Effortless Ayurvedic Living
Dr. Helen Thomas Effortless Ayurvedic Living
End your confusion over how to live an Ayurvedic lifestyle. This simple-to-follow guide was created by Dr. Helen Thomas, a Western woman, written for Western readers.
* Dr. Helen’s Dosha Test: After twenty years of assessing the doshas of thousands of men, women and children, Dr. Helen created a simple quiz anyone can use. Compare the results you get to other dosha tests you’ve taken in the past. You may discover you weren’t quite what you thought you were.
* Balance Your Prakruti, Effortlessly: Dr. Helen presents lifestyle changes that fall into the natural rhythm and needs of your constitution. You need not strain with the various physical, mental and spiritual practices you’ll discover in this volume.
This bi weekly, podcast from Dr. Helen Thomas will help you make Ayurveda a transforming part of your life. With so many negative influences goading us to eat wrongly, forgo exercise and deplete our minds in front of the TV… you need as much inspiration as you can get…
* Ayurvedic Recipes from Dr. Helen’s Kitchen: Master the art of using Indian spices to harmonize your doshas, delight your taste buds and calm your mind.
* India Unveiled: Hear about Dr. Helen’s travels to this ancient land — the wisdom and experience she has collected from healers, swamis, and simple householders.
* Ancient Science, Modern Living: Dr. Helen will help you apply Ayurveda to the challenges and advantages of our modern world. Not only will issues acknowledge the effects of current seasonal changes upon us, but also major news events, scientific discoveries and 21st century trends.
In addition to the ezine, you’ll receive a video blog (vlog) from Dr. Helen at her clinic in Santa Rosa, California.
Due to the amount of email Dr. Helen receives, she can’t answer individual questions. Nonetheless, each week she’ll answer a few questions.
Hearing and seeing Dr. Helen talk really conveys her passion for this science of health and longevity.
Ayurveda would not necessarily suggest the same treatments and lifestyle changes to you, as it would to anybody else. It recognizes that three forces — the doshas — influence all creation. Your body and mind manifest a unique proportion of these doshas.
Ayurveda treats everybody different. Different foods, different herbs, different smells, different surroundings will be more beneficial for you than for others. There is no one-size fits all to life.
With Ayurveda you are getting several modalities in ONE.

Dear Friend of Ayurveda,
Dr. Helen Thomas, Ayurvedic Practitioner – IF you’ve come to this podcast, it’s likely because you’ve discovered, through painful trial and error, that life isn’t simple.
Instead, this is a dynamic and challenging adventure we have all found ourselves in. It’s a struggle for true happiness, lasting health and a fulfilling purpose.
This battle must be fought on all levels: physical, mental, social, emotional, spiritual. It’s rare to find a way that embraces this truly holistic approach to life.
I didn’t think such a path existed
until I discovered Ayurveda
Up until 1987, I was a practicing chiropractor. I helped relieve pain and brought healing to many of my patients. Sometimes long term, oftentimes only temporarily. My quest for a medicinal science that brought permanent, three-fold healing to the body, mind and soul, lead me to this ancient way of living.
Similar desires for a true “art of living” has brought you to Ayurveda as well.
Maybe this podcst is your first introduction to the science… More likely you have already dived into this rich system of healing. Possibly through the books and CDs of my teacher Deepak Chopra.
Testimonial
Because Ayurveda is so all-encompassing,
it can easily become complex without a guide…
You know that this science holds the answer to a stronger body, focused mind and greater spiritual understanding. Yet, you haven’t been able to fully unravel your doshas or fully experience the possibilities of Ayurveda in your life.
For that reason, I wrote Effortless Ayurvedic Living. I wanted to create a reference that any westerner could read, understand and apply to their life.
This volume is the product of over a decade of study, practice and apprenticeship here and in India. It originally sold for in bookstores across the United States and Canada.
Today, I want to give to you all, go to my site www.effortlessayurvedicliving.com life-transforming pages for FREE
But that’s not enough…
I know that many people who download and read a copy, may still never apply these teachings. They may want to. They know they need to. They’d be so much happier if they did. But, it’s not going to happen.
Unless… we can keep in contact. For that reason my 2008 New Year’s resolution is to begin broadcasting The Joyful Ayurvedic Living Ezine.

And I won’t stop there…
I’ll also be doing free, live teleseminars on specific subjects of Ayurvedic living, at least every other month.
