Explains how to determine one's body type, recommends programs of diet, stress reduction, exercise, and therapy, and explains how to restore the body's essential balance with nature.

What is your body type? Are you a Vata -- enthusiastic and vivacious by nature, with a thin physique? A Pitta -- precise and orderly, with a preference for cool weather? A Kapha -- with a calm disposition, good stamina, and a tendency to gain weight easily and lose it slowly?

Once you have determined your body type from the book's detailed quiz, Perfect Health provides you with a personally tailored program of diet, stress reduction, exercises, and daily routines -- all based on a 5,000-year-old system of mind/body medicine known as Ayurveda. It provides the basis for reestablishing the body's natural balance, for strengthening the mind/body connection, for using the power of quantum healing to transcend disease and aging -- for achieving Perfect Health.
