Kapha Dosha
Kapha dosha types have a excellent stamina and generally strong build. Large, kind eyes; smooth, even and radiant skin; and thick, luscious hair are also key Kapha characteristics. People who are predominantly Kapha enjoy sound sleep and rarely experience digestive issues. However, when Kapha dosha builds to excess, fluid retention, weight gain and allergies manifest in the body. When out of balance, Kapha dosha types may become overweight, experience lethargy and excessive patterns of sleep, and suffer from asthma, diabetes, and depression.
