Reviews
You are holding a treasure for women everywhere who are seeking help, balance,
and attunement to the power of their moon cycle from the wisdom of Ayurveda and yoga as a way of life, rhythm and harmony with nature
This book is a solution for the prominent barriers I faced while starting my Ayurveda practice in the UK ... Although Anja has indicated that the level of information in this book is mainly for yoga teachers and practitioners, every woman in my view should be equipped with this knowledge to guide her choices and help deliver the optimum possibility of living life to the fullest. -- Dr. Shijoe Mathew Anchery BAMS PG Dip in Panchakarma PGDCRRA
