At the heart of Ayurveda is the intimate connection between our individual body constitution, our doshas, and the five essential elements of mother nature - ether, air, fire, water, and earth; maintaining a balance among these elements is the key to our physical and spiritual well-being.
Because Ayurveda considers food an integral part of its healing process, some of the oldest and most time-tested principles of healthy eating originated in it.
The book introduces you to eating differently according to the season. A simple twelve-day detox menu to cleanse the body of toxins and improve the absorption of nutrients is also included. |
