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.

The restart for the whole body
Ayurveda is the oldest holistic healing art in the world, yet it is often romanticized in esoteric terms. Neuroscientist Dr. Kulreet Chaudhary, who grew up in India and the USA, takes a completely different approach: She combines Western conventional medicine with Far Eastern healing. The dietary and lifestyle recommendations she gives her patients have another pleasant side effect: They help you lose excess weight – effortlessly.
This book shows you how to improve your digestion and your memory at the same time. It explains why diets don't work and why you've probably been putting the cart before the horse with your previous weight loss attempts. You'll also learn:
● why it's not your diet that matters, but your digestion,
● how you can tell if you are suffering from a »leaky brain« – and what you can do about it with the self-treatment program presented in this book,
● how to overcome your cravings, burn fat, gain energy and beat your unhealthy lifestyle habits.
And last but not least, you will learn how to maintain the success of this program throughout your life so that you always feel reborn.

Often, a few hours in the forest are enough to return home energized and refreshed. We know from our own experience that a walk or hike in the forest air is good for you – and not just since the positive effects of "forest bathing" were scientifically proven. But the forest offers more than just seclusion from the hustle and bustle; there's much more to discover, and this book entices you to experience the forest's vitality with all your senses.
It is a stimulating blend of relaxing immersion in the forest, adventure inspiration, and knowledge about the healing power and use of plants and trees.
Set out on your journey, breathe deeply, smell, feel, hear and taste… alone or in pleasant company.
This book is also great for introducing children and young people to the forest in a sensitive way.
We have long appreciated Gerda Holzmann, the author of this book, for her book “Healthy Wild Herbs from My Garden.”
The Innsbruck-based Löwenzahnverlag not only focuses on ecology in terms of content, but also produces sustainably and does not use plastic films.
After the brother of a herbalist participated in a herbal hike led by Gerda Holzmann and was subsequently able to enjoy delicious wild herb dishes, he warmly recommended this book to us.
We think it's great too and would happily recommend it!
On every page, you can sense how connected she is to nature and quickly realize how well she knows about herbs and their uses in the medicine cabinet and the kitchen.
Gerda Holzmann describes 30 wild herbs* and answers important questions:
How do you collect wild herbs correctly?
In which season do you harvest which herb?
Which parts of the plant are processed – leaves, flowers or fruits?
Which of these plants are suitable for your own garden, flowerbed, balcony or even flowerpot?
Do you propagate it by root or by seed?
What benefits do these plants have for our health?
Easy-to-follow, simple recipes tempt you to make your own teas, tinctures, juices, ointments, and delicious wild herb dishes.
* From field pansies, mugwort, comfrey, ground ivy and meadowsweet to horsetail.
The book is also a visual delight – like all books from the Innsbruck-based LöwenzahnVerlag, which not only focuses on ecology in its content, but also produces sustainably and avoids the use of plastic film.

Women's bodies - women's wisdom
How women can rediscover their original ability to heal themselves
When it comes to health and well-being, many women know that their body is an ally, always showing them the right path. American gynecologist Christiane Northrup has long been convinced that there is a connection between mental suffering and physical illness. From decades of medical practice, she knows that a woman's life circumstances and history are linked to her gynecological disorders. Therefore, she encourages women to discover what has caused them to be ill and shows them paths to healing.
Dr. Northrup has now completely revised and updated her bestseller. Using case studies and the latest research, she shows how women can grasp the wisdom inherent in every bodily process—from menstruation to PMS to menopause. She openly and clearly describes how women can learn to understand these processes as part of their inner voice, how they can activate their innate capacity for healing and self-healing, and how they can live it day by day.
The loving, practical book Tummy Oil and Onion Socks has long been available in the herbal drugstore (now in its 2nd edition), and now we have put together a practical DIY starter package together with the author Claudia Schauflinger!
It also makes an ideal gift for families with children and those who are about to become one.
Claudia Schauflinger is a mother of two children and grew up with home remedies herself. She runs a blog with helpful tips and gives great workshops (also online). More information about Claudia's children's home remedies here.
Description:
Most home remedies use ingredients that are found in every household: onion, salt, vinegar, oil... But some applications require things that cannot be found in every kitchen cupboard.
We have now packed some of these herbs, oils, etc. into the DIY starter package! How to deal with this is described in detail and understandably in the accompanying book. This means you can prepare children's home remedies in a simple and child-friendly way - even together with slightly older children!
This is included in the starter package:
- Herbal mixture calming – for herbal sachets, tea or bath
- Herbal mixture for colds – for herbal sachets, tea or bath
- Belly herbal mixture - for your own stomach massage oil, so that flatulence and stomach rumbling can be gently relieved
- Marigold – to easily make your first extract oil yourself
- Pansies – for wraps and washes, for skin irritations
- Fine essential oil from wild mountain lavender – for many uses, many of which can be found in the book
- Almond oil – as a baby-friendly base for extract oils
- 2 empty brown glass bottles - to fill the finished oils
- Soft washing glove – for washing and bathing, as a bag for filling with herbs, onions etc.
- Linen bag – for filling with herbs, onions etc.
- Pine shavings - as a packaging material that, in combination with the herbs, also fills fine, relaxing herbal pillows
