Namaste Yoga 20: The Kapha Dosha with Dr Melissa West Episode 20 of Namaste Yoga with Dr Melissa West, we will be focussing on bringing balance to the kapha dosha. Kapha is the dominant dosha of winter, it is dark, heavy and damp like winter. When the kapha dosha becomes imbalanced we can experience inertia, sluggishness, depression, lethargy, and fatigue. To bring some energy to this imbalance we will engage in a practice that is stimulating, moving, warming, lightening and energizing.
