Lisa Joy Mitchell, a busy public relations consultant, was drawn to
study Ayurvedic cooking in 1998, when chronic health problems began
taking center stage in her fast-paced life. On her road to
wellness, Mitchell changed her diet and began an informal study
with Ayurvedic physicians Dr. Vasant Lad, Ed Danaher, and Dr.
Alpana Bhatt in the US and Dr. Smita Naram in India.
Mitchell is now a wellness mentor and cooking instructor based in
Raleigh, North Carolina. She often works in partnership with her
husband, Tom Mitchell, a chiropractic physician who practices
Ayurvedic pulse assessment and herbal medicine. During the past
decade, Mitchell has cooked for hundreds of participants in
Ayurvedic clinics and meditation courses.
