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!

HEALTHY WITH MEDICINAL MUSHROOMS
Strengthen your immune system, cure diseases and relieve symptoms with the 22 most important mushrooms - from Cordyceps to Shiitake
For hundreds of years, traditional Chinese medicine has utilized the amazing healing powers of mushrooms. Science now confirms what naturopathy has long known: medicinal mushrooms strengthen the immune system, lower blood pressure, improve metabolism and energy levels, fight viruses and bacteria, and can even kill tumor cells. As adaptogens, they also increase stress resistance: the body builds resilience and draws on it in acute situations.
Philip Rebensburg, a biologist and mycologist, and Dr. Andreas Kappl, a general practitioner and naturopath, will show you how you can harness the healing power of mushrooms. From Chaga to Reishi to Shiitake, detailed profiles will teach you everything you need to know about the 22 most important medicinal mushrooms. Based on the current state of scientific knowledge, mycologist Philip Rebensburg describes their ingredients, uses, and therapeutic effects. You'll also learn about the illnesses and ailments for which medicinal mushrooms are used, how you can cultivate your own, and the current state of legislation. You, too, can benefit from the amazing effects of mushrooms – for lifelong health.

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.
THE standard work of natural gynecology.
The at-Verlag writes:
Herbal remedies have been increasingly gaining popularity in gynecologists' and midwives' practices in recent years. Antibiotic herbs such as bearberry, nasturtium, and garlic, as well as hormone-like plants such as lady's mantle, chasteberry, and black cohosh, have established a firm place in gynecology and obstetrics. But the plant kingdom offers countless other women's herbs whose healing powers can enrich and support a woman's entire life.
Based on her many years of research and practical experience, the author demonstrates how traditional plant knowledge can be integrated into a holistic concept of contemporary gynecology. Whether it's cystitis, endometriosis, the desire to conceive, fibroids, osteoporosis, menstrual, pregnancy, or menopausal symptoms, therapists and women of all ages will find what they're looking for here.
The encyclopedia contains 110 detailed portraits of women's herbs, with information on ingredients, effects, signatures, uses, and references to commercial products. It also includes over 180 medicinal herbal recipes and numerous valuable practical tips and treatment suggestions. It also includes a comprehensive medical glossary. An indispensable reference work for anyone interested in women's health.
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.
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.

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.
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.

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.
