E-BOOK
Understanding is indeed a task, even the main task of man, if not the only one that distinguishes him from other living creatures, since all his other tasks are in fact derivatives of the first.
Andre Mercier (1913–1999)

HOLISTICS OR BIOHACKING?
UNDERSTANDING OUR BODY
E-BOOK, PART 1 – SKIN
Cosmetics, aesthetic medicine, dietetics, mindfulness, wellbeing, and biohacking are the fields that currently capture our attention. We aspire to live better, healthier, and more beautifully. We want to have it all. These areas are evolving rapidly, bringing with them a wealth of valuable knowledge, but also contradictory, misleading, and even harmful information.
We know more about health, yet we place too much emphasis on our appearance. We define ourselves through the eyes of others and forget the values that are truly important in life. We strive for perfection, not only in our physical appearance and image but also in our pursuit of being “perfect”. The internet, society, social media, experts, influencers, and non-experts all promote various techniques and viewpoints, which are often contradictory. In all of this, we lose sight of ourselves and the importance of simply being ourselves. We are lost.
This e-book offers a clear explanation of how the human body functions. Its aim is to help you understand the relationships between the organs that make up the complex system that is our body. I describe the principles of physiology, biology, biochemistry, and physics that subtly affect you every second. Perhaps, after reading it, you will reflect on and recognise the crucial role you play in your life and the impact you have on yourself, your health, your wellbeing, and your time, which is both limited and a luxury.
This e-book is for everyone: for young readers, to learn from the mistakes of previous generations; for mature readers, both scientific and humanistic minds; for professionals, to share knowledge with others; and for everyday people, offering valuable insights for daily life.
The e-book is hardcover, beautifully produced, with gilding and embossing, and an additional dust jacket to protect it from damage. It has an album-like format, thick, natural-colored paper, and three ribbons for marking. It features beautiful photographs and illustrations for a better understanding of the body’s functions. Currently, the edition is in a LIMITED edition.
About the Author
I am a cosmetologist and health promoter by profession. I used to lecture at a university, and now I educate the wider community in my clinic and on social media. Since 2017, I have been working to change the general perception of health and skin health—I created the first cosmetology clinic in Poland with a mission focused on a holistic approach to the well-being of our body.
When creating SKINLAB, my aim was to share, above all, what I love: my knowledge, practice, and the passion that has been with me for many years. Today, I want to educate and demonstrate how you can easily influence your health, including your skin, as it is your largest organ. The skin performs many essential functions, including protecting us from the outside world.
Our body consists of interacting molecules; it is a blend of physics, biology, physiology, and chemistry. It is an extraordinary and unique combination of interconnected factors. All of this is fascinating, beautiful, and impacts our health, including the health of our skin.
This book was created out of a desire to share knowledge, and I hope it will contribute to improving the way you live.
Cheers,
Asia
