🌿 What is Ayurveda?
Ayurveda, derived from the Sanskrit words Ayu (life) and Veda (knowledge), is the ancient Indian system of natural healing practiced for over 5000 years. It promotes a balanced life through harmony of body, mind, and spirit.

Core Principles of Ayurveda
Tridosha
Vata, Pitta, Kapha - the three fundamental energies
Saptadhatu
Seven body tissues that maintain structure
Trimalas
Waste products - urine, feces, sweat
Agni & Ojas
Digestive fire and essence that governs immunity
Mind-Body Constitution (Prakriti)
Ayurveda recognizes that every individual has a unique psychosomatic constitution (Prakriti), influenced by biological energies (Doshas) and mental attributes (Sattva, Rajas, Tamas). Understanding this helps guide personalized diets, therapies, and lifestyles.
Diagnostics
Ayurvedic diagnosis involves a two-fold process:
- Rogi-pareeksha – Examination of the patient’s constitution and vitality
- Roga-pareeksha – Understanding the disease from root to manifestation
