7 Ayurvedic tips for de-stressing your digestive system

Our digestive system is the cornerstone of all the body’s health and strength - emotional, mental, as well as physical. These are simple Ayurvedic tips to optimize your digestive system.

1. Do not eat if you do not feel hungry. Feeling hungry is your body’s way . . . . . . of letting you know that the digestive system is primed and ready to work. Eating when you are not hungry, out of boredom or habit, stresses the digestive system to start working before it is ready to do so.

2. Your digestive fire is similar to any kind of fire. Kindling and stoking it brings the flame higher. The higher the flame the more efficient the process. Have a glass of wine with your meal. Alcohol is extremely fire proving, it is like pouring gas on the fire. Another way is to cut raw ginger root into thin slices, squeeze some lime juice and dust lightly with sea salt. Eat this 10 to 15 minutes before the meal.

3. Cup your two hands together. That unit of measure correlates to the size of your stomach, and how much you should be ingesting at any meal. Optimally we should be filling the stomach as follows: one third is food, one third is liquid and the other third is space. This gives the stomach room for mixing and churning.

4. Wait two and half hours between meals and snacking. Your digestive tract needs about two and half hours to complete a digestive cycle after eating. Consuming foods faster than that stresses the digestive system to begin another cycle before it is ready.

5. Poor food combining causes toxins to build up in the digestive tract. For example, fruits are mostly water and should not be mixed with diary, grains, meat or vegetables. Fruits like strawberries and melons are “eat it alone or leave it alone” fruits. There are more rules for healthy food combining too numerous to list here.

6. Do not consume cold food or beverages. Your stomach is like a pot on the stove. You want it to be hot so it can cook and properly break down the food. Consuming something cold stresses the digestive system to energetically bring up the heat.

7. The digestive system loves soups and stews. When you mix foods and cook them together on your stovetop, that allows the foods to work out their chi or energy differences. It is better to work out that energy battle on your stovetop than in your body.

Ayurvedic tips for healthy digestion

Most of us have digestive problems at some time or the other in our lives. These days, hectic work schedules, incorrect eating habits and junk food have made the problem worse.

At times when most of us are running around trying to concentrate on work, food often takes a back seat.

It is difficult to change our working patterns; so here is a list of 5 most important things prescribed by Ayurveda to keep our digestive system in good working condition.

Ayurveda considers food as sacred and believes that the process of eating should be given the time and attention it deserves. To keep your digestion system working in an excellent condition, make sure that you follow the five basic tips prescribed by Ayurveda.

  • Make sure you always eat in a relaxed environment. Sit down and eat. Never eat while on the move, in a car or while working or watching TV. It is also advisable to have fixed meal timings. This keeps your metabolism fit and prevents acidity. It also cuts down on snacking in between meals as you do not feel the urge to eat outside your normal meal timings.
  • Drink beverages at room temperature. This will improve your digestion. If you have a pitta dosha, you may balance it with drinks made with rose water or milk with dates or fresh mango between meals.
  • Ayurveda believes that our digestive system works the best during midday. This means that you must let lunch be your heaviest meal. You should have lunch between 12 and 2 PM and dinner before 8. It is also important that you do not eat dinner after 10 PM. This is because your body would produce unwanted toxins during the night time and you would wake up feeling tired and sluggish the next day.
  • Drink mildly sweet lassi during or after a meal. This improves digestion. If you have a sluggish digestion, have some fresh ginger with a few drops of lemon juice and a few pinches of salt on it before a full meal. If you have an overactive digestion and your body produces too much heat and acid, have pomegranate chutney.
  • Regular use of triphla, an ayurvedic preparation, also promotes good intestinal health, and provides overall support for digestive function. Following these simple steps will keep the digestive system in shape and keep you feeling healthy and light throughout the day.

Homely Ayurvedic Tonics...


