Ayurvedic Yoga Therapy
Sequences of Vinyasas and pranayama, attuning to the rhymthm and dosha balance of each individual
One of the greatest contributions of Ayurveda to true health is the understanding of individual constitution - what balances one person unbalances another. By marrying the sister sciences of yoga and Ayurveda, Mukunda steers away from an increasing tendency to 'medicalize' yoga therapy. Instead of offering prescriptive recommendations for specific medical diagnoses, he presents sequences of Vinyasa and pranayama suited to the various Ayurvedic body types. Yoga therapists and practitioners using this book can access a deeper level of preventative self-care, flowing in harmony with the seasons and attuning to the rhythm and balance of each individual. Enlivened by stories and wisdom teachings, "Ayurvedic Yoga Therapy" provides food for body, soul and spirit, guiding practitioners towards fulfillment of their highest potential well being.
"Ayurvedic Yoga Therapy is one of the most important new books on how these two profound sister sciences can be integrated in the modern context. The book presents a compelling model of Yoga Therapy that is bound to become much more significant, as Yoga moves beyond a physical therapy to a complete system of medicine, health and well-being for body, mind an spirit." Dr David Frawley (Pandit Vamadeva Shastri), Author, Yoga and Ayurveda
"This long-awaited book has merged the power of yoga and the healing potential of ayurveda into a new science called Ayurvedic Yoga Therapy. It is a must-read!" Dr John Douillard, Author of Body, Mind and Sport and The 3-Season diet.
