Unlock Optimal Wellness: A Comprehensive Mind and Body Guide

Jackied D.: This book is good. Its complex and dry, yet really interesting and educational. If you can get past Deepaks dry monotone reading, you're going to enjoy it. It definitely gets deep into science and goes down a few rabbit holes. I relisten to many parts which is easier than ready and trying to retain it all or digest what he's trying to convey. Still worth it.

Sofia Ortiz: Really recommend this book for anyone who's looking for better health, or a solution to any physical or mental problem they're trying to work through. It gave me a whole new perspective on medicine; how we do have a say on our sicknesses, what can we do to get better through different actions like keeping an eye on what we're feeding ourselves: not only food, but thoughts.

Amanda: This book, paired with Yoga & Ayurveda by David Frawley completely transformed the way I understand, and relate to, my health and well-being. Deepak Chopra is brilliant. The book is easy to understand (the opposite of Yoga & Ayurveda) and he gives practical advice on how to bring balance to your doshas. He sticks to words that most readers are familiar with, rather than incorporating lots of sanskrit.

Anyone interested in learning how you can manage your own health and well-being should read this book.

The Thinker: This book is a valuable introduction to Ayurveda, a system for improving one's health and promoting longevity. Many of the ideas in this book are quite different from what I had previously learned and believed. But because I had many years of positive experiences with Transcendental Meditation, I decided to consider these ideas and try them. Experience has shown me that the ideas in this book are phenomenally effective.

I was prompted to write this review in response to some skeptical comments posted by other reviewers. Some reviewers see this book as the author's attempt to profitably sell other products and services. I do not believe this is the case. If valuable treatments and techniques can only be learned through personal instruction, it is helpful to know that these treatments and techniques exist, and I do not sense that the author is trying to monopolize the availability of these treatments and techniques; he merely wants people to know about them. I'm sure Dr. Chopra is financially independent and not merely advertising his services. In addition, I have heard and read so much good information from Dr. Chopra that I am convinced he is sincere.

D. S. Tait: This book was recommended (prescribed) by Mary Jo Cravatta, my ayurvedic physician. The book covers a lot of ground, from the basics of ayurveda, to practical elements such as diet and basic yoga exercises, abhyanga daily massage, and the ever-important daily routine. The book has been invaluable in helping me understand my specific imbalance, and how to practically address this. I have made phenomenal improvements with my digestive problems and numerous other ailments. Ayurveda is not about a quick fix, like fixing a broken machine. It addresses the whole body as, well, an ecosystem, taking account of environment, physical body, mental body, and spiritual body. I highly recommend this book to anyone with a persistent chronic disease. You will discover that the body is always trying to maintain balance & equilibrium with its environment, like all things in nature. It is the lifestyle, habits, and daily choices that brings us out of balance over time.
