Prakriti is the basis for understanding yourself from the perspective of Ayurveda. Your prakriti is your dosha, or Ayurvedic constitution, which is determined at the time of conception. It is unchanging and is with you from the time you were conceived until the time that you leave your physical body. Your prakriti relates to your body type, your emotions, your mental state, and your behaviors. According to Ayurveda, there exist seven different prakritis that a person could potentially embody. They are: Vata, Kapha, Pitta, Vata-Kapha, Vata-Pitta, Pitta-Kapha, or an equal balance of all three – Vata-Kapha-Pitta. By determining your prakriti, you can better understand your unique strengths and weaknesses, and learn to balance them by integrating Ayurvedic solutions to help you live a healthier and more fulfilling life. The following quiz was made to help you determine where you fall upon the prakriti spectrum.
