This simple, soft recipe has a pungent kick. I usually use pickled artichokes, but you can also use canned ones or cut your own from fresh artichokes.
1. If using fresh artichokes, steam in 1/2c water, covered, until soft. Then cut artichoke hearts in half.
2. Mix mustard, oil, salt and thyme in a bowl.
3. Gently mix into artichokes and heat on medium until hot.
Serve warm.

Each dosha reflects a distinct metabolic nature and describes strengths & weaknesses in bodily function, and how these affect energy levels, digestion, susceptibility to disease, and many other tendencies.
Your metabolic nature not only affects your physical characteristics, but also influences your mental thought patterns, confidence, and enthusiasm.
Ayurveda balances these metabolic strengths & weaknesses to support your body's vitality and prevent recurrent disease cycles. This support is a critical aid, especially in chronic or incurable disease conditions.
The 3 metabolic body types (doshas), are Catabolic (Vata), Metabolic (Pitta), and Anabolic (Kapha).
Through dosha, Ayurveda empowers people to identify metabolic imbalances early, break repetitive patterns of disease, and cultivate habits that support long-term vitality and well-being.
Ultimately, these metabolic patterns also provide a framework for understanding yourself, including body, mind, and spiritual tendencies.
