What to Eat?
Despite trying to eat healthy and make fun treats with healthy ingredients I haven't been treating my body properly. In the past few weeks I have seen myself make treat after treat, and it's changed me. No, I haven't gained weight, but I have seen a change in my body and mind. Lately I have been very critical, irritable, and very anti-social. Not to mention that I haven't been able to get to sleep in the past month before 3:30 a.m. My sleep has been harsh too, and I wake up groggy. When I finally noticed all of these changes I couldn't help but recall my college Yoga Studies course. In the course we had a unit on ayurveda. We learned what our dosha constitutions were and how to keep them in balance. I practiced for a while, but after moving around so many times I eventually found it hard to fall back into. For the next few weeks or so I am going to take all of my dietary supplications, try to go to bed at a decent hour, and especially eat foods that are beneficial to my body, not foods that will aggravate it.
