Kayam Churna is habit forming so stop it as soon possible.

Add hing(aseofoteda) in your meals. Eat a small piece of ginger half n hr before both meals. Avoid drinking too much water during and after meals.

Avipatikar churna 1tsp twice a day before meals with lukewarm water. Tab Shankhavati 2 tabs after meals twice a day ( eat it like hajmola) Castor oil 2-3 tsp with a cup of hot water while sleeping

Constipation is sign of the poor digestion of food. You feel abdominal heaviness that indicates low digestive power. Taking any laxative is not solution, it may be habit forming and in some case worsen the symptoms…you may follow below given instructions to get rid of your problem 1. Eat only when you feel hunger and eat half of your hunger. 2. Eat boiled green grams, vegetables soup ( avoid raw vegetables), Kichidi, daliya ect. Light diet. 3. Don’t drink cold water…drink Lukewarm water through out the day.

Dealing with constipation can be quite uncomfortable, but Ayurveda offers several holistic ways to help restore balance and improve digestion. Your reliance on Kayam Churna indicates a need to address the root cause rather than just managing symptoms. Sounds like your Agni, or digestive fire, might be low, and there could be an imbalance in Vata dosha, which is crucial in bowel movements.

Firstly, let’s focus on diet. It’s important to incorporate foods that are easily digestible and rich in fiber. Consider starting your day with warm water, perhaps infused with lemon. It can help stimulate digestion. Throughout the day, ensure you’re properly hydrated by drinking warm water; this supports the movement of Vata and prevents the bowels from becoming too dry.

Include cooked vegetables in meals, particularly those known for aiding digestion like spinach, carrots, or squash. Avoid raw and overly spicy foods, as they might aggravate your condition. Adding a teaspoon of ghee to meals can provide lubrication and help in digestion.

Triphala, an ayurvedic blend of three fruits, is renowned for its gentle but effective relief from constipation. You can take half to one teaspoon with warm water at night before bed. Be patient with this; sometimes natural remedies take a bit longer to show their full effects.

Focus on regularizing your routine. Try eating meals at the same time daily, and spending some time in the morning for a bowel movement. Regular excercise, such as a 30-minute walk or gentle yoga, can also stimulate digestion.

It’s crucial to avoid stress, as it can aggravate Vata imbalances. Deep breathing exercises or meditation might soothe the mind and improve digestion.

If your condition doesn’t improve or worsens, it’s wise to consult with a healthcare provider. Severe or prolonged constipation deserves professional attention to rule out any underlying conditions.

Remember, gentle, sustainable changes can make a significant difference over time.
