Vata
The principle of movement — breath, circulation, nerve impulse, and the rhythm of the day.
Understanding Ayurveda
Ayurveda begins with the individual rather than the illness — how you digest, sleep, work and think, and what your constitution asks for.

Two people with the same complaint may need two different approaches, because their constitution (Prakriti), digestion, work and temperament differ. Ayurveda begins by understanding that difference.
An Ayurvedic plan therefore looks at routine, food, rest and state of mind alongside herbal support and therapy. The aim is a balance that holds, rather than relief that fades.
