El Tao de la Vida Sana by Daniel Reid Pdf

Vivimos en una sociedad que no sabe traducir en bienestar f&ísico y psicol&ógico su riqueza material. El progreso tecnol&ógico de Occidente no ha sido acompa&ñado por un paralelo inter&és en la protecci&ón de nuestro cuerpo y la prevenci&ón de las enfermedades. A lo largo de los 5.000 a&ños de la historia de China, la prevenci&ón ha sido la clave para la salud humana, considerada responsabilidad principal de la persona. La gran aportaci&ón de la medicina china ha sido descubrir el papel que tienen para el bienestar factores como una incorrecta alimentaci&ón, los pensamientos negativos y la contaminaci&ón medioambiental. Las sustancias t&óxicas presentes en el agua, los aditivos qu&ímicos de los alimentos, el humo de los cigarrillos y las emanaciones de los veh&ículos son algunas de las numerosas amenazas diarias a nuestro bienestar. &¿Qu&é podemos hacer para defendernos de estos ataques? En El Tao de la depuraci&ón encontrar&ás la respuesta: una propuesta eficaz y natural para combatir la agresi&ón de las toxinas, purificar el organismo, fortalecer los mecanismos de defensa natural de nuestro cuerpo y gozar de buena salud. Existe una alarmante correlaci&ón entre la contaminaci&ón atmosf&érica, la mala alimentaci&ón y nuestro bienestar. Las toxinas presentes en el aire, en el agua potable y en los alimentos ponen a prueba d&ía tras d&ía la salud de nuestro organismo. En tanto que no se apliquen medidas eficaces para limpiar el planeta, tenemos que empezar por purificarnos nosotros mismos. Combinando la antigua sabidur&ía oriental y los &últimos avances m&édicos occidentales, El Tao de la depuraci&ón te ofrece la soluci&ón definitiva para gozar de buena salud y preservarla durante muchos a&ños.

The Tao of Detox by Daniel Reid Pdf

A practical guide to preventing and treating the toxic assault on our bodies • Shows how the practices of periodic detox and “rational retox” can counteract the toxic nature of our modern lifestyles, diets, and environment • Provides ancient Chinese methods and remedies that help the body repair itself • Includes detoxification techniques, formulas, and exercises that work within 10 days Despite the wonders of modern medicine, the state of human health throughout the world is eroding at an alarming rate. The long-term accumulation of toxins and acid waste in our bodies--both from the chemically contaminated air we breathe and water we drink as well as the toxins we ingest in the form of low quality food, preservatives, and additives--damages our organs, corrodes our joints and arteries, enervates our nervous system, and inhibits our immune system. Chronic pain and fatigue, hypertension and heart failure, cancer, diabetes, arthritis, indigestion, insomnia, and even acne, are all caused by the long-term accumulation of toxins in our bodies. In The Tao of Detox Daniel Reid combines traditional Eastern practices and the latest of modern Western thinking to offer detoxification methods that can repair in as little as seven to ten days much of the long-term damage done. He provides breathing exercises, massage techniques, and soft exercises such as yoga and tai chi that help the body to heal itself. He also explains the importance of “rational retoxification,” which allows the careful reintroduction of less healthy substances, and offers ways to counteract those toxins we can’t--or don’t want to--avoid, including alcohol and tobacco. Reid explains that, just as we care for our cars with regular tune-ups, by practicing periodic detox as well as “rational retox,” we can enjoy long and healthy lives and still be able to “eat, drink, and be merry.”

The Case for Marriage by Linda Waite,Maggie Gallagher Pdf

A groundbreaking look at marriage, one of the most basic and universal of all human institutions, which reveals the emotional, physical, economic, and sexual benefits that marriage brings to individuals and society as a whole. The Case for Marriage is a critically important intervention in the national debate about the future of family. Based on the authoritative research of family sociologist Linda J. Waite, journalist Maggie Gallagher, and a number of other scholars, this book’s findings dramatically contradict the anti-marriage myths that have become the common sense of most Americans. Today a broad consensus holds that marriage is a bad deal for women, that divorce is better for children when parents are unhappy, and that marriage is essentially a private choice, not a public institution. Waite and Gallagher flatly contradict these assumptions, arguing instead that by a broad range of indices, marriage is actually better for you than being single or divorced– physically, materially, and spiritually. They contend that married people live longer, have better health, earn more money, accumulate more wealth, feel more fulfillment in their lives, enjoy more satisfying sexual relationships, and have happier and more successful children than those who remain single, cohabit, or get divorced. The Case for Marriage combines clearheaded analysis, penetrating cultural criticism, and practical advice for strengthening the institution of marriage, and provides clear, essential guidelines for reestablishing marriage as the foundation for a healthy and happy society. “A compelling defense of a sacred union. The Case for Marriage is well written and well argued, empirically rigorous and learned, practical and commonsensical.” -- William J. Bennett, author of The Book of Virtues “Makes the absolutely critical point that marriage has been misrepresented and misunderstood.” -- The Wall Street Journal www.broadwaybooks.com

Wetland Plants by Julie K. Cronk,M. Siobhan Fennessy Pdf

A detailed account of the biology and ecology of vascular wetland plants and their applications in wetland plant science, Wetland Plants: Biology and Ecology presents a synthesis of wetland plant studies and reviews from biology, physiology, evolution, genetics, community and population ecology, environmental science, and engineering. It provides a thorough discussion of the range of wetland plants adaptations to conditions such as life in water or saturated soils, high salt or high sulfur, as well as low light and low carbon dioxide levels. The authors include the latest research on the development of plant communities in newly restored or created wetlands and on the use of wetland plants as indicators of ecological integrity and of wetland boundaries. Over 140 figures, including over 70 original photographs, allow you to visualize the concepts, 40 tables give you easy access to definitions and data, and international examples provide you with a broad base of information. The growing consensus in wetlands literature and research suggests that methods are needed to assess the ecological health or integrity of wetlands, to set goals for wetland restoration, and to track the status and trends of wetlands. Wetland plants are emerging as important indicators, and becoming an important part of this research. Wetland Plants: Biology and Ecology contains up-to-date information on this increasingly important area in wetlands technology.

Sport is a global phenomenon engaging billions of people and generating annual revenues of more than US$ 145 billion.

Avicenna and the Visionary Recital by Henry Corbin Pdf

In this work a distinguished scholar of Islamic religion examines the mysticism and psychological thought of the great eleventh-century Persian philosopher and physician Avicenna (Ibn Sina), author of over a hundred works on theology, logic, medicine, and mathematics. Henry Corbin's discovery in an Istanbul library of the manuscript of a Persian translation of and commentary on Avicenna's Hayy ibn Yaqzan, written in Arabic, led him to an analysis of three of Avicenna's mystical "recitals." These form an initiatory cycle leading the adept along the path of spiritual progress. In Part I Corbin summarizes the great themes that show the philosophical situation of Avicennan man in the cosmos and presents translations of these three great Avicennan recitals. Part II is a complete translation, with notes, of the Persian commentary. Originally published in 1960. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
