Sounds like you’re dealing with quite a blown-up tummy saga there! These symptoms can be tied to an imbalance in your digestive fire, or ‘Agni’ as it’s called in Ayurveda, often compounded by Vata and Pitta dosha getting a wee bit out of whack.
First things first, let’s focus on what’s going on with your Agni. Keeping it balanced is like having a happy campfire – not too bright but not smouldering either. Start by paying close attention to what (and when) you’re eating. Smaller meals spaced out evenly can really help.
Begin your day sipping warm water; this practice tends to kindle digestive fire. Try winding down with a cup of cumin, coriander, and fennel tea. You’d steep all three seeds in boiling water for ten minutes or so – this gentle concoction can work wonders on bloating and gas.
You might also wanna look at the qualities of the food you’re having. Opt for easy-to-digest meals – like kitchari, which combines rice and mung dal. Avoid raw, cold, and oily foods, as they can be heavy on your tummy and may aggravate the symptoms.
Timing’s also a key player! Try having your biggest meal when your digestive fire is at its peak – typically midday. In the afternoon or late evening, go for something lighter.
Yoga’s a brilliant ally too, keep it simple though. Gentle twists like Ardha Matsyendrasana could help, just to give your insides a nice squeeze and release kinda action.
Mindful breathing, even a few minutes, can calm your nervous system down and that could help regulate your digestion too. But - avoid stressful situations around meal times! And lastly, this one’s vital: Listen to your body. If anythigns gets too uncomfortable, don’t wait around… seek professional care.
