There Ayurveda


Ayurveda is considered the “mother of all healing arts”.

Sanskrit quote:

*"HITAHITAM SUKHAM DUKHAM AYUSTASYA HITAHITAM

MANAM CA TAT CA YATROKTAM UCYATE SA AYURVEDAH“

(CARAKA SAMHITA, SUTRASTHANA I.41)

 

Good and bad life;

happy and unhappy life;

that which is beneficial or detrimental to life;

the measure of life and its components;

and life itself - where all this is explained,

this is called Ayurveda.




The science of

long, healthy and happy lives.


Ayurveda, traditional Indian medicine, is usually understood as the science of life,

by translating ayuh as life and veda as science.

 

Ayurveda is the oldest medical science that has come down to us. It comes from ancient Indian civilization and was first written down around 5,000 years ago. The worldwide spread of Ayurvedic science came largely through the Buddhist missionaries. These imparted knowledge of Ayurvedic medicine and the entire Indian culture to the cultural nations of the time, such as the Roman Empire, Greece and China.

 

Ayurveda has accompanied me and my family for over 20 years.

Starting with training as a nutrition and health advisor through to the unique massages and treatments.

Short introduction to the constitutional theory of Ayurveda

 

The Vata type

People with a dominant Vata dosha are usually very slim, wiry and creative. Vata types think and speak quickly.

Vata translates as air and can be equated with the nervous system, breathing, blood circulation and the entire energy potential in our body. In addition to their quick comprehension, strong enthusiasm and tireless desire to create, Vata types also tend to have nervousness, sleep disorders, circulatory problems, poor concentration, dry skin and internal stress.

External factors such as cold, windy weather, constant noise, lack of sleep, travel and food additives such as emulsifiers and preservatives can also lead to Vata-related problems.

 

The Pitta type


is considered powerful, energetic and passionate. These people are decisive, intelligent, strong-willed and prone to emotional outbursts.

Pitta means bile and corresponds to the elements fire and a small amount of water. Pitta has its physical counterpart primarily in the digestive and enzyme systems as well as the entire implementation power of the metabolism.

Pitta types often resemble the image of a small volcano: they are fiery and hot, full of enthusiasm and bubbling life energy. But this high tension can also easily erupt into outbursts of anger or cynical criticism. People with a large proportion of Pitta are usually very successful in their careers or competitive sports and enjoy taking on responsible positions in society.

 

The Kapha type


Kapha types are very stable, caring, loving and security conscious people. Their constitution is tenacious, often a bit slow and they tend to suffer from problems such as obesity, inflexibility, internal phlegm as well as inflammation and mucus in the frontal sinus and lung area.

Translated, Kapha means mucus. It corresponds to the elements earth and water and is represented in the body by the lymphatic and immune systems and the bone structure.

Kapha people love daily sensual pleasures and like to react to stress, anger or inner conflicts by snacking excessively.
