Herbs are medicinal and have numerous benefits, calming, digestive teasrefreshing, try to explore this universe of teas and apply them in your daily life.
3 Eat only when you are hungry
One of the main rules of Ayurvedic medicine for maintaining healthy digestion is to eat only when hungry. If you are hungry, you have the ability to digest, otherwise try to stimulate hunger with digestive herbal teas, for example.
4 Avoid having a late dinner
Eating too late can affect sleep quality. At night, our digestion is naturally slower and less efficient. Prefer light foods for dinner such as boiled vegetables or soups.
5 sleep before
Ensuring a good night’s sleep is essential for cortisol to return to baseline levels and not compromise the normal functions of our body.
6 Eat more seasonal fruit
Seasonal fruits have better nutritional value and are even tastier.
7 Eat consciously
Also known as mindful eating avoiding external stimuli such as cell phones, television, radio… enjoying the meal calmly and with awareness.

For example, soft drinks, frozen foods, sausages, artificial juices, ready sauces, any packaged food. Eliminating ultra-processed foods from your life helps prevent cardiovascular disease, cancer and obesity.
9 Avoid refined sugar
For example, if you need to sweeten coffee, tea or juice, choose unrefined sugars like brown, demerara or coconut. Or better yet, try drinking it without sugar.
10 walk more
Activities that you can do on foot, for example, instead of using the escalator or elevator.
11 Reduce your alcohol consumption
Excessive alcohol consumption can lead to weight gain, addiction, addiction, excessive dehydration, liver disease and depression.
12 Try to eat good fats
For example, avocados, flax seeds, chestnuts, olive oil. However, unsaturated ones have an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory action, improve brain health, reduce the development of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s.
Even more: good fats prevent the possibility of the onset of type 2 diabetes, give vigor to the eyesight and help in the slimming process, as they promote satiety.
13 Decrease meat consumption
We already know that the consumption of meat, especially beef and sausages, is related to the development of diseases such as cancer, high blood pressure, cholesterol alterations and diabetes. Therefore, one habit you can change to live better is to reduce your consumption.
14 Consume good dairy products
In classical texts, the consumption of dairy products is often recommended, but we must make a warning about today’s livestock exploitation industries.
Therefore, if possible and within your reach, consume well-sourced dairy products, but otherwise, prefer vegetable “milks”.
15 Explore the universe of spices
Like turmeric, cumin, black pepper, ginger, cinnamon, they are great for aiding digestion and also for flavoring food.
16 Avoid refined salt
That is, try consuming pink salt or sea salt.
17 Eat lots of vegetables
Greens are high in fiber, vitamins, minerals and help with satiety.
18 Prepare your meal
Whenever possible, prepare your own meal. And if you need to warm up, let it be in the pot and on the stove. Avoid using the microwave to maintain the life energy and potency of your food.
19 eat slowly
In order to make the most of the absorption of ingested nutrients, chewing is necessary.
20 Whenever possible, choose organic foods
Organic products are important for your diet to be balanced. In addition to not being grown with chemical components, such as pesticides, antibiotics and fertilizers, organic products offer no residue of these compounds to your body, being safer for your health.
21 Put six flavors on the plate
This is especially true for the main meal, which should ideally be lunch. The 6 flavors you must have on your plate are: sweet, bitter, astringent, salty, sour and spicy. By having a balance between these flavors, your diet will be balanced.
22 Try to wake up early
According to Ayurveda, waking up around 6 in the morning helps to maintain the body’s vital energy, to be more available and to maintain the circadian cycle to regulate the biological processes of the body.
23 Hot water upon waking
This is a habit of the daily routine of Ayurveda whereby as soon as we wake up we drink a small glass of warm water. Then, let your body and your digestion know that you are awake and will start your day. Drinking coffee on an empty stomach as soon as you wake up leads to a hangover and acidifies the body.
How to start planning for 2023
Predictions are not meant to make mistakes or affect events in your life or the collective. They serve so that you can look at your challenges and opportunities and organize your goals and objectives.
For example, you look at your dominant number for the year, analyze your potentials in 2023, and adjust the healthy habits you want to develop this year.

For this reason, we have prepared a list of forecasts that can help you in 2023:
And therefore, in front of this list, which of these habits do you already apply in your life or did you not know yet?
May 2023 arrive in good health for all of us.
