Ayurveda also describes how the body and mind become sick, as well as how they can be brought back into their normal healthy state. We have instruction manuals for our car, television, and computer. Whenever there is trouble with these technologies, we refer to the manual in order to fix them. Ayurveda provides an instruction manual for human beings. It explains that when we do not follow a rhythm or routine in our daily life, we will not be in harmony. The purpose of Ayurveda is to return us to our original, natural rhythms. Ayurveda is not complicated. It explains things such as how you should sleep and eat, when you should sleep and eat, when you should wake up, how to relax your mind, and how to exercise. Ayurveda explains when you should do things, as well as how and why, all in order to take advantage of the natural flows of nature, so you can align yourself to ride the current, instead of paddling upstream against the current. In this book, you will learn about what your body type is, a daily routine to care for yourself, and what foods are best for your type. The principles described are simple, easy to practice, and effective. Their effects can be seen within a few weeks. So get started on the path to happiness, getting to know, enjoy, and embrace your divine nature. Dr. Partap Chauhan is an author, public speaker, TV personality and master Ayurvedic physician.
