    Summer, with all its brightness and intensity, is a time when Pitta can easily go out of balance, even for those who don’t have a Pitta constitution. And when we don’t know the signs of imbalance or we ignore them, it can lead to everything from digestive issues and skin flare-ups to burnout, irritability and emotional overload.

Whether you’re naturally fiery or just feeling the heat of the season, you’ll come away with practical ways to stay cool, calm, and balanced all summer long. Colette discusses the following:

    • Understanding the Pitta dosha.
    • Why Summer aggravates the Pitta dosha.
    • The importance of seasonal awareness.
    • Dietary guidelines for Pitta in Summer.
