Kapha dosha

What is Kapha?

Kapha represents the earth and water in all of us. It is placid and heavy, and grounds us all. It gives form, weight, and structure to a body. It is strength.

An imbalance in Kapha can lead to excess weight. Managing one’s diet–including fasting–can help build a sturdy physique.

Ayurveda has an array of options to help balance Kapha.
