The ancient science of holistic medicine Ayurveda, views heart as the most pivotal part of a human body and the seat of human consciousness. Heart health thus is a direct reflection of our state of balance or imbalance.
According to Ayurveda, heart befits to be the fundamental dwelling for the tridoshas – vata, pitta, kapha and also plays a vital role in the function of number of internal body channels called Srotas. These channels are responsible for circulation of energy, wastes, various constituents like dhatus (tissues) and prana (air). Heart is also home to the most refined and essential form of Ojas (epitome of immunity, strength and vigour in a human body) that is said to sustain the activity of heart, consciousness and life itself.
