Fatigue and anxiety in PCOS often arise from the imbalance in your body’s natural energies or doshas, particularly with vata and pitta being disrupted. To begin addressing these concerns, focus on grounding and harmonizing your body’s energies.
First, consider your diet. Avoid processed foods and consumption of excessive raw salads which can aggravate vata. Opt for cooked meals made of whole grains like brown rice or barley, along with vegetables like yams, carrots, and peas, which help stabilize energy levels. Spice your meals with cumin, coriander, fennel, and turmeric for enhanced digestion and metabolism. It’s also critical to eat at the same time every day to regulate agni, your digestive fire.
Next, switch your exercise routine. High intensity workouts can exacerbate fatigue. Instead, practice yoga or brisk walking for 30 minutes daily to maintain energy flow through your nadis without overexerting. Poses such as child’s pose and forward bends can soothe the mind and promote calmness.
Incorporate herbs like ashwagandha and brahmi into your routine. Ashwagandha supports the nervous system and helps alleviate stress, while brahmi aids in balancing mood swings. Take them as directed by an Ayurvedic practitioner.
For balancing emotional upheaval, develop a daily meditation practice. Just 10-15 minutes of mindful breathing each day can do wonders for inner peace and emotional clarity, grounding the pitta dosha.
If symptoms persist or worsen, partner with an Ayurvedic physician or healthcare provider to explore further personalized interventions, ensuring your path to wellness is supported and safe.
