An Introduction to Ayurveda - The Three Doshas (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) 

My daughter is studying to become an Ayurvedic Doctor. I’ve already learned so much from her. It’s fantastic!❤️

This is by far one of the best and most comprehensive teachings on the doshas, and how to apply to everyday. Thank you Justin Robertshaw, you are an excellent teacher.

If you're reading this, I hope that day comes real soon where your wildest dreams come true. Where you finally feel that you are at peace with yourself and your surroundings. May your life be full of joy, strength, light, and ease. May you lead a life full of positivity and greatness. You got this. It's gonna get better real soon❤🙏

As someone who ordered a garden kit, then watched a video on the herbs, and during tulsi research heard “aryuvedic medicine” one time am now on the basic principles forming a rabbit hole- I think I can say I’m pitta mostly

I would like to send love to you, who reads this! You are loved as who you are! Thank you for reading! This channel is amazing!

Love it!! Ayurveda has spread from arab to Cambodia. Yoga is practiced all over the world. Hindu classical music, which originates in Sama Vedic is loved in Pakistan and Bangladesh. I'm writing in English which owes much to Sanskrit. The numeral system too originates in the glorious Vedas. I'm so impressed by Vedic philosophy that I am reverting to Vedanta. I wouldn't have discovered Vedic philosophy if it hadn't been for the internet. ❤❤❤🌹🌹

This is such a beautiful session about aayurveda..I am Hindu..and I know some basics gunas..Ras..yoga..I am vatta pitta predominat dosha person.. but kapha prakrati also in some ways as per astrology (earth sign).. here in India they don't give full information though...You have explained everything in details and examples..My knowledge is increased in more beautiful way...Thank you so much..😀💫🙏

I love the comprehensive way Justin explains and provides demonstrations of the three Doshas.

You are a wonderful teacher. What a gift to us. Thank you.

I am a complete beginner in Ayurveda but his breakdown and explanation really soaked in for me especially after reviewing it a few times. Great work, thank you!

Like the ultimate mother offering unconditional love at all times. ❤️🙏

The way he deliver message is very clear and wonderful. I wish he has make like presentation. He is knowledgeable about it. Thank you for share this video. I play it over and over again.

He llorado tanto con este audio , es como si estuviera lavando mi alma , la persona que tanto amaba se alejó de mí después de tres años de tanto amor o al menos eso pensé y sentí , y dejó un gran dolor , me sentí perdida y tan Sola que caí en una profunda depresión , encontré hoy este audio y lo estoy escuchando ahora , me siento liviana y con un profundo amor a mí misma , solo que no paro de llorar a pesar del llanto me siento tranquila es como si esa pesada loza que cargaba se hiciera a un lado para llenarme de paz . Cerré mis ojos y fui a un lugar tranquilo con mucha luz . Sé que esto no fue casualidad , estoy en el momento exacto para sanar y empezar de nuevo . Infinitas gracias , gracias , gracias .

I finally found a beautiful explanation of Ayurveda. I really didn't understand the doshas until now. Thank you so much. Really clear explained. Much love. xx

20 yars with Ayurveda ...i can sey it is the best on the best ..love from Greece

Ayurveda is an ancient science which can improve our daily routine with its natural health tips... Lots of love by Planet Ayurveda

Can't believe that there could be a explanation as this good. I was just looking at the aspect of mine, like reading autobiography of self in different standards of language. Wow, phenomenal.

What a simple narration.... excellent. All the best. Thank you such and appreciating your efforts on spreading Ayurveda..

I'm vata dominant, I'm vata/ pita and have a terrible insomnia, watching this at 2:17am, I usually sleep at 4 or 5 am,

This is the most informative and extensive dosha information I’ve found! Thank you so much!! This helps me understand things a lot more.

Wishing you all a very very happy and healthy new year!

Just listened to this, Studying Ayurveda and applying what I learn. This is super helpful! Namaste 🙏

I loved, loved, loved the way this was broken down and given the space for further individual research! Much appreciated 🙏🏾

This was a beautiful and clear explanation of Ayurveda 🙏🏾 bless you for sharing

Thank you, it's nice to come back and watch this video again. Sometimes we are too busy we tend to forget the basics.

Finally an understandable explanation of Ayurveda 🙏🏻 thank you so much - I now feel like I understand and will remember a lot of what you talked about. Great talk 🕉🙏🏻😊

Dr. K brought me here indirectly. He talked about the ayurveda constitutions in a handful of videos and that got me interested. I am approaching this from comparing and contrasting it with the BIG5/OCEAN.

Thank you for the video. Good luck in your work, good luck in money, and improving relationships. I hope that my family, friends, and acquaintances can live with peace of mind, physical and mental health, and happiness. I hope everyone will be happy to listen to the music.

So well explained! It's the first time I understand this web of information! Thank you!

This was incredible. I enjoyed every minute of his presentation. Thank you so much.

I’m so grateful to find this I’ve just learnt something new about myself and others that i can’t learn about 🙏❤🕊️

WOW! A forever practice. I love this. I can little bit tell that I am out of balance just by what he is saying. Thes stuff really gets me excited, like pitta in my stomach. I feel more grounded than I do talkative. Oh so interesting. Puzzling all this together is so fun.!

Such a beautiful and well-explained video.

