Raves and Reviews
"For Harish Johari--artist, composer, chef, teacher, tantric devotee--desire is the brush, and the five senses are the palette."
– Yoga Journal
"Harish Johari served as guide to Richard Alpert (Baba Ram Dass) on his initial excursion into mystic India and continues his vocation of bridging the East/West gap. A true renaissance man, this distinguished north Indian poet, sculptor, and musician holds degrees in philosophy and literature."
– East West Journal
"In Ayurvedic Massage, author Harish Johari combines a variety of cultural, yogic and Ayurvedic concepts together to spin his tale about massage. In doing so he is able to bring to light the concept of marmas (pressure points) and speculate on how these antecedents of Chinese acupuncture points may be helpful in stimulating the body's own healing powers."
– Massage Magazine
"Johari writes about this complex subject in a simple and easy-to-follow manner."
– Aromatic Thymes
"Harish Johari's Ayurvedic Massage is an informative and easy-to-read introduction to the world of oil massage as daily ritual, exercise, relaxation, preventative, and healing practice."
– Massage Therapy Journal
"Ayurvedic Massage offers massage therapists a taste of an approach they might want to pursue through more training. It can be a source of enlivening your present practice with a different perspective. An accessible introduction that is well worth reading, with instructions massage therapists could easily follow."
– Mirka Knaster, Massage Therapy Journal
"Harish Johari is Ayurveda's renaissance man."
