To address your symptoms, it is important to consider your dosha imbalances and digestive fire (agni). Bloating, gas, indigestion, erratic bowel movements, and the mix of constipation with diarrhea can point to aggravated Vata dosha, with possible involvement of Pitta or Kapha. Here’s how you might approach managing these symptoms through Ayurvedic principles:

Firstly, focus on your agni. Consuming warm, cooked meals can help strengthen digestive fire. Try to avoid raw foods, cold foods, and heavy-to-digest items like dairy products and fried foods. Instead, opt for light, easily digestible foods like rice, cooked vegetables, and warm soups. Adding digestion-stimulating spices such as ginger, cumin, fennel, coriander, and asafoetida can support this process.

Hydration is key. Drinking warm water throughout the day can aid digestion and help bowel movements. Try starting your day with a glass of warm water with a teaspoon of honey or a dash of lemon, which may help in alleviating constipation.

Set fixed meal times to balance your digestive rhythm, which is often disrupted by Vata imbalance. Consistency in mealtimes aids in regulating bowel movements. Consider practicing mindful eating: eat slowly, focus on the food, and avoid distractions like television or reading while eating.

Regarding bowel movements, it’s crucial to establish a routine for them. Practicing regular physical activity such as walking or gentle yoga can promote regularity and relieve bloating or abdominal discomfort.

Avoid stimulants such as caffeine and alcohol, as well as spicy foods, which can irritate Pitta and disturb digestion further. Instead, calm your system with herbs like Triphala – a balanced blend that can help support bowel regularity. Take Triphala at night, about an hour after dinner with warm water.

Managing stress is another aspect that cannot be overlooked, given its potential impact on digestive health. Techniques such as pranayama and meditation can be beneficial, calming the mind and allowing digestion to proceed more smoothly.

Consider a daily oil massage (abhyanga) with warm sesame oil. It can help pacify Vata and can be quite soothing when experiencing abdominal pain or bloating.

It’s advisable to consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner experienced in working with digestive disorders, who can provide personalized guidance and ensure these strategies fit your unique constitution. If any symptom worsens, seeking medical advice is crucial, especially due to potential complications related to age and prolonged symptoms.

Follow some simple lifestyle changes and dietary changes and you will see results for your problem.
