Summary

Yoga and Ayurveda together form a complete approach for optimal health, vitality, and higher awareness. Yoga & Ayurveda reveals to us the secret powers of the body, breath, senses, mind, and chakras. More importantly, it unfolds transformational methods to work on them through diet, herbs, asana, pranayama, and meditation. This is the first audiobook published in the West on these two extraordinary subjects and their interface. It has the power to change the lives of those who listen to and apply it.

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

Very informative and helpful

I enjoyed this book. I found is useful to picture where all schools of thought came from. From Gyan to Bhakti yoga and the connection to elements and Ayurveda. Some pronunciation was difficult to understand as it’s from Hindi /Sanskrit to English. However, overall recommend it and will listen again.

Promising Start but Ultimately Disappointing

I listened to the audio version of this book and found the narration clear and easy to follow. I enjoyed how the explanation of the different types of yoga and the spiritual beliefs that go with them. Though I won't lie I did get a little lost from time to time.

One aspect which I disliked can be summarised as such, "true followers should be careful to avoid to much or bad sex.' Then we moved on to another topic. Ok, so what is too much once a day? Once a week? Once a year? And what is 'bad' sex? Do they mean unpleasurable sex? Non-consenting? Sex in certain positions or locations? Or are they referring to certain types of relationships? Eg LGBT+ or interracial? If your going to mention something so decisive and complicated you need to be clear on what you mean. If you don't your work will given meanings, you don't mean by those who don't understand you. And if your scaried of upsetting people then don't mention it at all. What's happened here is (in my opinion) the worse of both worlds.

Moving on, I find it concerning that they state as fact that chronic diseases and other health conditions are caused by problem with your spiritual flow/system. They don't mention going to actual doctor or pharmacist for these problem. The way this section is written leaves you with the impression that these things can only be caused by a spiritual means and can therefore only be helped with spiritual treatment. There isn't even a disclaimer given.
