At the core Tibetan medicine lies the theory of the five mahabhutas - Earth, Water, Fire, Wind and Space. It is the energy of the five mahabhutas that shapes the human body and creates the three causes of health and disease - wind, bile and phlegm.

Earth– energy that gives the ability to withstand external influences. She is responsible for the formation muscle tissue, bones and sense of smell.

Water– the energy of coherence, combining various elements into one whole. It is responsible for the formation of blood, body fluids and the sense of taste.

Fire - warmth, the energy of bringing something to maturity. It is responsible for body temperature, appearance and sense of sight.

Wind- the basis of any movement. It is responsible for breathing and the sense of touch.

Space- absence of an obstacle. It forms cavities in the human body.

All diseases in Tibetan medicine are divided into three categories:

wind diseases – heart, aorta and colon;

bile diseases– lungs, liver, gall bladder;

mucus diseases– stomach, spleen and kidneys.

These three components are invariably present in any organism. In other words, the disease is with us all the time, but whether it manifests itself or not depends on whether these components are in balance or lose it. If you want to be healthy, maintain a delicate balance and strictly monitor your lifestyle.

What are the main causes of disease? From the point of view of Tibetan medicine, the “three poisons” are to blame - ignorance, passion And hatred. It is these psychic elements that activate wind, bile and mucus and, under certain conditions, upset their balance. About what conditions we're talking about? These are the factors time, adversity, nutrition And lifestyle. They are the ones who cause painful changes in the body.
