The Ayurvedic Self-Care Handbook is insightful, inspiring, and one that I plan to turn to for guidance throughout the years to come. I graduated as a Registered Nurse from a traditional Bachelors of Science Nursing program at a University. In school I learned a lot of health and medical information but did not learn very much about Ayurvedic medicine as it is related to nature and not clinically based. However, it has always been something that fascinated me, and I have seen friends of mine benefit substantially from the practice. I went into this book with an open mind knowing that it would not always align with the medical instruction I received in school, but could be just as valuable in its own right. Thus, I wholeheartedly enjoyed gaining knowledge about Ayurvedic philosophies and exploring what I can implement in my life in order to experience optimal health and happiness. A wonderful element of this book is that is poses engaging “self-study” questions throughout the chapters that help the reader reflect on the information and create a deeper connection to the text. I recommend this book to anyone desiring to discover how to unlock an alternative realm of health promotion that focuses on nature and the individual person rather than mainstream practice. If you want to gain balance in life and feel good, then this book is for you.

This book is very insightful, very informative, and easily digestible. I love that this book lays out ways to become healthier and offers very precise explanations and details of how to achieve that. This is a good intro book on the art of Ayurvedic philosophies and self-care.

Ayurveda is considered the Yoga's sister science which is the study of the body. The book is an A to Z Reference book about Ayurveda and helpful for any Ayurvedic practitioner. Sarah introduces the origins and theory of this 5000 years practice. Then, Sarah explains the root of common life's discomforts based on the three types of Doshas. And finally, she shares meaningful rituals to add to our lives. The rituals are well explained and she shares useful advice to how incorporate them in our busy lives. More over, she added a helpful glossaries about the plants, terminology and more practical information.
