Abstract

This article explores the conceptual intersections between Tridosha Siddhanta, the foundational theory of Ayurveda, and the Biorhythm Theory, a modern psychological model of cyclical biological and emotional states. Tridosha Siddhanta posits that human health and wellness are governed by the balance of three fundamental Doshas Vata, Pitta, and Kapha each representing a combination of the five elements and their dynamic influences on physiological and psychological functions. In contrast, Biorhythm Theory suggests that individuals experience predictable cycles of physical, emotional, and intellectual states influenced by inherent rhythms. By analyzing both systems, this article seeks to elucidate how the cyclical nature of biorhythms might correlate with the doshic imbalances and fluctuations described in Ayurveda. It aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of how integrating these two paradigms can enhance approaches to personalized health and wellness, offering a holistic perspective that bridges ancient wisdom with contemporary scientific insights.
