Ayurveda, an ancient system of healing in the world, has been practiced in India more than 5,000 years ago. The Ayurveda word means science of life, where there is a focus on harmony among the body, mind and the environment. As opposed to the modern method that usually involves treating symptoms, Ayurveda seeks to provide the causes and reestablish the balance.
The Ayurveda is mainly based on the concept of three doshas: Vata, Pitta and Kapha. These biological energies control physical / mental processes. Each person possesses a dosha mixture, which is his or her constitution or Prakriti. This knowledge of this constitution can also be used to inform the choice of diet, lifestyle, and wellness.
The Ayurvedic philosophy is based on balance. When the bodies are in harmony, the body works best. Unbalancedness on the other hand can cause uncomposure or disease. Ayurveda aims to bring about balance through individualized nutrition, routine, herbal supplements and conscious practices.
A major role is played by diet. The foods are chosen on the basis of taste, energy and the seasonal relevance. Hot food is mostly recommended to help digestion and energy.
The routine activities are termed as Dinacharya which entails oil pulling, scraping of the tongue, meditation and light exercises. The rituals will ensure consistency and preventive care.
Ayurveda focuses on prevention as opposed to cure. People make themselves more resilient to nature by sustaining the internal balance and adjusting to seasonal shifts.
