Ayurveda is the knowledge of life.
It helps you to understand what your body wants to tell you and what it really needs to be healthy and in balance.
Ayurveda - the knowledge of life
Ayurveda is a holistic healing system that originated in India around 5,000 years ago. Translated, Ayurveda means "the knowledge of life" and, as a holistic health theory, deals with all areas of life on a physical and psychological level. Ayurveda views people individually and holistically. It therefore deals with all aspects of life and makes extensive recommendations regarding nutrition, personal hygiene, lifestyle and the organisation of daily routines.
Health from an Ayurvedic perspective
In Ayurveda, health does not just mean "not being ill", but inner contentment and a strong vitality. The Ayurvedic term for health is "Svasthavritta" and means something like "the way of life that corresponds to one's own nature". So everyone can lead an all-round healthy, happy and contented life if they accept the recommendations of Ayurvedic teachings according to their constitution and live accordingly.
The three doshas Vata, Pitta and Kapha
The centrepiece of Ayurveda is the determination of constitution. Every person is born with a certain weighting of the three doshas Vata, Pitta and Kapha. This weighting determines their basic constitution and therefore the physical and mental condition of each individual.
In order to make a complete recommendation for all life situations, the physical and psychological constitution and all the skills and knowledge of a person are taken into account. External factors such as the social environment and the economic situation are also taken into account. According to Ayurveda, perfect health and the development of all abilities is only possible when body, mind and soul are in harmony.
The three Ayurveda types (doshas)
Vata type
The vata dosha is characterised by the elements air and ether. Vata types are usually very wiry and slim. They are also very enthusiastic, communicative and active people.
When they become imbalanced, they often suffer from dry skin, constipation, flatulence, musculoskeletal disorders, anxiety, nervousness, depression and self-doubt.
Pitta type
Pitta dosha is characterised by the elements fire and water. Pitta people usually have a muscular, athletic physique and are ambitious and determined people with an inner fire.
When they are imbalanced, they often suffer from hyperacidity, heartburn, inflammation, skin diseases, internal heat or diarrhoea. On an emotional level, this can lead to anger, impatience and rage.
Kapha type
Kapha dosha is characterised by the elements water and earth. Kapha people tend to have a strong and very stable physique and are very cosy, responsible and reliable people.
An imbalance is noticeable in Kapha types through water retention, obesity, listlessness, a feeling of fullness, phlegm and sluggishness.
