What is your Ayurvedic type?
The Vata Type

The Vata Type
  • Vata types tend to be fast, wiry and creative types.
  • The Vata's primary organ is the colon.
  • You need routine in your life to ground your moving energy.
  • Travel, especially air travel, can imbalance a Vata.
  • Vatas are aggravated by cold, frozen or dried foods.
In order to be balanced, you need to eat foods that warm you, avoiding extreme cold, raw and frozen foods. Moist rather than dry foods are also recommended.

Maintaining a regular routine is important.
