Paperback: 390 pages Size (in inches): 9 x 6. Publisher: Harmony; Revised & Updated edition (February 20, 2001) ISBN: 0609806947 This book is a practical guide to harness the healing power of the mind. This book describes how to apply the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda to everyday life and is a great introduction to Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of healing Ayurveda tells us that freedom from sickness depends on contacting our own awareness, bringing it into balance, and then extending that balance to the body. Describes how breakthroughs in physics and medicine were underscoring the validity of a 5,000 -year-old medical system from ancient India known as Ayurveda (“the knowledge of life span” in Sanskrit). Although we experience our bodies as solid, they are in fact more like fires that are constantly being consumed and renewed. We grow new stomach lining every five days, for instance. Our skin is new every five weeks. Each year, fully 98 percent of the total number of atoms in our bodies is replaced. Ayurveda gives us the tools to intervene at the quantum level, where we are being created anew each day. Ayurveda tells us that freedom from sickness depends on contacting our own awareness, bringing it into balance, and then extending that balance to the body. Perfect Health provides a complete step-by-step program of mind body medicine tailored to individual needs. A quiz identifies the reader’s mind body type: thin, restless Vata; enterprising, efficient Pitta; tranquil, steady Kapha; or any combination of these three. This body type becomes the basis for a specific Ayurvedic program of diet, stress reduction, neuromuscular integration, exercise and daily routines. the result is a total plan, tailor-made for each individual, to reestablish the body’s essential balance with nature; to strengthen the mind body connection; and to use the power of quantum healing to transcend the ordinary limitations of disease and aging—in short, for achieving Perfect health. This book is divided into three sections: A Place Called Perfect Health, the Quantum Mechanical Human Body and Living in Tune with Nature. Part I, A Place Called Perfect Health, explains the various body types. Part II, The Quantum Mechanical Body, explains the channels of healing via meditation, healing sounds, music and aromatherapy.
