Ancient is the new cutting edge--by combining the timeless principles of Ayurveda with modern scientific insight, we can achieve true mind-body wellness. Ulli Allmendinger, an herbalist and Ayurvedic healer, integrates traditional wisdom into daily life with practical guidance on topics like:

• Developing physical and mental resilience
• Determining your unique energy balance, or "prakruti"

At the heart of the book lies the Ayurvedic understanding of the three fundamental energies or "doshas"--Vata, Pitta, and Kapha--and their intricate interplay in governing the rhythms and functions of the body, mind, and spirit. Allmendinger, introduces a revolutionary new method of determining one's Ayurvedic constitutional type, or "prakruti," based on unchanging physical features rather than current imbalances or symptoms.
