United StatesThe foods we eat play a major role in our health. Ayurveda is an ancient and proven system from India for creating balance and vibrant health. This app by Meditation Oasis™ provides an easy way to apply the principles of healthy eating from Ayurveda to our everyday food choices. According to Ayurveda, the qualities of your mind and body are determined by three biological "energies" or principles called "doshas" -- vata, pitta and kapha. Each individual has a unique combination of these three bio-energies that result in their mind-body type or constitution. By determining your basic constitution and assessing your current imbalances, you will be able to modify your diet to create greater balance. App Features: Basic Constitution Quiz to help you easily determine your mind-body type Current Imbalance Quiz to find out your dosha imbalances Extensive Food Properties Table of over 150 items giving each food's properties and suitability for your mind-body type Detailed instructions for choosing the right foods to balance the doshas A Dosha Clock that automatically shows the dosha for the season and time of day Sample food plans for people with three different constitutions Eating Tips for good digestion The benefits of following an Ayurvedic diet are: more energy better digestion normalization of body weight improved overall health and well-being clarity of mind The information in this app is based on ancient Ayurvedic texts and the experience of over 25 years of applying these principles to daily life. Richard Maddux studied Ayurveda in India with Vaidya V. M. Dwivedi, Vaidya B. D. Triguna, and Vaidya Balraj Maharishi.
Great for beginners
If you want to take the first step into learning the basics of Ayurvedic Doshas, this is the app for you. Obviously you won’t become an expert through an app, but you can begin to raise awareness through research. Thank you for creating this!
United StatesToo simple
The app is very simplistic in describing Ayurvedic principles. I wish I wouldn't have paid $1.99, it should have been free. I gave it 3 stars instead of 2 because it was a "fun" app. Even though the content is reliable, this app is not to be taken seriously. It is definitely not for those who are looking for extensive information. Suggestion: the app belongs in the "free" purchases category.
United StatesVery Good Content
I was happily surprised with this app- it's easy enough to use but very good for using and understanding Ayurvedic principles in diet.
United StatesGreat app, except...
Love the app, but on some of the screens (e.g., the quiz results screen), the info at the bottom is cut off and there is no scroll option. Please fix this.
United StatesLike some more interactive pieces
For 2.99 I was hoping for the ability to log meals, follow progression of pursuing balance, and to build meals by adding the foods listed as reference into a meal plan. Please consider adding these.
United StatesLike it
Like it a lot. Wish only there were more examples of food plans and a list of foods that are bad to each type.
United StatesNot worth price
Sorry... for $2.99 I was expecting more in-depth information than what i can surf the web for and get free. C'mon Meditation Oasis, if you're going to market something, let it live up to the name/brand(?) we trust. I want my money back on this drivel.
