Dosha

In traditional Ayurvedic medicine, doshas are foundational energy types that govern physiological and psychological functions in the body. There are three primary doshas: Vata (air and space), Pitta (fire and water), and Kapha (earth and water). Each person has a unique combination of these doshas, influencing their body type, personality, and health tendencies. Balancing the doshas through diet, lifestyle, and therapies aims to promote overall well-being and prevent illness. Think of doshas as dynamic systems that reflect your body's natural constitution and state of balance.
