Taking care of yourself in the fall is crucial<\/strong> to staying healthy during the winter.<\/strong> Autumn is a season in which the vata<\/em> dynamics<\/strong> that insidiously settle in our environment with the cold and windy weather. In Ayurveda, dosha vata<\/em> is characterized by the combination of air and space<\/strong>, in other words, the principle of constant movement. However, this resurgence of movement in our environment is not without effect on us.<\/p>\n

How does it manifest? Well here are the symptoms:<\/p>\n

Nervousness, anxiety, fear
\nParched skin
\nconstipation, bloating
\nWeight loss
\nAversion to cold and wind
\nLight and split sleep
\nUnstable emotions
\nA tendency to think too much and worry<\/p>\n

To rebalance an excess of vata,<\/em>5 main principles:<\/p>\n

1. Routine<\/strong><\/p>\n

Discipline yourself to eat, work, sleep at fixed times<\/strong> and organize a daily schedule of yoga exercises<\/strong> or a physical practice that will not exhaust us<\/p>\n

2. Heat<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cover yourself to maintain body heat and avoid drafts.<\/strong> In terms of food, prefer cooked food<\/strong> to raw vegetables, use so-called warming spices as ginger, black pepper, cinnamon or cumin<\/strong>, do not drink cold drinks, but rather at room temperature or hot and finally Avoid bitter, astringent or pungent flavours<\/strong> and prefer sweet, sour or salty flavours<\/p>\n

3. Serenity<\/strong>
\nAvoid all sources of emotional stress,<\/strong>surround yourself with smells, music, images and people that inspire you softness and calming, eat calmly, sleep between 6 and 8 hours a night, do pranayama exercises, reduce on the exciting ( caffeine, nicotine, etc.).<\/p>\n

4. Nutrition<\/strong>
\nInclude good doses of vegetable oils or butter in your seasonings<\/strong>and massage the whole body daily with oil.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

5. Massages and Shirodhara<\/a><\/strong>
\nPractice Abyhanga self-massage<\/strong> regularly in sesame oil, or massage for a few hours as the morning chillapproaches.<\/strong>
\nIf you don’t have enough time for self-massage, massage your legs mainly in the evening and morning when you wake up (especially for the unbalanced Vata) or make an appointment directly.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>
