According to Ayurveda human body is made up of space, air, fire, water and earth, which are present in the cosmos and they work as three energies known as tridosha, Vata, Pitta and Kapha. Although they regulate thousands of separate functions in the mind/body system, they have three basic functions. The lifestyle and eating habits of an individual should maintain the three dosha’s in balance. An imbalance creates mental and physical disturbance in human body.

1. Vata (air + ether/space) - Movement
Vata means "That which moves things." Vata is space and air. It is the dosha that moves kapha and pitta. It governs movement such as breathing, heart pulsations and all expansion and contraction of the body from cells to joints. It is thought of as the powerful dosha as it is the life force and governs subtle energies and all biological movement.
The Aroma is warms and relaxes the body, soothing and spicy. Helps to calm and relax.

2. Pitta (fire + water) - Metabolism
