Weight Management through Ayurveda and Yoga
As we grow older, our body tends to gain more weight and it can be challenging to lose the unwanted fat. According to Ayurveda one of the main causes of unwanted stubborn fat is due to low metabolism (digestive fire or “agni”). Ayurveda distinctly draws a difference between weight loss and weight management. Weight loss is focussed on the body and has a short term effect while while weight management adopts a holistic outlook and is and ideal long term approach. Ayurveda takes a holistic view on weight loss which includes a mind-body approach.
Ayurveda, is a Traditional Indian System of Wellness which offers a comprehensive study of the effects of food and lifestyle on your weight. Ayurveda, known as the “Science of Life”, provides a holistic outlook and natural principles for balancing the mind-body complex which helps with weight maintenance.
