According to Ayurvedic philosophy, everyone is born with a unique constitution known as Prakruti. The Prakruti is a unique combination of physical and psychological traits that determine how each individual works. It is established from conception.
Each person’s unique Prakruti, or constitution, is made up of three qualities known as Doshas.
Ayurvedic ideology holds that the 5 natural elements of nature come together to form the 3 doshas, each of which has a distinct influence on body processes -
The unique constituent with which you’re born is your natural state of body and mind. An individual's fundamental prakruti remains constant throughout their lives.
However, internal, external, and environmental variables like day and night, seasonal changes, nutrition, lifestyle choices, and more have an impact on one's prakruti that results in ailments, diseases and other visible symptoms.
The doshas are biological energies that may be found throughout the human body and mind. They regulate bodily and mental functions and give each living creature a unique blueprint for health, happiness and fulfilment.
Ayurveda, therefore, emphasizes sickness prevention and advocates sustaining health by adhering to daily and seasonal routines that help you regain the balanced constituent with which you were born.
Therefore, like all holistic health systems, Ayurveda focuses on the unshakable connections between the body, mind, and spirit. However, as you can see, Ayurveda's connectedness extends far beyond the individual, reaching into the universal.
