Three Energies

The Three Doshas

Ayurveda views health through Vata, Pitta and Kapha — each unique, each needing balance.

🌬️

Vata

Air + space. Governs movement, creativity and flexibility. When high: anxiety, dryness and insomnia.

🔥

Pitta

Fire + water. Governs digestion, metabolism and ambition. When high: irritability, acidity and overheating.

🌿

Kapha

Earth + water. Governs structure, stability and immunity. When high: heaviness, congestion and lethargy.

Balance the Doshas

Foods, Lifestyle and Seasonal Support

Daily food and rhythm can dramatically improve balance.

🥣

Vata Diet

Warm, moist, oily, grounding foods. Think soups, stews, root vegetables, ghee and cooked grains.

🥬

Pitta Diet

Cool, calming, less spicy foods. Sweet fruits, leafy greens, cucumber, coconut and plenty of hydration.

🍲

Kapha Diet

Light, dry, warming foods. Smaller portions, plenty of spices, legumes and regular fasting windows.

🌦️

Seasonal Rhythms

Vata rises in autumn, Pitta in summer and Kapha in spring. Adjust food, sleep and exercise with the seasons.

🕉️

Prakriti vs Vikruti

Prakriti is your birth constitution; Vikruti is your current imbalance.

📿

Personalised Plan

A proper Ayurvedic plan uses your constitution, digestion, sleep, emotions and routine — not a generic list.

Seasonal Rhythms

How Doshas Change With the Seasons

The same person may need different care in summer than in winter. Ayurveda is dynamic, not static.

Autumn / Early Winter

Focus on warmth, stability and rest. Prioritise soups, ghee, regular routine and calm environments.

Summer / Hot Season

Focus on cooling, moderation and hydration. Choose lighter meals and reduce intense competition.

Spring / Late Winter

Focus on movement, stimulation and lightness. Reduce heavy food, sleep less and exercise more.

🧪

Prakriti vs Vikruti

Prakriti is your natural constitution at birth. Vikruti is the imbalance currently active. The goal is to restore your natural state of balance.

💡

Why This Matters

If you treat the wrong dosha, symptoms may improve temporarily but the root imbalance remains.
