How to Eat in Spring, According to Ayurveda

We live in a time in which we have access to a global market, with foods imported from the far reaches of the planet. But does that mean we should eat blueberries from Costa Rica in February in New England, where blueberries haven’t been growing for eight months? Bananas, in a country that doesn’t harvest a single banana? Salad greens in Maine in January, when the only thing growing on the ground is snow? Ayurveda would say no. Ayurveda advises local, seasonal eating—and not because that’s the sexy new diet. Hundreds of years ago, you ate what was in season because that’s all there was. There wasn’t an option to live in Minnesota and go to the Whole Foods for avocados and jackfruit. Eating for the Kapha Time of Year Spring  is the  kapha  time of year, which means that the earth and water elements are taking over (otherwise known as mud season). I live on a dirt road that is now a mud road. Even the spring snow is heavy and wet, not light and fluffy like it was back in th...

Tips for Balancing Kapha dosha

According to Ayurveda , winter corresponds to the Vata and Kapha doshas. Vata rules as long as cold and dry weather prevails. Kapha becomes the dominant force when it becomes wetter and we advance into the spring season. For many of us, Kapha season begins in February (although this can vary depending on where you live). During this transition, Ayurveda advises us to slowly let go of the routines established in Vata season and start embracing practices that help pacify Kapha. If we don’t properly adjust, ⁠we may be at risk of accumulating too much Kapha (especially Kapha types), causing a Kapha imbalance. Physically, a Kapha imbalance  can result in colds and flus as well as congestion, allergies , lethargy, weight gain, water retention, high blood pressure , and high cholesterol . Mentally, too much Kapha can manifest as depression , lethargy, stubbornness, greediness, and unwillingness to change, forgive or let go. Fortunately, Ayurveda provides seasonal guidelines known as R...
