What Are Nuclear Weapons For? - Patricia Shamai

Peacekeepers, effective deterrent or potential cause of ultimate disaster? Understanding what nuclear weapons are for has never been more essential. This book traces the history of nuclear weapons from their first use in 1945 when they brought the Second World War to an end, through the Cold War when they gave rise to peace movements and disarmament efforts to the ominous nuclear landscape today. Shamai shows how nuclear weapons have, to date, been a deterrent by raising the stakes of war and thereby reducing the chances of certain kinds of conflict. But, she warns, this is not a permanent situation â “ its continuation depends on the worldâ ™s reaction to this threat and ongoing vigilance.

Trávniček VIREX Palo Santo – tinktura 50 ml – Trávníček

Virex Palo Santo – přírodní rituál pro uvolnění, relaxaci a péči o pokožku a sliznice V dnešním rychlém tempu se na těle odráží napětí, stres i únava . Ať už po práci, tréninku nebo během hektických dnů. Pokožka může působit napjatě, reaguje přecitlivěle a člověk má přirozenou potřebu se na chvíli zastavit a uvolnit. Právě pro tyto chvíle byla vytvořena tinktura VIREX Palo Santo – bylinný extrakt určený k lokálnímu použití, který v sobě spojuje tradiční bylinky a charakteristickou vůni exotického dřeva stromu Palo Santo . Podporuje pocit relaxace, navozuje příjemnou atmosféru a poskytuje pokožce jemnou péči bez parfemace a barviv. Co je Palo Santo a odkud pochází? Palo Santo („ svaté dřevo “) pochází z oblasti Jižní Ameriky, zejména z Peru a Ekvádoru. Jedná se o dřevo stromu Bursera graveolens , které má bohatou tradici v duchovních, očistných a relaxačních rituálech. Po přirozeném opadání a dozrání získává charakteristickou vůni – jemně nasládlou, citrusově-dřevitou, s uklidňujícím účinkem na smysly. Tradičně se Palo Santo používalo: k navození pocitu harmonie během meditace, při relaxačních rituálech , k očistě prostoru od „těžké energie“, jako součást masážních a aromaterapeutických olejů, v rámci rituálů péče o tělo a pokožku V tinktuře VIREX Palo Santo doplňuje bylinné extrakty tak, aby vytvořily harmonický zážitek vhodný pro večerní relax, masáž napjatých oblastí či každodenní chvilku pro sebe. Aktivní složky: Šišák bajkalský (Scutellaria baicalensis) je tradičně používán v kosmetice ke zklidnění pokožky. Je známý vysokým obsahem flavonoidů , které podporují komfort pokožky při napětí. Přispívá také k celkovému uvolnění organismu. Cordyceps sinensis (housenice čínská) se často používá v lokálních přípravcích pro pocit revitalizace. Podporuje příjemný tonizační efekt při lokální aplikaci. Šalvěj červenokořenná (Salvia miltiorrhiza) je bylina známá svými blahodárnými účinky na pokožku. Pomáhá navodit pocit prohřátí pokožky a lokálního uvolnění. Známé jsou také její účinky při nadměrném pocení, k osvěžení dechu, při bolestech v krku a ústní dutině, během menopauzy a při hormonálních výkyvech. Právenka latnatá (Andrographis paniculata) je důležitou součástí ájurvédy a často se používá v přípravcích pro péči o pokožku zatíženou stresem. Podporuje pocit čistoty a rovnováhy pokožky. Palo Santo (Bursera graveolens) je známé svou nezaměnitelnou dřevitou vůní. Navozuje relaxační atmosféru oblíbenou při meditacích, masážích a večerních rituálech.

Domorodé komunity jej po staletí zařazovaly do svých rituálů a očistných praktik především pro jeho aromatické a spirituální vlastnosti. Moderní výzkum se zaměřuje zejména na obsah aromatických látek, terpenů a fytonutrientů , které jsou předmětem řady studií. Tinktury na bázi Palo Santo se proto někdy využívají také jako součást terapie při potížích, jako jsou například: záněty tlustého střeva, regenerace plic, jater, močopohlavní soustavy, oslabená imunita, respirační infekce , angíny, poškozené sliznice a čištění krve, uvolnění psychiky, únava, zlepšení spánku a vyčerpání. Nejedná se však o léčivý přípravek a vnitřní užívání je vždy na individuálním zvážení, přičemž je důležité respektovat doporučení výrobce.
