This book is essentially a complete users manual on how to apply essential oils in a manner consistent with Ayurvedic healing. From start to finish this book radiates sincerity and hands on knowledge. We immediately believe that the authors are not simply talking the talk but are walking the talk.
The book opens with an introduction to Ayurveda, including the 5 elements, 3 doshas and 6 tastes. The 15 subdoshas are described along with a description of typical symptoms of imbalances and essential oils that balance those doshas. The authors provide a novel analysis of the effects of essential oils using two of the three taste polarities:1) hot-cold and 2)wet-dry. This allows them to classify the essential oils in terms of their effects on the doshas.
The chapters describing the history and manufacture of essential oils are informative and full of interesting anedotes.
Other useful features include: how to apply essential oils with compress, in the bath, inhalation etc.: methods on how to choose essentials oils; a complete list of herbs and their healing attributes; a list of Ayurvedic healing centers; a list of suppliers of essential oils; and references to explore further the concepts and methods presented.
Anyone interested in a practical introduction to Ayurveda, Aromatherapy or both is likely to benefit from a study of this book. (1/10/2000).

My husband and I spent 6 months in India studying Ayurveda medicine and we highly recommend this book. Very well done and simple enough for the lay person to understand. Make sure you use only medical grade oils!!! I use essential three
[...] (they are medical grade and a much better price than Young Living) If you are serious about healing and preventive medicine this is a must read.

Essential Oils are said to be mans’ first medicine. Caution: Use only pure oils. I use and recommend Young Living Oils.

This book is written so well. It explains Ayurveda in such a concise clear way. The first time I really understand it. I cannot put the book down. Haven’t finished it yet but it has become my ‘bible’! I have 2 friends who have it as well and feel the same way. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

Light and Bryan Miller have a unique and original view of aromatherapy. I highly recommend their work, and this book. I have studied with them in person and read this book as part of their Ayurveda Correspondence Course, which has an aromatherapy component.
This book is very empowering. The recipes and formulas are awesome, and the connection between aromatherapy and ayurveda makes a stronger case for the therapeutic aspect.
