Summary

For more than 4,000 years, the people of India have looked to Ayurveda as a pathway to vibrant health and increased longevity. This ancient healing science is treasured as a gift from the Vedas (the world's oldest sacred texts). Ayurveda offers all people a practical way to achieve self-realization, a way that is based not on constantly changing data but on the eternal forces of the universe.

In Ayurveda, you will learn how to apply this fascinating system for total wellness to your own life. Your personal instructor in this audio study course is Dr. Vasant Lad, founder of the Ayurvedic Institute in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Drawing from his work in both India and America, Dr. Lad leads you to a clear understanding of Ayurveda and its life-enhancing powers. You will learn to see your mind, body, and spirit as a microcosm of the universe itself. The five elements present in all matter also exist in each individual. By learning the cosmic laws that govern these elements, you can strengthen and energize yourself - effectively and naturally.

From principles of self-healing and proper food combinations to the cosmic laws that unite all consciousness, Ayurveda makes it easy to explore this ancient healing art.

Ancient science

The principles are basic and simple, the applications are very wide including long term and the immediate term. In the words of Bruce Lee: research, try, adapt, adopt or discard, repeat..

Covers the basis understanding of Ayurveda

The content is amazing. All the basics you nwed to know concerning Ayurveda is covered in this book.
The author was also the speaker. I had to listen twice sometimes to understand because of his pronunciation. But that didn't bother me. The context was clear.

Amazing book on Ayurveda

I think this is one of the best books I have listened on Ayurveda until now. I really liked the chapter regarding the first stages of the desease and the last chapter that gives insight on pregnancy and breastfeeding.
