The Two Wolves

One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. He said, "My son, the battle is between two wolves inside us all. "One is Evil - It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego. "The other is Good - It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith." The grandson thought about it for… Continue

Hydrotherapy - the water cure

www.thehealtheducator.com just sent me an e-book of about 35 pages on hydrotherapy. I can't cover it or talk about hydrotherapy in anyway that is going to do it justice. but i've been doing hydrotherapy lately and i'm pretty excited about it. so i'll say a little bit about it. ...i will give it a go. Hydrotherapy - The Water Cure - but water does not cure. Vincent Priesnitzz was pretty much the modern day founder. He was the inspiration for all t… Continue

See what the Elders say about Fever

In 1829, Vincent Priessnitz, the discoverer of Nature Cure, said: "Every acute disease is an attempt of the system to dispel diseased matter. Fever is not the disease itself, but the consequence of it. It is an effort greater than the normal power of the system."1 With that statement Priessnitz turned the healing art upside down. From then on, thinking people could see that what was once assumed to be the disease was not a disease at all but a curative effort which, if allowed to proceed, could… Continue

O ye ME-tab-O-lize -- - - Candida? Can ya do it?

I googled this word. "The problem occurs when something upsets the balance of bacteria in the body and this allows the yeast organism to proliferate and take over all the healthy microorganisms. " I am not going to look at the symptoms of candida - because i looked and it was basically any complaint anyone has ever had. There is a perfectly good theory which explains "the something, which upsets the balance of bacteria" It is Toxemia. A retention of toxins - when the sympathetic nerv… Continue

Milky Joe - The Coconut Story.

Is there one food that is ‘the best’ for the human species? Even if there were a perfect food for the human species - we must be realists and recognise that even if we prescribed the perfect food, many people would not be able to take advantage of it and might feel cheated or denied access. The test of a perfect food • An analysis will show that it has all the minerals required in ample proportions. • It must always be available at all seasons in a subtropical climate. • It must be suitable fo… Continue

How to Take a Sun Bath

How to Take a Sun / Light Bath “Baths of water are good, baths of air are better, and baths of light are best” – a saying from French students of Natural Health Time - be progressive - begin with little and gentle times in the sun - just like any old exercise - know your limits Early in the morning - approximately mid-morning we find more energizing - while mid-afternoon can be extremely relaxing. The perspiration is cooling. ‘If there is one spot of sun spilling onto the floor, aContinue

l.i.v.i.n foods - the vital force from solar, cosmic and terrestrial radiations

Living foods have the highest available 'vital force' The term vital force is something very innate, which could be hard to measure. But you can sense it by smell, taste and appearance. As well as nutrition levels. So we look at how long the foods have been soaking in vital forces of the universe. Fruit trees have solar, cosmic and terrestial radiations in an abundance. They have been hopefully growing in the best soil and conditions for months and years. The fruit itself sits on a tree for ma… Continue

Wooly headed thinking

According to researchers at the Institute of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology I of the Heinrich-Heine University, Düsseldorf, Germany - "Individuals with a high daily intake of vegetables and fruits also demonstrate higher cognitive performance. Please notice that vegetables are mentioned first because they are FAR more important than fruits." Here’s another example of ‘wooly-headed thinking’ 1. How high is high? - One of the problems with medical information is that it is not specific - tha… Continue

CLEARING UP A MISCONCEPTION (colon irrigation and enemas?)

