Healing the Mind, Body, & Soul
Ayurveda is a Sanskrit phrase that translates to "knowledge of life." The fundamental tenet of Ayurveda is that everything in life is interconnected. Because of this, achieving balance and harmony is essential for overall heath.
A person is more susceptible to illness when they are unbalanced or under stress. The main goals of Ayurveda are to achieve equilibrium between your physical body, mind, spirit, and the environment by employing lifestyle interventions and natural treatments, therapies, and remedies.
A balanced lifestyle includes eating well, getting enough sleep, exercising frequently, and managing stress. Botanicals, physical activity, mindfulness-promoting activities, and other resources may provide further support if necessary.
Every person is different, and according to Ayurveda, each person has a unique constitution known as prakriti. These prakriti, in accordance with Ayurveda, determine your physical, psychological, behavioral, and immunological characteristics. What works for you might not work for someone else because various constitutions respond to different therapies.
You will get a personalized treatment plan developed by an Ayurvedic professional. They'll consider the harmony between all three of these factors, as well as your particular physical and emotional make-up.
Treatment is to rid your body of undigested food, which might remain there and cause illness. The "panchakarma" purification procedure aims to lessen your symptoms and bring harmony and balance back to your body.
What is your Dosha?
The combination in the human body to form the three life forces or energies, called doshas. They control how your body works. They are Vata dosha (space and air); Pitta dosha (fire and water); and Kapha dosha (water and earth).
-
Vata, the energy that governs the motion-related body processes including breathing, blinking, and heartbeat. Vata energy is creative and vibrant when it is balanced. Vata causes worry and anxiety when it is out of equilibrium.
-
Pitta. Energy that regulates the metabolic processes of the body, such as digestion, absorption, nutrition, and temperature. Pitta promotes knowledge and contentment when it is in balance. Pitta, when out of balance, can infuriate you and give you ulcers.
-
Kapha. energy that regulates the body's growth. All body components receive water from it, and it also moisturizes the skin and supports the immune system. When kapha is balanced, it manifests as forgiving and love. Inadequate kapha causes jealousy and insecurity.
