Why Āyurveda
Why Āyurveda
Ancient Indian Science of Life
Deriving from the Sanskrit words "Ayush", which means "life", and "Veda", which means "knowledge" means "Āyurveda Knowledge of life" is an amazingly comprehensive study of life and healing of disease ( dosha). Each soul is unique and divine and it travels from one body to another the journey is called life. Therefore when soul is within body it is divine and sacred. Body should be treated as holy temple and honored. So it depends upon you that how you want to treat your body.
Three Types of Body
Vata, Pitta & Kapha
there are mainly three types of body types— Vata, Pitta & Kapha. The doshas are described as biological energies found throughout the human body and mind. They govern the physical and mental processes and provide every living being with an individual blueprint for health and fulfillment. These doshas are derived from the five elements of nature and its related properties, wherein Vata is composed of space & air, Pitta of fire and water and Kapha of earth and water.
According to Āyurveda, If the proportion of doshas in your current state is close to your birth constitution, then you remain energetic and healthy. Any imbalance or divergence between these states can lead you to feel sick and unhealthy. In Āyurveda, vikruti is the term used to describe this imbalance or deviation away from the prakruti.
Since we are most susceptible to imbalances related to our doshas, having a deeper understand of what really constitutes them and what kind of a dosha you belong to is important.
