Ayurveda is more than a mere healing system; it is a science and an art of appropriate living that helps to achieve longevity.

It can guide every individual in the proper choice of diet, living habits and exercise to restore balance in the body, mind and consciousness, thus preventing disease from gaining a foothold in the system. According to Ayurveda, every human being is a unique phenomenon of cosmic consciousness, manifested through the five basic elements-Ether, Air, Fire, Water and Earth. Vata-a combination of ether and air, pitta-a combination of fire and water, and kapha-a combination of water and earth, are called the tridosha.

These are the three humors or the three organizations of the body, which are also derived from consciousness. Each individual constitution or psycho-somatic temperament is determined by the relative proportions of these three doshas at the time of fertilization. When the embryo is formed, the constitution is determined.

There are seven basic constitutions with one or more doshas predominant according to Ayurveda. They are: vata, pitta or kapha predominant, vata-pitta, pitta- kapha or kapha-vata predominant and vata-pitta-kapha in equal balance, a rare occurrence. Every individual constitution has its own unique balance of vata, pitta and kapha (VPK) according to its own nature.
