Annekatrin Puhle, Dr.phil. / PhD

The foundations of my education and work are ethics, individuality (both topics of my doctoral thesis) and health (prevention and preservation). To read abotu this, please see the pages “Health”, “Immunity”, “Recipes”, “Book: Plants for Health” and “Book Chapter: Nutrition”. Sleep and dream are also essential for health and immunity – please see the page “Book: Dreaming”. And for a natural, holistic and fully human potential way of life, please see the page “Book: Magic”. All this has a lot to do with ethics, especially when it concerns the individual – this is what my philosophical doctoral thesis is about, for which you can find information on the page “Book: Persona”. My latest book concerns the deepest question of life: Is death the end? See page “Book: Deceased Persons”.
