Discover Your Body Type

What if the true key to your health was not counting calories, stressing over carbs, or exercising for hours each day.

What if the true key to your health was a simple as knowing your body type and how it affects your digestion.

This is the basis for the ancient Indian medicinal system known as Ayurveda. Ayurveda was developed thousands of years ago, before any of the high-tech westernized medicine was even a thought or a blip of a thought. Practitioners would look at body types and features to determine how this would affect or strengthen a person’s health. And the good news is, you can use it today!

Each person has a main body type, or Dosha (in Ayurveda), that helps determine everything from physical characteristics and personality traits to  ideal weight and health. Each Dosha has things (foods, activities, habits, etc) that can throw you out of balance or bring you into balance. Learning more about what your Dosha is and how it can bring you balance in your life can completely change how you see yourself and your body type. Check out todays video for more information!

Just remember that while these are great tools, they are not medical advice nor are they as thorough as seeing an Ayurvedic Practitioner. This is more of  way to pinpoint where you might be at right now and what is throwing you off-balance and away from health.
