Vata spends energy. Pitta manages it. Kapha stores it. Dosha predicts the symptoms and diseases you are vulnerable to and gives you the means to restore balance.

“This is a tremendously generous website, thank you. I bought my recipes, my body map, and personal ayurvedic chart. Just a sample question I have is, for my current state I am to avoid sesame seeds yet there is a sesame seed recipe. Very aggravating spices: black pepper, thyme, sea salt, and many other spices that are included in my personal recipes. Do these recipes have something in them that buffers the very aggravating ones? Thank you so much! Amazing information on this website.”
