The system of natural healing called Ayurveda
(ayu means "life"; veda means
"knowledge of") originated in India sometime around
1500 B.C. Its basis is, the belief that humans are an integral
part of nature, governed by the principles that determine the
survival and health of all living matter - plant and animal. Its
goal is to bring humans into harmony or equilibrium with their
environment.
According to Ayurveda, each of us is born with a constitution of
varying amounts of three doshas, or forces: vata,
symbolized by air or space; pitta, by fire; and kapha,
by earth and water. These characteristics determine what you
should eat and how you should conduct your life. |
