Kapha 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 – winter through late spring, is kapha season in our region.
Kapha is the energy of water and earth, structure and cohesiveness, grounding and stability. This dosha hydrates all cells and systems, lubricates the joints, moisturizes the skin, maintains immunity, and protects the tissues. Kapha governs nourishment, growth, lubrication, stamina, and our ability to feel contentment. It embodies the watery energies of love and compassion. In excess, kapha can cause sluggishness, lack of motivation, heaviness in the mind and body, and excessive sleep.

Kapha Lifestyle Tips
DIET
Kapha’s digestion is the slowest of the three doshas.
Enjoy a diet of mostly light, dry and warm foods, like bitter vegetables, legumes, and astringent fruits. Use warming spices, like ginger, pepper and cayenne. Avoid dairy and oily foods. Be sure to enjoy your largest meal at lunchtime.
SLEEP
Kapha people tend to be very heavy and long sleepers, but at this time of year it is important to not overdo it. Try doing an early rise a couple days a week at 5:30 or 6 a.m.
EXERCISE
Movement and exertion are perfect antidotes to the stagnation that can plague Kapha types, Ayurvedic experts recommend a vigorous exercise routine that makes you sweat. Saunas are often a great invigorating choice.
SELF-CARE
Kapha types should prioritize self-care and be careful of a tendency to take care of others at the expense of their own needs. Try to socialize, wear bright colours and listen to energizing music.
