Stable and loving.

You’re very loving and intelligent with good memory and above all blessed with strong immunity. Your strong intellect is supported by stability which makes you the best problem solver there is. Friends, therefore, stick with you and you love to stick with friends. You have a combination of physical and emotional stamina so naturally, you are a good leader or influencer. Especially when you’ve found your mission you’re unstoppable and love to manifest and create new things. Yet you’ve to be careful that your perfectionism will not take you over because if that happens you’ll be too tough on yourself. Even though you are not always aware of it.

“When you focus you are a great learner”

Mostly, you’re a good steady sleeper, but you do need your sleep to feel alive. If you lack sleep you’ll feel unmotivated and down. Self-criticism is your default. When you focus you are a great learner, but you certainly will not learn anything without a purpose

Overall your skin is soft and well lubricated, but when you’re out of balance it becomes greasy. The same goes for your hair, it can become fat easily. With a strong appetite, you consider yourself a real ‘foodie’ in which you can overindulge quit easily. Yet unfortunately, this can damage your digestion which becomes very slow if you eat too much.

The doubt you had before starting this test is hopefully gone together with the thought that this is all nonsense..but it could also be that you need more facts for that before you’re going to believe this.

For you, it’s best to balance yourself according to the seasons. Meaning that you’ve to follow a Pitta-reducing diet and lifestyle in summer and autumn and Kapha-reducing diet in winter and spring.

Now, if this sounds like you – then there’s a lot more to discover. You can now start learning what to eat, which fruits, veggies and all other types of food go well with your mind-body type. You can even learn how the different flow of the seasons affects your mood, what you can do when you feel out of balance and know what to do when you get upset.

Due to the current circumstances, all our Introduction to Ayurveda workshops are postponed. To get you started in the world of Ayurveda, we have put together an easy to read, complete Introduction to Ayurveda. It’s available as an e-book or soft-cover.

 

Stabiel en liefdevol. Je bent erg liefdevol en intelligent, hebt een goed geheugen en bovenal gezegend met een sterke immuniteit. Je sterke intellect wordt ondersteund door stabiliteit, waardoor je de beste probleemoplosser bent die er is. Vrienden blijven daarom bij je en je houdt ervan om bij vrienden te blijven. Je hebt een combinatie van fysiek en emotioneel uithoudingsvermogen, dus je bent van nature een goede leider of beïnvloeder. Vooral als je je missie hebt gevonden, ben je niet te stoppen en hou je ervan om nieuwe dingen te manifesteren en te creëren. Toch moet je oppassen dat je perfectionisme je niet overneemt, want als dat gebeurt, zul je te streng voor jezelf zijn. Ook al ben je je er niet altijd van bewust. "Als je je concentreert, leer je goed" Meestal slaapt u goed, maar u heeft uw slaap nodig om u levend te voelen. Als u niet slaapt, voelt u zich ongemotiveerd en neerslachtig. Zelfkritiek is uw standaard. Als je je concentreert, leer je goed, maar je leert zeker niets zonder een doel Over het algemeen is je huid zacht en goed gesmeerd, maar als je uit balans bent, wordt hij vettig. Hetzelfde geldt voor je haar, het kan gemakkelijk vet worden. Met een sterke eetlust beschouw je jezelf als een echte ‘foodie’ waaraan je gemakkelijk te veel kunt genieten. Maar helaas kan dit uw spijsvertering beschadigen, die erg traag wordt als u te veel eet. De twijfel die je had voordat je aan deze test begon, is hopelijk samen met de gedachte dat dit allemaal onzin is ... maar het kan ook zijn dat je daar meer feiten voor nodig hebt voordat je dit gaat geloven. Voor jou is het het beste om jezelf af te stemmen op de seizoenen. Dit betekent dat u in de zomer en de herfst een Pitta-verminderend dieet en een levensstijl en in de winter en de lente Kapha-verminderend dieet moet volgen. Als dit klinkt zoals jij, dan valt er nog veel meer te ontdekken. U kunt nu beginnen te leren wat u moet eten, welke soorten fruit, groenten en alle andere soorten voedsel goed passen bij uw lichaamstype. Je kunt zelfs leren hoe de verschillende seizoenen van invloed zijn op je humeur, wat je kunt doen als je uit balans bent en wat je moet doen als je overstuur raakt. Door de huidige omstandigheden worden al onze Inleiding tot Ayurveda workshops uitgesteld. Om u op weg te helpen in de wereld van Ayurveda, hebben we een gemakkelijk te lezen, volledige inleiding tot Ayurveda samengesteld. Het is beschikbaar als e-book of zachte kaft.
