Nosem psa

Health, Mind & Body

Alexandra Horowitz, autorka głośnego bestsellera „Oczami psa”, w swojej nowej książce objaśnia nam, w jaki sposób psy postrzegają świat za pomocą swojego najlepiej rozwiniętego organu zmysłów, czyli nosa, i w jaki sposób również my, ludzie, możemy wykorzystać nasz niedoceniany węch. Dla psa nie istnieje coś takiego jak „świeże powietrze”. Każdy jego haust jest pełen informacji. W istocie to, czego każdy pies – oczywiście pies węszący, ale także pies drzemiący obok was na kanapie – dowiaduje się o świecie, pochodzi przede wszystkim z nosa. W książce „Nosem psa” uczona badająca zdolności poznawcze psów w pasjonujący sposób odkrywa przed nami zagadkę psiego obrazu rzeczywistości. Wyjaśniając, jak złożony świat otaczających nas woni jawi się dla psiego nosa, Horowitz zmienia w całości nasz pogląd na psy. Po przeczytaniu tej książki mamy wrażenie, że „dowąchaliśmy się” czwartego wymiaru – uwalniając się od biologicznych ludzkich ograniczeń i rozumiejąc zapachy jak nigdy wcześniej. Czujemy się, jakbyśmy sami, choćby na chwilę, byli psami.

Sexo Cool

Health, Mind & Body

• Una guía completa, amena y útil dirigida tanto a jóvenes como a cualquier lector interesado en recuperar la dimensión profunda del sexo. • Los autores entrelazan explicaciones teóricas con preguntas y consejos, además de introducir a los lectores al sexo tántrico. • Una obra que trata temas no solo estrictamente sexuales, sino también sobre las emociones o la comunicación en la pareja. Influidos por la pornografía y los medios de comunicación, los adolescentes acaban identificando las relaciones íntimas con la pasión, el encuentro casual y la búsqueda del orgasmo a cualquier precio, una imagen que los desconecta de sí mismos y priva a sus encuentros sexuales de su dimensión más profunda. Escrito para los jóvenes que ya tienen cierta experiencia en el amor o que sienten curiosidad por empezar a descubrirlo —y para todas aquellas personas que deseen recuperar una sensación profunda de amor y conexión— esta obra es una invitación a vivir la sexualidad desde la presencia, a conocer mejor el propio cuerpo y el de la pareja, a practicar a solas y en compañía, a despejar dudas, descubrir las diferencias y explorar la complementariedad. Cuando las caricias, la consciencia y las sensaciones sutiles sustituyen las técnicas y las posturas, la sexualidad se torna más sencilla y placentera.

Schwangerschafts Diät Geheimnisse

Health, Mind & Body

Auszug: Symptome einer Schwangerschaft Möglicherweise bemerken Sie einige Anzeichen und Symptome, bevor Sie überhaupt einen Schwangerschaftstest machen. Andere erscheinen Wochen später, wenn sich Ihr Hormonspiegel ändert. Verpasste Periode Eine versäumte Periode ist eines der frühesten Symptome einer Schwangerschaft (und vielleicht das klassischste). Eine versäumte Periode bedeutet jedoch nicht unbedingt, dass Sie schwanger sind, insbesondere wenn Ihr Zyklus unregelmäßig ist. Es gibt viele andere Gesundheitszustände als die Schwangerschaft, die zu einer späten oder versäumten Periode führen können. Kopfschmerzen Kopfschmerzen sind in der frühen Schwangerschaft häufig. Sie werden normalerweise durch veränderte Hormonspiegel und erhöhtes Blutvolumen verursacht. Wenden Sie sich an Ihren Arzt, wenn Ihre Kopfschmerzen nicht verschwinden oder besonders schmerzhaft sind. Entdeckung Bei einigen Frauen können in der frühen Schwangerschaft leichte Blutungen und Flecken auftreten. Diese Blutung ist meistens das Ergebnis einer Implantation. Die Implantation erfolgt normalerweise ein bis zwei Wochen nach der Befruchtung. Blutungen in der frühen Schwangerschaft können auch auf relativ geringfügige Erkrankungen wie Infektionen oder Reizungen zurückzuführen sein. Letzteres betrifft häufig die Oberfläche des Gebärmutterhalses (die während der Schwangerschaft sehr empfindlich ist). Blutungen können auch manchmal auf eine schwerwiegende Schwangerschaftskomplikation hinweisen, wie z. B. eine Fehlgeburt, eine Eileiterschwangerschaft oder eine Plazenta Previa. Wenden Sie sich bei Bedenken immer an Ihren Arzt. Gewichtszunahme Sie können erwarten, in den ersten Monaten der Schwangerschaft zwischen 1 und 4 Pfund zuzunehmen. Die Gewichtszunahme macht sich zu Beginn Ihres zweiten Trimesters deutlicher bemerkbar. Schwangerschaftsinduzierte Hypotonie Während der Schwangerschaft entwickelt sich manchmal Bluthochdruck. Verschiedene Faktoren können Ihr Bluthochdruck-Risiko erhöhen, darunter: •Übergewicht oder Fettleibigkeit •Rauchen •Vorgeschichte oder Familienanamnese schwangerschaftsbedingter Hypertonie Sodbrennen Während der Schwangerschaft freigesetzte Hormone können manchmal die Klappe zwischen Magen und Speiseröhre entspannen. Wenn Magensäure austritt, kann dies zu Sodbrennen führen. Verstopfung Hormonveränderungen während der frühen Schwangerschaft können Ihr Verdauungssystem verlangsamen. Infolgedessen können Sie Verstopfung bekommen. Krämpfe Wenn sich die Muskeln in Ihrer Gebärmutter zu dehnen und auszudehnen beginnen, spüren Sie möglicherweise ein Zuggefühl, das Menstruationsbeschwerden ähnelt. Wenn neben Ihren Krämpfen Flecken oder Blutungen auftreten, kann dies auf eine Fehlgeburt oder eine Eileiterschwangerschaft hinweisen.

