-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Winter increases the chances of cold, cough, throat irritation, sinus congestion and low immunity. Ayurveda explains that winter naturally increases Kapha dosha, which is responsible for mucus, heaviness and respiratory issues.
Here are simple and effective home practices, fully supported with Ayurvedic references and English translations of shlokas, to help you stay healthy.
This blog also highlights how Jagwonder Turmeric Jaggery Powder can become your daily winter wellness partner.
1️ Morning 6:00 am – 10:00 am is Kapha Period (Kapha Dosha Time)
Ayurveda states that the morning period from 6 am to 10 am is dominated by Kapha dosha, which is heavy, cool and slow. During this time, eating cold, heavy or mucus-forming foods further aggravates Kapha and causes cold, cough and congestion.
📜 Ayurveda Reference – Ashtanga Hridayam (Dinacharya Chapter)
English translation of the shloka:
“One should wake up early in the morning to maintain strength, immunity, memory, intelligence and long life.”
This reference supports the idea that morning time is sensitive for Kapha imbalance.
❌ Avoid these foods in the morning (6–10 am):
- Fruits
- Milk
- Curd
- Cheese and butter
- Milk-based cold drinks
- Sugar
✔️ If you still want to take milk in the morning
Make it Kapha-friendly by adding Jagwonder Turmeric Jaggery Powder.
Turmeric and jaggery have warming properties that help balance Kapha and support immunity.

2️ Drink Warm Water in the Morning – Helps Reduce Kapha
Warm water melts accumulated mucus, clears the throat, improves digestion and prevents morning congestion.
📜 Ayurveda Reference – Charak Samhita (Sutra Sthana)
English translation of the shloka:
“Drinking warm water helps in reducing both Kapha and Vata dosha.”
💡 Benefits of drinking warm water:
- Reduces mucus naturally
- Clears throat and nose
- Prevents cold and cough
- Improves metabolism
- Activates digestion
Start your day with one to two glasses of warm water.
3️ Drink Morning Herbal Kadha (Cinnamon, Dry Ginger, Holy Basil)
A morning herbal kadha made using cinnamon, dry ginger and holy basil (tulsi) is one of the best Ayurvedic remedies for preventing cold and cough.
📜 Ayurvedic References – Bhavprakash Nighantu
English translations of shloka meanings:
- Cinnamon: Enhances digestion and reduces Kapha and Vata.
- Dry Ginger: Hot in nature and reduces Kapha-related congestion.
- Holy Basil: Reduces respiratory issues and supports throat health.
✔️ How to make the morning kadha:
Boil for 5–7 minutes:
- 1 small piece of cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon dry ginger powder
- 5–7 holy basil leaves
For better immunity and taste, add Jagwonder Turmeric Jaggery Powder instead of sugar.
4️ Daily Exercise – Natural Heat Generator
Ayurveda recommends daily exercise to reduce Kapha, improve body heat and enhance overall immunity.
📜 Ayurveda Reference – Ashtanga Hridayam (Dinacharya Chapter)
English translation of the shloka:
“Exercise increases strength and reduces Kapha and Vata dosha.”
✔️ Recommended winter exercises:
- Brisk walking (20–30 minutes)
- Yoga and Surya-Namaskar
- Light jogging
- Stretching
- Breathing practices
Daily exercise helps keep your body warm and prevents cold, cough and respiratory discomfort.
