Klappentext

Ayurveda Cooking: Bringing Ancient Wisdom to Your Kitchen is not just a cookbook; it's an ultimate guide to transforming your relationship with food and yourself. In a world dominated by diet fads, calorie counting, and nutritional confusion, Ayurveda Cooking offers a return to clarity, balance, and purpose. Rooted in the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda and shaped by centuries of traditional healing, this book reveals how food can nourish not just the body, but the mind and spirit as well. Here, food is seen as energy, not math. Meals are measured not by carbs or trends, but by how they support your life force (prana), digestive fire (agni), and emotional well-being. You'll discover how even your most loved foods can either disturb or heal your balance and how to make simple, conscious changes that transform your kitchen into a space of daily healing and joy. This book will teach you: How to intuitively choose, prepare, and eat meals that align with your unique body type (dosha) Why timing, emotion, and seasonality matter just as much as ingredients How small tweaks to familiar recipes can turn them into powerful, healing allies The energetic purpose of spices and ingredients, and how each one affects your vitality
