Written with sincere effort to educate and spread Ayurvedic knowledge to other women, this is a book I come back to again and again. A thorough and easy-to-read guide for women on all levels of the mind, body and emotions. This book is written clearly and compassionately by women, and it surpasses all other Ayurvedic books in its accessibility to the reader. No "shoulds" or finger-pointing here. Just clear explanations and a joy to read. I use this book as an excellent reference, as well as a source of comfort and validation in my own personal experiences as a woman.

this book is a wonderful treatise on health and wholeness - for BOTH sexes. unlike much of modern medicine, it addresses not only the health and well-being of the body but the essential link with the emotions and spirit, through a detailed and easy to understand explanation of the principles of the ancient (and very current) science of Ayurveda.

a MUST read for anyone interested in health and wholeness (ie., everyone)

A Woman's Best Medicine is one of the most uplifting and important books I have ever read.I read it some years ago and have just reviewed it which prompted me to buy several more copies to hand out on loan, to women I care about. It's easy to read, easy to follow and I wish all women had a copy! I have already begun to benefit healthwise, both in a physical sense and in an emotional one, from implementing some of the deeply wise but essentially simple advice. Bless the author.

I love this book and as a health educator, have recommended it for years. If offers a wealth of practical ayurvedic knowledge to help women make intelligent health choices.

The book came to me in a very good condition. The seller did not promise to much. I started reading right away and I do think that this is a book you should read if you want to get another point of view about life and how you can change it for your best. A really intressting way of looking at different aspects of life and a perfect conection to the field of Yoga.

Love this book. I just chanced upon it, bought it without many reviews. I was feeling really low when I bought this esp. because my health was suffering. This book and in general ayurveda talks about wholeness and balance. This is a tough subject and hard to comprehend and extremely vast. However, this book handles the subject well and presents a lot of information in a concise and friendly manner. This is the reason why I give it a five star. I keep referring to it each time I have a problem. Yes, I do think that most of the guidelines are for both sexes.

This began to read like a lengthy advertisement for TM classes (available from a teacher near you) backed up with anecdotal evidence and anonymous medical studies (or studies done by TM-friendly physicians) Caveat emptor.

This book has given me so much, not only health advice, but it has also taught me more about life.
