Know Your Prakriti for Better Health and Wellness

In Ayurved, your Prakriti (constitution) defines your unique physical, mental, and emotional traits. With Prakriti Parikshan, an in-depth assessment of your individual constitution, we help you uncover the ideal balance for your body’s natural energies — Vata, Pitta, and Kapha.

What is Prakriti?

In Ayurved, Prakriti refers to an individual’s inherent constitution or natural state, which is determined at the time of conception. It is a unique combination of three fundamental bio-energies or Doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. These Doshas are responsible for governing all the physiological and psychological processes in the body.

Types of Prakriti

Each type reflects a unique blend of physical, mental, and emotional characteristics. Understanding your Prakriti helps in creating a personalized approach to diet, lifestyle, and wellness, ensuring balance and harmony in your life.

Vata prakriti is dominated by space and air elements. It is described as flowing, cold, brittle, dry, light, and subtle. Those who fall under this category are mentally and physically active, creative, thin, and great thinkers. They are very dynamic and have an outgoing nature. but when there is an imbalance in the air element, they become anxious, experience mood swings, and suffer from insomnia.

Pitta Prakriti is dominated by fire and water elements. It is generally described as light, oily, and hot. The fire element dominance gives them a fiery and tenacious personality. They are highly motivated and possess leadership qualities. A vata imbalance causes an impulsive mood, inflammation, conflict issues, and excessive hunger pangs.

Kapha Prakriti is dominated by earth and water elements. It is described as soft, stable, steady, heavy, and cold. People who possess this type are calm, wise, caring, empathetic, and heavy built. They are known for keeping things at peace and balance.
Kapha imbalance causes sluggishness, slow metabolism rate, fatigue, respiratory issues, and lack of motivation.
