Blue Lotus Ayurveda - Ayurveda & Panchakarma Clinic
Ayurveda states that by understanding your individual constitution you can begin to understand how you interact with the environment and thus make choices that will lead you toward greater health and well being. Therefore, the Ayurvedic approach is very individualized, as is the path to optimal health. Your individual constitution (prakruti) is recorded at the time of conception and birth as a genetic code that manifests itself physically and mentally as disease proneness and emotional response. Your constitution is determined by vata, pitta and kapha, which are the three doshas, or psycho-physiological dynamic principles that govern all individual responses to the environment, both physically and emotionally, and promote the disease process when out of balance. Many factors, both internal and external, can disturb this balance and bring about changes in your original constitution, leading to imbalance and disease. Some of these factors are: emotional and physical stress, improper food combinations and choices, physical trauma, or seasonal and weather changes. Once you understand how these factors affect you on a constitutional level, you can take appropriate actions minimize their effects and eliminate the causes of imbalance. In this sense, Ayurveda empowers you to gain control over your state of health and well being.
