AYURVEDA - Deepak Chopra

In the world of computers can be much more expensive to repair a faulty machine than making one without blemish. Thus, to impose a "quality at source" - that is , to make things right from the start - it is more sensible plan than just "enou gh." In the field of medicine that is also true, since prevention is less costly than treatment, both human and economic. Perfect health is not improved 50-10 p ercent of good health. It involves a complete change of perspective, making the disease and the weakness of old age unacceptable. AYURVEDA The name consists of two Sanskrit root words: Ayuso, or life, and Veda, science or knowledge. AYURVED A is usually translated as "life science", but an alternative meaning would be m ore accurate "knowledge of the life cycle." Its basic principle is that the mind exerts the deepest influence on the body, and the release of the diseased state depends on getting in touch with our perception to achieve harmony and expand i t to the whole body. In Ayurved, the physical body is the gateway to the "quantu m mechanical body" of man. The basic structure of nature is at the quantum level , well beyond the atoms and molecules. QUANTUM = basic unit of matter or energy. The quantum is 10 to 100 million times smaller than the tiniest atom. At this l evel, matter and energy are interrelated. Each quantum is made of invisible vibr ations, ghosts of energy waiting to take shape. Ayurveda explains that this is a lso true for the human body: this is first formed by intense invisible vibration s, called quantum vibrations, then coalesce into impulses of energy and matter p articles. The quantum mechanical body is the cornerstone of everything we are: t houghts, emotions, proteins, cells, organs. Anyway, any of us, the visible or in visible. Your body sends all sorts of invisible signals at the quantum level, ho ping he can lure them. We have a pulse beyond the quantum physicist and quantum heart that drives him. All organs and systems of our body have an equivalent qua ntum. The available energy at the quantum level is infinitely greater than that found in the coarser levels. The explosion of an atomic bomb, which is a giant q uantum event, is just one example. Other, more constructive, is the laser beam, which employs the same light emitted by a flashlight, but intensifying the circu it quantum vibrations, acquires sufficient energy to drill steel. In this case, does the quantum principle, which shows that the more subtle levels of nature co ntain more potential energy. We know that burning a piece of wood produces much less energy than the disintegration of their atoms via a nuclear reaction. Howev er we have ignored the creative side of that equation would be as powerful build something new at the quantum level as destroy. Just nature creates rocks, trees , stars and galaxies, but daily we are doing something potentially far more comp lex and precious that a star: the human body. Understanding this truth or not, w e are all responsible for the body in which we live. At the quantum level, any b ody part lives apart from the rest. There are no wires connecting the molecules of your arteries, and there are no visible connections between the stars of a ga laxy. However the arteries and the galaxies remain united in a perfect pattern a nd without amendments. Without this "physiology hidden" visible body could not e xist, or up to a group of molecules at random. We destroy what we build in our b odies. We are constantly forming new bodies. Why not make a healthy artery, a he althy spine, an entirely healthy? To get in touch with the quantum level within us, we need to transcend or go bey ond the constant activity that exists in our mind. Beyond this area of distracti on, there is a region that seems so quiet and empty as the quantum field between the stars. However, since this quantum field, our inner silence contains a rich promise: it is the key to the quantum mechanical body. The secret of life at th is level is that anything in your body can be changed with the glimmer of intent ion. "We can not come into the same river twice because new waters are always fl owing." Heraclitus. This is also true for our bodies. Our appearance is the same , but we as a building whose bricks are changed constantly by others. This const ant flux of change is controlled at the quantum level of the mind-body system. T o modify the print-out of the body, your printed output,€you must learn to rewri te the software of the mind. -------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------

