  Thai massage, also known as Nuad Thai or Nuat Thai, has a rich history rooted in ancient traditions. It is believed to have been developed over 2,500 years ago in India by Jivaka Kumar Bhaccha, a contemporary of the Buddha and a revered physician in Buddhist tradition. He is often referred to as the "father of medicine" in Thailand. As Buddhism spread to Thailand, so did the practices and principles of Thai massage. 
  The technique evolved over centuries, integrating influences from traditional Chinese medicine, Ayurvedic practices, and indigenous Thai healing methods. Thai massage is distinct from other forms of massage due to its unique combination of acupressure, Indian Ayurvedic principles, and assisted yoga postures. It is performed on a mat on the floor, and the recipient remains fully clothed during the session. The therapist uses their hands, knees, legs, and feet to move the client into a series of yoga-like stretches, while also applying deep muscle compression, joint mobilization, and acupressure. 
  The Wat Pho temple in Bangkok, a significant center for traditional Thai massage education, houses inscriptions and statues that document these ancient practices. The temple is considered the birthplace of Thai massage as it is known today. In modern times, Thai massage has become popular worldwide, recognized for its holistic approach to healing, which promotes relaxation, reduces stress, and enhances physical and emotional well-being.

  This memoir of buying and transforming an abandoned olive farm “describes life in the South of France with lush, voluptuous appreciation” (Publishers Weekly). Presented with an opportunity to purchase a ten-acre property near Cannes, actress Carol Drinkwater and her film-producer fiancé, Michel, decide to take the plunge. It will take all their savings just for the down payment, but the beauty of the surrounding countryside and the promise of a new adventure seem worth the risk. As they work to clear the weeds and rehabilitate the abandoned farm, they meet Provence’s quirky locals, puzzle through France’s legal bureaucracy, explore the nearby Mediterranean islands, and encounter the region’s wildlife. This colorful memoir from the Sunday Times–bestselling author recounts one couple’s remarkable journey from being inspired but inexperienced new landowners to realizing their dream of a fulfilling, peaceful life on their own little plot of paradise. “Good-humored and well-written.” —The Washington Post “A fantasy come true, as it will be for many of the readers who yearn to experience the magic of southern France.” —The Austin Chronicle
