Ayurveda and the Mind – The healing of consciousness by Dr. David Frawley is one of the foundational texts of adopting an ayurvedic lifestyle. This book is a revolution in itself in seeing that the mind too can be affected and healed by the three doshas – vata, pita and kapha. Dr. Frawley’s also adopts the gunas of Prakriti for explaining the behaviour of the mind at Rajas, Tamas and Sattva. This is a book which gives authentic scriptural guidance on developing a balanced lifestyle. The importance of Ayurveda for healing the body based on traditional texts has been covered in many books, but this is a landmark book in the field of Ayurveda and the mind. Indian traditions placed a lot of importance on sattvic, balanced psychology as the basis of yoga. The yamas and niyamas of Patanjali are the start of Ayurveda and the Mind.
