Samostanska medicina: snagom sv. Hildegarde
The work explores the rich tradition of medieval monastic medicine, drawing on the teachings of St. Hildegard of Bingen, a Benedictine nun and pioneer of a holistic approach to health.
In the first part of the book, the authors describe in detail the healing methods that St. Hildegard developed by observing the person as a whole. Her therapeutic procedures include the use of medicinal herbs, bloodletting, baths, the use of healing stones, and emphasizing the importance of faith and love in the healing process. This approach integrates physical, spiritual, and emotional health, offering a comprehensive view of healing.
The second part of the book contains a practical health lexicon, which provides specific advice for the natural treatment of various ailments. The lexicon is rich in examples and recommendations, making it a useful manual for everyday use.
