Ayurvedic Theory by Matthew Remski in Seven Bullet Points
1. We consist, roughly, of two parts: a feeling part, and a conscious part.
2. The feeling part is a unique combination of elemental qualities and movement patterns we may call "constitution". It is the basis of the conscious part.
3. Constitution can harmonize or clash with its natural and social environment, whether by conscious choice or by circumstance.
4. Not paying attention to sensual feedback, internal rhythms and environmental changes prematurely weakens first vitality, and then immunity.
5. As immunity weakens, the natural strengths of structure (kapha), metabolism (pitta), and coordination (vata) express their shadows: congestion (k), inflammation (p), and disorganization (v).
6. Good digestion is the root of feeling health and conscious health.
7. Pleasure, transparency, and resilience are its flowers.
