Pitta is the second dosha, or “that which digest Pitta is the second dosha, or “that which digests things.” Pitta has the qualities of sharpness, oiliness, lightness and instability. In the physical body, pitta is behind our digestion and metabolism. It's the force of heat in the body that keeps us at a sultry 98.6°F. ⁠
⁠
When Pitta is in balance, we feel focused, courageous and driven. When there's too much of it, we can feel inflamed, impatient, perfectionistic or simply too hot, physically and emotionally.⁠
⁠
But here’s the good news. Ayurveda teaches us that the opposite is the medicine. ⁠
