Book Description

Publication Date: May 2002

Ayurveda is the oldest form of healthcare recognised by the World Health Organisation. However, until now, for many of us in the West it wasn't relevant to our way of life, being governed by an Indian approach to diet, climate and physiology. But Home Ayurveda Spa changes that. Taking the fundamental principles of European Ayurveda which have been adapted for Westerners, this book shows you how to create tailored Body, Food and Mind Spa programs within the comfort of your own home as well as Spa-based routines for your daily life. The basics are simple. Once you have discovered your body type, you can learn how to tailor your diet, exercise, relaxation and lifestyle specifically to you. * Learn the most effective detox * Eat optimum foods * Choose the perfect exercise * Treat yourself with yoga and massage * Achieve mental and spiritual harmony
