Dosha-Balancing Sun Salutes for Every Season

Overview

Ayurveda teaches us that we are at our optimal state when the three doshas—pitta, kapha, and vata—are in balance. Seasonal factors can make it difficult to achieve this balance: the summer heat may spike our pitta and autumnal dryness may disturb our vata, for example. In this series, Sarah Guglielmi offers dosha-balancing sun salutes as a great way to bring support into your daily practice throughout the seasons. Whether you are looking to cool an overheated mind or body, ease restlessness, or stimulate energy flow, you will find an accessible sun salute here to help you move in sync with nature's cycles.
