Five thousand years old, Ayurvedic massage has been shown to still the mind and body by lowering metabolic rates and inspiring feelings of peace and calm. Often administered as a part of a three-, five-, or seven-day program, these treatments are an integral part of deep cleansing, rejuvenation, and life-extension Ayurvedic programs called panchakarma or kya kalpa. This book by a noted practitioner features more than 15 of these treatments, each described in step-by-step detail and some synchronized with two therapists for up to two hours in length. It provides the reader with all the tools necessary to begin Ayurvedic treatments as a part of a spa menu or massage therapy program.

Esst Weizen!
Weizen und Milchprodukte essen ohne Angst
Verzichten Sie auf Gluten oder Milchprodukte? Das muss nicht sein! Ein wissenschaftlich fundierter Ansatz zeigt, wie Sie diese Lebensmittel sicher in Ihre Ernährung zurückführen können. Dr. John Douillard, erfahrener Ernährungsberater im Leistungssport, thematisiert die Ursachen von Glutenunverträglichkeit. Viele Ernährungstrends behaupten, dass Weizen zu Gewichtszunahme oder geistigen Beeinträchtigungen führt, was jedoch nur teilweise richtig ist. Der Schlüssel liegt in der Verdauung: Eine Störung kann die Darmwand schädigen und unverdaute Nahrungsbestandteile sowie Umweltgifte ins Lymphsystem gelangen lassen, was zu Allergien und gesundheitlichen Problemen führt. Während der Verzicht auf Weizen und Milchprodukte Symptome lindern kann, beseitigt er nicht die Ursachen. Der Ansatz in diesem Buch zielt darauf ab, die Verdauungsfähigkeit zu stärken und Schadstoffe abzubauen. Unterstützt von über 600 wissenschaftlichen Studien, bietet das Buch einen revolutionären Leitfaden, um Ihr „Verdauungsfeuer“ zu entfachen und die Fähigkeit zur Verdauung wiederherzustellen. Es enthüllt neue wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse über die Vorteile von Weizen und Milchprodukten, zeigt Wege, um Nahrungstoxine zu vermeiden, und bietet Methoden zur Verbesserung der Verdauung, zur Befreiung von verstopften Lymphgefäßen sowie zur Senkung des Blutzuckerspiegels.
