Dear Tammy
There are several books on Ayurveda that can speak further about your bodymind type, my favourites are from my three mentors, Dr.Robert Svoboda ,a book called Prakruti your Ayurveda Constititution, and a classic writer for women is Bri.Maya Tiwari, her three books are amazing on how she healed her body and life from cancer with Ayurveda, the first book is Ayurveda a life of Balance ,which is a must read,! my third mentor is Dr.Vasant Lad, all his books are very informative.
I will post up soon the Pitta balancing skincare rituals.
If you are ever in Toronto or Lethbridge do join us for an Ayurveda night of food and information, blessings Andrea

Very interesting! I have never heard of this before, but took the questionaire to find out what Dosha i am. I am mostly a Vata apparently, with a score of 14, Kapha was a 9 and Pitta was a 6. The overview sounds like me! Now i just need to read some more and figure out what it all means and what to do . . . thanks for the info!
