Ayurveda means the science of life and has been used in India for thousands of years to bring the body into a healthy and vitalized state of balance. The treatments are individualized to a person’s unique constitution, with the goal to reconnect with the natural cycles that surround us. John Douillard introduces how Ayurveda works with the cycles of the seasons and the hours of each day to bring less stress to our systems and achieve a calm and nourished body. The effects of food within these natural cycles is also touched upon, along with the connection to the sister science of yoga.

I"ve tried to play this several different times. At around the 56 second mark each time, it stops playing. The problems are similar to the problems listed by the person who wrote in 3 months ago.

I learned a lot about Ayurveda and natural cycles. I really recommend listening to this one first and then listen to Dr. Douillard's other DVD's. It makes it plain and in easy to understand explanations.

Great, but I'm still a tad lost, June 24, 2012

This video is chock full of great information for the beginner just starting out with ayurveda as an alternative medicine. I only have my GaiamTV membership so I didn't get the booklet that came with the DVD to determine my body type. If there were some way to determine that with this video it'd definitely be a 5 star! Thanks for this video!
