Q – How can yoga help regulate blood sugar and metabolism after holiday indulgence?

– C. Kafulla, Miami

A: After a season of sweets and celebrations, many of us feel sluggish or unbalanced. Yoga provides a kind, steady way to reset. Gentle Hatha sequences stimulate digestion and detoxification, especially when paired with mindful eating and hydration. Slow Surya Namaskar (Sun Salutations) awakens metabolism, while Pavanamuktasana (Wind- Relieving Pose) and Ardha Matsyendrasana (Half Spinal Twist) activate the abdominal organs and aid in nutrient absorption.

Add energising pranayama like Kapalabhati (Skull-Shining Breath) and Anulom Vilom to boost oxygenation and circulation. Complement these with warming herbs such as cinnamon, turmeric, or ginger for gentle metabolic support. Above all, approach this reset with self-compassion rather than guilt. The body thrives on kindness — not punishment. Let yoga be your reminder that balance returns not through restriction, but through awareness and consistent care.
