Ayurvedic pregnancy rOutine

As an Ayurvedic doctor, I'm constantly inspired by expecting mothers. They are some of the most dedicated patients I see. Why? Because they're not just taking care of themselves - they're nurturing a tiny miracle within them! This powerful motivation makes them incredibly receptive to healthy changes in diet and lifestyle through MUMRISE. 

We understand that our busy lives can make it tough to make big changes to our diet and lifestyle. However, there are simple practices that you can follow to nourish yourself physically & mentally and support the needs of your growing baby.

1. Start your day with a glass of normal or warm water to flush toxins and promote healthy digestion for you and your baby. 

2. Recharge your body in the morning with dry fruits such as black raisins, 4 almonds, walnuts, and cashews for sustained energy. 

3. Practice breathing exercises or Pranayama for 10 minutes to calm your mind.

4. Go for a light walk for 20 minutes. Walk at a slow to moderate speed, take breaks every 5 minutes, and remember to stay hydrated.

5. Eat a nutritious homemade breakfast like vegetable dalia, upma, rice vermicelli, or poha. 

6. To uplift your spirit and educate your little one in the womb, listen to inspirational stories or audiobooks while cooking, working, or commuting to your workplace.

7. Have a wholesome lunch with cooked vegetables, dal, buttermilk, a small serving of salads, chapati, and rice.

8. After lunch, take a short nap of 30 minutes. Enhance your relaxation experience by playing soothing classical Ragas like Raga Yaman. 

9. Eat dinner by 8:30 pm to aid digestion.

10. After dinner, rest for 20 minutes and take a 10-minute slow walk.

11. Before bed, massage your feet with cow's ghee or sesame oil to promote relaxation and sleep 

12. Go to bed early by 11 pm.
