Overview for Prakriti: Your Ayurvedic Constitution

Ayurveda, the healing science of India is introduced by Dr. Robert Svoboda in Prakriti: Your Ayurvedic Constitution. The healing science of Ayurveda is based totally upon the knowledge of “prakriti”, the individual constitution. If every individual knows his own constitution, then one can understand, for instance, what is a good diet and style of life for oneself. This book is a partial exposition of author’s own experience. It begins with an introduction to the fundamentals of the ayurvedic worldview and shows how these principles determine constitutional types. It proceeds to consider the effects of food on constitution, the inner nature of nutrition, and good habits for establishing and preserving health. The subject matter then strays into topics that explore the forces that bind body, mind and spirit together, concentrating an ahamkara and the nature of individual identity. The book introduces Ayurveda’s explanation of disease causation, and presents examples of the Ayurvedic approach to disease management and rejuvenation, including some esoteric methods of self-balance.
