ABOUT THIS BOOK

Life in the urban jungle has taken us away from nature, with no time left for ourselves. An emphasis purely on survival is making us miserable. It is now time to reconnect with our Vedic roots and focus on enjoying uninterrupted physical and mental happiness with lasting contentment.

Urban Ayurveda is a comprehensive guide to understanding Ayurveda, the science of life. This book reveals the wisdom of applied Ayurveda in the urban paradigm—simple, practical and sustainable ideas for creating a balanced life. It allows you to combine Ayurveda’s age-old traditions with modern concepts of wellness.

A crisp account from a practising Ayurveda physician, Dr Tanya Malhotra offers personal anecdotes, patient case studies, cooking techniques and recipes for the urban kitchen. From seasonal Ayurveda to Ayurveda for students and working professionals, this book is your ultimate guide to a glorious life.
