What is Ayurveda? … please read previous posts regarding What is Ayurveda. 😊❤

🌿 In the last post about What is Ayurveda, we finished discussing how everything is made up of the 5 elements which is: earth, water, fire, air, and ether. This is the basis of life of the entire universe (the macrocosm), and our bodies (the microcosm). These elements exist in the human body, and their properties help us determine the imbalances within the body. 

🌿 Moving forward, the 5 elements combine in pairs to form 3 interactions called doshas. Doshas are each of the 3 energies that are constantly moving and changing within the body, and regulate physiological activity. Doshas are found only in life form, (comparable to what is found in organic chemistry), and their energies are what makes life happen. 

🌿 Moreover, the 5 elements combine to create the 3 doshas which is Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. 

🌿Vata is made up of Air, and Ether elements

🌿Pitta is made up of Fire, and Water elements

🌿Kapha is made up of Water and Earth elements
