Breathing Exercises

Although this article is not directly aimed at the holistic arena the tips about breathing should be taken to heart. Even the concept of stretching the muscles before a run can be incorporated into everyday activities. Establishing an exercise routine that includes a few basic stretches and proper breathing techniques at the beginning of each day will benefit your overall health. So… enjoy the article.

When Was The Last Time You Warmed Up Your Lungs Before You Went On A Run?

Have you ever noticed people getting ready for any sporting event, to get the best performance from their bodies they always warm it up first to get the blood flowing.

But what about the lungs? Its all good and well getting your body ready for a good workout but if the supply of oxygen to the muscles is poor because of bad breathing habits its easy to see you’re not going to get the best from them.

Here are some tips to start you on the right path.

• Make sure you get in the habit of setting aside some extra time to do a little breathing exercise to prepare your lungs for the job ahead. It won’t take as long as your stretching exercises but its just as important if not more. For the first 5-10 minutes do a little amount of walking as you’re doing this focus on your breathing.

Start to relax your belly on the inhale this allows your diaphragm to go down into its fullest position and thus fill your lungs to fill to a greater capacity. Then on the exhale retract your belly back in towards your spine thus helping the diaphragm to fully contract and empty the lungs better. (you want to get as much of that stale air out as possible before you breathe in again!) It may take a little while to get use to doing this but stick with it and remember how much you’re muscles are going to thank you for this added oxygen flow.

• When you’re out on your run try to breathe for as long as possible through your nose, this filters unwanted debris out of your air ways and helps to warm the air in the nasal cavity before it enters your lungs (especially important on those cold mornings.)

These new breathing techniques may be hard at first to get used to but your body will adapt over time. You may even notice a difference in your running times,.. you might not be setting world record times but hey who knows what might happen??

What about Cucumbers

Cucumber – commonly know as a vegetable but is actually classified scientifically as a fruit belongs to the gourd family Cucurbitaceae with the likes of melons and squash.

Eaten as a vegetable, cucumbers are juicy and crunchy. They taste good and can be eaten in a variety of ways including raw, pickled, stir fried or boiled in soup. The skin, which is high in fiber content and also rich in minerals, should be eaten whenever possible. Adding a crunchy cucumber to your daily meal or salad is an easy way to increase your consumption of water and fiber – two very important elements toward achieving great health. Along with that, cucumbers also contain lots of vitamins (C, A, K and B6) as well as nutrients like molybdenum, potassium, manganese, folate, trypotohan, magnesium, copper, pantothenic acid phosphrus etc.

The health benefits gained by consuming cucumbers are numerous due to the fibers and the minerals it contains. For example, a person who is suffering from hypertension can better control their blood pressure by eating more cucumbers. The high fiber, potassium and magnesium can help lower a person high blood pressure.

Anyone who wants to lose weight can also add more cucumber to his or her diet. Cucumber’s high fiber helps cut down the food intake by giving the person a ‘full’ feeling. Cucumber also has high detoxification effects which aids in weight control; cucumber can also help control the glucose in the body with which when left unused will be transformed into fat.

The Chinese believe in nature everything must be well balance commonly know as ‘yin’ and ‘yang’. When it comes to food, certain food raises the temperature of the body (eg. Raise the metabolism of the body) and are classified as Yang or Heaty food; while other food that decrease the body heat are classified as Yin or non-heaty food – Cucumbers are classified in this category.

Most of the food we take today in our everyday lives are ‘heaty’ food; eg. Fried Food, Chilies, Peppers, Meat and certain fruits like Cherries and Mangos. Cucumber is also able to reduce or balance the ‘heatiness’ caused by these type of food. Some symptoms of the body being too ‘heaty’ are sore throats, nosebleed, chapped lips, dark colored phlegm, acne outbreak and constipation. With the reduction of ‘heatiness’, the cucumber also helps cleanse the urinal tract and thus have been know to have a urine cleansing effect.

Cucumber when juiced is a rich source for silicon. Silicon in it natural form can help improves the complexion and the state of health of a person’s skin. Cucumber also has a hydrating effect on skin and this make the skin glow.
.
With its high concentration of Vitamin C (5 times higher than that of a Watermelon), cucumber is great for skin whitening. Cucumber also can help to tighten pores and reduce eye puffiness as well.

PLA Institute of Drug Dependence Treatment and Rehabilitation is doing research to observe the effects of using colonic dialysis therapy in persons addicted to heroin and to find out whether this treatment can help them abstain from the craving for heroin.

Doctors at the Royal Free Hospital in London did an evaluation of an ancient Chinese remedy for dermatitis. A mixture of 10 herbs was prescribed to a group of forty adult patients with longstanding and widespread atopic dermatitis in a trial, which lasted 5 months. Over an eight-week period each patient was randomly allocated to receive either the herbal remedy or a similar tasting placebo. This was followed by a four-week washout period. 31 patients completed the study and showed a continued and rapid improvement in the extent of redness of skin (erythema) and surface damage during the time they were taking the prescribed Chinese herbal medicine. The research concluded that the remedy is effective in treating adult a topic dermatitis.

