This entry in the popular Little Bit of series introduces the ancient healing practice of Ayurveda.   Known as the "grandparent" of modern medicine and the sister philosophy of yoga, Ayurveda lets patients take control of their own health by focusing on prevention, not medical intervention. Practitioners become active participants in their own wellness by managing stress, consuming healing foods, and understanding which remedies work for their particular body/mind types. A Little Bit of Ayurveda explores the history, philosophy, and practical application of this ancient and relevant system: it looks at Ayurveda's influence on both Eastern and Western medicines; outlines the "five element theory" and the doshas; reveals how disease manifests itself; and offers simple rituals to keep you balanced, from seasonal eating and deep belly breathing to dry brushing and tongue scraping. A quiz at the end helps you complete an Ayurvedic self-evaluation . . . and starts you on the path to wellness!

The Caveman Way to Get Healthy-er is an invitation to rediscover health through the wisdom of our ancient ancestors. Near Lake Superior, a fisherman reels in a Neanderthal encased in ice.  Frozen alive, the Neanderthal thaws overnight as his rescuer sleeps.  The fisherman wakes to a mammoth dilemma: how does one take care of this primitive human ancestor?  Conversely, the Neanderthal is baffled by his human descendant’s ignorance of basic survival skills, like eating, moving, and resting.  The scenario begs the question: who is truly more primitive?  This resource embarks on a light-hearted journey exploring 15 simple and effective natural health practices that can jump-start the healing process for a range of conditions, including obesity, diabetes, addiction, and cancer. Advocating for a return to more natural self-care methods, The Caveman Way to Get Healthy-er illuminates the body's internal processes to reveal why these care instructions make so much sense.  Created for those whose health improvements have been stalled by time, energy, or financial constraints, this guidebook activates the "can do" part of one’s brain, ensuring that meaningful progress is within reach.
