Ayurveda and Panchakarma

Rating:
Summary: Easy to understand and to the point....
Review: Dr. Joshi has done a great job with this book. The principles of Ayurveda are clearly presented in a way you can identify with. Many other books are over cumbersome and difficult to comprehend or apply to your life. Joshi shares home remedies as well as a succinct description fo Pancha Karma. If we all did this deep cleansing/nourishing rejuvenation program on a regular basis we would not only improve our quality of life but our cash flow as well, without the abundance of prescriptions masking the real source of dis---ease. Thanks Dr. Joshi for sharing the ancient knowledge of Ayurveda.

Review: I love this book! It clearly explains aspects of Ayurveda that I never could understand before. For example the difference between Agni & Pitta, is usually explained in a confusing way in other books, but here it totally makes sense. Dr. Joshi explains concepts using real-life examples drawn from his years of clinical experience, with real people/clients. It get the feel that he knows what he is talking about, which is something I don't find with many of the other books. Most of the other books on Ayurveda that I have read seem to be written by folks that are more students of Ayurveda, rather than practioners with years of clinical experience. For me I want to know that suggestions work in the Real World, with real people.
If you want want a great intro to Ayurveda you can't go wrong with this book.
