AYURVEDA HEALTH TIPS

TIPS FOR BALANCING PITTA




  • Favor foods that are bitter, sweet, astringent, cool, heavy and liquid.

  • Keep inside temperatures on the cool side.


  • Avoid or minimize stressful deadline-oriented activities.


  • Seek out pleasing natural environments (sunsets, lakes) and the tonic of laughter.
