Your Complete Post-Diwali Plan
Morning Routine
Have one detox water recipe. Do 15-minute yoga or breathing exercises. Breakfast can be taken after 30 minutes.
All Day Long
Drink 2.5-3 liters of water daily. Replace tea and coffee with detox water. Sipping and not guzzling is also critical.
Foods That Help
Eat green spinach, kale and other greens; they will clean your digestion. Stick to light meals like khichdi or dal soup or steamed vegetables.
Foods to Skip
Avoid fried and processed foods for some days. Limit your dairy intake during deep detox. Give your stomach a little rest.
Mistakes You Should Avoid
Don't starve yourself: Detox water helps your diet, but it doesn't replace meals. Eat healthy food along with it.
Know your body type: What works for one person may not work for you. Ayurveda says everyone needs different care.
Stay active: Exercise for 30 minutes daily. It helps your body remove toxins through sweat and improves circulation.
Listen to your body: If you feel dizzy or sick, stop and talk to a doctor.
