mean giving up a party-life style.<br />

Dhana offers Ayurvedic diagnosis, an<br />

explanation of Ayurvedic principles,<br />

and advice on an Ayurvedic life-style.<br />

He sees this as a form of seva, service,<br />

in addition to yoga teaching, explaining<br />

that simple things which do not cost<br />

money can make a significant<br />

difference to well-being. He notes that<br />

changes do require determination and<br />

courage, and summarises: “It’s not a<br />

cure or a miracle. Practitioners do have<br />

to do the work. No one can heal you,<br />

you have to heal yourself: you make a<br />

choice!”<br />

Laksmi’s Cardoman and Cinnamon Pineapple<br />

Ingredients:<br />

1 pineapple<br />

1 tablespoon organic maple syrup<br />

1 tablespoon of pure water<br />

1/4 teaspoon crushed fresh cardoman<br />

1/4 teaspoon crushed fresh cinnamon (purchase in stick form, crush yourself)<br />

Method:<br />

1 Cut of the outer edge of the pineapple and cut in to horizontal slices.<br />

2 Mix together the maple syrup, water, cardoman, and cinnamon.<br />

3 Brush the pineapple with the mixture. Place under a hot grill for 2 minutes.<br />

4 Turn, brush with the mixture, grill for a further 2 minutes.<br />

5 Garnish with an additional sprinkle of the remaining spices. Serve warm.<br />

Note:<br />

The spices act as an aid to digestion according to Ayurvedic philosophy. The<br />

spices in this recipe are tailored for Vata and Kapha, but the sweetener (maple<br />

syrup) is tailored<br />

for Pitta and Vata.<br />

Therefore the<br />

recipe is best for<br />

Vata and Pitta<br />

types, but can be<br />

tolerated by<br />

Kapha people in<br />

moderation. So it<br />

ranks: Vata- 1st,<br />

Pitta- 2 nd , and<br />

Kapha- 3 rd . The<br />

time of the day it<br />

is consumed<br />

should also be<br />

considered.<br />