Natural Anti-depressants

Depression is a much bigger and widespread problem than many would believe. It is estimated that more than 1 in 20 Americans will develop depression in the next 12 months but most sufferers attempt to hide the problem from friends, family and physicians. This makes it incredibly difficult to diagnose unless you are specifically looking for the symptoms. Most sufferers find it difficult to diagnose depression and often attribute it to “feeling a bit down”. There is a big difference between feeling down and having depression. If you or someone close to you is suffering from depression it is important to see a doctor as soon as possible.

The Safe Use Of Natural Remedies

As well as psychological and medical treatment there are also a number of natural remedies that can help to eliminate or, at least, reduce stress and depression. Introducing these supplements, vitamins or nutrients into your diet it can be possible to avoid prolonged depression. Always check for interactions with any prescription drug you may be taking and, if necessary, consult your physician to ask their opinion of a particular natural remedy and whether you are safe to take it.

St Johns Wort

St Johns Wort is one of the most popular and effective of herbs to help combat depression. It has become increasingly popular over the last few years, as more and more people have been made aware of its effectiveness. St Johns Wort inhibits monoamine oxidase, a chemical within the human body that is known to encourage depression. However, St Johns Wort does much more than this. It can help to restore self-esteem, confidence and regular sleeping patterns making it not only useful for beating depression but restoring physical health as well. It also increases appetite and restores interest in life.

St Johns Wort is available in capsule, tea, tincture and oil form. There are some recorded precautions that need to be taken when considering taking St Johns Wort. Cases of photosensitivity in those with fair skin have been reported so care should be taken in the sun. You should also avoid combining St Johns Wort with cold and flu remedies as well as other prescription based anti depressants. Avoid using St Johns Wort if pregnant or breast-feeding.

Kava Kava

Kava Kava is another excellent product that can help to beat stress and anxiety. It is particularly effective in the battle against physical stress. Kava Kava promotes feelings of calm relaxation without the drowsiness that can be associated with prescription drugs and even other herbal remedies. Depending on the patient, feelings of euphoria and elation may also be experienced but this is experienced in the minority of cases.

Lemon Balm

Due to its calming aroma and effects, lemon balm is also popular as a herbal anti depressant. Lemon balm has been used for centuries as an antibacterial ointment and also as an infusion or a tea to help calm nerves and settle patients. Lemon balm can easily be grown in gardens throughout the world and by tearing the leaves, adding honey and hot water the perfect, natural relaxant can be made.

A Final Word On Natural Remedies

Nature produces many different herbs and more than a fare share of these can help with depression, stress and anxiety. While some care should always be taken regarding drug interactions and the misuse they are generally considered safe for regular consumption and use. If you are in any doubt then consult your physician; something you should definitely do if you are taking any form pf prescription drug.

Energy Healing

Energy healing, a wonderful advancement on alternative therapy, is used to reduce stress and boost confidence and spiritual happiness. It is all associated with the magnetic channels of energies that surround our bodies. Energy healing regulates them and the results are marvelous. These therapies focus on removing clots formed by blocked energy channels… from our body auras and charkas. It is non invasive and hence a preferred method of healing for many patients.

It is a spiritual approach to the inner self of a human. It then boosts harmony, clarity and alignment. Practitioners of natural therapy study and practice for years before they are able to provide effective treatment to patients. They treat people through prayers and focus of mind. They then unfold the altered state of consciousness to clear the imbalances in the energy fields of our body. Techniques such as releasing, reframing, healing the memories, and self-forgiveness balance the aura by expanding it into wholeness.

Once all these imbalances and disturbances are cleared, the energy channels resume their task of integrating the body mind and soul to restore the mental health and wellness. Energy healing can also be performed from a distance also. Experts work from other continents, over telephones, to cure their patients suffering from mental imbalances.

Experts use the same technique of focusing to treat patients even from overseas. The level of their expertise is not measured from the distance they’ve covered in treating their patient’s energy field. It is thus possible to provide a highly effective distance energy healing treatment to a patient in a remote location, even thousands of miles away. One natural distance healing therapy over the telephone usually lasts from 30 to 90 minutes. One should take special care that this time is very precious and there should be no interruption or distortion during this session.

A few precautionary measures that should be taken care of during this session involve the following steps:

* Set a comfortable place to sit or lie down during the therapy session that is free of interruption.

* It is a good practice to keep the room slightly dim and light a candle just before the session starts.

* Metal affects the energy channels around your body so it is better not to keep any metal surface near your body during the session.

