Ayurved does not practice the ‘one size fits all’ methodology as it trusts that every individual is a unique part of nature with a distinctive combination of the five elements of nature, namely fire, water, earth, air and space, where earth is the physical body (muscles and bones), water is the blood, air is what we breathe, fire is the heat generated in our body for metabolism, absorption and body temperature and space is the spirit that dwells in.

Ayurveda states childhood is the phase for complete physical, emotional, social and intellectual development and a baby is considered as an individual in Ayurveda from its birth itself. Ayurveda treats every newborn as a unique creation with distinctive state of body and mind, known as doshas namely vata, pitta and kapha. According to Ayurved having a balanced Vata Dosha is essential for the proper growth and development of babies.
