It's really common to feel frustrated when efforts don't seem to work, especially when it comes to gaining weight. From an Ayurvedic perspective, it sounds like there might be an imbalance in your Vata dosha, which is often linked with being underweight and experiencing low digestion strength or agni. Let's dive into how you can naturally address this with Ayurveda.
Firstly, consider your diet. Prioritize cooked, warm meals over raw, cold, or processed foods. Ayurveda suggests that heavy, grounding foods can help in gaining weight. Include ghee, milk, whole grains like brown rice or quinoa, and naturally sweet foods such as sweet potatoes and ripe fruits. Try adding healthy fats like avocado and nuts, which can be taken as snacks throughout the day. Aim to eat 4 to 5 smaller meals instead of three large ones, as this can aid in better digestion and absorption.
Next, let's look at lifestyle. Regularity in meals and sleep is essential. Try to follow a routine in your daily activities, as it aligns with balancing Vata. Relaxing exercises like yoga and gentle weight training can be beneficial, stimulating appetite and building muscle mass gradually. Ensure you're also getting adequate rest, with a bedtime before 10 PM when possible.
Herbal support can sometimes assist. Ashwagandha and Shatavari are famed in Ayurveda for building muscle mass and improving overall strength. Take these in powder or tablet form after meals, but it's best to consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner for precise dosages tailored to you.
Lastly, stress and anxiety can impact digestion, so explore stress-reducing practices such as meditation or mindfulness. This mind-body connection is often powerful enough to support your weight-gain goal.
Remember, every body is unique, and adjustments might be necessary over time. If you're encountering any symptoms like fatigue or digestive issues, considering a check with a healthcare provider or an Ayurvedic practitioner could be valuable. Patience, commitment, and natural alignment with your body's constitution are key.