* The temperature of the room should be moderate. If it is cold then keep a blanket or sheet around.

* During the therapy it is best to just relax your mind or body as the task is carried out by the expert..

These tips should be followed in all kinds of energy healing sessions whether they are nearly performed or distant.

37 Food Items You Can’t Get In The Coming Food Crisis – and Probably Won’t Survive Without! http://holistic-cures.net/soldout

Homeopathic Remedies for Food Poisoning

Summer is your perfect opportunity to go to the beach or have an outdoor picnic. Unfortunately your fun could be ruined by food poisoning and diarrhea, which frequently accompany these warm weather activities. Food poisoning occurs when undercooked meats and dairy products (like mayonnaise mixed in coleslaw or potato salad) are not refrigerated and sit out too long. It also results from techniques of food preparation that are not hygenic, such as unwashed hands, unclean surfaces, and transferring cooked foods to serving platters that have already been exposed to raw meat or spoiled foods.

While most cases of food poisoning and diarrhea spontaneously resolve in a few days, shortening the recovery period to a few hours is preferable, especially since one of the most common and fairly serious complications of diarrhea is dehydration. Drinking fluids (except for coffee and milk) seems to be a simple solution. But what do you do if diarrhea is paired with such severe nausea and vomiting that you cannot drink? Then a trip to the emergency room is your only option. Stomach ailments are no picnic.

Here is where homeopathy comes to the rescue. Diarrhea is a condition for which the benefits of homeopathy have been repeatedly demonstrated in well-designed clinical studies. Homeopathy was discovered and then developed into a system of medicine by German physician Samuel Hahnemann over 200 years ago. Homeopathic remedies are prepared from natural substances. When used appropriately, they cause no side effects. In many cases of food poisoning and acute diarrhea, the results after just a single dose of a homeopathic remedy can be seen in as little as 15 to 30 minutes.

How do you take homeopathic remedies? These specially prepared remedies are sold in health food stores and come in the form of small, sweet pills. Buy remedies in concentration 30C. Place 5 pills under the tongue and let them dissolve. Repeat the dose in 15 minutes. Do not take more than 3 doses. Stop if there is a clear effect even after the first dose. Stop if there is no effect after you used all 3 doses. A word of warning: if the symptoms of food poisoning and diarrhea persist for more than 60 minutes without any signs of improvement, please seek professional help. Go see a doctor or visit the emergency room. It is wise to be cautious. Serious illnesses, such as cholera or botulism, may initially resemble simple food poisoning.

You can read more about homeopathy and helpful remedies in my book Easy Homeopathy (McGraw Hill, 2006). Here we’ll just discuss the three remedies that most frequently cure food poisoning and diarrhea: Arsenicum album, Podophyllum, and Veratrum album. Other remedies should be used only when you can see their most prominent symptoms or cannot find clear symptoms that match the following summaries.

Arsenicum Album (made from oxide of arsenic):
This remedy is especially useful for the treatment of food poisoning. If you have any doubt about which remedy to use, try Arsenicum. In most cases, it gives some relief. Take Arsenicum if you see these signs.

• Stool is liquid, frequently looks like rice water and it burns.
• You are thirsty for small sips of cold water.
• Anxious, chilly, restless.
• Diarrhea may be accompanied with nausea and/or vomiting. If vomiting is severe and frequent, think about Veratrum album (see below).
• You feel better: from warm applications to the abdomen.

Podophyllum (made from may apple):
People who need Podophyllum do not show a lot of anxiety (opposite of Arsenicum)—they are simply tired and exhausted from having diarrhea. Unlike in cases that require Veratrum Album, there is no vomiting in cases that require Podophyllum. Take Podophyllum if you notice the following indications.

• Abundant, watery, noisy, explosive diarrhea.
• Much gas.
• Stool soils the entire toilet bowl and the buttocks.
• You feel worse: from heat, hot weather (compare to Arsenicum), and any motion.
• You feel like fainting, very weak.• Gurgling before stool.• Empty sensation after stool.
• Stool often has terrible offensive odor.
• May have a headache from diarrhea.

Veratrum album (made from white hellebore):
The key factor in the determination that this is the right remedy for you is that you are experiencing severe exhaustion, as well as diarrhea in combination with vomiting. Use Veratrum to relieve food poisoning and sickness that involves the following combination of symptoms.

• Diarrhea accompanied by cold sweats, especially on the forehead.
• Diarrhea that occurs simultaneously with profuse, forceful vomiting (compare to Arsenicum)
• Exhaustion, weakness, may even faint after stool or after vomiting.
• A peculiar sensation of feeling coldness in the abdomen (occasionally reported)
• You feel worse: from heat (compare to Arsenicum)

Stop Food Cravings

The Benefits of Cider Vinegar

Cider Vinegar is a very good natural source of potassium and potassium is an essential ingredient for normal growth and the replacing of worn out body tissues. It can also help prevent the hardening of blood vessels.

