Walking (Hardcover): Henry David Thoreau Walking (Hardcover)
Henry David Thoreau
R704 Discovery Miles 7 040 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Walking, by Henry David Thoreau - Akasha Classics, AkashaPublishing.Com - I wish to speak a word for Nature, for absolute freedom and wildness, as contrasted with a freedom and culture merely civil - to regard man as an inhabitant, or a part and parcel of Nature, rather than a member of society. I wish to make an extreme statement, if so I may make an emphatic one, for there are enough champions of civilization: the minister and the school committee and every one of you will take care of that. I have met with but one or two persons in the course of my life who understood the art of Walking, that is, of taking walks - who had a genius, so to speak, for SAUNTERING, which word is beautifully derived "from idle people who roved about the country, in the Middle Ages, and asked charity, under pretense of going a la Sainte Terre," to the Holy Land, till the children exclaimed, "There goes a Sainte-Terrer," a Saunterer, a Holy-Lander. They who never go to the Holy Land in their walks, as they pretend, are indeed mere idlers and vagabonds; but they who do go there are saunterers in the good sense, such as I mean. Some, however, would derive the word from sans terre without land or a home, which, therefore, in the good sense, will mean, having no particular home, but equally at home everywhere. For this is the secret of successful sauntering. He who sits still in a house all the time may be the greatest vagrant of all; but the saunterer, in the good sense, is no more vagrant than the meandering river, which is all the while sedulously seeking the shortest course to the sea. But I prefer the first, which, indeed, is the most probable derivation. For every walk is a sort of crusade, preached by some Peter the Hermit in us, to go forth and reconquer this Holy Land from the hands of the Infidels.

R633 Discovery Miles 6 330 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Your body is a magnificent living, self-healing ecosystem that is under siege by toxic man-made chemicals. Our connection with nature is being disrupted at the "quorum" cell language level of microbes so we cannot maintain clean, healthy ecosystem functions.

Did you know that your cells are hardwired for superhealing at the quorum cell level, a level ten times more powerful than stem cells-and that the future of our victory over disease in this dominant medical-profit system depends on your restoring the ability of your cells to talk to one another?

Quorum Superhealing puts together a sober picture of how man-made chemicals are disrupting quorum cell-to-cell communication so you stay overweight, inflamed and sick.

Dr. Paul Yanick, who survived two nearly-fatal diseases, reveals the shocking truth of how man-made pharmaceuticals and chemicals shut down his kidneys at the age of twenty and evoked near-fatal cancer. At the brink of death, he saved his life by restoring the quorum language of cells. His terrifying experiences became the catalyst for decades of research and this book which tells an amazing story of how some of the worst, most-feared diseases can be conquered by restoring quorum superhealing.

Fin Feather and Field (Hardcover): Simren Kaur Fin Feather and Field (Hardcover)
Simren Kaur
R1,103 Discovery Miles 11 030 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

To some extent, the title Fin Feather and Field is self-explanatory. Fin is more than fishing; it is an excuse to be outdoors, not just to kill but to observe nature from diverse angles. Feather is not just game-bird shooting but watching and identifying birds, rearing semi-tame peacocks and gray partridges till ready to fly, named Mustapha, Mr. Onion, and Paloma. Field involves travel, monuments and wild life sanctuaries, tracking Tahr in the Nilgiris and Bharal in snowbound North Sikkim. It is horse riding, playing golf, trekking, and mountain climbing. It is savoring a myriad cultures across India and some abroad; inviting misadventure are part of Field. Autobiographical glimpses and vignettes of army lifestyle find small nooks here and there. In short, Fin Feather and Field is a celebration of the life given and enjoyed to the hilt through over forty years, with minds open to wonder, learning, never abandoning the mindfulness of "feeling" the aura of strangers and places. Some of the best years lived in tribal India on the Chota Nagpur Plateau, braving dacoits and fearful gun-wielding Naxalites, are memorable parts of Field.

What could have been better for our family with three young boys than spending time in and around Wawona, California within the glorious Yosemite National Park? This is where we built our little cabin and spent over twenty happy, adventure-filled years! We spent every weekend, vacation and all of the holidays exploring the natural beauty surrounding our picturesque cabin. We considered Yosemite to be our back yard; it doesn't get much better than that!

Surrounded by so much natural beauty, we were drawn into the day-to-day life of Yosemite National Park; we hiked, skied and even played golf. For our family, such an adventure became even more exciting as we met and befriended the other people who lived in Yosemite; not to mention the animals deer, raccoons, coyotes, and the bears who were also our neighbors. In "Memoirs of Our Cabin in Yosemite"; and "Our Backyard Wilderness," the story of our years in the cabin nestled in Yosemite National Park comes to life!
