A holistic guide to self-care based on traditional Ayurvedic wisdom–from the bestselling author of The Everyday Ayurveda Cookbook and Everyday Ayurveda Cooking for a Calm, Clear Mind. Learn to befriend your body and discover how best to care for yourself day by day and season by season with Ayurveda, India’s ancient holistic healing system. The Everyday Ayurveda Guide to Self-Care takes the ancient Ayurvedic principles and focuses on how to be an integrated, whole person while balancing the everyday demands of our modern world. Organised into three parts, the book opens with an introduction to Ayurveda, helping you to better understand your doshas and your basic Ayurvedic anatomy. The second section illuminates the art of self-care–exploring the daily routines and seasonal practices that can help prevent imbalance in both mind and body. Part three discusses the medicinal qualities of foods, spices, and herbs to support cleansing, rejuvenation, and management of common imbalances and ailments. From self-massage, oil pulling, and tongue scraping to breathing practices, meditation exercises, and eating with intention–this detailed guide will walk you through every step of important Ayurvedic practices that can be easily integrated into your existing self-care routine. You will also learn how to effectively use herbal routines, recipes, and rituals to achieve exactly what your body needs on a daily basis.
