Kapha is a thoughtfully crafted Ayurvedic tisana featuring a certified organic blend of powerful spices: ginger, cardamom, coriander, turmeric, cloves, and nutmeg. This infusion is designed to harmonize the Kapha dosha, one of the three vital energies central to Ayurveda the ancient Indian holistic system of medicine and well-being that dates back thousands of years.

Ayurveda derived from the Sanskrit words ayur (life) and veda (knowledge) is a comprehensive medical science that integrates body, mind, and spirit to promote optimal health. Rooted in texts and oral traditions that are approximately 6000 years old, Ayurveda categorizes the human constitution through three doshas: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. These doshas are fundamental bioenergetic principles that govern physiological and psychological processes within the body.

Each dosha is composed of two of the five great elements (panca-mahabhutani) and is characterized by specific qualities (guna). The balance or imbalance of these doshas directly influences an individual’s health and vitality. Vata (space and air): Governs movement, including nervous system activity, respiration, and circulation. It embodies qualities such as dryness, coldness, lightness, and mobility.

Pitta (fire and water): Controls transformation and metabolism, both physically (digestion and enzymatic processes) and mentally (emotional processing). It is characterized by heat, sharpness, and fluidity.

Kapha (water and earth): Provides cohesion, stability, and lubrication within the body. It is associated with qualities like heaviness, coldness, moisture, and density, maintaining bodily structure and uniformity.

The Kapha blend tisana is formulated to support the equilibrium of this dosha by combining warming and stimulating spices that counteract Kapha’s cold, heavy, and moist nature. Ginger and turmeric contribute anti-inflammatory and digestive properties, while cardamom, coriander, cloves, and nutmeg add aromatic warmth and aid in circulation and metabolism.

According to Ayurveda, illness arises from the disruption (vikriti) of dosha balance. Restoring harmony involves addressing three main causes of imbalance:

• Prajna-aparadha – Intellectual errors where one knowingly repeats harmful actions or habits driven by material desires or impulses.
• Kala-parinama – Natural fluctuations of doshas due to time, seasons, and life cycles.
• Asatmyendriyartha-samyoga – Improper use or overuse of the senses, causing disharmony.

By consciously adopting lifestyle choices and natural remedies such as the Kapha tisana, one can restore the doshic balance (prakriti) and promote holistic healing.
