The Kapha Mind
Hello, earth mama.
Are you nurturing, laid-back, and dependable?
Do you love to chill and lounge all day, but sometimes have trouble motivating yourself to get up a go?
Would friends describe you as sentimental or nostalgic? Happy tears...sad tears...all the tears!
If so, you might have a Kapha mind.
The earth element makes Kaphas stable and steady. I like to call them the "earth mamas' of all the doshas: trusty and loving, with compassionate, open hearts.
in balance kapha is:
Patient and accepting
Loving and open-hearted
Nurturing and a natural caretaker
Dependable and un-impulsive
Steady and down-to-earth
Out of Balance, Kapha becomes:
Stubborn
Unmotivated
Have depressive tendencies
Be slow to learn, resistant to change
Have a foggy mind
Nostalgic or “stuck in the past”
Prone to over-attachment, greed, or hoarding
life events and behaviors that can throw Kapha out of balance include:
Sedentary lifestyle and lack of exercise
Too much sleep, or sleeping late into the morning
Cold, damp weather
Eating dairy, sweets, or highly processed foods
Excess alcohol or other sedatives
Being uninspired, getting “stuck in a rut” at work or in a relationship
natural strategies to feel your light-and-bright kapha self again include:
Meditations, mantras, and herbs to increase energy and re-inspire productive action!
Daily self-care and the best Kapha-balancing essential oils like eucalyptus, peppermint, and lemongrass.
Living in alignment with your dosha is like unlocking your unique health code.
