Understanding Ayurveda

Ayurveda, which means “science of life” in Sanskrit, focuses on achieving balance within the body through natural methods. It emphasizes the interconnectedness of the body, mind, and spirit, and seeks to maintain health by preventing illness and promoting longevity. Ayurvedic treatments are personalized, taking into account an individual’s unique constitution (dosha) and imbalances.

The three primary doshas are:
  • Vata: Associated with air and space, governing movement and activity.
  • Pitta: Linked to fire and water, governing digestion and metabolism.
  • Kapha: Related to earth and water, governing structure and lubrication.
