 Dosha Quiz

This free Dosha test will help you determine your mind-body constitution - Vata, Pitta or Kapha, which are derived from 5 sources of energy. Knowing your Dosha or your Ayurveda Body Type and then making diet and lifestyle choices to keep your mind, body and environment in balance will help you live a healthier, vibrant life, improve your physical and mental health, as well as your skin and overall appearance.

Choose answers based on what describes your constitution best throughout your lifetime or at least in the last 3-5 years.
