Kapha Dosha

Kapha Dosha is a combination of Jala (Water) and Prithvi (Earth) elements. Its role is said to be that of binding energy. It draws energy from the core elements it is made up of and acts as a lubricating force in the body. It is seated primarily in the chest and stomach cavities. Ayurveda attributes the stability of our physical body to Kapha.

Some of the common symptoms of Kabha imbalance include nausea, excess salivation, lethargy, sluggishness, drowsiness, weight gain and loss of appetite.

Those with a pre-dominance of Kapha attribute are said to possess relatively greater emotional control, higher stamina and strength, and a more sober nature. However, they are likely to develop water retention and weight gain issues in the absence of regular exercise or physical activity.
