10 natural ways to balance your 3 doshas: Vata, Pitta and Kapha

Welcome to a transformative journey towards holistic well-being!

In the quest for a balanced and harmonious life, understanding and aligning the three doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—play a pivotal role.

This blog is your guide to exploring 10 natural and motivational ways to achieve a balance in vata, pitta, and kapha. From ancient wisdom to modern practices, discover the keys to restoring balance.  If you have an imbalance of these 3 doshas, you’ll have a low immunity and will suffer from many health problems.

The following are the 10 ways to balance Vata, Pitta, and Kapha: 

1. Don't drink water starting from 1 hr before the meal, during the meal, and for up to 1 hr after finishing it.

If you drink at those times, it will destroy your stomach’s gastric fire and the food will not digest properly.

2. Drink water sip by sip

Don’t gulp it but take it patiently so that every sip can stay in your mouth for a while.

3. Chew each bite of your meal as many times as you have teeth

This means, don’t let your intestine do the work of your teeth. If you chew less, it will overload the intestine’s work and will create issues in the intestine. Chew every bite until it gets crushed properly and mixed with your saliva. This way it’ll get inside easily and will digest properly.

4. Consume your meal while seated directly on the ground

Because the earth’s gravity is centralized on the navel and so the navel and stomach get charged and so more gastric fire. Never have a meal while standing. Don’t follow the crowd but use logic and science. This will help you lose weight quickly.

5. Cooking in a sealed container is to be strictly avoided in Ayurveda

Your food must have a contact with air and sunlight while it’s being cooked. If it cannot be in direct sunlight then at least should be touched with air.

6. Don't drink cold water ever

You’ll suffer from indigestion, increased kapha dosha, difficulty in losing weight, skin issues and many more. Drink warm or hot water only. Only during 2 months of peak summer, drink water of earthen pot(matka).

7. Consume 1-4 glasses of hot water in the morning

Start with 1 glass and then gradually take it up to 4 glasses. Don’t gargle or brush as the first thing once you get up in the morning. Drink hot water so that you can take all of your morning saliva inside.

8. Rest for around half an hour after having lunch and after dinner no rest for the next 2 hours

 BP gets high in the noon naturally. So, a rest of half an hour is a must.

 BP gets low in the evening, so an activity for the next 2 hours post-dinner is advised.

9. Don't eat things that are opposite to each

Like milk with curd, citrus fruits with milk, urad daal (Black gram pulses) with curd, onion with milk, salt with curd, etc. The only sour item that is allowed with milk is amla(gooseberry).

10. Have a teaspoon of Triphala with hot water or milk

  • It will help you get your body toxins out.
  • Boost your immunity.
  • Balance your Vata, Pitta, and Kapha.
  • Help you stay young.
