Frequent bowel movements and weakness can be a sign of an underlying imbalance in your body according to Siddha-Ayurvedic principles. It’s important to address this through appropriate dietary and lifestyle changes.
Firstly, consider your digestive fire or agni. If you are unable to digest Ayurvedic medicines, it might be due to weak agni. Focus on consuming lighter foods that are easy to digest and can help stabilize your digestive system. Start your day with a glass of warm water to stimulate digestion. Include ginger in your meals, as it is known to kindle agni.
Addressing mental stress is equally crucial. Practices like Pranayama (yogic breathing) and meditation can help calm the mind and reduce stress, which in turn, can improve your digestion and overall vitality.
To strengthen the bones and overall physical strength, incorporate a diet rich in calcium and vitamin D. Include foods like sesame seeds, almonds, and leafy greens. Regular sun exposure for 15-20 minutes daily can also help enhance your vitamin D levels naturally.
An imbalance in doshas, particularly a vata imbalance, often causes weakness in the body and joints. Abhyanga (oil massage) using warm sesame oil can help balance vata, strengthening the bones and joints. Apply warm oil to your body, leave it on for a minimum of 30 minutes before taking a warm shower.
If the weakness persists despite these measures, it’s advisable to consult with a healthcare professional to rule out any serious conditions. Keep an eye on your energy levels and overall health as you make these adjustments.
