Awwwww, thank you! You have no idea how hard it was for me to add my physical voice to these posts! Now, I actually enjoy doing it. Did you find me via Christiane? I feel like I recognize you from there. 💗

This is so good! I have been trying to learn more about Ayurveda the last few years. Simply stopping drinking cold beverages has done so much for my stomach and digestive issues. I really appreciated the way you presented this and tied it up so neatly. I learned a lot!

I'm so glad you found it helpful, Amanda! I really do try to simplify and keep it relatable. It can get complicated. Yes, the stopping cold beverages (especially at meal time!) was huge for me, too. Tell that to American restaurants everywhere. 🙄 xo

If only I could shake my occasional weakness for potato chips!

I don't even try anymore. I just had some... 🤭

Though I’ve studied Doshas in the past, I’ve never connected with my Pitta nature quite so thoroughly. I feel like I’ve ‘grown into’ my Dosha with age. What a perfect description of everything I’m experiencing, thank you.

And some really great tips for re-balancing...(eat your lunch!) (go to bed!) ❤️‍🔥😅

Yes! Those two tips would shift so many things. Sadly, most of my Pitta clients would just roll their eyes at me. 🙄 But, it was always my highly Pitta friends who I would call on in desperation to help me get organized. And if they had a lot of Virgo in their chart, they were solid gold Pitta! Glad you enjoyed reading it! xo

Thanks for reading, MJ. Well, yes, many years. But, I did admit to having potato chips for dinner the other night. 😳 That might have blown my credibility a bit. The worst kind of food for Vata (crunchy and dry). Gotta have some food fun sometimes, right? xo

Yes, you do. You're funny.

I really appreciate the information Barbara. I took the quiz which determined that my constitution is Pitta-Vata type. I am unbalanced in all three doshas. 😳 Lots of work to do!

Glad you liked it, Heather! Thanks for reading. We're living in an unbalanced world, so no wonder most of us are constantly having to re-balance ourselves. Good luck! xo

Hahahaha! 🥥 🌴 It will be refreshing if it ever warms up here. It's in the 40's again. I have to say, I'm loving it. Big hugs, my friend. Thx for reading! xoxo
