Water and earth - or lubrication - understanding kapha holds the secret to many of our modern health concerns.
eg.
Kapha is composed of the qualities and energies of Earth and Water. It is responsible for strength, structure, lubrication, and immunity.
During a typical consultation you will come to understand the current balance of these in your physiology, as well as the build-up of any toxins (called Ama) in the body that may be blocking the proper flow of energy and intelligence of the body. Based on this assessment, natural means for rebalancing the body will be discussed.
Things that help Kapha:
- Learning about the other doshas that make up your essential nature - pitta and vata - will help you create new role models and ways of behavior.
Things that exacerbate Kapha:
- Identifying too closely to Kapha, thinking of it more as a star sign than as a symptom of imbalance.
A list of famous people that displa classic Kapha signs will come here. This is useful for identifying yourself, but also for other doshas, to find new rolemodels outside their dominant dosha.
What is your experience of being primarliy Kapha? What things have you done to help?
