feel exhausted after a big meal. When food is backed up, what happens next is that there is an accumulation of ama, or toxins. If you are more vata, you will have a vata accumulation in your colon. The feces will get dry and hard, it will push back up and you will end up getting bloating. You can even start having pressure on the heart muscle because there is no room for the heart to drop. When air is trapped, it gets hard. Imagine air in a balloon. When too much air is forced in, the balloon gets really hard. The same thing happens in your digestive tract when air gets trapped. The bloating is so intense that it will hurt and get really hard and feel like cramping. For pittas, there is a different kind of ama accumulation. It will get acidic. Either there will be loose feces if the pitta goes down or heartburn if the pitta goes up. Excess Kapha accumulates in the stomach, and Kapha is associated with heaviness and water and mucus, so there is a buildup of a feeling heaviness in the stomach. So Kapha will have a slow digestion and there won’t be much appetite. Because the entire digestive tract is all surrounded by blood vessels that are trying to get nutrients into the circulation, you can imagine how excess vata gets picked up from the colon and enters the blood as excess air, how excess pitta gets picked up from the small intestine and brings an acidic nature to the blood, and excess kapha gets picked up from the stomach and circulates heavy dense qualities in the blood. The excess vata will come down as gas in the colon through the anus or will go up as bloating as I mentioned before, the excess pitta will come up as hyperacidity or down as loose stool, and the excess kapha show up as excess mucus in the lungs and sinuses. Then the excess doshas will circulate in the blood and enter the mind. Vata will show up as anxiety or a feeling of being ungrounded or overwhelm, pitta will show up as irritation, and kapha will show up as depression or lethargy. And then they move on to the weak points in the body. They can end up in the joints and you wake up feeling ama in the morning as stiff joints. If we feel stiffness in our joints in the morning, this is a good sign that we want to go toward emptiness and we want to do deeper into our digestion to feel lighter. So we might want to start off with a green juice for breakfast, or take in more smoothies and soups, because these are lighter foods. This will allow the doshas to start to clear from the digestive tract. When the doshas build up in the GI tract because we’re meal stacking or because we are not eating at regular times, it’s not good because we are wasting so much energy. The doshas start to over accumulate and circulate in the blood, and then settle in the mind-body. This creates a backlog of stuff like those emotions I mentioned earlier (anxiety, irritation, or depression) in the mind as well. This is the emotional-gut reaction that so many people talk about now, but Ayurveda has known this for over a few thousand years. In terms of the doshas, eat twice a day if you’re kapha and eat 3x a day if you’re pitta or vata. If you’re convalescing or have a really weak digestive system, you can eat 4x a day. We want these pulsations to stabilize our meals. Eat regularly at the same time every day. Then agni (digestive fire) knows when to show up to digest our food. Main agni shows up in the middle of the day around lunchtime, so that is why we want to eat our biggest and heaviest meal for lunch. We want to fast in between meals. We should only be taking in water between meals. This is especially true between the evening meal and breakfast so there is more than 12 hours of fasting occurring during the night, when it is dark. We want to eat in daylight hours. There are some exceptions of course, like in winter when it’s dark before 6pm, that’s a great time to eat easily digestible food like broths, soups, and stews. Again, make sure to eat foods that are harder to digest at lunch when agni is strongest. It may sound straight forward and basic on the surface. Just eat mindfully. When we really do it, we start to see massive shifts. We will have to shift a lot of relationships, even if it is just our relationship with food or our relationship with ourselves and how we spend our time. Eating healthier is a trajectory. We never arrive. We simply become more wise at nourishing the complexity of who we are with the simplicity of our informed habits. Let’s go a little deeper into healthier eating guidelines. It really starts with feeling in touch with what our body wants. Do a body scan. Start with hands on your belly, and feel the breath. This is a simple way to tap into relaxed breathing. The idea is that we are in touch with what is going on inside, like how do I feel, where is my breath moving, how does my belly feel, how does my heart feel, how does my womb feel, how does my brain feel, how does my back feel, what would help me feel better, what emotions are present right now taking space, am I ready to receive or am I full, am I content, if I am