Ayurveda Pregnancy by Jill C. Blake

About Featured Book: Ayurveda Pregnancy Using Ayurveda for Optimal Pregnancy Health and Postpartum Recovery by Jill C. Blake

Here’s what 5,000 years of medical wisdom have to say about pregnancy:

Modern medicine has created a big rift between body, mind, and soul.

For a long time, and even today, mainstream medicine has focused on the separation of each of the body’s systems, studying and treating them independently from the whole.

It’s only recently that it started endorsing an idea that ancient medical practices understood all along. Our health is much more complex than one ailing part of our body and is, in fact, the sum of who we are, what we do, how we behave, and how we feel.

You may be at this point in your life where you’re ready to have a baby, but you’re also looking for a way to have a healthy pregnancy both for you and your child.

With a gentle and comprehensive approach to health, you may find everything you’ve been looking for within the teachings of Ayurveda.

Ayurveda isn’t only the science of holistic medicine but also of prevention.

It’ll allow for a healthier pregnancy, minimizing potential complications by looking at what you eat, how your environment promotes your wellbeing, mental health, and general lifestyle, and then making individualized plans to fit your physical and energetic needs.

The body is smarter than you think, and its connection to natural laws has been quite undermined by modern medicine.

By balancing your energies following the Ayurvedic approach to better health, you certainly can give yourself the gift of an uncomplicated pregnancy.

And the best part is that you can do it all without having to subject yourself to invasive medical procedures or toxic meds.

In Ayurveda Pregnancy, you will discover:

● The basic principles of the Ayurvedic approach to health so that you can finally take control of your wellbeing and that of your baby
● The Ayurvedic secret to a comfortable and seamless pregnancy
● How painful menstruation is a sign of an unhealthy reproductive system, as well as natural remedies that will drastically increase your chances of conception
● The Ayurvedic wisdom on food and how you can use your diet to your advantage to counter common pregnancy difficulties
● A month-by-month food supplement plan that will guide your body through the three Ayurvedic stages of pregnancy
● The crucial lifestyle changes you need to make to allow optimal development of your fetus
● Postpartum Ayurvedic care to get you back on your feet in no time

And much more.

Many women have difficult pregnancies with complications that can go beyond the scope of mainstream medicine.

The oldest medicine in the world has a lot of wisdom to offer, especially when it comes to the miracle of life.

With the holistic care approach of Ayurveda, you can go through this exciting period of your life filled only with excitement and anticipation.

About Featured Book: Evil Robots, Killer Computers, and Other Myths: The Truth About AI and the Future of Humanity by Steven Shwartz

$.99 during the month of June!

Are AI robots and computers really going to take over the world?

Longtime artificial intelligence (AI) researcher and investor Steve Shwartz has grown frustrated with the fear-inducing hype around AI in popular culture and media. Yes, today’s AI systems are miracles of modern engineering, but no, humans do not have to fear robots seizing control or taking over all our jobs.

In this exploration of the fascinating and ever-changing landscape of artificial intelligence, Dr. Shwartz explains how AI works in simple terms. After reading this captivating book, you will understand

• the inner workings of today’s amazing AI technologies, including facial recognition, self-driving cars, machine translation, chatbots, deepfakes, and many others;
• why today’s artificial intelligence technology cannot evolve into the AI of science fiction lore;
• the crucial areas where we will need to adopt new laws and policies in order to counter threats to our safety and personal freedoms resulting from the use of AI.

So although we don’t have to worry about evil robots rising to power and turning us into pets—and we probably never will—artificial intelligence is here to stay, and we must learn to separate fact from fiction and embrace how this amazing technology enhances our world.

Hipatia de Alejandría

About : Hipatia de Alejandría by Laurel A. Rockefeller

“Cuando el mundo occidental cayó en la oscuridad, ella se atrevió a defender la Luz.

Nacida en 355 d.C., tras el reinado de Constantino, Hipatia de Alejandría vivía en un Imperio Romano colapsado, un mundo donde la obediencia a las autoridades religiosas venció a la ciencia, donde la razón y la lógica amenazaban el nuevo orden mundial. Era un mundo al borde de la Edad Oscura, un mundo que decidía la cuestión de la ciencia contra la religión, libertad contra la ortodoxia, tolerancia contra el odio.

Durante más de 40 años, Hipatia estuvo entre las edades oscuras y la luz de la filosofía clásica, las artes y las ciencias. Aunque ninguno de sus libros sobrevivió a la agresiva quema de libros de los fanáticos religiosos, su legado sigue siendo el de una de los mejores científicos de todos los tiempos.

Esta es su fascinante historia real.

I Once Was Lost, but Now I’m Found by Laura Koerber

About Featured Book: I Once Was Lost, but Now I'm Found by Laura Koerber

I Once Was Lost is the story of the largest rescue of dogs to succeed without support of local authorities. The rescue took over a year and featured protests, assault, and lawsuits, before over one hundred dogs and one snake were saved from abuse and neglect. Also included: information on how to evaluate a rescue, how to identify a hoarder, difficulties with the enforcement of laws pertaining to animal care, and suggestions for how to put puppy mills, failed rescues, and fake rescues out of business.
From Matt McAvoy of Kindle Book Review:
“Laura’s writing is quite lovely – heartfelt and sincere, with a stern presentation of the facts. The book is incredibly well-researched and intelligently considered, and the cruel treatment is contextualized not by anger, but by balanced collation of events, studies and dog behavioral training practices. This is an important book which needed to be written by a disciplined professional and an animal lover, both of which clearly apply to Laura. She is a very articulate and hard-working author.”
