Hi First name / there,
Today we're talking about subtle forces, specifically Prana, Tejas & Ojas.
These three operate on a finer, more subtle plane than Vata, Pitta, and Kapha Doshas but are just as important.
Together, they work harmoniously and are deeply connected in people and our world.
Prana is the vital life force that influences unconscious rhythms, stimulates mental and emotional processes, and promotes holistic stability.
Excess Prana Looks Like:
- Impulsive behavior
- Hyperactivity
- Unstable moods
- Restlessness
- Irritability
Deficient Prana Looks Like:
- Reduced creativity
- Reduced energy
- Lack of motivation
Tejas is our body's glowing, radiant element that promotes intelligence and brilliance and turns nutrients into energy.
Excess Tejas Looks Like:
- Feelings of anger or judgment
- Chronic doubt
- Grouchiness
- Self-righteousness
Deficient Tejas Looks Like:
- Difficulty learning by experience
- Lack of discernment
Ojas is the finest element of all body tissues and, when nourished, it promotes vitality, stability, strength, and contentment.
Excess Ojas Looks Like:
- Complacency
- Lack of mental sharpness
Deficient Ojas Looks Like:
- Worry
- Mental fatigue
- Lack of confidence
Achieving BALANCE
Balancing each force to work in harmony with the other requires mindfulness and lifestyle changes, including:
- Yogic breath to relax the body
- Mindful meditation, positive affirmations, and intentional awareness
- Spice your food according to your constitution
- Avoid negative self-talk, poisonous conversations, and toxic people
- Eat a nourishing, balanced diet in alignment with your constitution
- Avoid eating when angry, afraid, or if your body is still digesting
- Engage in positive affirmations and add meditation to your daily routine
