Publisher's Summary

Ayurveda is a profound science with wisdom spanning so wide that it can be difficult to know exactly where to begin. As an Ayurvedic consultant, Susan Weis-Bohlen helps those who are new to Ayurveda address this exact issue. In Ayurveda Beginner's Guide, Susan explains the holistic principles behind Ayurveda, and offers gentle guidance for incorporating its restorative practices in your everyday life.

Designed with the newcomer in mind, Ayurveda Beginner's Guide presents a concise overview of Ayurveda that covers its historical roots, concepts, and various healing methods; a three-week Ayurveda plan for beginners to introduce Ayurvedic concepts into one's lifestyle gently and practically; a wide range of Ayurveda techniques such as recipes, yoga, aromatherapy, meditation, seasonal cleanses, and more; and a simple dosha quiz and in-depth descriptions of each dosha.

Ayurveda Beginner's Guide will teach you how to unlock the transformative powers of Ayurveda and move forward in your journey toward a healthier state of mind, body, and spirit.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

it was ok

It was hard to follow and it probably would have been better in paper than audio as there are some recipes in it that she just reads the ingredients in it which is boring to hear.

Very interesting and informative

Great book. I love the clear description of these Ayurvedic traditions. It was well read. I especially like the end chapters which give you home remedy recipes.

Pretty shallow explanations

And all those recipes, I just think this is not a book made for audio. I lost my patience when I realised I’m just listening to recipe after recipe and it’s not working in audio format.

Not audiobook friendly

Lots of recipes, yoga poses, etc. made this not ideal for audio format. Would be better to read a hardcopy.

Extremely interesting and informative book. Definitely would be more useful in a paper version, so will be ordering it that way.

A great introduction for a beginner like me

A great introduction for a beginner like me.
Really useful information and well presented. Well explained and easy enough to follow and understand.
I did read the lower ratings criticising the number of long recipes which are described in the audio book. This can be a bit annoying to be fair, but you do get a PDF so you can skip forward if you like.
Definitely a lot of useful information and practices to try. I think this is a really good beginners guide.

Not for Audible

Good info but not for listening since it contains recipes and such. Better to read hardcover