CLEARING UP A MISCONCEPTION by Kenneth S. Jaffrey, ND. DC. There is a widespread misconception that has led some people to adopt incorrect notions of the cause of disease and consequently, an incorrect approach to healing. This is due to, a misunderstanding of the roles played by various parts of the human body. It is erroneously believed that the human body resembles a sewerage system. It is believed that the “pipes” which comprise this imaginary sewerage system become clogged with waste that… Continue

A.I.D.S. re-visited

LEUCOCYTOSIS --- A fallacy (or A.I.D.S. re-visited) by Kenneth S. Jaffrey, ND. DC. The blood contains two basic kinds of cells - erythrocytes that are red, and leucocytes that are white. According to some physiology textbooks the average human being has a blood count of 4,500,000 to 5,000,000 erythrocytes and 5,000 to 10,000 leucocytes per cubic centimetre. But other authorities differ. One eminent authority says that there are 1000 red cells to one white cell. Still another authority, equal… Continue

BIOLOGICAL TERRAIN VS THE GERM THEORY(very good education)

I totally stole this. But it's very good education. and at least i'm not as bad as louis pasteur The germ – or microbian - theory of disease was popularized by Louis Pasteur (1822-1895), the inventor of pasteurization. This theory says that there are fixed, external germs (or microbes) which invade the body and cause a variety of separate, definable diseases. In order to get well, you need to identify and then kill whatever germ made you sick. The tools generally employed are drugs, surg… Continue

Active Love

I used a very scientific method to put forth this newsletter - I flipped open a book without looking and the page that opened became the focus of my intention. The words that attracted me were: - 'Active love' - not just the emotional love that a parent might have for their child, nor the passive love that we might have for a possession - but rather the passionate love that drives us to action. - Philosophy is one thing but action is everything. It is agreeable and even admirable to ask quest… Continue

PHILOSOPHY OF THE HUMAN BODY

All cells have 3 magical functions. 1. Response 2. Reproduction 3. Repair The third function goes something like this... Injuries like cuts, broken bones, bruises, contuse or confusion to any part of an organism - will do all it can to fix these problems and return to a state of harmony. It's the Organo-vegetative power and it's an automatic process. The only way to not return to harmony - is to continue to live out of harmony. Without the Cerebro-Spinal, power of thought - we wouldn't have… Continue

Is there a PERFECT FOOD?

Is there a perfect food for the human species - one food above all others that would provide all the necessary ingredients to keep a human body in a state of health and happiness? It is generally believed that as long as we eat a variety of foods in the correct proportions, we can be sure of getting all the minerals so necessary to health. And even if we were to produce 'the perfect food', we must be realists and recognise that many people would not be able to take advantage of it, and would t… Continue

'Detox' and its implications

about the word ‘detox’ and its implications. it’s only in the past year or so that I’ve begun to use the word ‘detox’ – the reason for incorporating this word? – I’m trying to keep up with the times. So let’s look at the word ‘detox’ – which has become somewhat of a new-age ‘coat hanger’ - on which many people, and practitioners, hang their hopes of better health. The great dictionary in the sky – Wikipedia – states that ‘Body cleansing or detoxification is a treatment in alternative medicine… Continue

Protein in the diet

In regards to Nutrition and Diet - There appears to be much confusion regarding the term 'Protein - specifically the types of and amounts of protein needed by the human organism. A diet fit for health - for the human species at least - should consist of approximately 50% fruit, 35% vegetable, 10-15% Starch (complex carbohydrates) and no more than 5-10% protein (and this should be vegetable protein only) Unfortunately, our social history shows dinner plates constantly overflowing with starch an… Continue

Real People Eat Real Food

Chemicals and Additives 'We are living in a world today where lemonade is made from artificial flavours and furniture polish is made from real lemons.' Alfred E. Newman There is never one thing alone that causes ill health or disease - it will always be a combination of many things - BUT - if there were one aspect of our diet that is more irritating than any other - I believe it would be the addition of all the chemicals - the inorganic, lifeless, poisonous chemicals that are listed on the con… Continue

Sickness, Disease, Illness - don't feel negative about them.

When you are sick - It's actually YOU getting better. It is not germs attacking, or you getting worse. However if you suppress this sickness - keep working, take drugs, eat food, take anything really other than air and water and rest, then you risk blocking the channels of elimination - the toxins, catarrh, white blood cells, whatever you want to call them - if BLOCKED. will lay down in your tissues, irritate, inflame, harden etc - waiting for the moment your vital energy rises and you heat up a… Continue
