The wars, the fires, the gun violence. The world is dealing with a major Pitta (fire) imbalance. The inflammation within us has created inflammation in society. As is the macrocosm, so is the microcosm. What is going on in the global sphere is a reflection of what is happening in the internal sphere. The anger, duality and aggression within ourselves has manifested into those Pitta qualities in the global compass. And that means we can do something about it. Ask yourself: 1. Where am I still holding onto anger? 2. How am I judging others? 3. How can I show more patience? 4. Who do I need to forgive? 5. How can I be more of service? . Focus on eating cooling foods, particularly leafy greens + coconuts. We must all stay away from spicy food, coffee and excess garlic, all which trigger a Pitta imbalance (I share over 100+ things you SHOULD eat instead in my new book #EatFeelFresh and my book The Idiots Guide to Ayurveda has over 300 pages on how to balance your Dosha ) When you heal yourself, you heal the planet. This is the biggest act of activism you can commit. Let's reduce the fires, in ourselves, in our communities, in our societies. And let the world come back into balance again.
