Ayurveda Doshas: Vata \u2013 Everything okay despite the urge to move<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Vata<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Vata is the most agile (principle). Its dominance brings forth speed, instability and a many-faceted personality <\/strong>with varied interests and talents. Vata-type people are active both bodily and spiritually, are curious and have a strong need to move. The key word for this type is \u201cchangeable\u201d. Vata leads the other dosha elements. Whenever an individual moves out of balance, Vata types are the first to do so, and it causes the early stages of illness. It can resemble the other elements, causing the mistaken belief that Pitta or Kapha is the source of the problem. Vata is the king of the doshas<\/strong>; if it is balanced then all three should be balanced. It\u2019s the basis of our feeling of harmony, and so it is imperative that this dosha remains in balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Vata is a \u201cdry-cold\u201d dosha. Nourishing dishes that keep you warm through winter such as stews, casseroles and soups are the best foods to care for this dosha. Sweet, sour and salty foods are preferable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Salads, raw vegetables and ice-cold drinks are not always advisable for Vata types. They should also avoid weight-loss diets and irregular mealtimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