Text of Deepak Chopra from the book "Perfect Health" - Ed Record / New Age By o bserving the man, the sages of antiquity realized that it reacts in different wa ys to different situations: food, climate, season, stress situations, etc ... Th us, the sages realized that there are three main kinds: the moods, called doshas in Sanskrit. It is very easy to see that, but we are not always aware of these differences. Traditional medicine treats all patients and diseases the same way. However, each individual responds differently to medicines, all aspects of natu re. This is very clear, for example, when you and a friend go to a restaurant, a sk for the same dish and the same drink, eat exactly the same amount, but you ma ke digestion very well and his friend nearly died of indigestion. For some peopl e take very good orange juice in the morning on an empty stomach. However, for o thers it can be highly damaging to take the same juice in the same situation, wh ich may cause acidity. Some need coffee in the morning to literally wake up one example of kapha dosha, and if a person of vata dosha drink coffee in the mornin g may feel too excited during the day. The same happens on a fall day where you see in the city center a lady coat and boots, ready for winter, walking beside a young woman wearing only shorts, shirt and flip-flop, as if the summer had not yet finished . Looking a little further, you will realize how differently people dress the same day with the same temperature and how they react differently to everything. This is clear evidence that we have different natures, we are differ ent and react differently to different situations. And that's the main point of difference between traditional medicine and Ayurveda. The types of humours, or n atures, are classified according to the predominance of one or more elements of nature in the body. Having only one dosha is very good, because it is easier to maintain balance. However, most individuals have dual doshas. But anyway, it is important to pay attention to the balance of three doshas, because when one come s into imbalance causes others to ride. Ayurveda sees the imbalance of the eleme nts of nature in the body as the immediate factor in any disease. Do not see the disease as an attack of microorganisms that live outside the body, but as a con sequence of our way of life. Combining elements (space, air, fire, water and ear th), this health system perceives and classifies three different constitutions: the individual natures. They are: Vata - air and space, Pitta - fire (or fire an d water), Kapha - water and land. However, there is always that people have only one dosha. These can be combined as follows: Vata-Pitta-Kapha Pitta Vata-Kapha Vata-Pitta-Kapha This means that w e are all composed of the five elements. However, there is always one or the oth er dominates. Are exactly those that determine the characteristics and behavior of each. The state of perfect health is total balance. But everything is in cons tant movement and action, with no balance in this life but in death. Since it is not what we die, we try to get closer to a balance. The path of Ayurveda can he lp a lot. It's easier if we think that Vata, Pitta and Kapha are forming a trian gle and each of the doshas is at the end of it. Each dosha is declining, and app roaching the center of the triangle, being always in motion. The goal is to stab ilize this triangle. So we balance these forces. While there is a very large mov ement of this triangle, the individual is more likely to have mental and psychol ogical. And with that sick. Before we learn what are the characteristics of each dosha, we discover what our body type, it means, what is the dosha that is our body. For this you must tick only one answer for each question. If you have ques tions, ask a friend, especially in the questions marked with the º º. Remember t hat any test is a means of approaching an outcome. No test is perfect. Therefore it is necessary, after taking the test, always pay attention on your body and y our needs. This test, superficial, is based on what was written by Dr. Deepak Ch opra. For you really know what your dosha, it is advisable to consult a medical practitioner of Ayurveda.

If, for example, the result gives 12 poi nts of vata, pitta and June 18, kapha, pitta is your basic constitution with ele ments of vata (vata-pitta). If the result gives five points of vata, pitta and A pril 27, kapha, your constitution is predominantly pitta. In the case of a tie b etween the three doshas, ask someone to help you doing the test for you, and rea d the characteristics of each dosha, to see which one fits best with you. Rememb er that, depending on their health and their psychological state, there may be c hanges in the results. It is therefore important to always be vigilant. The test may also vary depending on the season, from his emotional state or stage in lif e where you are, reasons which modify the quantities of each element in the body . We need some time, even years, to really understand what our body type. Theref ore, from the moment you have an idea of what dosha prevailing in its constituti on, it is important to always realize what kind of diet, exercise, practice yoga and climate are best for you. Thus, over time, you will know how to keep yourse lf in balance, and be in tune with nature. Please note if you became very doubtf ul to answer questions. If so, is a sign that you should pay more attention to y our habits and your personality. Your level of awareness must increase.€This mea ns turning off the automatic! After all, Yoga is being aware of everything all t he time. And that is why we practice Yoga all the time. Yoga is not only enter a nd leave the room as we do with the Internet, but you must live in Yoga all the time, making purification, having a more stable life and also practicing the Yam as and Niyama in day-to-day. Hari Om! Vata People with Vata has the elements air and ether (or space) in your dominant body type or constitution. These elements have the movement as a major feature.

