Pitta is a mixture of the elements water and fire. Pitta individuals are naturally very firey which can make them susceptible to angry outbursts and anxiety. They are wise, possess a strong intellect, with strong moral values, are passionate about their opinions and towards the people they love. Their minds are active and they are known for being tender and sensitive. It is important for them to practice a calm disposition in their lifestyle. Like Vata, Pitta benefits a great deal from meditation and pranayama (breathing exercises). Foods and herbs that are sweet and cool benefit pitta the most as their nature possesses too much heat along with acidity. Pitta’s are prone to the aging process since they are constantly in an anabolic state and using a lot of energy. Therefore, they need even more energy to maintain themselves and they need herbs which can yield energy with a cool and calm effect. Pitta resides mostly in the blood and this is the reason why Pitta people are prone to skin disease like acne, psoriasis, eczema, inflammations and rosacea. Pitta people are prone to early graying of the hair. Ayurveda speaks of three herbs Amalaki, Bhringraj and Yashtimadhu, which are the best herbs to promote all aspects of healthy hair growth. This herbal blend can be found in Ayurvedic Herbal Hair Oil.
