Eat delicious seasonal food, balance the body, and heal the gut with simplified, traditional Ayurvedic wisdom and over 100 simple recipes designed to get you cooking in the kitchen. Even the simplest Ayurveda practices complement Western medicine because of their focus on righting imbalance before it creates disease. Keeping digestion on track is the key to health in Ayurveda, and eating natural, homemade foods in accordance with personal constitution and changes in environment is often all that is needed to bring a body back into balance. The Everyday Ayurveda Cookbook inspires yogis and nonyogis alike to get into the kitchen and explore this time-honored system of seasonal eating for health and nourishment. Ditching processed food and learning to eat well at home are the first steps you can take to relieving imbalance. The Everyday Ayurveda Cookbook removes many of the obstacles by showing you how straightforward and accessible preparing your own delicious, seasonal meals can be. Season by season, learn how the changing weather and qualities in your environment both mirror and influence your body and appetite. Lifestyle advice on meal planning, self-care regimens, and how to ensure health during the change of seasons is included throughout. And the no-fuss recipes will get you eager to cook. To expand your cooking repertoire, you'll also learn foundational "everyday" recipes that can be adapted to any season and any dosha: once you understand the blueprint of a basic dish, you can recreate it in your kitchen year-round, using seasonal produce, grains, and flavors for health and nourishment.

As per Ayurveda it's 6 seasons
Honestly I wanted to give 5 star.. As per Ayurveda there are 6 seasons, but this book speaks about 4 seasons .. It might be good for people baded outside Bharat..

This book is chock-full of appetizing recipes inspired by historically-proven, sound Ayurvedic principles. It bursts at the seams with wisdom about foods, your individual body, and the unique interactions between the two, all presented in concise and easy-to-read text. Suffer from uncomfortable digestive symptoms or ineffective unnatural medical remedies no longer!

Your family and friends will devour them along with you. You'll never again run out of ideas on how to eat the way humans are meant to eat.

I would buy it again
I’m studying Ayurveda and I was looking for a book to inspire me in the kitchen. I recently got this book and I’m finding it very useful! The red pumpkin dhal is delicious!! I like how the book is divided in everyday recipes and seasonal recipes. I would buy it again!

Disappointed
This cookbook wasn’t what I was expecting. Many of the Ayurvedic recipes have food combinations that people with weak agni (digestion) would struggle with. Nice coffee table book but I can’t see myself making any of the recipes or sharing them with clients.

A great introduction to Ayurveda and nice recipes
The introduction to Ayurveda opened up a whole world of possibility that has literally changed my life. This book is beautifully presented and laid out in seasons too. I have cooked around 8-10 recipes from this book from kitchari to teas and sweet treats - without the crap! This book will remain a firm go-to.
