Get to know your dosha

Ayurveda views life from an energetic perspective utilizing the five elements: Either, Air, Fire, Earth and Water. The attributes of these elements are applied to all aspects of life, including your health. When the elements are balanced, there is harmony and health. Imbalances can cause disruption, dis-ease and disharmony.

The three doshas are:

Vata - ether and air
Pitta - fire and water
Kapha - water and earth

Learning your dominant dosha will provide information about yourself and a basis for food and lifestyle choices that allow you to work with, instead of against, your natural energy tendencies.
