About this product

Product Information

This book is infused with the Slavic wisdom and folk healing passed on to Zuza Zak by her two Polish grandmothers. It's a beautifully illustrated treasure trove of the old ways of Eastern Europe, full of little rituals and remedies to make your life gentler, sweeter and more joyful. Discover: Natural remedies, such as using plantain for cuts and grazes, brewing herbal teas for different kinds of coughs and making calendula ointment for skin complaints. Fragrant homemade beauty products, from an oat bundle cleanser to lilac body oil to a strawberry face mask. Delicious nutritious recipes such as 'Elderflower Miodownik Cake for Immunity and the Sheer Joy of it", and "Slow-cooked Beetroot Barszcz Stew with Horseradish for Vitality" and "Fermented Peas and Radishes to Lower Cholesterol". Rituals to honour the passing year, from spring-cleaning with a sage spray to fortune-telling with wildflower wreaths at midsummer to making animal-shaped votive beads to celebrate New Year. Folktales and mythology to connect to the ancient symbolism of nature: wolves, ravens, sacred trees, firebirds, water spirits and more! Season by season, use this book to gently guide you to a more natural Earth-focused rhythm, encouraging your body and mind to thrive.

"This is a wonderful read. I really enjoyed getting a view on how my Slavic sisters' and brothers' practices. The recipes, both nourishing and nurturing, are a great addition. But most of all, I love the folktales and stories that bring the past to the present. This was such a feel good book, that I found myself smiling and coming back to different sections repeatedly over the next few days. I'll continue to do that over time as this one really hit home with me!" - NetGalley review "Absolutely loved this book, from the author's personal story and history in how this book came about to the journey the book takes you on.From season to season from herbs and recipes to use them in the author clearly and creatively laid out everything in this book, not missing anything you may need to complete recipes and understand Slavic culture.

Excellent! Retrostar Music is a very fair seller - they gave me a 5% discount on top of an already great price! They also communicated the status of my order quite frequently. The CD I ordered came in a box with plenty of wrapping paper to ensure it would not get beaten up in shipping. Usually sellers just send CDs in envelopes, so I was pleasantly surprised when this arrived in a box. The CD itself is in perfect condition. A+ experience! I would highly recommend this seller!

"Moneyball" is an old/new movie/DVD that I haven't seen. "Retrostar Music" as seller had some of Mr. Pitts movies & this was labelled "New", I decided to purchase it. The seller sent all I ordered with FREE shipping &discounted the price of all as well. It took less than a week - six days - for my complete order to arrive & they were all carefully packaged & arrived in two boxes. If I ever have a question regarding what else is in the seller's inventory, I always receive a very prompt reply.
