Tridoshic Morning Flow
Not sure of your dosha? This balanced morning flow is designed to harmonise all three doshas simultaneously. Drawing on the Hatha Yoga Pradipika's emphasis on balance, this sequence combines grounding elements (for Vata), cooling postures (for Pitta), and dynamic movements (for Kapha) into a single, accessible practice. It is the ideal starting point for anyone new to dosha-based yoga, and serves as a reliable daily practice for those with dual-dosha or tridoshic constitutions.
Best time: Morning (6-7:30 AM)
