Prakriti: Your Ayurvedic Genetic Blueprint
Prakriti is your unique constitutional baseline, determined at the moment of conception by the dominant Doshas of your parents and the season. It never changes throughout your lifetime.
Understanding Your Primary Prakriti
There are seven constitutional combinations in classical Ayurveda. While dual-dosha types (like Vata-Pitta or Pitta-Kapha) are most common, understanding the pure baseline archetypes helps you identify what your body needs to stay in balance.
Vata Prakriti
Naturally slender frame, prominent joints, dry skin, light sleep, and quick creative thinking. Craves warm weather, warm soups, and grounding routines.
Pitta Prakriti
Medium athletic build, warm reddish complexion, strong appetite, sharp intellect, and focused drive. Prone to overheating and thrives in cool environments.
Kapha Prakriti
Sturdy, solid bone structure, thick lustrous hair, large calm eyes, steady stamina, and loving nature. Resistant to disease but prone to weight gain and sluggishness.
