Get your iron & hemoglobin checked. At 31, experiencing low energy in the afternoons and lighter menstrual flow may indicate a Vata imbalance or depletion of Rasa Dhatu (the nourishing fluids and energy of the body) in Ayurveda, especially after childbirth. To rejuvenate energy and improve menstrual health, focus on a nourishing, warming diet and specific herbs. Begin your day with a glass of warm water infused with a pinch of turmeric and honey to gently stimulate digestion. Include **Ashwagandha** (2 grams daily) and **Shatavari** (2 grams daily), both well-known for restoring vitality and supporting reproductive health. These herbs help balance hormones, build strength, and are excellent tonics for women post-pregnancy. A warm glass of milk with a pinch of **saffron** and **cardamom** in the evening can support both energy levels and menstrual flow. **Regular oil massage (Abhyanga)** with warm sesame or almond oil on the body and lower abdomen also promotes circulation and helps restore Rasa Dhatu. Incorporating foods rich in iron and B vitamins, like dates, sesame seeds, spinach, and almonds, is beneficial for improving energy and blood health. Avoid overly cold or raw foods, which can aggravate Vata and weaken digestion. If symptoms persist, consulting with an Ayurvedic practitioner can help tailor a treatment plan specific to your needs.

Low energy in the afternoon and decreased menstrual flow could be related. In Ayurveda, this might point to a Vata imbalance. After childbrith, especially with two lil' ones, your body may need more grounding and nourishment to regain balance. In Ayurveda, the energy and flow are closely tied to Rasa dhatu, which is akin to your bodily fluids and blood.
First off, let's tackle that afternoon slump! You might wanna try sipping on some warm ginger tea — just steep fresh ginger slices in hot water for about 5 minutes, it can help boost your agni, or digestive fire, which, in turn, can bolster energy levels. Make sure your lunch is warm and comforting, think of foods like moong dal khichdi or rice with ghee. These can be gentle on your digestion.
Now, as for the menstrual flow, it can sometimes be improved by including more iron-rich foods in your diet, like spinach and beetroot. You could make beetroot salad or even beetroot juice, just don't overdo it if you're not used to it. Every other day should be good. Additionally, including sesame seeds can be beneficial, you could sprinkle them on salads or yogurt.
Try to incorporate some self-care too. A warm oil massage before your shower might help you, use sesame oil. It's grounding and warming, perfect for balancing Vata.
Don't forget, even 10-15 minutes of daily yoga or gentle stretches can really support your circulation and overall energy levels. Perhaps try child’s pose or legs up the wall pose.
It's important to listen to your body, especially if fatigue or low flow persists. Balancing Vata through routine and nourishing foods and practices can really make a difference. If things don’t change or worsen, you may need to consult someone just to make sure there ain't anything more serious at play. Keeping close track of your symptoms can be really valuable for any practitioner you see.
