A wonderful handbook and reference book with many recipes and practical uses of medicinal plants.
Many medicinal plants have become established in gynecologists' and midwives' practices over the past few decades. Antibiotic herbs such as chamomile and nasturtium, or hormone-like plants such as chasteberry and black cohosh, have established a firm place in gynecology and obstetrics. But the plant kingdom offers many other medicinal herbs that have soothing and healing effects on numerous women's ailments.
This book is a comprehensive introduction to medicinal plant science for women. It explains the interesting hormone-like effects of medicinal plants, profiles 120 women's herbs, and offers over 200 proven recipes and numerous practical tips. It combines more than 25 years of practical experience in gynecology with the findings of contemporary plant research. It is a valuable handbook for therapists and an indispensable practical reference for women of all ages who are affected by these conditions and are interested in naturopathy.
It's never too late to start over
The path of the artist from 60
For twenty-five years, Julia Cameron has inspired millions of people to embrace their creativity with her global bestseller "The Artist's Way." The renowned seminar leader is now introducing a new 12-week program that will help them finally realize their long-held dreams after retirement.
Her twelve chapters of self-help guide help you let go of the past and dare to make a fresh start. For the accompanying life review, you divide your lifetime by twelve, and each week you focus on a different phase of your life. This review, summarized weekly in a memoir, provides the foundation for truly making peace with the past and becoming free for a new beginning.
Julia Cameron, herself 65, applies her successful and proven tools for more creativity with a great deal of know-how to the special situation of the best-agers: handwriting three pages in the morning, creative days, inspirational walks.
A wealth of inspiring case studies tell of people who began playing the piano, painting, or traveling to distant lands in retirement. They inspire courage and demonstrate how fulfilling it is to listen to your inner voice and pursue your full potential. If not now, when?
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.

The personal diary for the time between the years
This lovingly and clearly designed book is a pleasure to pick up during the Raunächte (Twelve Nights). The authors sensitively encourage you to enter into a dialogue with yourself through images, stories, and rituals.
The introduction describes the following rituals:
13 wishes
12 candles
12 animal cards (they can be printed via a download from the publisher)
... and lists what you should prepare for the next 12 days.
Then the accompaniment through the twelve Raunächte begins:
Each section begins with a meditation image, contains a daily theme based on traditions and customs, a small daily ritual, and blank pages for writing down your own thoughts.
An ideal companion that wonderfully combines old traditions and new ideas. Motivating, clear instructions that you can actually practice daily and draw insights from. You can take many of them with you into your everyday life in the new year.
Tip from the herbalists: This book makes a wonderful gift for loved ones – ideally with 12 candles for the Rauhnacht light circle or with white sage and frankincense, so that you are already prepared for the smoking ritual on page 127.
One of the best and most beautiful books on the subject of smoking!

The lovely, practical book "Bauchlein-Öl und Zwiebelsocken" (Tummy Oil and Onion Socks) has long been available in herbalist shops (now in its 2nd edition), and now we have put together a practical DIY starter kit together with the author Claudia Schauflinger!

Because many customers already own the book, we are offering a DIY starter kit without the book.
Description:
Most home remedies use ingredients found in every household: onion, salt, vinegar, oil... But some applications require things that are not found in every kitchen cupboard.
We've included some of these herbs, oils, and other ingredients in our DIY starter kit! The accompanying booklet provides detailed and easy-to-understand instructions on how to use them. This allows you – even with older children – to prepare simple and child-friendly home remedies!
This is included in the starter kit:
- Calming herbal blend – for herbal sachets, tea or bath
- Herbal mixture for colds – for herbal sachets, tea or bath
- Herbal blend for tummy time – for your own tummy massage oil, so that bloating and stomach rumbling can be gently relieved.
- Calendula – to easily make your own first infused oil
- Pansies – for compresses and washes, for skin irritations
- Fine essential oil from wild mountain lavender – for many uses, several of which can be found in the book.
- Almond oil – as a baby-friendly base for infused oils
- 2 empty amber glass bottles – for bottling the finished oils
- Soft wash mitt – for washing and bathing, as a sachet for filling with herbs, onions & co.
- Linen bags – for filling with herbs, onions & co.
- Pine shavings – as packaging material, which in combination with the herbs also fills fine, relaxing herbal pillows.
- A cover letter that quickly and clearly guides you to all the applications in the book

It is one of our TOP THREE (with BREATH and GUT WITH CHARM)
Dr. Andreas Michalsen succeeds in conveying that a vegan diet is not an out-of-touch fad, but above all makes sense from a health perspective.
He writes from personal experience: because he eats this way himself and because he sees the success of this diet – and also of intermittent fasting – in his patients.
