Why knowing your Dosha (Body Type) is helpful?
Ayurveda attributes the constitutional characteristics of an individual to the preponderance of certain “doshas”. Three main doshas are described, viz. vata, pitta and kapha. The combination of these doshas in each person will be different and this unique combination of doshas in a person is described as “Prakriti”. To simplify this it is the constitution of the elements within the body: Fire, Water, Earth, Air and Ether.
