Ayurveda for Winter
Kapha Season
Free Online Workshop
Saturday, February 18th, 2023
1-2:30 pm PST
The Kapha dosha is a combination of earth & water elements and has the inherent qualities of cold, wet, heavy, and stable. It shares the same energetics with the winter and spring months. It
The qualities of Kapha are responsible for the structure of the body, lubrication of the joints, skin and tissues and provide stability, stamina, and strength. People with a more prominent Kapha nature tend to be physically heavier and sturdy with large bones and thick and soft skin and hair. They usually move, think and speak slower and when balanced are unconditionally loving, calm, devoted, consistent, tolerant, dependable and patient. However, when out of balance, they are physically prone to upper respiratory illnesses, obesity, diabetes and high cholesterol, and mentally can procrastinate, be inflexible, lethargic, stubborn, depressed and over-attached.
Ayurveda uses the five sense therapies to treat imbalances, which include: Sight - color therapy, Hearing - mantras and chanting, Smell - aromatherapy, Taste - food, beverages, spices and herbs and Touch - massage abhyanga (massage) and gemology.
When treating Kapha imbalance we incorporate the opposite qualities of warmth, dryness, lightness and mobility. A lighter diet is suggested using warmer spices like, cloves, cinnamon and ginger with very little dairy, nuts, or added fats. Sweeteners are very tonifying and are not recommended for Kapha but if one is to be used then honey is the choice because it is heating.

As the cold, wet, heavy, and stagnate winter moves into spring, we experience a rebirth around us in nature. Our yoga practices can benefit this time of year by practicing more energetic, light, and warming postures that help cleanse and rejuvenate the body, mind, and spirit.
