Vikriti

The current state of dosha imbalance in Ayurveda, as opposed to the innate and stable Prakriti. Vikriti fluctuates with diet, stress, seasons and lifestyle, revealing the excesses to correct. During the intake assessment at a palace retreat, the physician compares Prakriti and Vikriti to target the cure, for instance a Pitta imbalance brought on by a long-haul flight.