And vata is related to the "winds" of our body such as breathing, movement, bow el movements, uterine contractions, especially the nerve impulses. Therefore vat a is present in all of our body. Usually one person is very high or very low, sm all, thin, lightweight and not very strong. Have the bones of the body protrudin g and visible, like the veins. One feature is the protruding Adam's apple, and d ry skin and need for oils and moisturizers. Has little resistance to diseases. T he appetite is variable, digestion and metabolism are irregular, with a tendency to constipation, insomnia, worry and indecision when unbalanced. These are peop le who change their minds and moods easily, are anxious and agitated. Need a job that does not require much physical exertion in a cold environment or as little dry. Should not work with something that requires constant concentration, their workplace should be warm and protected, unlike their health may suffer. It is a very enthusiastic person, spontaneous, has fast movements, is sensitive and ten d to forgive easily. Sometimes speaks more than he should, have outbursts of ene rgy and get tired quickly. His creativity is focused on the arts. Assimilate inf ormation easily and likewise tend to forget them quickly. Shy and sensitive, oft en leaves school early and return with ease of use. Vata is responsible for gett ing things and not finish. When deranged talk a lot without coming to a conclusi on, will spend much time shopping but not buying anything, and feel unsatisfied. Pre-mestruais pain and lumbar region are attributed to imbalance of vata. Major health problems that characterize imbalance in Vata: rheumatism, sciatic nerve problem, insomnia, dry lips and skin, cramps, back pain, excessive gas, bloating , irregular menstruation and cramps, varicose veins, anorexia, poor blood circul ation, weak bones, infertility, and others. An essential care to maintain the ba lance of vata is resting enough, not working or exercising too much, and pay clo se attention to keep regular daily habits. Usually when vata traveling or leave home and daily routine, you have constipation and goes askew. Are typical of vat a: Stay hungry at any time of day go to sleep at different times every night Sto p eating a meal Keeping irregular habits have good digestion one day and the oth er does not drop fast and angry emotions and then soon forget floor and have qui ck movements as vata is present throughout the body, and is responsible for nerv e impulses, is the first to come into dosha imbalance. When this happens it tend s to unbalance pitta and kapha then, like a domino effect. So if your body type is comprised of vata, pay attention to maintaining the balance of this nature, e specially in autumn when the weather is dry and cold, further aggravating vata. Pitta People of pitta is fire predominant element of nature into your body type or constitution. This element has the largest characteristic heat, inflammation. Some authors say that pitta is composed of fire and water, which makes sense be cause pitta is responsible for all the body's metabolism. Metabolism such as dig estion and breathing. Controls the absorption of water, food and air we need to survive. As your metabolism is very fast, tends to have wrinkles, gray hair and hair loss early. This is a middle ground between Vata and Kapha in the weight an d bone structure. It has great digestive power and fast metabolism, which are th e strongest features of the person with nature predominantly fire. The body is h ealthy and the muscles grow easily.

They think they know who they are and what they are d oing in their lives. Often they blame their failures on some thing or person. As the people of this nature are really good, tend to want others to be Pitta, and other natures tend to think they are pitta dosha. Watch to find out your dosha. Major health problems that characterize imbalance in Pitta: high blood pressure and heart disease, ulcers, tumors, stomach, intestines, skin problems like pimp les, hepatitis, urinary infection, herpes, heavy menstrual bleeding, ulcers, ble eding and inflammation in general . It is typical of pitta: Living in clock func tion and resent losing time Waking the night feeling thirsty and heat Leading or find that certain situations lead to learning by experience that others find it very bossy, sarcastic or critical, have a floor determined Kapha People of kapha nature has the elements of water and land prevalent in your body type or constitution. These elements have as main characteristic the density an d stability. Kapha controls the formation of tissues such as muscles, blood and skin, water retention and lubrication of the joints. These people are more robus t, strong and easy to get muscles. Usually has good resistance, immunity and vit ality, are healthy and have a long life.

