Cleanse Your Body, Reveal Your Soul

Sustainable Well-Being Through the Ancient Power of Ayurveda Panchakarma Therapy

De: Judith Pentz

Narrado por: Sarah Borges

Psychiatrist Judith E. Pentz, MD, travels to Nagpur, India, to study 5000-year-old Ayurvedic Panchakarma detoxification and rejuvenation therapy in a quest to provide enhanced holistic wellness treatment for her patients.

A change at the cellular level. Part travel memoir and part spiritual guide, Cleanse Your Body and Reveal Your Soul is one woman’s transformative quest with Ayurvedic Panchakarma (a fivefold detoxification treatment involving massage, herbal therapy and other procedures) and the profound shifts that led to some sustainable, substantial life changes.

Dissatisfied with a mainstream psychiatric practice, Dr Pentz heads to India, where she undergoes an ancient, rejuvenating cleanse. Dr Pentz’s narrative offers a compassionate and compelling path for Western audiences and the Ayurveda-curious. Complete with healing oils, Ayurvedic daily rituals and yoga poses, she supplements her journey with tips about preventive lifestyle changes that promote sustainable wellbeing.

Stilted writing style for basic panchakarma

Basic panchakarma information written as a first person diary. Very stilted awkward writing. Would have been easier to read/listen to if written as a guide rather than a personal story. Her good points could have been made short and to the point. The narrator’s mispronunciation of both English and Sanskrit was frustrating. Reading was slow and plodding, like she was reading to kindergarteners. The same information is available online and in YouTube videos for adults considering panchakarma.
