The purpose of this literary review is to evaluate various modalities for creating a holistic living plan that encompasses the mind, body, and spirit. Ayurveda is the science of life. It recognizes the need for union between the mind, body, and spirit. Ayurvedic medicine is practiced in the United States as a blended holistic system incorporating both allopathic and complementary treatments. Practitioners of allopathic medicine are beginning to accept and understand the connection between the mind and the body and how deeply the mind controls the health state of the body. Practitioners and patients are working together to create a holistic living plan. The holistic living plan should be individualized and consist of a healthy diet plan including essential macronutrients: carbohydrate, protein, and fat, essential fatty acids such as omega-3 fatty acids, moderate physical activity most days of the week, and ways to nurture and grow the spirit through modalities such as meditation and visualization. When the mind and body are in harmony the spirit can grow without limitation.
