According to ayurveda, it’s not about reducing weight. It’s about breaking that tendency to gain weight. And in order to do that, one needs a new lifestyle altogether.
Reasons for obesity vary – it could be mental depression, and that doesn’t mean you eat a lot to fill a vacuum inside, but that you lose interest in life and do nothing.
Tamas (lethargy) increases and that leads to weight gain.
Before you start with yoga asanas, it’s important to make a commitment to yourself for at least a year and follow the prescribed steps suggested by your ayurvedic doctor.
