Ayurveda Test


Greens, lots of water, fresh fruits, cotton clothes, organic food and love for nature – Define me and my interests. Then a question pops up in my mind – Why am I driven to these things. Why I prefer evening walks. Why do I like to visit natural beauty over man-made structures? Am I meant to be like this? Or is it what my mind, body and soul demands for? 

But I did get my answers when I accidently bumped into a test called “Prakriti Test” – It’s a Ayurveda Body Test. Well, to begin with Ayurveda means - “A Knowledge for Life Long”. Ayurveda believes in 5 Elements: Earth, Water, Fire, Air & Sky and 3 Doshas – Called Vatha, Pitha & Kapha.

Ayurvedic Medicine is traditional medicine system native to India. Knowingly or unknowingly we follow lot of things that surrounds Ayurvedic practices.  It is in our (Indians) blood to look for home remedies for most the illness until absolutely necessary to visit Doctor as we hardly believe in having capsules/medicine for every other silly illness. Strange but true and why is that it is still practiced because it does yield better results. For example: If you look for anti-inflammation: Omega 3 Capsules helps reduce the inflammation i.e. fish oil capsules nothing but natural stuff and so does the Turmeric that is a part for Ginger family helps in reducing inflammation. Hence, they always opt to have little Turmeric in Milk for patients. It has the healing power!


Very well, my intention is to take a test and find out which category does you fall in?
Here’s the link for the Test:
The results were precise for me. It tells you When and what you need to balance, lists your Dietary and Lifestyle Recommendations too.
