Designing Your Garden & Daily Routine
Wellness isn’t one‑size‑fits‑all. Personalisation has become a key trend in 2026, with wellness experts encouraging routines tailored to individual constitutions. The Practical Herbalist suggests planting herbs in your garden based on your Ayurvedic dosha – Vata, Pitta or Kapha – to align with your constitution. Meanwhile, The Naked Pharmacy highlights evidence‑backed botanicals like saffron for mood, ashwagandha for stress and olive leaf for immune support.
Step 1: Discover Your Dosha
Take a short quiz (available on our blog) to determine whether you have a predominantly Vata, Pitta or Kapha constitution. This will guide herb selection and lifestyle choices.
Step 2: Plant Your Dosha Garden
-
Vata: Favour warming and grounding herbs such as basil, fennel, ginger and ashwagandha.
-
Pitta: Plant cooling, soothing herbs like peppermint, chamomile, coriander and rose.
-
Kapha: Choose stimulating and digestive herbs like rosemary, sage, tulsi and black pepper.
Include evidence-based botanicals (e.g., saffron for mood support, olive leaf for immune health) to bridge tradition and science.
Step 3: Create a Personalised Routine
-
Start the day with a warm herbal infusion tailored to your dosha.
-
Incorporate breathwork or gentle yoga to balance energy.
-
Use adaptogens like ashwagandha or saffron supplements, if appropriate, to support stress resilience.
