Ayurveda

Ayurveda states that human body comprises 5 elements: earth, water, fire, air, and space. These five significant elements form the three doshas in various combinations (Vata, pitta, and Kapha). It is the imbalance of these doshas that make a person ill. Ayurveda believes the human body is fully capable of healing itself if there are no toxins present. This board contains 5 elements, 3 doshas, 3 pillars of health, 7 dhatus, several detoxifying methods, panchakarma, and its preliminary precises.

Most of us break the day into work time, our time, and sleep time, with work time generally allotted the most number of hours. Ayurveda sees the day differently, breaking it into six four-hour zones—one day zone and one night zone for each of the three doshas. To live a balanced life and enjoy the good health it brings we need to keep our daily rhythms set to the age-old ayurvedic clock. #ayurveda #vata #pitta #kapha
