When practicing Yoga, it might be helpful to know your Ayurveda Dosha:
A Vata type might have to practice more calmly than he is naturally inclined to
A Pitta type should make sure to include relaxation and meditation
A Kapha type should practice activating practices like Kapalabhati
Of course, if one is in one's natural Prakriti, one can follow the intuition. But if one is out of balance, then one should counteract the effects of the inclination.
