Embracing Pitta

I have to share an interesting insight. I have been studying Ayurveda for a long time and I thought I knew my Prakruti or constitutional type; I have finally come to embrace the truth that I am a very strong Pitta. I have been learning pulse reading and have been working with fellow students and my teacher which has helped me understand that yes, I really am Pitta dominant. The fiery quality of Pitta I had mainly identified with anger, however that is a distorted expression. Upon deeper investigation I have learned that Pitta can with awareness be a source of inspiration for positive change. That Pitta people are very good leaders, visionaries, and initiators of new ideas. This lesson is important; because even after years of looking within I still found that it is possible to deny my most powerful and unique gifts. I understand more clearly how even when we respond with negative thoughts and emotions, there is always the opposite present at the same time. I hope this insight helps some of you to reclaim your own unique gifts and qualities.
