BALANCE IN AYURVEDA

Ayurveda draws very much from man’s interaction with nature. It describes the 5 elemental structures into which the universe is divided; space, air, fire, water and earth. These elements combine to form 3 bio-energies or doshas known as vata, pitta and kapha.

These doshas govern all the activities of our mind and body. When we maintain balance through intelligent choices, we experience optimal health. When these doshas are in imbalance, we experience disease.

The main aim of Ayurvedic treatments is to establish balance in these three fundamental qualities.
