Editorial Reviews

Review

“Ayurveda is a system of ageless wisdom and timeless healing for the body, mind, and consciousness of every individual. In this book, Claire clearly explains a most practical application of Ayurvedic wisdom regarding seasonal regimen, diet, and lifestyle. I think this book will serve many people, including Ayurvedic practitioners and students.”—Dr. Vasant Lad, BAMS, MASc, Ayurvedic physician, and author of Ayurveda: The Science of Self-Healing, the Textbook of Ayurveda series, and more

Living Ayurveda elegantly weaves together food, breath, and movement through the seasons, bringing to life the timeless, relevant, and accessible wisdom of Ayurveda. From your yoga mat to your kitchen, from big choices to the smallest moments of transition, Claire’s seasonal practices explore the relationship of body and mind to nature’s vital influences. Each page of this artfully designed book will leave you feeling attuned to your inner wisdom and your most sustainable wellness.”—Elena Brower, yoga teacher and bestselling author of Practice You and Art of Attention
 
“I’ll admit, I was a bit intimidated and skeptical of Ayurveda before meeting Claire. But her modern approach, practical wisdom, and unwavering passion made me a believer. This book is the ultimate guide to understanding and applying this powerful ancient medicine to the world we live in today.”
—Jessica Murnane, author of One Part Plant and host of One Part Podcast
 
“Claire presents the power of Ayurvedic wisdom in a stunning collection of doable recipes, rituals, and methods that you’ll want to practice every day. She has a gift for empowering you to practice self-observation without judgment and you’ll be inspired to nourish yourself inside and out with her simple methods and delicious, seasonal, balancing recipes. The answers to vibrant health and greater presence in your life can be found within these gorgeous pages, and as they’ll help you to understand, they’re all around us in nature as well!”
—Heather Crosby, nutritionist and author of Yum Universe and Pantry to Plate
 
“In this stunning book, Claire distills the complexity of Ayurveda and delivers it to you on the level of intuition. She shows you the language of this mind-body-soul system and then provides accessible advice on using it in your everyday life. Seeking that balance of our inner and outer worlds is much less intimidating with her prompts for self-inquiry, recipes for true nourishment, and her seasonal guidance for injecting sacred practices into the normal rhythms of our everyday lives.”
—Laura Wright, author of The First Mess Cookbook
 
“The art and wisdom of Ayurveda is in restoring us to the deep nourishment of nature and a life that honors the ebb and flow of our own breath, our own heart, our own personal tides. Luminously told, this book invites you into that life, where tuning in to nature blossoms deep wisdom, and gentle self-care weaves you back into the fabric of belonging. More than an informational book on Ayurveda, this is a guide to living grace, and to loving yourself beautiful.”
—Laura Plumb, author of Ayurveda Cooking for Beginners

“Part cookbook and part lifestyle guide, this book serves as a manual for holistic living and self-care based on the ancient practice of Ayurveda. Each chapter includes a series of vegetarian recipes, seasonal rituals, and daily practices to help nourish your body and soul.”—Book Riot

Great book, great recipes. I love Ayurveda and this is my favorite book on it so far. So much variety and information. It is also a gorgeous book for center table. I have gifted it to many friends

C. · December 31, 2022

I've had this book for a while now and still use it frequently. Claire has made Ayurveda understandable, easy to incorporate into daily life, and inspiring. I wish there had been a book like this when I first went down the Ayurveda path. The book itself is beautifully laid out with photographs to support the teachings and the practices are easy to learn and do.The recipes are simple and delicious. Claire has a talent for combining flavors you never thought would go together. You may need to add a few items to your pantry and it's worth it. My favorite is the Savory Breakfast Kanji which I eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner. It heals and nourishes me. Others I love: Creamy Miso Tahini Dal, Fall Harvest Muffins, and Quinoa & White Bean Cakes with Avocado Dipping Sauce.The daily rituals and practices are a simple and beautiful start and end to each day throughout each season.

This book has completely changed my life and I am so so so grateful. Thank you to the author for putting together such a beautiful, thoughtful and informative book. I turned to ayurveda because I was in pain. Eating even the smallest of meals was killing me. The bloating, the gas, the acid reflux. It was a bad situation. So I was searching for something to help me. I began to educate myself about the power of food and not the entertainment of food and I was thankfully guided to search Bolo reviews for a new cookbook. But this is so much more than that. The lifestyle changes that I have made through its gentle influence. Whew!In a year, I have shed pounds, joined a brilliant yoga studio and cook beautiful, healthy meals for me and my family. It was a bit of a process at first. Trying to find ingredients. Trying and failing at some of the recipes. But I stuck with it and I am sooooo glad I did. I really hope the author comes out with another book. I would buy it in a heartbeat.

