Product Description
A decade ago, Deepak Chopra, M.D., wrote Perfect Health, the first practical guide to harnessing the healing power of the mind, which became a national bestseller. The book described how breakthroughs in physics and medicine were underscoring the validity of a 5,000-year-old medical system from ancient India known as Ayurveda (“the knowledge of life span” in Sanskrit). Perfect Health went on to describe how to apply the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda to everyday life. I… More >>
Perfect Health: The Complete Mind/Body Guide, Revised and Updated Edition
I’ve actually tried many of the methods in the book without success. If you’d like to gain 10-20 lbs, the listing of food will work fine. To date, have you seen the author at one of his lectures? He’s a little on the heavy side.

Reading Perfect Health again to reaffirm my desire to get healthy from the inside out. Having a little more trouble integrating the mind-body connection than I anticipated. I know what needs to be done and why. Thought I could navigate this and be in a better place to share now but many things happened that kept me from accomplishing my goal. I’ve reread and absorbed all of the information on the doshas and this is very important, I see that being a kapha dosha that I need to do the exact opposite of what I’m currently doing to start this journey to Perfect Health. I have integrated the quantum field information and digested it completely. Now I see that the recent loss of my Mother has all of my attention on processing my feelings, thoughts and emotions and although I am grieving well for my Mother because I know we are still together in a new relationship, I am still experiencing a disturbance between what my mind knows to be true and what my earthly memories are and it seems I must not go back and forth challeging my minds acceptance for in this struggle back and forth in my reality I see that my body is suffering terribly. I have realized this and now am getting back on track in accepting this new place where I know my Mother lives. If my daily routine had been healthy during my Mothers transition I would have been in a much better place phyically now but habits and daily routines are hard to adjust it seems. Small changes of choices in eating and attention and awareness to what I am doing are definitely helpful. Walking is something I have started to do in a small way and must continue this to realize what my mind perceives I will look like when I accomplish this. So my mind is way ahead of my body on this and realizing and doing are two different things I find. So I will reread Perfect Health and if I can accomplish my vision I will let you know how I accomplished this…wish me luck!

It is an amazing book. Simple and well understood language is been used. It consists a possible solution for the many of us who seek an answer to the stressfull way we all live today. It suggests healing methods for the whole human existance: body, mind and spirit.

This was a good read if you want to learn about the Ayurvedic health principles. If that is what you are looking for, then this is the book for you. My disappointment was in the title. I expected more of Quantum Healing. I still plan on reading more Deepak, but wish I had known that this book was strictly Ayurvedic methodology only.

Brilliant!!! I highly recommend this book. Deepak Chopra really knows his stuff. This book covers all that you need to know about Ayurveda and is very inspiring. This has been the best book that I have read on Ayurveda. Excellent. You will not be disappointed. This is the kind of book that you keep on coming back to, as it is filled with so much information.
