In Ayurveda, the traditional medical system of India, the three doshas are physical and psychological principles that are believed to govern the body and mind. The doshas are vata, pitta, and kapha.
Kapha is one of the three doshas in Ayurveda. It is associated with the elements of earth and water and is thought to govern structure, stability, and lubrication in the body. People who are predominantly kapha tend to have a sturdy, strong build and may be more prone to gaining weight. They are generally calm, patient, and grounded, but can also be prone to lethargy and a lack of motivation.
In Ayurveda, it is believed that imbalances in the doshas can lead to physical and psychological problems. To maintain balance, Ayurvedic practitioners may recommend lifestyle and diet changes, as well as herbal remedies and other treatments.
