Book Description

Ayurveda is an ancient Indian holistic healing system that has been practiced for thousands of years. It aims to create balance in the body and mind through proper diet, lifestyle, herbal remedies and spiritual practices. This cookbook brings the wisdom of Ayurveda straight to your kitchen with a collection of easy, delicious recipes tailored to nourish each dosha or mind-body type. According to Ayurveda, we all have a unique combination of three doshas - vata, pitta and kapha. Vata governs movement in the body and is balanced by grounding routines. Pitta oversees transformation through digestion and metabolism and is balanced by cooling activities. Kapha provides structure and stability and is balanced by stimulating actions. When our doshas are balanced, we feel healthy and energized. When they are imbalanced, we are more prone to disease. This book contains recipes and meal plans to balance each dosha. For vata, you will find grounding dishes like Dahi Aloo, Moong Dal Khichdi, Sweet Potato Mash and Warming Chai. Cooling foods like Cucumber Raita, Coconut Rice, Kitchari and Rose Lassi help calm excess pitta. To balance kapha, the book offers light and stimulating recipes like Detox Dal, Ginger Tea, Quinoa Upma and Honey Lemonade. In addition, there are recipes and tips for eating with the seasons, cleansing routines, using Ayurvedic superfoods like turmeric, as well as special sections on breakfasts, snacks, desserts, and remedies. Everything has been designed keeping in mind the unique needs of each dosha. Cook your way to greater balance and vitality with timeless wisdom from the ancient science of Ayurveda!

Book Description

Sacred & Delicious is an award-winning vegetarian cookbook, a primer on Ayurveda (India’s ancient wellness system), and a gorgeous food memoir that celebrates the healing power of food. Author Lisa Mitchell writes inspiring and clear prose about the power of the Ayurvedic system to sustain good health and reverse chronic health problems, recounting her own recovery. The book includes 108 recipes and more than 60 full-page color photos. Most of the dishes include vegan options, and all but two are gluten-free. Only ten of the recipes reflect traditional Indian cooking. The rest demonstrate how to apply the balancing principles of Ayurveda and the creative (yet subtle) use of spices to modern Western cuisines that many Westerners prefer. Mitchell shares the Vedic perspective on why food is sacred and how cooks can bring a sacred intention to their kitchen labors to approach food preparation as spiritual practice. Traditional blessings for food from various cultures are sprinkled throughout the book. In April 2019, Sacred & Delicious won silver medals in two prestigious book industry awards competitions: the IBPA Benjamin Franklin Awards (in the Body, Mind, Spirit category) and the Nautilus Awards (in the Food, Cooking, and Healthy Eating category). It also won the cookbook category in the Body, Mind, Spirit Book Awards and is a finalist in the Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Awards (to be announced in June).

Book Description

The Ayurveda Vegan Kitchen offers people the opportunity to follow an Ayuvedic diet without the use animal products. Ayurveda is a holistic healing system developed in ancient India to increase an understanding of the human body, mind, and spirit. It organizes the elements of ether, air, fire, water, and earth into three body types, or doshas. Although each person is unique, one of these doshas will predominate their constitution and will need to be balanced on a regular basis. Dairy products are important foods in traditional Ayurveda; however, for every milk-based food that Ayurvedic healers revere, there is an equally effective whole-food, vegan alternative. Following the same nutritional principles as traditional Ayurveda, Talya created over 120 delicious recipes that provide healing flavors and harmony to the mind and spirit. Easy-to-follow symbols on each recipe page show how the unique chemistry of that recipe can be used to balance the body'’s constitution. Since a healthy digestive system is at the core of ayurvedic medicine, these recipes will keep you on track and in good health.
