Yoga of Recovery

Integrating Yoga and Ayurveda with Modern Recovery Tools for Addiction

By: Durga Leela, David Frawley - foreword

Narrated by: Durga Leela, Laurence Bouvard

A complete overview of how Ayurveda helps us to embody and personalise holistic recovery tools to help us overcome addictions, self-destructive behaviours, disordered eating and chronic diseases.

By offering an empowering personal programme of self-care in recovery, this audiobook provides guidance for everyone affected by widespread modern 'addictiveness'.

The audiobook explores Ayurveda's understanding of both the problem of our 'one addiction process' and its solution. It offers holistic techniques that enhance any of the traditional recovery pathways and beyond any of the common diet/exercise dogma from mainstream media. It covers the stress/addictive tendencies of the doshic types, and links this to how stress affects metabolism, the main determinant of health. The programme offered in the audiobook is an integration of the philosophy, psychology and physical practises of Yoga and Ayurveda to help people shift their life trajectory.

With Yoga of Recovery, author Durga Leela presents a complete resource for working with individuals recovering from addiction.