ready to receive what am I ready to receive? Start there with the qualities, or the gunas. Am I ready for something that is heavy or light, do I want something that is warm or cool, what tastes would feel good right now, something spicy or sweet, do I want something soothing or energizing? In the most basic way, let’s notice what we really want if we are ready to receive, what does the body really want, let ourselves choose viscerally, trust our cravings, trust the body, be connected, and then enhance the connection. Eating is a celebration, even when our food is simple. These are some basic Ayurvedic healthier eating guidelines: Be hungry. Be ready to receive. Don’t confuse thirst and hunger. Drink room temperature water or warm water between meals to clarify this relationship. Eat really good nutrients for breakfast like a simple cereal or a green smoothie. Start out on track. Eat during daylight hours. Have a satisfying lunch. Notice the prana in your food. Don’t be distracted. Pause and experience gratitude. Love your food and those who prepared it before it becomes your body. Notice the tastes and how they change as they mix with your physiology. If you tend to overeat, focus on getting full with more senses than just your tongue. Or eat a big salad using orange juice for dressing with no fat. Fast between meals, drinking only water. Eat just as much and as frequently as your body needs. Be honest. Vatas eat 4 times per day, Pittas eat 3 times a day, and Kaphas eat 2 times a day. Relax after eating. After a big meal, rest for 15 minutes and then walk. Eat a light dinner, leaving time to digest before bed. Learn about your constitution. Eat for your individual needs. Eat your ecosystem. The outer ecosystem is becoming your inner ecosystem (your body). Simply honor what is happening, and the intelligence of the process will refine itself through you. Prepare your own food. Shop or harvest from your body’s needs and desires. Get on schedule. Eat green. Click here for your: Healthy Eating ebook.

Show Notes: This season we are going to be talking about Healthy Habits so that we can feel younger and healthier. When it comes to getting your body moving, set things up the night before. Set your work out clothes where you’ll see them. Make it hard not to do the new behavior. When you’re highly motivated, maybe you can look up some exercise videos on youtube that you like, and you can save the ones you like. There are natural periods of low and high motivation. Do the hard things when you have high motivation. We don’t want to expect ourselves to be highly motivated. We don’t want to set ourselves up for failure, so do the super easy thing that sets you up as fail proof for each habit. We want to do baby steps for change. Make it so easy that you can’t say no. It is not about motivation; it is about the small changes sequenced right. We are lining up with nature’s rhythms to have better energy, better rest, and better eating habits. Ayurveda and exercise physiology: it’s important to exercise during the Kapha time of day because it’s the densest part of the day, so we will get less imbalances. If we don’t exercise during the strongest part of the day, then we don’t have enough prana and we get more imbalances. This is the time of day to get out of your sleepy body into your physical body. It’s important that we move 20 minutes a day before breakfast. How you move is less important. Daily Burn.com and other free fitness channels have many 15 minute workouts that you could try if you need some ideas or guidance on how to move your body. You’re going to create a pattern for the rest of your life. You can practice deep breathing (pranayama) first. It’s just 20 minutes, so that we can shift to fat metabolism for the whole day. It’s a non-negotiable. Right after drinking your water and eliminating, it is time to workout — before breakfast. It’s important to move your body before you put food in your body because your body will feel lighter and more energetic. Start with 1 minute. It will turn into 2 minutes. Then 5 minutes. Then 10 minutes. Then eventually 20 minutes. It could take a year to get there. That’s totally ok. If you’re a Vata, then your practice should give you the qualities that you want to feel for the rest of the day. Pittas don’t have any trouble with exercising, so this is an easy habit for them. For Kapha, your practice should leave you feeling light for the rest of the day (i.e. jumping). If you don't know your dosha, go online and take a quick dosha quiz to find out. Dr. Eric Grasser describes movement into 3 types: Hardening, Softening, and Cardio. And we have 3 body types: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. We can also have 3 intensities of workouts: Easy, Medium, and Hard. We need balance between hardening, softening, and cardio as well as between easy, medium, and hard workouts. Softening practices increase flexibility, sensitivity, and integration; and they also connect prana (i.e. yoga, water sports, recovery for athletes). Hardening practices are