A sign of imbalance is to do a lot of supermarket shopping. Usually suffer fro m rhinitis, joint problems and heart. People are by nature calm and quiet, hardl y become angry. They are safe and trust themselves, which causes them to have pr osperity. Kapha people can work hard without tiring easily. Sportsman are genera lly of biotype kapha because it has too much resistance, do not tire easily and not lose energy. They are great at maintaining public relations, command positio ns in companies are ideal for people such as they are very organized. However sh ould not work in cold and wet. They love to let others work for him and get it f or having a great persuasiveness. Its positive side is faithfulness, patience, e ducation and generosity. Your downside is the excessive materialism, possessiven ess, passivity, tendency to sleep too much and too often. Slow to acquire knowle dge, but has a great memory, are the type of people who have to study hard so th ey can learn, but when they learn not easily forget. They have a great resistanc e to disease because their body usually have much stamina. The stamina is like a soldier from the front, which recruits the antibodies to defend our body from f oreign organisms. However when there is a very high amount of stamina, it produc es an overreaction against foreign organisms, and it called allergy.€Major healt h problems that characterize imbalance in Kapha: tendency to gain weight, obesit y, bronchitis, weak digestive system, kidney stones, asthma, colds, rhinitis, be nign tumors, lung and breast cancer, fungal infections, poor circulation, and ot hers. It is typical of people of kapha: Think long before making any decision Wa king slowly, lying in bed for a long time, and need a coffee to start the day To be happy with status and giving advice to preserve this feeling of respect Feel ing emotional eating comfort others have graceful movements, bright eyes and wal k elegantly, even if overweight The importance of constitutions Like constitutions are different, different are the needs of each establishment. Different needs were observed according to nutr ition, tolerance to different temperatures, climates and seasons, as well as mor e activities are in accordance with a constitution or other Therefore to maintai n health you must deal with each type of differentiation constitution. When it c omes to sports or exercise, there are people who have much more resistance, whic h can exercise your body for much longer without enter into stress. These are ge

nerally Kapha dosha, which can perform heavy exercises like weight lifting, runn ing, dancing, etc., without losing balance. Even these do very well to maintain health, mental balance and body, because such people tend to obesity and stagnat ion. Already people of vata should perform exercises that are lighter and with l ess intensity, they tend to spend too much energy at once and end up hanging in the balance and stress. Mainly people of vata dosha should practice yoga because its asanas, stretching exercises, are lightweight and good for the body. And me diation and breathing exercises are great for the mind, which is always in motio n, indecisive and confused. Exercises such as cycling and walking along nature a re also very good for balance, not only vata, but also of pitta and kapha. What is important is to be aware and know your limits, not allowing the wishes distur b that extent. Swimming, rock climbing, jogging and action sports that are natur e, are essentially important to maintain the balance of pitta. However pitta wit h his passion for the things should take care not to exercise too much, which al so takes its balance. The ayurveda works with the balance and harmony with natur e in all aspects of life. Everything we do affects our body, our nature, and do something more or less, so it is important to maintain a balance. Nature is like a radio station, so you have to mess around with some buttons to tune it. This makes it much easier to know what type of exercise to do, food to eat and take a ctions regarding the things that happen on your side and within you. Being in tu ne everything gets easier, it's like when your body needs more melanin you have the desire to eat carrots and do not know why, but it's the carrot that will bri ng you to that of melanin. That means you end up doing what your body needs. But this is super important to be aware and conscious all the time. Meditation is a lso one of the ways to get in tune with you, your feelings and nature. The five elements, ether, air, fire, water and land, must be balanced in order to have go od health, otherwise undermines not only the body but also the mind. Air, fire a nd water are compared with the three elements that govern the Earth, sun, moon a nd the air. As these forces control the universe (macrocosm) also control our bo dy (microcosm). Imbalanced doshas If you want to know how his thoughts were yest erday, look at your body today. If you want to know how your body will be tomorr ow, look at your thoughts today. Deepak Chopra. All thoughts are directly connec ted to our body because we are composed of body and mind, but there is no separation between them, this separat ion was an unfortunate idea of Westerners, and what we want now is to remember a nd live as a whole. Therefore our body expresses the mind, but we're not used to perceive things that way. Before any disease arises, signs of imbalance appear, giving a warning that something is wrong and you should be aware. As a pat on t he door. But these signs are often ignored because we are not aware, or are so " normal" or that we realize. Things like headache, backache, menstrual cramps, ne rvousness, shakiness, irritability,€too cold or heat, etc ... Each of these sign s has to do with a particular dosha and consequently a certain imbalance. These are the signs that something is not right and you should pay more attention to y our habits, your mental state and their food. To maintain balance, and thus heal th, is very important