ayurveda may seem far too confusing and just not applicable to usual western life. This approach is really is different. The author brings a clarity to the subject which is so refreshing.
I am now, at last, clear on my predominating dosha and how to live and eat in order to keep myself balanced, healthy and happy. As i have long suspected, ayurveda really does work.
I also like the fact that there is lots of other information in the book - not just diet but loads of other lifestyle tips.It explains how sunlight , heat, air, watertogether with animal , vegetable and minaral substances effect our healing capacity.

I borrowed a copy from the library, now I want to have a personal copy. It is that useful. I have suspected a few things; this book reconfirms it and elaborate further. It introduces ayurveda system very well. I don't think I would have gotten as much if I were to start off by other books. Now I am looking to all books by this author.
