Well, having 3 doshas in equal balance is quite rare so be sure that you are answering the questions according to who you are naturally. To start, eat according to the foods that are in season and follow the <a href="http://heymonicab.com/2008/08/daily-routine/" rel="nofollow">daily routine</a>. Just doing those simple things will be of great help. Also, as you now have an awareness of Ayurveda and doshas, watch your true self unfold. While observing yourself, you might find that you are naturally only 2 doshas. I hope this helps get you started! Hi Gian,

I'm glad you found it and love it - wooo! I have to congratulate you...because it sounds like you are really getting to know yourself :) I love that you said your gut tells you you are pitta vata. Go with that!! Above all people, you know yourself best. I had someone tell me once that I had kapha and I was like, "Hell no! Are ya nuts?!" Hah! And I quickly told them all the reasons I was not. But!! Remember, we have all three doshas in all of us, so they will appear in various places. You also mentioned that you were sick, so yes if the practitioner was just gauging your symptoms...they may have been mislead. Anywhosies! Sounds like you are on the right track with things. If you want more info, check out <a href="http://heymonicab.com/2010/11/seasonal-bloom-vata/" rel="nofollow">Seasonal Bloom Vata</a> and <a href="http://heymonicab.com/2010/07/introducing-seasonal-bloom/" rel="nofollow">Seasonal Bloom Pitta</a>. There might be helpful info in her for you :) xo! YAY Mags! I’m glad you found it and love it – wooo!

I have been learning about Ayerveda for about a year now and it's been really helpful. I even went to see an Ayervedic practioner and she said I was a Pitta Kapha. However, when I started eating for Pitta Kapha, my skin got dry and I started having aches. Also I don't feel connected to Kapha at all. My mind races, I am hyper, I talk a lot.... all very vata qualities. I am also tall, have dry skin, and get anxious easily. The only thing I can think of is that I was sick the day of the consult. I had head congestion and I was very fatigued from the cold, so that may have made it seem like I had a lot of Kapha (I suppose I did that day). My gut tells me I am PItta Vata. I have a lot Pitta like heat and a big appetite. Any suggestions? I am kind of confused at this point. Thanks so much! M Hey Monica,

You could be a combo of kapha and vata. Also, we live in a very vata-imbalacing society. So it's very possible that while you are naturally a kapha, you feel like a vata or have a lot of vata tendencies. We live in a fast life and vata energy is fast! Fast + fast = faster. Many of us end up feeling like vatas (anxiety, racing mind, panic, too many irons in the fire, insomnia, etc) but we have to really evaluate to see if that's truly US or is it us being overshadowed by the nature surrounding us... Does that help!? XOXO Hey Jen!! You could be a combo of kapha and vata. Also, we live in a very vata-imbalacing society.

I love the concept of ayurveda adn would like to govern more of my food choices with it, but I have such a hard time figuring out where I fit! When I read the dosha descriptions I always feel like such a kapha, but when I take the test, I consistently get overwhelming vata results. Do you have any thoughts about that? Hey Monica!
