Creating Health : Beyond Prevention, Toward Perfection

Dr. Deepak Chopra, author of the bestselling Ageless Body, Timeless blind, offers his thousands of fans the first audio edition of Creating Health: How to Wake Up the Body's Intelligence, his groundbreaking work about the healing power of the mind.

First published in 1987, Creating Health introduces the basic premises of Ayurveda, the six-thousand-year-old tradition of health care from India, and guides listeners toward a sound understanding of the mind-body connection.

Dr. Chopra has revised Creating Health for the many people who are turning to alternative methods of health care as a result of the escalating crisis in traditional care. This edition incorporates a number of advances based on Dr. Chopra's recent work and new perspectives, including the techniques of mindfulness meditation, a simple but powerful form of breath-focused meditation.

In Creating Health, Dr. Chopra blends Eastern and Western medical philosophy to provide a clear, rich view of the road to perfect health -- a balance of mind, body, and spirit.

Ageless Body, Timeless Mind; Journey Into Healing; Perfect Weight; Restful Sleep; Perfect Digestion; and Boundless Energy, by Deepak Chopra, M.D., are also available from Random House AudioBooks.

Deepak Chopra is former chief of staff of the New England Memorial Hospital. In 1992 he was appointed to the National Institutes of Health Ad Hoc Panel on Alternative Medicine. Dr. Chopra is now Executive Director of the Sharp Institute I for Human Potential and Mind/Body Medicine in San Diego.