This book is magical medicine for the soul! I was expecting a cookbook and what I got is sooo much more. It’s like a whole study of Ayurveda mixed with yoga and daily practices, plus the most delicious recipes ever. I feel like a Goddess in the kitchen when I cook one of Claire’s recipes. My whole family loves it too! So special. And, not to mention, the photos/content are so stunning, it’s makes me happy just flipping through this book and receiving its beauty! I can tell a lot of love and care went into it and I so appreciate owning a piece of it.

I got my book today, and am so delighted with both the presentation and the content. It's both educational and practical, with explanations about Ayurvedic doshas and seasonal elements woven in with the recipes, and rounded out with yoga and lifestyle recommendations to help boost the benefits of the meals. Each section of the book is dedicated to one of the seasons, making it really easy to find recipes that go with the time of year. And so many delicious looking dishes and unique recipes. I see a lot of things I've never tried before. I can't wait to get cooking!

This is a beautifully-designed book with simple, easy-to-understand explanations of Ayurveda. Specifically, it's a handbook to guide you through the year with attention to adjusting your yoga practice, meal planning, and daily routines to fit your needs for each season. If you're interested in learning about Ayurveda but feel overwhelmed and intimidated, this might be the book for you. Clearly written. Gorgeous to look at. I highly recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderfully engaging seasonal guide for healthy living.

h. · November 27, 2020

Superb quality from the book cover to all of the photographs, the descriptions, recipes and the encouragement in Claire's words of wisdom throughout this book. Not to be missed by anyone who is looking for wonderfully accurate information, proven over centuries to optimize one's health, made easy to follow and understand with no judgements for our possible missteps along the way. This is not a fad. The recipes are so healthy and inviting, I will have to use patience to only incorporate the current season into my diet instead of just making everything that appeals to me.The yoga poses are so helpful, as Claire delves into what helps to balance us in each season and I am so looking forward to referring to this book daily, as I work toward a guided, but not rigid, plan for living a more balanced, natural life.

K. · December 16, 2020

Ayurveda sets about to describe some lofty goals and complex concepts, yet the author has opened up this whole world with very concise and beautifully presented teachings and practices. This book simplified my understanding of Ayurveda’s essence expressed in seasonal and daily rhythms as well as the integration of yoga routines. Chapter-by-chapter, the author describes the meaning and benefits of realigning to these rhythms, clearing out confusion and dullness to live a more discerning and full life.I am very grateful for this book. Not only is it dripping in gorgeousness, it delivers on content, skillfully enhancing the art of Ayurvedic living with inspiring recipes, rituals, and practices. With the help of this heartfelt guide, I look forward to deepening these seasonal relationships within myself, my family, and community as well as experience all the delicious benefits.

Fantastic.

Accidental delight

c. · February 7, 2021

I've been following Ayurveda for a few years now, helping to heal my stomach & digestion, but most of my favourite sources are Indian. Not that I have a problem with that, but as a white westerner, I can only follow it 50/50 as I'm neither living in India or Hindu.So I've been searching through a lot of the western approach to Ayurveda, with more meals/ingredients I would be used to on a daily basis and have been very disappointed. A lot of them being very New Age and the recipes are pretty disgusting(& seem to be 80% of sweet potato, coconut and seeds with some spices thrown in)I bought this book simply because I liked the sound of the recipes. When I opened it, I realised that this is not a recipe book, it's a lifestyle book, including pictures of yoga poses, rituals and seasonal practises.This is the sort of book I have been looking for. A western approach to 'Living Ayurveda' that goes beyond the ghee and tongue scraping.Another thing I've noticed, is that often western Ayurveda authors will often write their own recipes, with their own doshas, and add the other 2 as a side note. This author uses the seasons e.g Spring recipes are Kapha focused, with Vata & Pitta notes, Summer recipes are Pitta focused with Kapha & Vata notes.I really appreciate that, as it allows the reader to feel a bit more included and to judge for themselves which recipes would be better for them.Over all, pleasantly surprised, exactly what I've been hoping to find and will be enjoying throughout the year.

So well put together
