The Magical MEND Program for Lifelong Vitality
Did you know that regular meditators are twelve years younger physiologically than non-meditators? That physical exercise is the closest thing we have to a panacea for staying youthful? That there are foods in your kitchen right now that can give you the enviable “glow”? Or that your body can’t do its night cleanup without some help from you? Unpack these vitality factors and more with the Magical MEND program — Meditation, Exercise, Nourishment, and Detoxification — from author and podcaster Victoria Moran, an “OG vegan” since the early 1980s. “Mend” your ways, change your life, claim your ageless attitude.
Age Like a Yogi with Ahimsa Ayurveda
By intently observing nature, ancient Indian sages called rishis codified the relationship between nature-aligned lifestyle practices and human health, calling this Ayurveda, the science of life, a system of healthcare and self-care acknowledged today by the World Health Organization. Ahimsa Ayurveda shares these life-affirming practices in a 100% vegan way. You’ll learn a health-supporting daily routine, get a fresh take on staying hydrated, and find out why when you dine, exercise, and sleep can be almost as important as that you do them. In addition, you’ll learn Ayurveda’s simple, revolutionary concept for slowing the hands of time.
