Ayurvedic January Shopping List
Ayurvedic February Eating: Your Shopping List
Bright, Zesty Veggies
Root vegetables are still your besties (carrots, beets, parsnips), but now’s the time to brighten things up with seasonal additions like fennel, leeks, and asparagus. These help keep Kapha’s heaviness in check while still warming and nourishing.
Leafy Greens with a Twist
Spinach, kale, and chard? Still stars of the show. Just remember: cook them lightly with warming spices like ginger or cumin to make them digestion-friendly.
Sweet, Pungent Fruits
Citrus fruits like oranges, grapefruits, and lemons are still rock stars this month. They cleanse and invigorate, giving you that fresh-start vibe even when it’s icy outside.
Light Grains for the Win
Barley, millet, and buckwheat are your February grain squad. They’re light, warming, and perfect for keeping energy steady without adding Kapha’s heaviness.
Spice It Up
This is your time to lean into pungent, warming spices—ginger, black pepper, cumin, and cinnamon. Sprinkle them on everything from roasted veggies to teas for a natural energy boost.
Ayurvedic February Life: Your Mid-Winter Recharge
Morning Rituals to Kickstart Energy: Swap that lazy snooze button for a quick self-massage (Abhyanga) with warming oils like sesame. It’ll wake you up and shake off that Kapha-induced morning sluggishness.
Get Moving: Choose active, dynamic movement like a brisk walk, vinyasa yoga, or even dancing. This helps break up Kapha’s stagnation and keeps your mood lifted.
Stay Warm and Dry: February is still cold and damp in many places, so layer up and avoid excessive exposure to moisture. Keep those socks on—cold feet aren’t doing you any favors.
Hydrate Mindfully: Warm herbal teas with a pinch of cinnamon or ginger are perfect to keep you hydrated and energized without overloading your system.
Go Light on the Dairy: Dairy can increase Kapha’s heaviness, so opt for lighter, non-dairy alternatives or use it sparingly. If you do indulge, pair it with warming spices to aid digestion.