to use purification methods such as Naul, neti, etc.. But these techniques are the easiest and surface that can be practiced. The most imp ortant is the purification of the emotions, and when I say this cleansing, I mea n not only the small daily conflicts, a raivinha for nothing, but I mean the fee lings and emotions that are installed in our subconscious and make us react in c ertain ways, repeating the same constraints. To eliminate these conditioning nee d to go deeper into meditation practices and also as antar mauna Yoganidra pract ice of forgiveness. Besides working at the Anahata chakra meditation, to really open up and clear the heart chakra. Dosha imbalance which first comes in is that which is predominant in your body. People with pitta body type should be carefu l not to increase the amount of heat inside the body, leaving to eat pepper or s un exposure for long periods for example, as a follow-pacifying diet designed fo r your dosha. Already vata people should eat more spices that stimulate your dig estion, avoid exposing yourself to cold and follow your diet. Kapha people shoul d also do more exercise, avoid moisture and follow their diet. People who have t

wo doshas should watch to see which dosha is aggravated further, and to know wha t diet to follow and which habits to practice or not. But it becomes much easier when we get in tune with nature, because when this occurs, we see clearly what kind of food makes us well or ill, what kind of habits we have or not. But befor e that happens it is necessary to refine the instruments to be able to play a so ng in harmony with nature. If you have two doshas, which will probably be first in vata imbalance. This consists of the elements air and ether, the more subtle nature and therefore those who are most vulnerable to change. Vata is considered the "wind" of the body, that moves the muscles, blood, oxygen, and is associate d with the nervous system and thus is present throughout the body. Each dosha ha s a specific location where it appears when there is imbalance and large intesti ne is where vata is located. This means that if there is an imbalance in this re gion probably will be some kind of discomfort, the kind constipation, colic or l umbar pain. But this is not a rule, there may be discomfort in other regions. Th is imbalance occurs mainly in states of pressure and stress. Pitta dosha is the second most easily comes into balance, consists of the element fire, but some sa y that pitta is composed of fire and water. This controls the body's metabolism, this mainly related to digestion and processing of food we eat, and also with t he body's temperature, sharp vision and thought. People pitta usually has the digestion and assimilation of food very quickly. Pitta is located in the small intestine. The imbalance in pitta occurs mainly in places o f high temperatures and in your food there are many preservatives and chemicals. The dosha harder to get in Kapha imbalance is therefore consists of the densest elements, which are water and earth. The elements of this nature are denser and therefore more difficult to get out of balance. Kapha dosha is associated with body structure and lubrication thereof. It is responsible for maintaining the bo dy's tissues together, form the muscle and keep the whole body and tissues lubri cated. The senses of taste and smell are governed by kapha. And this is located in the lungs. Imbalance occurs if such individuals fail to exercise and become l ethargic. This means that when vata imbalance enter into, provides an instabilit y in the body that finishes off balance pitta, kapha, and this ends up upsetting . Causing a domino effect. So if you have a vata nature should take care even mo re. It is also said that people of vata are complaints of pain, twice as many pe ople of pitta. And the complaints of pitta are two times more than those of kaph a. When Vata imbalance in vata imbalance has in this body aches, cramps, chills, shivering and very indecisive. Usually such people have no health very stable,€ and are those who fill doctors' offices. In childhood and adolescence has pain " unexplained" muscle and bone. Suffering from insomnia tend to have concerns and get nervous when unbalanced. Most sleeping pills, tranquilizers and muscle relax ants are used by people of this nature. The first signs of an imbalance of vata are generally agitation, anxiety, impatience, fatigue, indecisiveness, shakiness , sleeplessness and a myriad of thoughts with no connection. The physical signs are cold, very dry skin, lack of energy, gases, high blood pressure, cramps and back pain among others. When you enter into this imbalance can occur more than 8 0 kinds of diseases. It is important to remember that these are symptoms that of ten manifest themselves in vata, but not why can not these same symptoms occur i n another dosha. It is mainly the elderly that the vata dosha is aggravated. Pit ta imbalance in the physical health of pitta is generally very good. A face full of joy and the provision of a balanced pitta. As teenagers begin to aggravate p itta, a teenager suffering from acne you suffer from an imbalance normal. Usuall y enter into pitta imbalance when it passes the limits, work or exercise too muc h. By having a good digestion, end up abusing her, eat too much, forget about nu trition and end up unbalanced. And when this state becomes impatient, bossy, cra bby and tense. As perfectionists and extremely organized. Physical symptoms appe ar later in the form of gastritis, ulcers, heart disease and other stress-relate d problems. The suppression of feelings like anger, frustration, and resentment, as well as too much effort and be very demanding of himself, causing imbalance in pitta. Food with lots of pepper, fat and salt, is also harmful. Excessive exp osure to sun and hot and humid climate affect the health of pitta. When one or m

