What is Ritu Charya in Ayurveda and how does it affect health? - #12578
I’ve recently started reading about Ayurveda and came across the term Ritu Charya. From what I understand, it refers to seasonal lifestyle and diet changes that are recommended to maintain balance in the body. Can someone explain Ritu Charya in more detail? How does following these seasonal guidelines improve overall health? I know that in Ayurveda, different seasons require different routines, such as diet, exercise, and sleep patterns. Can someone provide examples of how to follow Ritu Charya during the monsoon or summer seasons? How can this practice help with immunity and digestion? Also, is there any specific food to avoid during each season, as per Ritu Charya? Some sources say that avoiding certain foods in the wrong season can prevent diseases—what foods should be consumed during specific seasons for optimal health? If anyone follows Ritu Charya, please share your experience! Have you noticed any changes in your energy, digestion, or immunity by adjusting your routine according to the seasons?