However, here are some recipes for simple Ayurvedic tonics that act as 'Rasayanas'. These are especially beneficial for those who are physically weak, underweight and have weak muscles. The tonics given below nourish not only the body but mind too.
  • • Eat 3 or 4 figs and drink 250ml warm milk in the morning. One or two teaspoons of honey may be added to the milk for sweetening. Soak the figs in water if they are dry. It is a very good tonic and also cures constipation and anemia.

  • • Take 2 walnuts, 4 almonds and 7 raisins. Soak them overnight in water and eat the next morning with 250ml of warm milk. Chew well. It's good to add one or two teaspoons of honey to the milk for sweetening.

  • • Take 1 part dry dates (without seeds), 2 parts dry coconut and 3 parts sugar candy. Cut/break them into small pieces and mix together. Take about 50 grams of this mixture every morning. It's specially good for the children and prevents common ailments like tonsillitis, cold, cough, indigestion and diseases relating to teeth. The dose for children is 2 teaspoons and 4-5 teaspoons for adults. Do not drink water immediately after eating this mixture.


Take equal quantity of unpeeled apples and carrots grated. This mixture should be taken on an empty stomach in the morning. Dose can be up to 200 grams. Do not eat anything for 2 hours after eating this mixture. It is very effective in reducing extra fat, specially for the women. For increasing weight the same mixture should be taken immediately after lunch. Special Ayurvedic tonic for infants:

  • • Take 1 almond and soak it in water overnight. In the morning remove the skin of almond and make a fine paste by grinding it. Mix in 1 gram of honey. Give to babies who are 4 months or older. It is a nice tonic for both mental and physical development of the child. Please note that the almond should not be bitter and the paste should be very fine.

  • • Take 25 grams black chickpeas (kala chana). Soak them in 200 ml water in the night. It is advised to eat these next morning. The water can also be taken with or without mixing a teaspoon of honey. The sprouts made from black chickpeas can also be taken. They strengthen the lungs, help reduce cholesterol and are good in cases of heart disease. Those having a weak digestion or who develop heaviness after eating this, should discontinue.

  • • Take 2-3 dry dates and soak them in water every morning. In the evening boil them in 250ml milk untill half the quantity of milk remains. Cool and add one teaspoon honey as a sweetener. Eat the dates and drink the milk. This can be taken one hour before going to bed. Do not drink water for 2 hours after taking this tonic. This tonic helps to build all the 'Dhatus', gives strength to lungs, increases blood circulation, cleans the bowels and alleviates Vata and Pitta.

Improve memory through Ayurveda and Memory Tips


Memory loss is a common problem faced by people across all age groups. Some it leads to disasters in our lives.

Here are a few memory improvement tips –

1. At the beginning, start writing down the daily goals, priority wise. And keep the paper chit with you all the time.


2. Ghee improves memory power – Shasyate Dhee smruti medha agnikaanskhinaam Ghritam. – For people seeking memory power, intelligence and digestive power, ghee is the best.


3. Ghee is a wonderful adjuvant. when herbal products to improve memory etc are advised, they should be taken with ghee,because lipid soluble herbal constituents cross blood brain barrier easily, to bring about the desired action at the level of brain. Even in normal circumstances, a little bit of ghee (say half spoon per day), included in your diet will be great. Since the quantity is less, there will not be any issues regarding lipid level increase.


4. Organize work schedule – Suppose you have to do a phone call to your friend, who is in hospital, bring vegetables from market for cooking, check the emails and also have to buy movie ticket online. Then the correct order will be calling your friend first, (it is important to get together with your ailing mates), bring vegetables from the market (it is important to have lot vegetables in your diet), then sit down to check emails, along with that you can buy the tickets. (its equally important to have relaxation you see!)


5. Pranayama for at least three minutes. It is one of the sure shot memory booster that I usually successfully prescribe to my clients!


6. Milk is another memory booster according to Ayurveda.


7. Playing memory games, sudoku, chess etc helps.


8. Regular exercise schedule also aids in proper blood circulation and energy supply to all parts of the body, so it also helps.


9. If you want to memorize an answer or a paragraph, reading it loud helps. Because, information enters your brain through your ears.


