Kapha Dosha

Ayurveda helps you to understand your type and do the things that balance your unique constitution. If you have a strong Kapha Dosha, you will recognize some of these qualities. In the end of winter and start of spring and from birth till adolescence years, we all feel these qualities more.

So raise your hand below in the comments, if you recognize yourself in the qualities of Kapha, the dosha of earth and water! I love Kapha people and actually my husband, my best friends have all Kapha qualities as they balance me, the strong Vata and Pitta person, so well!! I love their soft and sweet hugs, smiles and calm natures. Are you that person? Can I get a hug?!

We will soon dive deeper into doshas and how to balance them at the end of summer where we accumulated a lot of  fire, on my free webinar on the 14th of September: Click to sign up
