A fresh start for the whole body
Ayurveda is the oldest holistic healing art in the world, but is often romanticized in esoteric terms. Neuroscientist Dr. Dr., who grew up in India and the USA, takes a completely different approach. Kulreet Chaudhary: She combines Western medicine with Far Eastern medicine. The recommendations she gives her patients about their diet and lifestyle also have a pleasant side effect: they help you lose excess pounds – and all without any effort.

This book shows you how to improve your digestion while improving your memory. It explains to you why diets are of no use and why you have probably put the cart before the horse with your previous attempts to lose weight. You will also find out:

● why it's not your diet that matters, but your digestion,
● how you can tell whether 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 cravings, burn fat, gain energy and avoid unhealthy lifestyle habits.

And last but not least, you will learn how to maintain the success of this program throughout your life and always feel like a new person.

THE standard work of natural gynecology.

The at publishing house writes:

Herbal remedies have been increasingly taking over gynecologists' and midwives' practices in recent years. Antibiotic herbs such as bearberry, nasturtium and garlic or plants with hormone-like effects such as lady's mantle, chasteberry and silver cohosh were able to gain a permanent place in gynecology and obstetrics.

Based on her many years of research and healing experience, the author shows how traditional plant knowledge can be integrated into a holistic concept of contemporary gynecology. Regardless of whether you have cystitis, endometriosis, the desire to have children, myoma, osteoporosis, menstrual, pregnancy or menopausal symptoms - therapists and women of all ages will find what they are looking for here.

The lexicon contains 110 detailed portraits of women's herbs with information on ingredients, effects, signatures, applications and references to commercial products. There are also over 180 medicinal herbal recipes and numerous valuable practical tips and therapy suggestions. With comprehensive medical glossary. An essential reference for anyone interested in women's health.

Goddesses don't age

A humorous introduction to the female body for children aged three and over.

"Lina looks carefully when others are naked,
from head to toe, completely unpacked."

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 the vulva and vagina).

This picture book accompanies the curious, happy, alert little girl on her journeys of discovery, where she sees how different not only underwear but also naked bodies look. You can feel her self-confidence because she is allowed to feel comfortable in her body and she is explained what she wants to know.

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 growing people natural access to the body, especially to the vulva!

Women's bodies - women's wisdom

Wisdom of menopause
Self-healing, change and new beginnings in the second half of life

In “Wisdom of Menopause,” Christiane Northrup thoroughly dispels the common idea that the term “menopause” simply hides a collection of physical problems that are caused – ideally with hormones! – need to be treated.

Rather, menopause is a physical and mental upheaval that offers women a real opportunity for growth - if they manage to listen to their inner voice. Christiane Northrup uncovers the connection between menopause and a woman's emotional life and describes, among other things, in "Wisdom of Menopause", how menopause leads to a shift in female priorities, how women can recognize climacteric symptoms as wake-up calls from their body, how How hormonal changes affect sexuality, how women can deal with changes in their appearance or how they can protect themselves from heart disease, Alzheimer's and cancer.

Christiane Northrup encourages women to understand their body's messages, to see menopause as a time of positive energy and to use the wonderful power of this phase of life for their personal development. In the new edition of the bestseller “Wisdom of Menopause”, Christiane Northrup has compiled the latest studies and case studies and reports on her wealth of experience from her practice.
