Prakriti is your personality, is your body type.
Actually, in Ayurveda, the mono type are three.
Vata type, pitta type, kapha type, mono.
Dual vata, pitta, pitta, kapha, kapha, vata.
And triple, there are many.
So there is what we decided through the pulse examination, we find out what is the major dosha.
When I read my own pulse, and there is a part of listening to the pulse, my prakriti is vata two, pitta three, kapha one.
One is low, two is moderate, three is more.
So I am pitta predominant, vata secondary.
But because of diet, lifestyle changes, the dosha go out of balance.
And that can be detected to the superficial pulse.
Oh yeah, that's great.
Wow.
Can I see your tongue?
Oh, yeah.
You are traveling a lot.
So your Prakriti is pretty balanced.
Two, three, two.
Vata, two.
Pitta, three.
