what is virya - #24620
I am trying to understand something that’s really been on my mind lately, which is what is virya. I was chatting with a friend who swears by Ayurvedic practices, and she mentioned it while talking about herbal remedies. I’ve had a few health issues, like sluggish digestion and feeling kinda low on energy all the time! She kept mentioning how understanding virya could help me pick the right herbs for boosting my energy and digestion, but honestly, I got kinda lost! I did some research but still feel confused, like, is virya just about potency, or is there more to it? Some sources say it relates to the energy of the substance, which sounds crucial. I mean, if I’m gonna take something to feel better, I’d like to know it’s the right fit for me, you know? Does anyone know how to really determine, like, what is virya in relation to specific herbs? Would love to hear your thoughts, especially if you’ve applied it in your own health journeys. Thanks!
