This is our last part of the Ayurvedic Doshas Series! Today we'll talk about Kapha, and about anything that I forgot to mention in the last two parts! We will circle back to a few herbs for each of the doshas. To help you with your note-taking, here they are:
Vata: Ashwagandha, Haritaki, Ginger, Fennel (and all other carminatives/digestive herbs), Cinnamon, warming, moistening herbs in general. Some hot herbs can be drying, for example Turmeric and Black Pepper, so caution here.
Pitta: Amla (part of Triphala), Cucumber and Celery juice, Neem, Aloe Vera, Shatavari, Coconut Oil for Abhyanga (full body oil massage).
Kapha: Black Pepper (warming and drying! perfect) can be taken in the morning with a teaspoon of honey. Bibitaki (part of Triphala), Ginger, Turmeric, Cloves, Ginseng (warming and stimulating, win-win), and Mustard Seed Oil for Abhyanga oil massage.
