"We promote wellness, longevity, radiance, and bliss when we follow simple, nurturing practices," says Horst Rechelbacher, the founder of Aveda, the natural, aromatherapy-based, hair-, skin-, and body-care products line. In addition to heading Aveda, he is also an environmental activist and a seeker who has studied the world's spiritual and self-healing traditions. He says the key to wellness, inner harmony, and beauty is a process that is eased by returning to nature and to the wisdom of the oldest cultures and rituals.

Rechelbacher offers a selection of rituals based on India's Ayurvedic healing system--"simple, gentle practices"--many of them using essential oils. He presents the philosophies behind the value of nurturing rituals, an explanation of how you can individualize your choices according to your own constitution (based on Ayurvedic principles), then a selection of soothing rituals that you can incorporate into your own life. These include breath, touch, movement, food, herbs, meditation, relaxation, and a variety of cleansing, healing, and body-care practices (including cosmetics) using essential oils and natural products (from Aveda, of course). He encourages you to invent your own daily regimen that nurtures and pleases you. A helpful glossary of essential oils includes a wealth of information about each one. Aveda Rituals is the next best thing to a day at one of the company's gloriously rejuvenating spas. --Joan Price -- Dieser Text bezieht sich auf eine vergriffene oder nicht verf�gbare Ausgabe dieses Titels.

From Library Journal

Rechelbacher, founder of AvedaTM Cosmetics, shows how his routine of meditation, massage, aromatherapy, natural foods, and ecologically friendly habits (including business habits) contribute to his holistic well-being. The book describes rituals that calm and re-energize the body, including self- and partner massage and, briefly, the Ayurvedic medicine (the three doshas and their respective needs). The section on herbs is extremely basic and without much instructionAand the beauty chapters are a thinly veiled commercial for Aveda products. A pleasant introduction to Ayurvedic principles but of limited value overall.ASusan B. Hagloch, Tuscarawas Cty. P.L., New Philadelphia, OH

A truly fantastic book! 6. August 2001

Von Ein Kunde

Format:Taschenbuch

From the first to the last page I was absolutely captivated by this book. My first impression was that it is well written, has a magnificent layout and shows really ravishing pictures. Concerning the content I don't feel less enthusiastic. The book doesn't promote quick-fix solutins for any health, beauty or well-being topics but teaches simple but life-changing methods and small rituals for a life closer in touch on one hand with nature, the enviroment around you, and on the other hand with your soul, your inner self. A large part of the book is devoted to the concept of Ajurveda and the topic is dealt with carefully, mentioning and explaining every aspect in a complex, informative but very understandable way.

Healthy living made simple 10. Dezember 1999

I have been so inspired by the simple but life-changing practices put forth in Aveda Rituals. For a long time, I had been putting off losing weight and getting healthy in every aspect of my life, and this book gave me the encouragement and practical guidance I was missing. I have changed my daily approach to living as a result, and am noticing positive differences in my health, my well-being, my work and my relationships. Plus I've lost 21 pounds. I now realize how holistic health really is - you can't be healthy in body if you're not healthy in mind and spirt, and vice-versa. I've now discovered this first-hand. This book is a valuable reference tool which I can use every day, for years to come, whether I read through it again and again, or just refer to what I've already learned.

Wonderful if you want a lifestyle change! 1. Mai 2000

This is a truly excellent book. It shows you how to feel healthy, beautiful, and on top of your life through many rejuvenation techniques. They range from the basics, such as hair care, makeup application, and healthy eating, to full-blown cleansings which involve fasting and spiritual refuge. You can really use the book in any way you want, whether you simply use a few of the tips, or you make it your Bible. Either way, it's worth the purchase.

Though the layout isn't perfect, the book is visually appealing, and soothing pictures grace many of the pages. They make the healthy lifestyle look truly tempting. One problem is that Horst Rechelbacher seems to be marketing his company, Aveda, somewhat in this book. Though I really don't see a problem with that, as Aveda is a wonderful company for total body care.

I really reccommend this book if you are ready for a beautiful lifestyle metamorphosis!
