Audible, a leading provider and creator of premium audio storytelling, is pleased to announce the release of The Book of Holistic Beauty, an Audible Original, written and narrated by the esteemed beauty journalist Vasudha Rai. This audiobook promises to revolutionize conventional beauty perspectives through a comprehensive exploration of holistic beauty practices.
Vasudha Rai is a well-known author and columnist, with experience of over two decades in the beauty and wellness industry. Now, she brings her expertise to the audio format, encapsulating a wide range of topics from age-appropriate beauty routines to the impact of meditation, nutraceuticals, and gut health on the skin.
The Audible Original goes beyond surface-level beauty concerns, addressing trending topics such as injectables, derma facials, and DIY skincare. In a digital age where misinformation is rampant on social media, the author aims to debunk misconceptions, addressing key concerns plaguing the beauty industry. Her expertise on this subject makes this audiobook an invaluable resource for anyone seeking a comprehensive understanding of beauty practices. Here are five interesting facts that Vasudha shares in the audiobook:
1. Healthy Fats Nourish the Liver:
She introduces the significance of coconut and ghee. These healthy fats, she reveals, support liver health by not requiring bile for digestion—a crucial insight for those seeking wholesome beauty, from the inside out.
2. Vitamin D and Skin Health: In the audiobook, she sheds light on the intimate connection between Vitamin D deficiency and skin health, associating it with conditions such as atopic dermatitis and psoriasis. She articulates how addressing this deficiency can alleviate symptoms of itchy, irritated skin.
3. Meditative Practices for Cellular Rejuvenation: This audiobook is also much like a handbook to unlock the fountain of youth. Vasudha advocates for meditative practices to prevent the shortening of telomeres—a marker of cellular ageing. By incorporating meditation, listeners can proactively engage in practices that contribute to a more youthful, vibrant appearance.
4. Acids vs. Retinoids: Dispelling beauty myths, particularly for those in their 20s, she asserts that acids are superior to retinoids. Unlike retinoids, acids don’t cause a purge, preventing the breakouts often associated with the latter.
5. Perspective on Retinol: “The Swiss chemist who first isolated retinol in 1931 received a Nobel Prize for his efforts” she recounts. However, this ingredient was later misused for experiments on convicts in prison. It’s quite a cautionary tale that adds depth to one’s choices, urging listeners to tread carefully in the pursuit of beauty and wellness.
Commenting on the launch of the audiobook, Vasudha Rai said, “I have personally experienced that beauty is both an inside-out and outside-in journey. With this audiobook, exclusively available on Audible, I wanted to cover every aspect of this experience.”
