The Handbook for Women
A very personally written book by Anda Dinhopl, the former head of the herbal drugstore . It takes you through the stages of the female life cycle: from menarche through the period of fertility and transition to old age. Practical tea and aroma recipes and tips that are easy to implement will accompany you through your everyday life and help to relieve minor ailments. Women's herbs such as yarrow, lady's mantle, raspberry leaves, important essential oils such as clary sage, fennel, sage and rose are described in detail and because good cuisine is the basis for well-being, there is also a "small spice pharmacy".
FRAUENKRÄUTER is a bestseller and long-seller in the herbal drugstore that is read, hidden, given away - and praised again and again.
Goddesses don't age
How we take away the power of time by choosing the fullness of life
Growing older doesn't have to mean a loss of health, beauty, or a slide into cultural insignificance. No one could assert this more forcefully, convincingly, and passionately than world-renowned gynecologist and bestselling author Christiane Northrup.
She encourages women to trust their own intuitive (body) knowing and introduces them to the secret of agelessness. Her goal is nothing less than emancipation from all social prejudices about aging, from the expectations of "others," and even from the whisperings of doctors. She calls on women to finally do everything that transforms women into ageless goddesses: strengthening their self-healing powers, eating optimally, making their leisure time fulfilling, and opening themselves to the spiritual dimension – in order to live a life of maximum sensuality, vitality, and joy.
Regena Thomashauer's book is somewhat "American," a bit over the top, but refreshing and bubbly. After all the profound, serious, and critical books we've read—and will continue to read with interest— PUSSY is a refreshingly enjoyable read that Anda Dinhopl recommends to everyone!
It accompanies us on a wonderful journey to ourselves, to our wishes, our desires, our longings.
It motivates us to live bolder, crazier, happier, and more sensually, because female pleasure holds infinite energy potential!
And instead of wasting our energy on worries, let’s tell ourselves more often: JUST DO IT!
A humorous introduction to the female body for children ages three and up.
"Lina looks carefully when others are naked,
from head to toe, completely unpackaged."
Lina has long known that her sexual organ is called the vulva - and not "down there" or "between the legs" (unlike many people who still confuse or misname vulva and vagina).
This picture book follows the curious, cheerful, and alert little girl on her journeys of discovery, where she sees how different not only underwear but also naked bodies look. You can sense her self-confidence because she is allowed to feel comfortable in her body and has what she wants to know explained to her.
Lina's entertaining journey is complemented by informative knowledge about body hair and hygiene, nudity and growing up.
From the foreword by the three designers of LINA:
With this children's book, we want to make a contribution to giving young people a natural access to the body, especially the vulva!

Marlene Warelopoulos, the “mother” of the herbal pharmacist’s kitchen, has “cooked” for both customers and us herbalists for many years and, together with Anda Dinhopl, has held countless cooking courses.
Her – fortunately “imitable” – art of seasoning and preparing wholesome, vegetarian dishes is captured in this book.
The recipes are easy to explain and follow, and they taste delicious: soups, sauces, casseroles, cakes, and the herbal pharmacy classics like our vegetable cake and oat biscuits.
There is also a short, clear explanation of the nutritional principles of Ayurveda.
The book is also suitable for those who are not interested in Ayurveda but appreciate good vegetarian cuisine.

Like the authors' first book , EAT LIKE A WOMAN (it's one of our favorites!), this book is beautifully designed: sensual, colorful, and stimulating with aesthetic images, it invites you to browse through it, read it, and be motivated again and again.

feminine food - NOURISH YOUR FEMININITY
Blossoming - first half of the cycle
Letting go - second half of the cycle
Visually, the book is a feast for the eyes; the images, graphics, and layout are just as delightful as the food and drink recipes. It's an ideal gift for yourself and other women.
A BOOK FOR THE WHOLE YEAR, which is not only about smoking and the Raunächte, but about much more: about the energetic relationship between people and space (home, workplace).
Sigrid Csurda-Steinwender is an interior designer and geomancer. She has long been concerned with the topic of "better living, better working, better life" and raises awareness of how closely people and spaces are connected. In this book, she offers helpful suggestions for getting rid of stressful vibrations within your own four walls.
It supports you in decluttering and redesigning your own environment, in furnishing, and in dealing with people and with yourself.
Here are some quotes:
The energy fields underlying the space create its unique atmosphere, with which every person resonates.
The memory of our space remembers everything that happens in a space over time.
Spaces shouldn't be constraining or limiting, but rather should be used and understood as support for unfolding our full potential. Therefore, it's advisable to cleanse and clear the energy field of your home from time to time.
A key to creating a strengthening living space lies in pausing occasionally in the rapid flow of time—consciously observing and perceiving what is—and then acting accordingly. Doing this in the form of a ritual transforms the action into a sacred and healing act.
Breathe
How the simplest thing in the world changes our lives
Every person born takes a breath in the first minute. From then on, the lungs normally function on their own. But chronic lung diseases, asthma, and sleep apnea have become widespread, and even those who aren't sick gasp, wheeze, snort, and puff. Author Jessica Braun, who is easily thrown off her breathing rhythm herself, sets out to relearn how to breathe. She accompanies a woman in labor as she pantes, visits a sleep lab, undergoes a breathing diagnosis, meditates with an Indian guru, dives with free divers, and watches a dominatrix squeeze the air out of her client. Her research leads her to researchers and actors, biathletes and yoga teachers. She shows how breathing connects body and soul. And that everyone can learn the art of breathing and change their life.

New knowledge about the forgotten art of breathing.
In this book, James Nestor takes an exciting and adventurous journey to the lost art of breathing. He meets renowned experts from all over the world, reports on the latest scientific studies, but also finds what he is looking for in completely different places: with an anarchist opera singer, an Indian mystic, an irritable swimming coach and a stern-looking Ukrainian cardiologist...
Anyone who reads this book will never breathe the way they did before - and lead a much better and healthier life!
We herbal druggists like to encourage our customers to pay attention to their breathing, especially if they have problems with the nervous system, digestion, eating habits and cycle/change. We recommend taking a few calm breaths before every meal, as well as in tense, anxious situations. And in the evening before you go to sleep - best combined with a soothing stomach massage with our Vata care oil. It is all the more pleasing that the topic of breathing is now receiving more attention and more research and writing is being done about it.
Wisdom of Menopause
Self-healing, change and new beginnings in the second half of life
In “The Wisdom of Menopause,” Christiane Northrup thoroughly dispels the common notion that the term “menopause” simply refers to a collection of physical problems that need to be treated—preferably with hormones!
Rather, menopause is a physical and mental upheaval that offers women a real opportunity for growth—if they succeed in listening to their inner voice. Christiane Northrup uncovers the connection between menopause and a woman's emotional life and describes, among other things, in "The Wisdom of Menopause," how menopause leads to a shift in female priorities, how women can recognize menopausal symptoms as wake-up calls from their bodies, how hormonal changes affect sexuality, how women cope with changes in their appearance, and how they can protect themselves from heart disease, Alzheimer's disease, and cancer.
Christiane Northrup encourages women to understand their bodies' messages, to view menopause as a time of positive energy, and to harness the wonderful power of this phase of life for their personal development. In the new edition of the bestseller "The Wisdom of Menopause," Christiane Northrup has compiled the latest studies and case studies and shares her wealth of experience from her own practice.
