In this new series on Namaste Yoga we will return to the previously wildly popular subject of Ayurveda (episodes 45-48) with a look at how the doshas relate to the elements. For this series I will be drawing from Dr. David Frawley's books: Ayurveda Nature's Medicine and Yoga for Your Type. This is a vigorous yoga practice designed to bring balance to the solid, dense earth energy of the kapha constitution. This active practice will help to build movement and heat creating harmony for those with strong kapha constitutions. Check out Dr. Deepak Chopra's dosha quiz online if you're not sure of your dosha.
