Vata, Pitta, Kapha: Know Your Dosha in 5 Minutes

By Dr. Meera Iyer, BAMS · 10 July 2026

Your dosha decides what you should eat, how you should sleep and which herbs suit you best.

Ayurveda sees every person as a unique mix of three energies — Vata (air), Pitta (fire) and Kapha (earth & water).

Vata

Creative, quick and energetic — but prone to dryness, anxiety and irregular digestion.

Pitta

Sharp, driven and warm — but prone to acidity, anger and skin inflammation.

Kapha

Calm, steady and strong — but prone to weight gain, sluggishness and congestion.
