Publisher: Red Wheel/Weiser
Heard about Ayurveda, but don`t know what it`s about? Are
you confused by other books on the subject? Nave you looked
into other forms of alternative healing or lifestyle and been put
off by strict regimens of diet, exercise, and even abstinence?
Everybody is different, and Atreya, using ayruvedic techniques,
teaches you how to recognize your own body `type` and what
you can do to maintain healthy balance in your life. Enjoy the
foods and activities you always have -- using Ayurveda, you will
finally understand how they affect you and what you can do to
balance the good with the bad. Atreya loves life, has a sense of
humor, loves to teach, and in this book provides an accessible
introduction to Ayurveda by demystifying the language and
providing humorous illustrations. He teaches how Ayurveda
can help you handle your lifestyle -- he even discusses sexuality,
something many healers never mention.
In Practical Ayurveda, Atreya:
* Provides an easy-to-use constitutional test for determining
your own ayurvedic humors, along with useful methods for
self-diagnosis and balancing the humors. He also includes
special diets and cures for dozens of ailments.
* Discusses the health benefits of good sexual relationships.
He dispels the myth that abstinence is required to attain pure
consciousness and explains why repressing sexuality cuts off
prana, which in turn affects our relationship to life itself.
* Clarifies the spiritual principles behind Ayurveda, and
provides a broad and flexible perspective on this ancient
healing system.
All of which combine to unlock ayurvedic `secrets` to physical,
sexual, and spiritual health!
