Learn how the time-honoured Indian tradition of Ayurveda can transform your health and well-being.
Dating back many thousands of years, Ayurveda is the traditional health system of India which is said "to add years to your life and life to your years". Ayurveda simply means "Knowledge of Life", and is the oldest holistic, practical system which aims to bring balance to everyone's physical, mental and spiritual life. Written by one of the UK's leading practitioners, 'Live Better: Ayurveda' guides the reader through this history of Ayurveda and puts the context of this complete medical system into a modern context in chapter one.
In chapter two practical advice is given on how to create improved health and balance using Ayurveda principles of the three doshes (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha) in order to enhance your mind and body and balance your mental and spiritual health. We either improve of deteriorate with time and so chapter three gives the understanding of how to ride successfully the passing tides of time. Both the necessity and the means to nourish mind and body are elaborated in chapter four. Deep insight and advice on mental and spiritual health conclude the book in chapter five.
Ayurveda is holistic medicine at its best and this book shows how its principles are simple and practical to use.
