Confused About How to Use an Ayurveda Chart for My Daily Routine - #2306

been trying to follow Ayurvedic practices for a while now, but honestly, I’m all over the place. I’ve seen these "Ayurveda charts" online that list out foods, routines, and activities based on your dosha type, but I can’t figure out how to use it properly. For example, I’m not sure whether I’m following the right foods listed on the Ayurveda chart for my dosha (I think I’m mostly Pitta, with some Vata traits too, if that makes sense). I get frequent heartburn and feel irritable sometimes, which is why I thought maybe Pitta is high for me? But at the same time, my skin gets dry in winter, and I’ve been told that’s more of a Vata issue. When I look at these Ayurveda charts, they’re super detailed, showing different foods, herbs, exercises, and even what time of day to do stuff—but it’s a bit overwhelming. 😩 One chart said to avoid spicy foods for Pitta, but then I read somewhere else that ginger and turmeric are good for digestion, even though they’re kind of spicy? How do I know what part of the Ayurveda chart applies to me, especially since I seem to have a mix of doshas? Should I just follow the Pitta recommendations, or is there a way to balance both Pitta and Vata using this chart? Also, the chart mentioned different times of day for activities based on the dosha clock (like when it’s Vata time or Pitta time), and it’s confusing me even more. I usually eat dinner pretty late, around 9 PM, but the Ayurveda chart said something about eating before 7 PM to help with digestion. Is this something I really need to change if I want to feel better? I’m looking for a simple way to use an Ayurveda chart without getting lost in all the details. Can someone explain how to apply it to a mixed dosha like mine, and what’s the best way to make sense of the food recommendations? Should I trust the general advice on these Ayurveda charts, or do I need something more personalized? 🤔