Jak odzyskać siebie i utracone więzi. Wyjść z depresji i odnaleźć nadzieję

Health, Mind & Body

• Czy często bywasz przygnębiony?• Czy życie wydaje ci się pozbawioną sensu szarpaniną?• Czy niejednego ranka nie masz ochoty wstać z łóżka, a najprostsze sprawy zupełnie cię przerastają? Autor tej książki Johann Hari, znakomity i nagradzany brytyjski dziennikarz, od wielu lat boryka się z depresją. Ponieważ zaproponowane przez lekarzy rozwiązania przynosiły mu tylko krótkotrwałą ulgę, postanowił bliżej przyjrzeć się przyczynom odczuwanego przez siebie niepokoju i lęku. Spotykał się ze specjalistami, psychologami i zwykłymi ludźmi, słuchał wywodów naukowych i dramatycznych opowieści.Zebrane przez niego materiały rewolucjonizują naszą dotychczasową wiedzę i wskazują dziewięć przyczyn depresji i lęków, które niszczą nasze zdrowie psychiczne. Utracone więzi, bo to właśnie o nich mowa, można jednak odzyskać, a tym samym odzyskać siebie i nadzieję. Bestsellerowa książka Hariego podpowiada, w jaki sposób zbudować pozytywne relacje z sobą i ze światem i uzyskać trwałą poprawę samopoczucia. Jak pisze Johann Hari, „pora, żebyśmy wszyscy wrócili do domu”. Kiedy w końcu zrozumiałem, co się dzieje – ze mną i z tak wieloma osobami podobnymi do mnie – dowiedziałem się, że czekają na nas prawdziwe antydepresanty. Nie są to chemiczne antydepresanty, które były nieskuteczne w przypadku tak wielu z nas. Nie jest to coś, co można kupić albo połknąć. Ale mogą stać się początkiem prawdziwej drogi, umożliwiającej nam wyjście z bólu.

The Yoga of Integral Knowledge

Health, Mind & Body

Sri Aurobindo's philosophy as "an original synthesis of the Indian and Western traditions."-R. Puligandla Sri Aurobindo, Indian philosopher, yogi and guru, created a spiritual practice he called Integral Yoga. The central theme of his vision was the evolution of human life into a divine life. He believed in a spiritual realization that not only liberated but transformed human nature, enabling a divine life on earth. He sought to make us aware of "the same superior law [that] governs matter and spirit".EXCERPT: "THE SELF, the Divine, the Supreme Reality, the All, the Transcendent,-the One in all these aspects is then the object of Yogic knowledge. Ordinary objects, the external appearances of life and matter, the psychology of our thoughts and actions, the perception of the forces of the apparent world can be part of this knowledge, but only in so far as it is part of the manifestation of the One. It becomes at once evident that the knowledge for which Yoga strives must be different from what men ordinarily understand by the word. For we mean ordinarily by knowledge an intellectual appreciation of the facts of life, mind and matter and the laws that govern them. This is a knowledge founded upon our sense-perception and upon reasoning from our sense-perceptions and it is undertaken partly for the pure satisfaction of the intellect, partly for practical efficiency and the added power which knowledge gives in managing our lives and the lives of others, in utilising for human ends the overt or secret forces of Nature and in helping or hurting, in saving and ennobling or in oppressing and destroying our fellow-men. Yoga, indeed, is commensurate with all life and can include all these subjects and objects."
