Ayurveda and emotions, define your cravings and tastes
Through Ayurvedic understanding, you can begin to explore the relationship between personality and food, and then use food to mellow emotions which are too intense.
The fact of the matter is that food, after digestion, becomes blood. Then the blood feeds your whole body, and all of your organs. The blood feeds your nerves and brain, so small changes in blood chemistry have a powerful effect on your mood. It happens that nerve tissue is one of the more sensitive tissues in the body. So any time blood chemistry changes, your whole nervous system changes. As much as food becomes blood, and feeds your organs, it changes who you are and how you feel. You are what you eat; your brain, your heart and your whole nervous system and all of your emotions are affected by the food that you have eaten.
Ayurveda is the art of choosing food according to the experiences and feelings you want to have - to improve physical, emotional, and spiritual balance. Ayurveda offers a vast comprehensive means to explore the way in which food affects you emotionally.
Cravings are the emotions of your body. When you crave a particular taste, it corresponds to an emotion you are having. By eating the food, you are not only satisfying your body, but you are also providing emotional relief as well.
Sugar cravings might be due as much to your emotions as they are to your tongue. Tastes aren’t simply biological. The body and mind are connected.
People have their five senses to use as a
guide. Like the ancient Ayurvedic sages, you can use your five sense organs to learn about your body. This workshop will outline how to use your senses to understand your relationship to food. The keystone to a good relationship with food is an exploration of how your body experiences food, both the eating of food and its effects on your body afterwards. Chili peppers make you sweat. Lemonade is refreshing. A hearty soup warms you up on a cold day. In Ayurveda, the different experiences you have with each food are the actual medicinal effects used to create your healing. In addition to your experiences of food, you will also explore the many varieties, nuances, and origins of hunger. Instead of battling your food cravings, you will delve into them with curiosity, wonder, and a sense of adventure. Through this process of self-examination you will learn how emotions, your body, and hunger are inextricably linked, and how you can manage some of the deep forces within that drive your decisions and behavior around food.