ore aggravating factors come together, enter into pitta imbalance causing inflammation of skin, acne, excessive hunger and thirst, bad breath, hea t wave, gastritis, malodorous, hemorrhoids, stools and yellowish urine, among ot her problems. When pitta or fire element worsens, 40 types of diseases may occur . Kapha imbalance in Kapha is the most balanced of the doshas, kapha people are from childhood calm, serene and forgive easily .. If you are kapha and these qua lities are apparent in his manner, you are in balance. And this balance tends to keep long life. Childhood is the stage where we have the most predominant kapha dosha in our body. When kapha goes askew in childhood, tends to have colds, sin usitis and runny nose. Catch a cold after another, have chest congestion, allerg y, asthma, chronic sinusitis and feel bad about the weather cold and wet is char acteristic of Kapha imbalance. As well as having allergies and an immense need f or sleep for hours. People of kapha usually like to stay in bed for hours and ar e slow to start the day. When deranged become extremely lazy, sluggish and slow. Nowadays the idea of kapha imbalance is in a very funny fat man, an insecure pe rson who can not control their weight. The attachment and possessiveness over th ings, are also signs of imbalance. These people become very quiet, closed, hopel ess and hardly has the initiative to go to the doctor because they tend to suppo rt very well the pain and discomfort. Childhood if the child has kapha imbalance will be obese, and it will follow into adulthood. Where problems related to obe sity such as diabetes and high blood pressure, will cause even more health risks . Excess wheat bread, pasta, milk, cheese, fats in general and especially sugar, aggravate the kapha. People of kapha can have a much better life if they follow the diet of its elements and do some physical activity. Other problems that cha racterize the imbalance of kapha are depression, greed, laziness, mental inertia , joint pain, high cholesterol, sore throat and other 20 kinds of diseases. It i s important to remember that any dosha may cause any disease, but these are the most common diseases in people of kapha. The influence of feeding Ayurveda teach es that each individual has the power to heal itself. This science offers to eve ryone the freedom to regain their health through the understanding of our bodies and our needs. One way to be healthy is to maintain a good diet and stabilize d aily routines. Just imagine that in a life of 70 years, spends an average of the digestive tract of an American,€2 tons of food, which is not little. People in normal health, has a digestive canal of about 9 meters, which connect the throat to the retro. The food passes through the channel without any significant effor t. However, if the power is not adequate, the ingested food will literally be fi ghting to be digested. All the things that surround you influence your body type , from the environment in which you work, through the food you eat, the book he was reading, the time you wake up and go to sleep until the season where you're living . But the way "easier" and efficient to maintain the balance of nature is through diet and small changes of habit. A poor diet and consequently to poor digestion are the main reasons for the accu mulation of toxins, called love, but bad feelings and lack of love for himself a nd also for each other is much worse than the worst eating habits. Feelings like anger, fear, jealousy, envy, hate etc ... are very harmful to health and make t he body itself produces love. And the accumulation of love leaves the body more prone to disease. Digestion is a very important role in Ayurveda, it is through her that the accumulation of substances that do not love and serve our body will be eliminated by the intestine. So ensure optimal digestion is a sensible optio n for those who want to maintain health. A routine that helps a lot for disposal of feces is drinking a glass of warm water in the morning fasting, because the warm water stimulates peristalsis. And even if unwillingly, sit for five minutes in the patent, means that after a few days of practice you begin to eliminate t he morning. This incidentally is the best time to clean the intestines and start a new day. Another option that is very helpful in cleansing the bowel is sit cu rled up like Indians in the bathrooms, the sitting position is harmful because i t makes clear the entire intestine, causing it to always on a little stool in th e intestine. And squatting is much more healthy and natural. The practice of pra

nayama in the morning, with the implementation of Kumbhaka restraint with air, i t helps in producing peristalsis and is a great option for practice to start the day. Digestion is so important that I will explain in another chapter how to pe rform certain practices of Ayurvedic medicine to increase his power. One of the procedures they should take is to start a diet for your body type. For some food s more or less amenable to each of the doshas. The principle can eat any food si nce this is healthy. But what is a healthy food? Giving a simple example we can say that milk is a healthy food, but for people of kapha is not the best food to be ingested in the form of milk yogurt can be very harmful for people of pitta, especially in the evening hours. And as this, there are many foods that can be extremely harmful if not carefully managed, especially if your dosha is unbalanc ed. However there are diets that help you peacemakers choose foods more suitable for certain meals, according to the time and season. This diet can become very difficult to follow if you do not have the insight to realize what makes it good or bad. This is where yoga comes in, it means, you are always aware. Do not eat in the "automatic" and most importantly, turn off the "automatic" digestion. It 's super important to observe the digestion to know that you do well or not, obs erve the peristaltic movements, and also observe the stool, the size, consistenc y, whether it floats or not. For from these signs you will know whether their fo od is ideal or not for your body type.
