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 rhythym 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.