10. if you are having problem with memory, please do not curse yourself or unnecessarily do not check your memory power by trying to remember something. It hurts your self belief, creating negative energy. In case you forgot something, say to yourself – “that is ok, better luck and efforts next time” and move on positively.


11. Include fruits, fruit juices, almonds and vegetables in your diet. It gives sufficient nutrition to brain and are Satwic in nature.


12. breakfast can be a bit heavy, so also the lunch. But night dinner should be light and more with fibrous materials. Because, night, the digestive process will be slow. And may lead to indigestion. Ayurveda Says Agni – digestive power and memory are related to each other.


Sadhaka pitta is a type of pitta, which resides in brain and heart. And is related with will power, memory etc. Pitta and Agni are very closely related. So, memory and digestive pwers are linked.. according to Ayurveda.

So, proper diet plan also helps.

1. Brahmi (bacopa monneiri), Shankapushpi Clitoria ternatea), Shatavari (Asperagus racemosus) an Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) are a group of herbs having excellent anti oxidants, and immunomodulator properties. Many research studies show the role of these herbs in improving memory power.

MANOMITRAM TABLETS contains he above said combination of herbs. So, If you want a natural herbal boost to your memory, Manomitram will be best available option.

Dosage: one tablet in the morning and two tabelts at night.

After two months, one tablet in the morning and one tablet at night is beneficial.

Ayurveda Tips for Life Long Health...


Following are ten simple tips based on ancient wisdom of Ayurveda natural wellness:

  1. Drink a glass of warm to hot water (not coffee), first thing when you wake up.
  2. Get to know your Body Constitution. Each person is uniquely built with physio-psychological constitution. Based on your constitution, certain foods and activities are more suitable for you than others. To assess your body type, please subscribe to the FREE “simple secrets to good health with clean eating” mini course and you will receive an Ayurveda Test. The results of your Ayurveda Body Constitution test will define what is clean eating for you. And what does clean eating mean in Ayurvedic context- it is selecting and eating foods to suit your Physio-psychological (mind-body) to have a clean optimum digestion.
  3. Select foods according to your Body Constitution. Food is the first medicine for the body. Clean eating with right foods help prevent your body from becoming sick in the first place. As part of the FREE mini course, you will receive a list of recommended foods, ayurveda diet, for each body constitution.
  4. Make eating a ritual. Take the time to make it light and relaxed time while offering food with love to your body. Do mindful eating. Connect with your body and mind while enjoying every bite full of tasty flavors and nutrition. Disconnect from work, internet, TV, and other interruptions. Studies have shown when we are distracted with these activities while eating, you gain weight by unknowingly eating more food and/or you absorb less nutrition from your food, even if the food is full of nutrition. Allow your mind to relax and enjoy!
  5. After a meal for optimum digestion, your stomach should be half full with “solids”, one quarter full with liquid, and one quarter empty with “air”.
  6. Allow 4-5 hours in between meals. When possible eat at least one meal per day with a family or a group of friends.
  7. Drink very little water with the meals. Wait about 45 minutes and drink good amount of water. NEVER drink ICED water/drinks before, during, and right after the meals. Iced water compromises your digestive fire leading to slow or inefficient digestion.
  8. Do at least once per Week Oleation of your body as per your Body Constitution (Sesame oil for most body constitutions). Oleation is a loving application of oil all over your body with light massaging motions. Leave the oil to soak in for 25 minutes before taking a shower. This nourishes your body while slows down aging. Sesame oil should be cold pressed & can be found in grocery stores.
  9. Exercising 2-3 times a week. This is nothing new; however, I want to include this for some of us who needs extra motivation and reminders. In my gym, I regularly meet some people who can barely walk but they are there doing their thing. I call them just pure inspiration for the rest of us. Aerobics, sports, walking, yoga, weights, and other resistance exercises are all good. Choose your exercises as per your body condition and your goals.
  10. Form a daily and weekly routine! The MOST important part is- STICK to it
