The Vata dosha is said to be made up of the air and ether elements. This means that it has qualities that are similar to these elements. Vata is very much like the wind it is light, cool, dry and mobile. In the body, those people with a Vata nature experience more of these qualities.

The Pitta dosha is said to be made up of the fire and water elements. Fire is more predominant, and those people with a Pitta nature have many of the qualities of fire within them. Pitta tends to be hot, sharp and penetrating. It is also somewhat volatile and oily.

Within the Kapha dosha there is a predominance of the water and earth elements. Like these elements, Kapha tends to be cool, moist, stable, and heavy. In the body, these qualities manifest as dense, heavy bones; lustrous, supple skin; low metabolism; and large, stocky frames.
Wife of an awesome man, an adoring mother of three wonderful boys, and a homemaker who believed that being there for the children growing up was the best investment to be made. My main goal and major priority has always been to take care of the little kingdom I was blessed with. Having said that, I would now like to share my journey into Ayurveda.
