Aphrodisiacs
Derived from the Greek goddess of beauty and love Aphrodite, aphrodisiacs refer to foods and stimulants, certain herbs or medicines that are lust-enhancing.
Autonomic nervous system
The autonomic nervous system regulates the life-sustaining basic functions such as metabolism, respiration, blood circulation or water balance around the clock without conscious control by the brain. It is effectively divided into two systems: the activity-enhancing sympathetic and the activity-reducing parasympathetic nervous system. On the whole, the autonomic nervous system ensures a healthy body balance and intact vital functions.
Ayurveda
The Ayurvedic teaching goes back to a 5,000-year-old holistic healing art, making it the oldest surviving ever. Translated, Ayurveda means "knowledge of life" and to be in the inner balance with the own constitution of body and mind as well as nature and the environment. Thereafter, our life energies consist of five elements:
- earth - stands for one's own stability,
- water - stands for the vehicle of life,
- fire - stands for the transformation in one's energy balance,
- air - stands for our freedom of movement,
- ether - stands for that mental potential.
In the Ayurvedic head massage Abhyanga, a gentle touch of the energy points in the head area releases emotional ballast. This promotes visual and auditory strength as well as the ability to concentrate. The Shiroabhyanga full-body massage stimulates energy points for stress reduction and well-being. The mental and physical detoxification is part of the ayurvedic cleansing cure. It invigorates our cardiovascular system and strengthens organs, bones and the nervous system.
