If you feel discomfort on empty stomach before you eat, have constipation or irregular bowel movements, irregular sleeping cycles, stretch and yawn a lot, have pain that changes location, and are cold then you are probably windy.  Do you have cracks in your tongue?? Its like being stressed and spun out.  Use warm foods, soupy and easy to digest foods.  Stay away from light and rough stuff, use some oily stuff.  Sweets and heavy things good as long as you can digest it - dont overload your system, but dont go hungry or empty..  Rest and talk with friends, and stay out of the wind. Don't get too dry.  If you are not sleeping good, take a teaspoon o fnutmeg with warm water before you go to sleep.  Sex would be a good medicine for you if you have that option, but dont go crazy, just find how to rest and relax and get a good sleep.  Don't exercise until your completely exhausted, just until you sweat..

IMMUNITY

Healthy Digestion is the Core

Whatever approach you are taking, remember the 3 steps to create a strong immunity and an adaptable system. These have been recommended by every tradition in the world for thousands of years.


1). Eat well - 50% food, 25% liquid, 25% space - this is how you should fill your stomach.
Healthy and fresh - avoid old food. Light and nourishing diet (too heavy means too much light food as well as a little heavy food) . This also means easy to digest. 


2) Deep sleep and rest - do not sleep in the daytime too much and be sure you are getting deep rejuvenating sleep - info then fix that right away.


3). Exercise and activity. Don't be extreme - just resting or just exercising or just meditating or just eating or just working or just doing art - this is extreme - do a variety of things and do not get set on doing just one thing. Even if its not your favorite thing, mixing up your activities keeps you balanced and healthy. Avoid extremes.


A healthy regime includes morning bath and oil massage, morning exercise and study . (Ayurveda and Tibetan Medicine)


Don't exercise until you are exhausted. Take a break once you break a sweat.

Eat foods tastes and spices that balance your situation in season age and activity as well as your genetic disposition.


If you are not pooping every day - fix that right away - one easy way is to take a spoonful of olive or sesame oil in the morning(or two).


Good luck. Remember if your digestion and elimination are balanced healthy and strong then everything else in your health will benefit. 


If your digestion and elimination is weak everything else you do will be limited in its effect. Don't row the boat upstream and get your digestion and elimination balanced healthy and strong!


Have confidence, self respect, and self acceptance. Unconditional love affirms unlimited potential to achieve balance and harmony with nature inside and out.


Learn nonviolent communication, authentic relating, and increase emotional intelligence so that every corner of your relations become allies, and so that any confrontation has a higher chance of leading to more connection.
