Unfolding Happiness is an in-depth introduction to Ayurveda, Meditation, and Far Eastern cosmology. Millenniums ago, a medical science based on natural ingredients and healthy eating emerged in the area now known as the Indian subcontinent. This science is Ayurveda, which translates to life-knowledge.

Ambika Devi brings 45 years of experience as a holistic lifestyle coach, drawing from degrees in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Herbology, Aromatherapy, and a Masters in Yoga and Meditation. She taught holistic health at university level for 21 years and helped write a key code of ethics in this field.

Co-author Dr. Vijay Jain, MD, brings 40 years of experience in general surgery and 25 years of focused study in Integrative Medicine, combining traditional Western medicine with ancient Ayurvedic practices. He specializes in Ayurvedic detoxification and other therapies that help harmonize chronic lifestyle diseases and encourage graceful aging.

The ancient healing system of Ayurveda has been passed down through generations. Its Sanskrit classics are considered foundational texts of this ancient science.

Ayurveda approaches disease and disorders from the root level, using the kitchen as your pharmacy. Its philosophy embraces five elements and six tastes that work together to harmonize body, mind, and spirit. The three pillars of health according to Ayurveda are right diet, right lifestyle, and right sleep.

Unfolding Happiness offers tools for personal transformation through heartfelt stories, practical guidance, things you can try at home, and easy-to-follow instructions.
