Several years ago, when I went searching for ways to heal my body and mind, I didn't expect to discover my soul. Yet the closer Ayurveda brought me to balancing the connection between my physical and psychological realms, the more I came to understand my life's purpose, or dharma.
Sure, understanding the doshas can help your digestion, balance your hormones, and improve your mood. But Ayurveda is so much more than that. During the past decade of studying and sharing the essential truth of the doshas, I feel like I've been coming home to a part of myself that I didn't know I was missing.
WHY FINDING YOUR DHARMA IS ESSENTIAL
Your dharma is the unique vibration only you can carry into the world. Following your purpose feels good because it's what you're meant to do; it's the big reason you're here. Being in-line with your dharma is also when your biggest ideas or "aha" moments can come through.
In recent years, an increasing number of us has become aware that we are not meant to do unfulfilling work every day for the rest of our lives. According to a survey by Joblist, 73 percent of Americans are seriously considering quitting their jobs, and half of those who have quit are changing careers. Granted, not everyone has the privilege of being able to change careers to be their happiest and truest selves. But if you have the ability to do so, or find yourself at a crossroads-by choice or otherwise-look to your dosha.