Causes of Potassium deficiency in the body can be caused by certain medical conditions, including something as simple as a bad case of sickness and diarrhea. Even some medications, can purge the body of this much needed mineral.

It is interesting to note that problems with splitting fingernails can be an indication of a potassium deficiency in the body. Tooth decay can also be caused by the same deficiency. Of course, if you do have bad teeth, and happen to be eating several dozen chocolate bars a day, and then it is probably safe to say that Potassium deficiency isn’t the problem.
If your sweet tooth hasn’t got out of control, and you do have a problem with decay, then perhaps cider vinegar, with its high Potassium content, might be your answer. Yes, that apple a day will keep the doctor away and a glass of cider vinegar might keep the dentist away.

Potassium deficiency, or Hypokalemia if you want to use the correct terminology, can have a lot of negative effects on the body; some of them are a lot more worrying than tooth decay. In severe cases the deficiency can cause heart problems to develop or a condition called Hypokalemic Paralysis that renders the entire body stiff.

Fortunately, Potassium is present in a lot of foods apart from apples, so in the normal course of events most people should have no trouble in getting enough of this important mineral. Good sources of Potassium include fish, chicken, beef, bananas, apricots, melons, and lima beans. There are many others too, including chocolate, strange to say, so you can have your tooth ache if you want it, without having to worry about your Potassium levels falling.

It is also believed by some that taking 1 oz of Cider Vinegar daily will help the body maintain a proper PH level. Some doctors have stated that High Acidity in the body is one of the conditions that allow diseases to flourish. Depending on what your personal diet is taking an ounce of vinegar each day may be beneficial. It can be mixed with a glass of juice (and a teaspoon of honey) to make it more palatable.

Living Healthy – What about Water?

Each of us should strive to better our whole being, meaning mind, body, and spiritual aspects. The body part of that is usually looked at from the point of the “body as a whole” from both the Medical and Health Industries perspectives. That is not necessarily wrong in that what goes on in one part of the body can affect other parts of the body as well.

So, while it is important to address the body as a whole it is also important to view it as individual cells, by which it is composed. By taking into consideration the vast number of cells and their needs, you can provide the appropriate attention to the conditions that face them, improve your health and wellness and eventually help yourself to live a longer, healthier life.

When we look at the body, its cells, and what it (the body) is made of we discover that most of our construction is made of water. That’s right, the human body consists of approximately 70% (average) water. And to make it even more interesting, each individual cell has water in it.

Major dehydration leads to death. Minor but consistent (chronic) dehydration leads to sickness, disease, lack of energy, and poor brain function. You may be dehydrated and not even realize it, most people don’t… until they end up in the hospital.

One of the statements almost all Doctors agree with is that the average person needs to drink at least 8 glasses (8 ounces each) of water daily BUT… there is a problem with that “general” statement.

Drinking water out of your kitchen tap results in your putting foreign chemicals in your body, chemicals that have proven to cause Cancer. To be more specific, Fluoride or Chlorine, Both are chemicals which are commonly “Mandated” (required to be added) by many Government Agencies overseeing Municipal Water Systems. Not only that, other impurities are picked up while traveling through the miles of pipes on the way to your home.

Obviously we can’t tell the Water Company to exclude Fluoride (or Chlorine) from our individual supply but we can filter it, and the other impurities, out at our point of consumption.

Even if you have a well you draw water from, the odds are that there are contaminants in the ground that are passed on to that water also. It seems our Industry and Agriculture practices have made access to truly clean and healthy water nearly impossible.

There are plenty of filtering systems available for home applications that any of us can make use of. I use a Brita (brand name) Pitcher filter for drinking water for both people and pets in our home. It is simple to use and the water tastes much better. There are other brands of similar design that do essentially the same job. Under sink and whole house filtering systems are also available.

You do want to get a “filtering” system only and NOT a water softening system. It is my opinion that water softeners add foreign chemicals to the water that the human body cannot process properly and also passes those same chemicals on to the environment. What that means is that you are not only polluting your own body but also the world we live in.

New research has uncovered some amazing things one can do to improve ones quality of life without the use of expensive water softening systems or putting foreign chemicals into your body and the ground.

Most people that have installed water softening systems in their homes have done so because they have a “hard water” problem. Fortunately recent research in the study of “water” has resulted in new products that can alleviate that problem while still being ecologically friendly. Not only that but these systems require little to no maintenance and do not require you to replenish (buy more chemicals) them… ever. That is a huge
savings in itself. What I am referring to is “Structured” water systems. That’s “systems”, not additives (very expensive) that require you to put a few drops in your drinking water. These systems are easy to install (in-line with your water supply), require no electrical connections, and are available in several configurations. You can get under-the-sink, shower, or whole house setups.
