DESCRIPTION:
"One of the easiest to understand books on Ayurveda I've read" according to Cathy_H. As a registered yoga teacher, much of my advanced studies have touched on Ayurveda, but no matter how many books I've read, I kept feeling that I was missing the ability to connect it to my life. I found this book through a Google search on "why Pittas gain weight" and read a paragraph that finally connected me with Ayurveda in ways I could understand. The author takes complex concepts and makes them understandable to Westerners like me. Not only that, but the book has shifted the way I look at food and caring for myself.
