Vata Disease - #6183
I’ve been experiencing a lot of symptoms lately that seem to fit the description of vata disease. My joints feel stiff and achy, my skin is dry, and I often have trouble sleeping at night. Could this all be related to a vata imbalance, or is it something else? From what I’ve read, vata disease is caused by an imbalance of the air and space elements in the body. Does this mean I need to completely avoid cold and dry foods? What kind of diet is recommended for someone with vata disease? I’ve also noticed that my digestion has become irregular. Some days I feel bloated, while other days I have no appetite at all. Could this be another sign of vata disease, and are there specific remedies or herbs that can help stabilize digestion? Exercise has been difficult for me lately because of the joint pain, but I don’t want to stop moving altogether. Are there gentle yoga poses or stretches that are safe for someone dealing with vata disease? Lastly, how long does it take to balance vata once it’s aggravated? Should I focus on warm, grounding foods, or are there other lifestyle changes that are just as important for managing vata disease?
