At the bottom right hand corner you can pick your dosha and see more about your types. For me these two things were a great starting point to learning about the Ayurveda. I am still learning, but just wanted to share these links

Namaste : )=<

I am vata 100% mind and body..air & ether.

[Anomalia Zelta]

Coooooooool Imzadi we are both vata I love the vata pacifying foods....especially rice pudding mmmmmmmmmmmmm

[Anomalia Zelta]

I am multiracial and mixed with Indian So I am happy to read all of what you are writing lol. I love my indian culture I'm a bit watered down though. This one guy told me I am the typical NRI LOL I found out later it means non-resident indian, so I explained to him I am multiracial and multicultural

I can make a few dishes but nothing like my family lol. I do mix my own spices to make curry though I love hindi and music in hindi, saris, lehenga with choli (dress) everything lol..well for the movies it depends....not much of a bollywood fan.

I actually did not know anything about ayurveda until a few months ago when I stumbled across the test on tickle. I was talking to some of my Indian friends about it later and they were like you are late, where have you been all of these years


Oh and BTW I loooooooove cheese

[Anomalia Zelta]

OMG KUCH KUCH HOTA HAI IS THE BEST!!!!!!! ok I am not done reading your post yet will go back.. I know every song on the soundtrack lol I love that movie!
----------------------------------------------------------------
Me too I practically cried my way through the entire movie. LOL I love chai. Tazo makes a good chai blend in a tea bag. I make pretty good chai as well. Nothing wrong with chatting. Sometimes I talk so much and then sometimes I am so quiet.

[Anomalia Zelta]

LOOLOLOL too cool I bellydance....but bellydancing, I don't know It is fun but it is sort of like a way of life. I don't know how to explain it...it is like a part of your soul. But man if u can dance bhangara, you have a ton of energy! That dance is really powerful...I mean powerful movements.

[Anomalia Zelta]

I actually like it LOL there is a song I like called Number 1 Punjabi and they talk about the punjabi people kicking up a storm lol because bhangara is a punjabi thing....I was watching a video once of some youth doing bhangara....let me see if i can find it

"5 Reasons to Love a Vata

[Anomalia Zelta]

(my students are small and think my stomach was made for them to hug and rest their heads on)

OMG this is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo cute! awwwwwww

[goddess_in_embryo]

My problem is that while I have a predictable stomach clock, I almost never listen to it. This leaves me very dizzy a lot of the time.

Ever play with sparklers and spin around fast with them in your hands? That's me. All the time.

...even when I do eat, actually. lol!

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

I am a true vata...I never know when I will eat and everyday it is different. I fight sleep like it is an avowed enemy and routine is my worst nightmare ,although it is exactly what i need to be in balance.

[goddess_in_embryo]

I like the sun, but it hurts to go out in it. Very much not fair. *sad face*

Everything I like is bad for me. Oh well. *keeps spinning*

lolololololol That is the only think I am not like vata in...I do not like the heat or humidity. I like the sun, but I do not like to be hot. I prefer to be cold.

*keeps spinning* LOLOLOL that rox

That's why if I'm still an excited bundle of energy, I put on my headphones and (in my mind) dance to the music till I just fall asleep.

I picture myself in a gymnasium with a sterio (and sometimes a dance partner) and just dance to whichever song is playing.

If I danced like I dance in my mind (with all that energy and exuberance) I'd have that vata body!

Yes that stick thin body I hear you with that one...I need to lose some pounds myself. But they said for vatas it is easy we just have to eat what vatas are supposed to eat and we will balance again.

[goddess_in_embryo]

I am working on losing weight too. The thing is, is that while I'm losing inches... I'm actually gaining weight.

Yay muscle mass?

[Anomalia Zelta]

I hate when that happens, its so confusing....clothes are getting too loose and the scale is going in the opposite direction. Sure let's blame it on muscle mass...but what's really happening???? Anyways it is better to build more muscle so that you lose more weight ... or so I have heard. Lean muscle mass.

[goddess_in_embryo]

Part of it is my bone structure. Very large bones and a short body. But yes, the muscle mass will pay off in the end... so the scale can say what it wants for now.

I wouldn't even have to deal with the weight if I hadn't gotten so sick (my immune system is messed up from severe complications from pregnancy)... but I have an awesome 10 year old out of the deal, so... made of win anyhow!