strengthening and can invigorate prana (i.e. weight training, kettle bells, important for bone density and decreasing osteoporosis). Cardio practices increase coordination, oxygenation, and circulation (i.e. running). All 3 types of practices increase circulation. If there are no easy workouts mixed in, you are going to get injured eventually. Vatas: need more softening and more easy to moderate workouts because they have the least endurance and the most delicate structure. They can get injured easily if they overdo it. Pittas: they are very driven and like hard workouts. They need more moderate to easy and more cardio and softening. They get too much inflammation when they only do hardening and hard workouts. Kapha: they need hard, hardening, and cardio workouts. They can handle it even though they don’t want to do it. They also need stretching and softening workouts everyday. Tips to architect your environment for maximum exercise: Some things you can do during the day while you’re working is carry small weights or use ankle weights while you’re walking. You can have a small indoor trampeline in your house to jump on while you’re watching TV. You can also wear a fitbit to monitor your steps. Pulsation or Spanda: the more that you push yourself and then relax, the healthier you’re going to be. Nature is all about pulsation: winter/summer, hot/cold, etc. Exercising should be easy, easy, hard. It’s a cycle. We want to see diversity with our workouts and with our food. Pulsating movements during the day is very important! Do not sit for more than 90 minutes at a time when you’re working. Take movement breaks. Move around for 5 minutes. If you don’t do this already, do it in a Kaizen way. Sit while working for 30 minutes, and then take a 1 minute break. You will feel more vibrant and get better ideas. How do you think you can vary your workouts so that you are getting a good balance of softening/hardening/cardio and easy/medium/hard? Design your own exercises. They shouldn’t be boring or stagnant. Do you need to be outside more or inside more, do you need more cardio, stretching, jumping, or do you need a workout buddy or accountability partner? Make a weekly plan: It should include hard, medium, and easy practices. Mix up your workouts with running/walking/hiking, different classes like cross-fit and yoga, weight training, etc. Add stretching/foam rolling at the beginning of hardening practices. The more you like your workouts, the more you will look forward to it and the more likely you will be to stick to it. Don’t add in workouts that you know you won’t do. Remember to move throughout the day as well. Focus on 20 minutes in the morning, but also move during the day. Step away from the computer, move, breathe, even for a few seconds, it’s enough to connect the pranic body. Accountability partners are very helpful with workouts.  Visualization before going to bed is another good trigger. Visualize going running when you get up in the morning. Some people know they should exercise, but they don’t like it. For podcast listeners, I have created some awesome downloads to help you keep track of your daily workouts and build your habit of moving your body and your breath every day.  Click here for your Exercise Tip Sheet and Workout Charts.   Namaste, Dr. Michele ****************************** If there is a topic you would like me to address or if there is a question you would like answered, please reach out.

Ayurveda says that each dosha requires a slightly different diet. This is where Ayurvedic eating really becomes customized and acts in a way as preventative medicine. If we are eating the right foods for our unique bodies, our minds will thrive, our bodies will function well, and our immunity will be strong! Vatas are very light and airy. They will need foods that are grounding, stabilizing and warm. Since vatas don't have a lot of structure, their food needs to have more structure or they will get weak and their tissues will break down. They need to eat what I call "building" foods. Pittas are slightly oily, hot and sharp. They will also need foods that are cooling, fresh, and mild. They will also need grounding foods but for a different reason — pittas will burn through food quickly, so if it's not substantial enough, they will be hungry (and cranky!) often. Pittas have medium structure and also need "building" foods so their naturally strong digestive fire stays strong, without burning up the tissues. Kaphas are already quite built! They need light, warm, spicy foods to ignite some heat! Kaphas don't need grounding or overly "building" foods because they have that naturally. Too much of those types of foods and kaphas will feel heavy and tend toward weight gain and sluggishness. Subscribe & Review in iTunes Have you subscribed to my podcast?

Deshalb empfiehlt man einem Vata Typ einen Pitta Typ zur Seite, der beim Verwirklichen mithilft. Vatas sollten ein Ideenbuch führen. Wenn das Vata mal etwas zu hoch ist und viele Gedanken und Unruhe in den Geist kommen, dann ist eine Entspannung angesagt.
