ayurveda
A sustainable way of living and finding balance
Ayurveda is not a trend or just another diet! Ayurveda is a sustainable way of life, to live fully and in balance with nature. It flows smoothly with nature, it makes us remember our natural state and it helps us to step away from things that cause imbalance. Ayurveda is mainly a preventive medicine and health system. Most people are born in balance, in Ayurveda we get to remember that state and find our way back home.
Ayur - means life and
Veda - knowledge or science
Not only the physical health that we can see and measure with a blood test, is taken into account when examining and treating a patient holisticly. The word Ayurveda in Sanskrit indicates what we can expect from Ayurveda - it's really a manual to help us understand nature and life on all levels.
Ayurveda origniated in India about 5000 years ago.
It's a constitutional medicine, meaning that we look at the body as a whole, and each person individually. We all have different constitutions, and therefore we should be treated in different ways. Not one size fits all.

THE THREE DOSHAS
Vata, Pitta and Kapha are different energies that we, and the rest of the universe are comprised of and are built up of the five elements.
VATA - air and ethers
(ethers are subtle energies in and around us)PITTA - fire and water
KAPHA - water and earth
We all have parts of each dosha in us. Usually one or two doshas are dominating, and their qualities will show up the most. We also have tendencies towards different imbalances depending on which dosha is predominant in us.
If we know the dominant doshas, we can live in a sustainable way and prevent misalignment from happening.
The qualities of the doshas relate both to our physical body and our mental state. Different kinds of food, exercise, and lifestyles suit different doshas and bodies.
After completing the dosha test, start becoming aware of how the doshas shows up in you.
“Like attracts like and the opposite brings balance. For example, if you drink excessive amounts of water – you will get thirstier.”
Prepare for your consulation
To find out more about what works for you, it is best to arrive at your consultation with an open mind ready to explore your truth. Your personal experience is valid and should be taken into account.
Remember that the dosha self-test is only one of many tools that are used to conclude which constitution and imbalances you might have. It cannot be used for self-diagnosis. Even though most people have tendencies towards imbalances in their dominating dosha, your environment can cause an imbalance in a different area.
In the sessions, I use pulse diagnosis, observation and a questionnaire where you provide me information about your current and past state of health. Together we will then explore the root cause of what you are experiencing and find solutions that are long-lasting and sustainable.
