Find out your Dosha

Instructions: To determine your constitution it is best to fill out the quiz twice.

First, base your choices on what is most consistent over a long period of your life (your prakruti)

Then fill it out a second time responding to how you have been feeling more recently (your vikruti).

Sometimes it helps to have a friend ask you the questions and fill in the chart for you, as they may have insight (and impartiality) to offer. After finishing the quiz, you will be shown your dosha ratios.

Most people will have one dosha predominant, a few will have two doshas approximately equal and even fewer will have all three doshas in equal proportion. For instance, if your vikruti shows more pitta than your prakruti, you will want to follow a pitta-soothing regimen to try and bring your vikruti back into balance with your prakruti. If your prakruti and vikruti seem about the same, then you would choose the regimen of your strongest dosha.
