DVD Reviews of Dr. John Douillard: Ayurveda for Weight Loss

DVD Review: Great DVD for better well being
Summary: 5 Stars

Having struggled with my weight for many years, I found the information in this DVD to be refreshing and educational. It's not just do this, do that. Instead it's if you do this, this if the effect.

Dr. Douillard takes his time to make sure his audience understands the basics of good nutrition and nutrition that moves with the seasons. He moves from the general explanation of Ayurveda for health into mini video lessons on how to breath, meditate, improve personal eating habits and some cool yoga moves.

If you're looking for something a little different, this could be a great video for you.

DVD Review: Great, Easy Introduction that was just what I was looking for
Summary: 5 Stars

I really enjoyed this dvd and thought it had a lot to offer as a very doable introduction that gets you going on the 51% plan. The concept of the 51% is you do not have to be perfect when you start something but if you can implment something 51% of the time then you are doing it the majority of the time. So he says start with eating 51% of the the grocery lists for each season 51% of the time and work from there. As you get comfortable with that you start working on the phases of the diet. You start eating in season, then you start with three meals with no snacks. You adjust the amount of the meals so you are full and you do not shock your body into storing fat. When you are comfortable eating three meals you focus on lunch being biggest and making dinner smaller. Then you focus on eating dinner before 6:00 p.m. When you can do all of this easily you move into final stage where you skip dinner gradually and only drink herbal tea with honey and work up to 3 skipped dinners a week towards the 100% which would be 3 to four weeks with no dinner so you are burning fat from lunch till breakfast. He then gives you a daily routine to help. The action plan talks about using a body brush or gloves to remove dead skin followed by an oil massage. He shows you how to do this quickly or take longer if you have the time. Then he has 11 minute meditation that is really nice and he does five minutes of alternate nostril breathing. The nicest thing was an unexpected 15 minute yoga routine that he does with his teenage daughter that I really enjoyed and could easily see me adding to my daily yoga routine. He said to do this routine in the morning but I think it would be really good to do at night as well.He also had a wonderful tutorial on how to breath when doing cardio that I have never seen before and felt great when I tried it. Lots of good information, very high production and thought I would mention that an added bonus is the good doc is pretty easy on the eyes as well :-).

DVD Review: nicely put together
Summary: 5 Stars

I rented this video and think it's really well put together. Dr. Douillard speaks knowledgably about the principals and practices in Ayurveda and I was surprised that there was information he refuted about our modern 'dieting' patterns, first being that you should graze all day. He says no and explains why. I recommended this DVD if you're interested into moving in a holistic direction for weight loss.
