Book Review: Healthy Happy Sexy by Katie Silcox
With wit and a saucy sense of humor that had me smiling all the way through, Katie Silcox makes Ayurveda practice accessible, and, yes, sexy with her new book: Healthy Happy Sexy: Ayurveda Wisdom for Modern Women. But don’t be fooled by Katie’s southern charm, she is throwing down some serious wisdom in this book, and it’s bound to become the premiere Ayurvedic primer that introduces this ancient science to women, even those who may never done a single yoga posture.
Silcox weaves tales of her own spiritual evolution throughout the book. She writes with an authenticity that reveals so much of herself that we instantly recognize that she is someone whose life has been changed by these practices and she really wants us to get it too.
The chapter on sex is written with directness and sass; she gets right to the point: How can we boost our pleasure-power? With meditation on how to reclaim your energy from past sexual partners and practices on starting your day with love for yourself, this book really is a self-care manual. Full of recipes, meditations, herbal remedies, and practices for your particular dosha, this book has the perfect voice to introduce these tools of Ayurveda to help you create a more balanced, joyful, and vibrant life.
