Pitta Season
According to Ayurveda, the seasonal cycle of the year brings about a change in the predominance of the Doshas in our bodies. This time of year, Late Spring and Summer, is governed by Pitta Dosha.
Pitta is the energy of Fire and Water – heat, transformation, passion, motivation, hard work, and metabolism. This dosha gives warmth to the tissues, lustre to the skin, energy to the whole body, and the drive to get out and DO. Pitta governs digestion, vision, the blood, liver and skin, problem-solving, conviction and insight. In excess, Pitta can cause inflammation, heartburn, acid-reflux, rashes, acne, diarrhea, difficulty falling asleep, over-thinking, burnout, and muscle fatigue, as well as anger, envy, and a judgmental attitude.

Pitta Lifestyle Tips
DIET
Pitta’s digestion is the quickest of the three doshas.
Enjoy a diet of mostly fresh, sweet and cooling foods, like bitter greens, squashes, legumes, and sweet, juicy fruits. Use cooling herbs, such as parsley, coriander, and dill. Avoid fatty and fried food, and overly spicy foods. Be sure to enjoy your largest meal at lunchtime.
SELF-CARE
Pitta types should prioritize calming, soothing activities and periods of rest, as they tend to over-do and get burnt-out. Seek out water for swimming in or walking beside, avoid excess sun-exposure, and practice moderation in all things.
SLEEP
Pitta people tend to have a hard time falling asleep as their minds get over-active and their bodies over-heated. Try to go to bed before 10 or 11pm, and keep an open window in your bedroom.
EXERCISE
During Pitta Season, enjoy moderate exercise in a cooler environment or in the cooler times of the day, and be careful not to over-do.
