Book Description
This book is a profound but practical testament to the healing power
of balanced living and shows how Ayurveda's ancient principles of health
can help you achieve the highest levels of physical, emotional, and spiritual
well-being. Tiwari provides a thorough profile of the seven body types
and the foods best suited to each. Her book is the first to include a complete
discussion of the personality or psychospiritual attributes of the Ayurvedic
body types, as well as food charts, seasonal menus, and recommended daily
routines for each type. A chapter on sadhanas focuses on activities of
the hearth, home, garden, and community that activate our "cognitive memory"
of right living. An extensive section of uncomplicated recipes, keyed to
the body types, and another on home remedies help provide a painless transition
to a healthier and more fulfilling lifestyle.