Wow, awesome lecture!! Ive been into Ayurveda for more than 6-7 years and Ive never heard it explained like this!! Finally it makes sense haha... THANK YOU Justin!!!!!!

fantastic amazing lecture...loved it

Thank you for wonderful lecture! Namaste 🙏🏻

This lecture is amazing!!! I learned a lot!!! Greetings from a Vata-Pitta (50-50) person 😊

Now the light is shining and I feel that I have a much better understanding of Ayurveda and the doshas. Thank you. Would love to take a class with you. I have so many health issues that I know comes from how I eat. Gabriele

This is a phenomenal experience thank you 🙏🏾 😀

Great intro!!! I learned so much. For example: Explaining the tomatoes, raw vs. cooked, and why [cooked in sauce with cooling herbs/spices] makes it less toxic to the 'dry' vata joints (the water) and fire in pitta (cooling herbs) made so much sense! Psychic Edgar Cayce said tomato sauce was more tolerable than raw tomatoes, for one of his patients who had arthritis... and I always wondered why. I don't think Edgar knew either. But now we can rely on Ayurveda for advice on this...

This is such a wonderful recording of all the things ayurveda. 🙏👏

This was very informative, thank you.. I have much to learn about balancing this Triodoshic life.

🙏greatest explanation I had heard about Ayurveda so far

Thank you so much for this video, cannot believe this is free. Much appreciated!

Love this! Super helpful, but would be more helpful if there weren’t ads (unskippable ads which is even worse) that completely interrupt the meditation.

Great talk, it puts all of my interests into a field of study and exploration - Ayurveda (life knowledge). Up until now I've been learning about holistic health in a fragmented way, which has been useful and fascinating but to find this ancient body of knowledge that works as a life science really interests me. It adds a new dimension of depth to understanding yoga as well. I can also identify aspects from all the doshas within my temperament, but more predominantly the Pitta and wind based dosha (I've forgotten the name). I think that Aryurveda could be instrumental to understanding the areas of imbalance in my life and ways to bring about more harmony, such as living in more simplicity and relaxing more after work and at night rather then force myself to be doing something. It's a difficult affliction to live with the guilt that comes with this super ego thorn that tells me a should be more this or that "more productive" go and do things and life will be better. How do we recognise when this superego will has an idea that's better for our life or when to say "enough" I just want to meditate and be in silence for the evening or day - whichever is your situation. It happens that I work monday to friday so my mind is both driven and scattered in one time period. Am I just maturing and getting older so it's time to recognise that and learn to relax? I'll stop abruptly now as he did in his talk, and return to some peace and quiet again. Namaste

Great video, thank you for sharing.

Thank you. Had a horrible headache today.. Found this and feel so much better. Thank you! I

This was so very helpful. Thank you! ❤️

Thank you so much, I was searching for something like that! Easy to understand. Grateful 🙏

Amazing video!!! Wish I could had been here♡♡♡

It is an enjoyable task to explain consciousness in its vital permutations of tissue, personality and habits etc. Just a suggestion for the purposes of relatability and balance compassionate insight on the doshas: The examples you give of vata early in the talk reflect a very common bias toward the description of traits only in the imbalanced form. You might want to fill it in in a relatable way around what its common felt sense benefits are. These would be: a sincere and steady focus on the spirit of things vs erratic focus. The desire to converse (bring ether into form as communication symbols) in order to express broad understanding of what connects. It is changeable because the subtle energy is often experienced in the head YET is not always intellectual. They tend to interpret their spiritual insights with intellectual term in order to connect with pitta in their impatient or focused intent on outcome, results vs. connections. They are driven by the bio-electric force and are quick to be engaged and quick to be exhausted. The memory is not engaged in the body as much due to a lack of water. They are likely to be deficient in minerals to bind and retain water. They are interested in universal principles first, then they wish to penetrate depths of a topic. They resonate with psyche and do well in the communication arts, are creative for the reasons as mentioned above. They can ground their talents in intuitive roles. They can blur their eyes to the complications to get to the universals then discern what to express from there. They can learn the power of gentleness if they have enough contrast of roughness to prioritize it. There are many challenges that of course begin in the first phase of imbalance; vata but it is helpful to contextualize it in balanced reference to its counterparts particularly when combining into personnaes. For what it is worth, I appreciate the increase of interest and advocacy of this beautiful life wisdom.

this is the most sense making thing ever!!! thank you so much !!

Thankyou for sharing! 💕🌎

Very interesting. I’ve read about this topic years ago. However your explanation is understandable and life applicable. I’m looking forward to learning more. Thank you.

Are you looking at me...wow perfect description.

thank you so much sir ...... it was an enlightening experience

This was awesome. Saving to review and share. Thank you!

So beautifully explained. Lovely.

Well, it was a pleasure to listen ! Thank you.

Wow, thanks you! How neat to learn about & you presented it very well 🙏🏼

Great information , beauty fully expressed . Gracias .

Such a beautiful and well-explained video clip.

Excellent presentation! I would have paid for this. Thank you!

Thank you so much. Having had bilateral pneumonias since a newborn, I assume I am a Kapha person, but later, I got colon pbs and was thinking Vatta person. When I consulted with an Ayrvedic person in California, she thought I was a Kapha person ( judging by hair and tongue). In any event, I recognize myself in both in your video. Thanks.

Tremendously insightful. Thank you for sharing ❤

Brilliant. At last I understand. Many thankx

Nice & informative video of one of the basic principles of Ayurveda "Dosha".

Brilliant video, so helpful. It's just so crazy to me, I can relate to EVERYTHING you mentioned regarding vata!!

I was a bit confused if i was vita or pitta until you described how pitta does in yoga. I'm pitta dominant for sure. That was really funny like you've been watching me practice on my mat.

👏 great job love all what you said thank you

This was so informative. I really love your teaching style. Thank you so much!
