********************************************************************************************
Instead of considering it as something solid, Chopra sees the body as interweaving systems of energies that are constantly being consumed and renewed - the balance of these energies determines the mind-body type. Combining ancient Ayurvedic healing practices with modern Western medicine, this unique book offers a step-by-step program of mind - body medicine that can be tailored to the individual's needs, based on the individual's mind-body type.

A comprehensive guide, explaining the various body types, Perfect Health explains how we can heal the mind and reduce stress via meditation, healing sounds, music and aromatherapy and how we can nurture the body by optimising diet and exercise.

Originally published in 1990, this revised edition - complete with questionnaires and the latest scientific and medical research studies - is destined to appeal to the millions of Chopra devotees around the world and all those in search of balance, harmony and perfect health.
