Ken Hom's Chinese Cookery by Ken Hom

As pragmatic as it is compassionate, this intimate, humorous, and ultimately relaxing invitation to re-wild yourself, stripping away all that is not your true nature, will leave you inspired and curious to discover the wild woman within (Lissa Rankin, MD, New York Times bestselling author of Mind Over Medicine).

For the high-achieving modern woman today, having a successful career, a fulfilling romantic relationship, and a satisfying personal life can feel like opposing goals. It has even become difficult to take the time to enjoy the simple pleasures in lives. We are stuck in go-mode, damaging our romantic relationships, pleasure, and creativity. But what if there were a way to experience the simplest pleasures of our lives on a deeper level, freeing the body and psyche from these destructive patterns?

Beyond our current stereotypes about femininity lies the ancient wisdom of the Wild Woman archetype, a model of building a feminine body intelligence. By embodying this archetype and using tantra--not just in the bedroom, but also to build intimate connections to our senses and physical movements--we can break harmful psychological patterns.

In The Wild Woman's Way, Michaela Boehm shares practical rituals and exercises drawn from years of experience as a celebrity relationship and life counselor and an expert in tantric yoga. She reveals the power of different types of touch, while also training you in forms of meditation and stretching that increase activity and sensual pleasure.

Ken Hom, born in the United States to immigrant Chinese parents, is considered one of the world's leading authorities on Chinese cooking. He has traveled extensively around the globe collecting recipes and techniques for his unique style of fusion cooking. As a culinary professor, Ken realized that it was only when he demonstrated techniques to his students that they really understood them and could go on to do them with confidence. Ken developed a step-by-step approach which became a basis of his teaching and which he also used as a broadcaster. This approach forms the backbone of the recipes in Foolproof Chinese Cookery. Ken is the author of many best-selling books, including Travels with a Hot Wok published by Dorling Kindersley, and Illustrated Chinese Cookery, Hot Wok, and the award-winning Easy Family Dishes: A Memoir with Recipes. His cookbooks have sold more than 2 million copies throughout the world. Ken has also hosted a number of highly rated cooking shows in the UK, and is currently featured on the third season of BBC's Great Food series. He is the Consultant Chef for the Oriental Restaurant Group which includes the Yellow River Cafe and restaurants. Ken Hom currently makes his home in the south of France.
