On The Road with European Ayurveda®: Travel Tips for Your Dosha


Ah, how beautiful a vacation can be! Do you dream weeks before your next trip about the new places you will discover? Of unforgettable moments in which you feel happy, healthy, and full of vitality?
Long travel times, little movement, a changed daily routine, and foreign cuisine can sometimes pose challenges to your body during the most beautiful time of the year. Energy loss, mood swings, and digestive issues can be the result. To ensure you enjoy your getaway at the European Ayurveda Resort Sonnhof or elsewhere to the fullest, we have compiled tips and products tailored to your Dosha.
Travel Tips and European Ayurveda® Products for the Vata Type
As a Vata type, you are always on the go, very active, and therefore love to travel. You are excited when you have the chance to learn something new, change your life, and encounter new things – but often suffer from inner restlessness in a foreign environment and find it difficult to relax.
Your EA Travel Tip
Even if there is so much to discover at your vacation spot – avoid leisure stress and make sure to take sufficient breaks and relax. Try to regularly eat warm, freshly cooked meals and avoid legumes and onions.
Your EA Travel Essential
If Vata Dosha dominates you, you probably tend to have dry skin. Air conditioning, sun, and wind further imbalance it in summer. On your travels, rely on our European Ayurveda® Facial Oil Glow, which supplies your skin with rich ingredients and has a calming effect on body and mind.

Travel Tips and European Ayurveda® Products for the Pitta Type
As a Pitta type, you like to show off your energy and performance. Sometimes, you forget to pay attention to your own limits and strain your health.
Your EA Travel Tip
Vacation often raises high expectations – of yourself and your surroundings. Try to overcome your inner desire for control and perfection, and practice serenity when things don't go as planned. Perhaps life holds a positive surprise for you?
Your EA Travel Essential
Particularly in summer, Pitta types feel weakened by too much Ama (metabolic residues) and suffer from a weak immune system. On vacation, Ayurvedic tea – preferably enjoyed lukewarm – can help strengthen your detox organs. The tea variety Fresh Delight contains not only green Sencha tea but also ginger, lemongrass, and eucalyptus.

Travel Tips and European Ayurveda® Products for the Kapha Type
As a Kapha type, with your balanced personality, you are a rock for many. You love the water and the warmth of summer – and sometimes forget about physical activity and mindfulness when eating on hot days.
Your EA Travel Tip
If Kapha Dosha dominates you, try not to give in to your tendency towards passivity and excessive indulgence while traveling. Practice mental and physical activity and try out a new sport, for example!
Your EA Travel Essential
Summer is your season. Boost your good mood with the Auraspray "Love yourself". The combination of essential oils can have an invigorating and mood-lifting effect, and provide you with joy and a sense of security.
