Prakriti Assessment
Discover your birth constitution — Vata, Pitta, and Kapha
A guided questionnaire that estimates your lifelong Ayurvedic mind–body blueprint. Sign in to take the assessment; results personalise chat, diet, and lifestyle guidance on ayuveda.ai.
Understanding Prakriti
Adults exploring Ayurvedic constitution for personalised lifestyle, diet, and self-care — whether you are new to Doshas or ready to give the AI a lasting baseline.
What Prakriti is
Prakriti is your inherent energetic blueprint, traditionally considered set at conception. It is a unique ratio of the three Doshas — Vata, Pitta, and Kapha — that stays relatively stable through life, much like a constitutional tendency rather than a mood or a season.
What it means in Ayurveda
Knowing Prakriti is the foundation of personalised Ayurveda. It shapes how you tend to look and feel when balanced, which climates and foods suit you, your emotional defaults under stress, and where you may be more vulnerable when out of balance.
How ayuveda.ai uses it
Your Prakriti profile becomes a lifelong baseline in your health context. The AI can then tailor educational diet, routine, and herbal framing to your natural state — instead of generic one-size-fits-all advice — while Vikriti and other tools describe what is shifting right now.
Model / tradition: Classical Prakriti (constitutional) assessment framed for modern digital use. Educational questionnaire covering physical, physiological, and psychological traits — not Nadi Pariksha or a clinical diagnosis.
The three Doshas
Ayurveda describes three fundamental energies that shape body and mind. Your Prakriti is the unique mix you were born with — often one dominant Dosha, or a dual blend.
Vata
Air & Space
“Movement, creativity, flexibility”
- Creative and quick-thinking
- Variable appetite and energy
- Light or interrupted sleep when imbalanced
- Tendency to worry or feel restless under stress
Pitta
Fire & Water
“Transformation, metabolism, intelligence”
- Sharp intellect and focus
- Strong digestion when balanced
- Drive and leadership qualities
- Tendency toward intensity or irritability under stress
Kapha
Earth & Water
“Structure, stability, lubrication”
- Stable build and calm disposition
- Steady energy and good stamina
- Strong memory when balanced
- Tendency to gain weight or feel heavy under stress
Prakriti vs Vikriti
Prakriti is your constitutional baseline — who you tend to be when balanced. Vikriti is your current state — how stress, season, diet, and age may be pulling you away from that baseline. This page’s assessment estimates Prakriti. After you have a baseline, the Vikriti assessment helps map present imbalances so guidance can aim at realignment, not just a type label.

Prakriti
Lifelong tendencies — frame, appetite rhythm, temperament, and climate preference as they have generally been for most of your life.
Present state
Vikriti
Recent shifts from stress, season, diet, travel, or illness — the gap between how you feel now and your natural constitution.

Your baseline informs Ask AI, lifestyle suggestions, and related assessments. When you feel “off,” Vikriti helps describe the current gap from Prakriti.
How to answer well
Prakriti is about lifelong patterns. Keep recent illness, stress spikes, or seasonal swings in mind — but do not let them dominate every answer.
- Answer for how you have generally been for most of your life — especially childhood and young adulthood — not only how you feel this week.
- If weight, sleep, or mood recently changed due to stress, illness, travel, or season, prefer the longer-term pattern.
- When two options both feel true, that can signal a dual constitution — note it mentally and pick the closer lifelong fit.
- Take the questionnaire in a calm state when possible; strong emotion or acute illness can pull answers toward Vikriti (current state).
What you get

Prakriti FAQs
Prakriti is your unique, inherent mind–body constitution. The assessment evaluates physical, psychological, and physiological traits to estimate your dominant Doshas (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) and their relative balance.
