#vatta

Kylara Vatta returns home (okay, more like she’s summoned). She’s expects a hero’s welcome, instead her ship crashes on her home planet’s arctic like uninhabited continent. She and her team have to try and survive not to mention figure out what else is going on. Hopefully there are people (and her family) looking for them as well, but, they can’t bank just on that to survive.

So many secrets fly around this book. I also really liked the world building in the book. This does happen to be a continuation of Moon’s Vatta’s War series, but, that series definitely doesn’t necessarily have to be read to enjoy this one.

Did you know that 80% of people prefer holistic treatments like Ayurveda? This Indian healing system focuses on nurturing the body, mind, and spirit to treat the root cause of health problems. The increasing burden of health issues makes us chase quick fixes and modern medicines. In this rush, we often overlook the importance of holistic health.

Ayurveda postulates that the physical constitution uniquely differs for everybody because of the dosha balance inside them. You can work on holistic health by learning to balance these doshas. In this blog, we will explore the basic principles of Ayurveda, which are doshas, Agni, and Ama. These core ideas will be the guide in helping you know your body and keep it balanced.

Understanding Doshas in Ayurveda

According to Ayurveda, doshas are basic constituents that control the body’s functions. At birth, your body has a natural constitution influenced by your parents’ body constitution. Many external and internal stimuli impact your body’s dosha, causing changes to the balance of these doshas. The diet you take, your habits, and your lifestyle all cause deficiency or excess of doshas, culminating in various illnesses.

Types of Doshas

The three doshas are Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. They determine an individual's physical and mental characteristics.

What is Vata Dosha?

Its qualities include lightness, dryness, coldness, and mobility. It controls bodily movements, circulations, and nerve functions. An imbalanced Vata brings forth symptoms such as anxiety, dry skin, constipation, joint pains, etc.

What is Pitta Dosha?

It is characterised by heat, sharpness, and oiliness. It governs body temperature, digestion, and metabolism. If there is an imbalance, it leads to digestive problems, inflammation, heartburn, etc.

What is Kapha Dosha?

It is marked with heaviness, coldness, and stability. It is responsible for lubricating joints, boosting immunity and storing energy in the body. Imbalance of kapha results in obesity, asthma, lethargy, etc.

Prakruthi — Deha Prakruthi (Constitution)

Prakruthi refers to the unique physical and mental constitution of an individual, as defined by Ayurveda. Each individual has a unique constitution. It is formulated on the ratio of three doshas in his body, namely Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. It helps in defining physical characteristics, mental predispositions, and health as a whole.

Deha Prakruthi is the state of a person’s physical constitution, as determined by the balance of the three doshas. Therefore, an individual’s strength, energy, and health vary. With knowledge of Deha Prakruthi, lifestyle decisions such as diet and exercise can be tailored to the individual’s need for maintaining health and addressing predisposition to specific conditions.

In Ayurveda practice, Prakruthi is evaluated to understand the prevailing dosha in a person. This helps in knowing a person’s strengths, weaknesses, and susceptibility toward an imbalance.

Conclusion

Ayurveda teaches us that life is a journey of balance in which the mind, body, and spirit work in harmony. It will enable you to make choices that help maintain wellness through your dosha and Agni. Ayurveda medicines and therapies lead to better digestion, disease prevention, and long-term health. It gives you the tools to thrive by understanding the transformative forces within the body.

A harmonic balance between the three energies results in a healthy mind & body and longevity and an imbalance results in manifestation of various diseases.
