What Is Pitta? | Ayurveda Explained

Let’s talk about pitta. In Ayurveda, pitta is one of the three doshas—energetic forces of nature that make up the universe and everything in it, including us! Pitta aligns with the elements of fire and water. It governs the digestion of food, thoughts, and emotions. When it comes to personality, pitta characteristics include a keen intellect, strong metabolism, and a big appetite for adventure.

Excess pitta can cause the body, mind, and emotions to feel overheated. This type of imbalance can happen to anyone, regardless of their Ayurvedic constitution or body type. In this video, we’ll dive deeper into what pitta means, what throws pitta out of balance, and how to identify the pitta dosha in your environment, in yourself, and in others.
