• Dual • Combination / Tridoshic

Shanti Sthira

Shanti — peace • Sthira — steadiness (Vata-Pitta)
Intensity : Moderate
Duration : 60 min
Level : All levels
Best for : Dual
For the racing mind attached to the burning drive — a grounding, cooling practice built for the Vata-Pitta constitution, steadying two energies at once.

Balancing the Vata-Pitta type

Many people are not one dosha but two — and Vata-Pitta is among the most common combinations, especially in a fast, ambitious city. It carries a distinctive double challenge: the restless, anxious quality of Vata paired with the driven, overheating intensity of Pitta. The mind races and the fire burns, together.
A single-dosha class only half-addresses this. Shanti Sthira — peace and steadiness — is built for the combination itself: grounding enough to settle Vata, cooling enough to soften Pitta, and never so stimulating that it aggravates either.
What happens in the class
The class combines the grounding, stabilising qualities Vata needs — steady standing postures, forward folds, deliberate pacing — with the cooling qualities Pitta needs, including Sheetali breath and a calm, non-competitive atmosphere. The practice is neither stimulating nor heating; it steadies and cools in equal measure, teaching the Vata-Pitta system that stillness and intensity can coexist. It closes in grounding, cooling rest.

Benefits

  • Steadies the anxious, racing Vata mind
  • Cools the driven, overheating Pitta fire
  • Addresses both energies in one balanced practice
  • Grounds and calms without stimulating
  • Ideal for the common Vata-Pitta constitution
