Ayurveda's Seasonal Shield: Preventing Winter Migraines

• Winter often increases migraine frequency due to cold, dry air, fluctuating pressure, and reduced sunlight, aggravating neurological sensitivity.
• Ayurveda attributes winter migraines to aggravated Vata and Kapha, causing constricted blood vessels, sinus congestion, and tridosha imbalance.
• Dietary recommendations include warm, nourishing, easily digestible foods like ghee, moong dal, and root vegetables, while avoiding raw, fried, or spicy items.
• Lifestyle adjustments like regulating sleep, reducing screen time, and early morning sunlight help stabilize hormonal rhythms and prevent migraines.
• Ayurvedic therapies such as Abhyanga, Nasyam, Shirodhara, and herbal support (ginger, ashwagandha) are suggested to address root causes and provide relief.

Why It Matters: Ayurveda offers a powerful shield against worsening winter migraines.
