Let us begin by chanting the sacred mantra Aum three times to invoke and balance the energies of Pitta. Our emphasis in today’s lesson will be on diet and foods that serve Pitta types best. Key aspects to remember with Pitta types are cooling, calming foods that are eaten in moderation are the best path taken

A Pitta balancing yoga routine should focus on:

• Asanas that stretch and tone the abdominal muscles
• Bending and twisting asanas to help Pacify pitta
• Pranayamas or breathing exercises and meditation to promote relaxation

For today's lesson, we will practice the Dhanurasana (The Bow Pose).
