Originating in prehistoric India, is based on the approach that acknowledges that all diseases are caused by abnormalities of the digestive system. Everything that exists on earth is believed to be composed of five elements (pancha mahabhooota): earth (prithyi), fire (agni), water (jal), air (yayu) and ether (akash). The latter can be described as a space about Ayurveda combines these into three main doshas: Vata, is a combination of elements ether, Pitta, which is equal to the element of fire, air and Kapha is a combination of the elements of the earth and water). Each of these has specific effects on the body, and when in equilibrium then the body is also in equilibrium. Vata governs what is loosely described as a movementin the mind and body. Too much vata leads to worry, anxiety, constipation and stomach cramps. It is responsible for waste elimination, the blood flow of the breath and thought uniform motion. Everything connected with the movement in the body. It is believed to be expressed visibly and audibly as creativity and art and is also believed to be the root cause of all disease and illness.
