While summer vacation may be one of the most enjoyable parts of the season, it can leave us feeling a bit lackluster once all the fun is over. Romping around a new city, indulging in foreign delights, and having one too many cocktails with dinner can require us to go into recovery mode once we return from our vacation.

During the summer, Pitta runs high, and if we don't shift our lifestyle to keep cool and calm, we risk Pitta becoming imbalanced and developing excess heat in our system. During this season, incorporating cooling, slow, and heavy qualities into our daily practices and routines can help maintain a balanced system. Try this Pitta season flow for a movement practice that will keep your mind and body calm all season long.

If we have a Pitta constitution or aren't living a lifestyle that honors the change of seasons, we risk Pitta imbalances, leading to a less pleasurable summer experience. Through the wisdom of Ayurveda, we have the power to keep our minds and bodies balanced all year long. Follow this guide to welcome Pitta season and stay balanced all summer long.

This month in our Herbal Series, the beautiful summer flower Hibiscus takes center stage. This gorgeous tropical bloom does more than just enhance your garden; it has a slew of amazing health benefits and is the perfect for this Pitta season.
