Free Ayurvedic Dosha Quiz: Are you Vata, Pitta or Kapha?

Take our quick and easy quiz to discover your dosha!

Ayurvedic medicine teaches us that there are three energies (the three doshas) that circulate the body: vata dosha, pitta dosha and kapha dosha. Those who practice Ayurveda believe that these energies, sometimes known as body types, are responsible for our personality characteristics and physical constitution, as well as our whole-body health.

In an ideal state every person would have all three doshas in perfect harmony – and therefore have perfect mind-body wellness – but this is rare. Most of us have one energy, or perhaps two, which outweigh the others and create an imbalance in our life. The core purpose of Ayurveda is to balance the doshas through a combination of personalised lifestyle choices, such as eating the right foods for your dosha.

So what are you waiting for? Take our free test below. Once you know your body type, don’t forget to read our complete guide to doshas, which will show you the symptoms of imbalance in your body and mind that you might be experiencing, plus recommendations and lifestyle tips for your dominant dosha.
