One of the foundational principles of Ayurveda is that “like increases like,” and opposites balance. Therefore, because Pitta dosha is hot, sharp, and oily in nature, it benefits from things that are cooling and soothing. Some of the easiest ways to restore balance to Pitta: engaging in cooling activities like swimming, strolling in nature (but not under the hot sun), and doing light-hearted things like spending time with loved-ones and children. Fiery, intense Pitta benefits by being more playful in life!
- People with Pitta body types tend to work long hours and expect a great deal of themselves and others. Remember: you can still be a perfectionist and have fun along the way.
- Follow a Pitta dosha-balancing diet, favouring cooling, heavy, dry foods and sweet, bitter, and astringent tastes. Avoid or reduce foods that are hot, sour, salty, and spicy. See full Pitta Dosha Diet Guidelines below.
- Keep cool. Avoid hot temperatures and food and spicy meals.
- Remember: everything in moderation. Try to avoid overworking and bring balance to your daily routine.
- Allow for uplifting leisure time every day.
- Don’t skip meals(which inevitably leads to “hanger” for Pitta types). Eat three satisfying meals per day, at about the same time each day.
- Ensure your largest meal of the day takes place at noon, when your digestive fire is strongest.
- Give yourself an abhyanga (self-massage with warm oil) each day before bathing, using a cooling oil such as coconut.
