Ayurveda (short of Ayurvedic medicine) is one of the oldest forms of healing that stems from natural products and therapy. A form of art practised for over 3000 years, Ayurveda was India’s best-kept secret.
The name is derived from “Ayu”, which means longevity and “Veda”, which means wisdom. And it involves balancing the mind, body, and soul.
The principles of Ayurvedic medicine revolve around the fact that everything in this universe is made up of energies, including humans. These energies are,
- space
- air
- fire
- water
- earth
The Ayurvedic Doshas are three types of energies made up of combinations of different universal energy.
Vata – A combination of air and space.
Kapha – A combination of earth and water.
Pitta – A combination of fire and water.
