What is Ayurveda?
Ayurveda, a branch of Vedic science that originated in India over 5,000 years ago, literally means “the science of life” (ayur = life, veda = knowledge).
As one of the world’s oldest living systems of wellness, Ayurveda teaches that true health comes from balance in body, mind, and spirit. Central to this wisdom are the three doshas: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. These energies shape our constitution, influencing how we look, feel, and show up in the world.
By understanding your dosha, you gain a personalized roadmap to harmony, vitality, and radiant skin.
Pitta Dosha
- Nature: Focused, ambitious, naturally driven.
- Balance Tips: Cooling foods, calming practices, and downtime in nature.
- Skin: Clear and radiant, but prone to sensitivity, redness, and breakouts. Benefits from soothing, cooling care.
Kapha Dosha
- Nature: Steady, nurturing, resilient.
- Balance Tips: Stimulating movement and lighter, spiced foods to keep energy flowing.
- Skin: Oily, thick, and congestion-prone. Thrives on cleansing, exfoliation, and circulation-boosting rituals.
Vata Dosha
- Nature: Creative, spontaneous, full of ideas.
- Balance Tips: Grounding routines, warm nourishing meals, restorative rest.
- Skin: Dry, delicate, and prone to fine lines. Needs rich, oil-based hydration for softness and elasticity.
