Ayurveda is an Indian system of healing, rooted in the timeless teachings of the Vedas, an original text dated 5,000 years back and yet, Ayurveda is still the main form of medicine practiced in India today.
According to this Vedic system, each human being is a mini form of nature, especially the nature that surrounds them. Understanding our unique blueprint as the microcosm allows us to choose the parts of life that bring us into balance and ultimately keep us in good health.
The Three Doshas:
The entire human body and the world around us is made up of the five fundamental elements.
Vata: Air & Ether (Space)
Pitta: Fire & Water
Kapha: Earth & Water
“At the time of conception, the predominant doshas from the father carried through the s***m, and the doshas from the mother present in the egg, are responsible for the nature of the individual constitution (birth Prakriti). Every person has his or her own unique constitution.”
-Vasant Lad, The Art and Science of Vedic Counseling
