			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A female client of mine told me that her husband has passed away recently. He was not old of age. This couple had no children and after her husband&#8217;s death my client had no relatives left in this world.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.49cm; margin-bottom: 0.49cm;" align="left">Her husband was a teacher. One day at a party he suddenly lost the ability to speak, and he couldn&#8217;t recognize his whereabouts. It never happened before. Doctors diagnosed him with a brain tumor after that incident. And the tumor was removed surgically.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.49cm; margin-bottom: 0.49cm;" align="left">That&#8217;s when the battle again the decease started. In the beginning all was quite good. He was even able to go back to work, but within a few month his condition got worse. My client had to leave her job to look after her husband. They tried everything they could to help him get him better,  but it was all in vain. In a few months he died while he was at a hospital.</p>
<p>I met this women before, and when I saw her this time I couldn&#8217;t recognize her. She became thin and looked quite unwell.</p>
<p>After he husband&#8217;s death my client got into a deep <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/depression/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Depression">depression</a>. She felt she no reasons left to live. Eventually this feeling became dull, but she still had <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/insomnia/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Insomnia">insomnia</a>, apathy, absence of <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/appetite/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with appetite">appetite</a>. That&#8217;s when she approached me looking for help.</p>
<p><span id="more-201"></span></p>
<h3>Diagnosis</h3>
<p>According to <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/su-jok/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Su Jok">Su Jok</a> theory, emotions of a sadness, which arise in a case of loss of a loved one, can be dominant and lead to <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/depression/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Depression">depression</a>, as all other emotions are suppressed.</p>
<p>On the energy level excess of the dryness energy (Lung meridian) was observed in my client.</p>
<h3>Treatment</h3>
<p>For the treatment of this case I used <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/su-jok/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Su Jok">Su Jok</a> technique for reducing of the dryness energy (emotion of sadness) and tonification of the heat energy (emotion of joy ). <br />
 In parallel when my patient lay on the bed  the Lung meridian was balanced by means of Jin Shin technique. <br />
 From my experience such combination brings very good results.</p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/treatment-of-a-deep-depression.png"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-202" title="treatment-of-a-deep-depression" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/treatment-of-a-deep-depression-300x225.png" alt="treatment-of-a-deep-depression" width="300" height="225" /></a>On the figure you can see the <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/acupuncture/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Acupuncture">acupuncture</a> points I used according to <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/su-jok/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Su Jok">Su Jok</a> theory.</p>
<p>After three session of the treatment my client regained her normal <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/sleep/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with sleep">sleep</a>.</p>
<p>At that same time she started to <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/cough/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with cough">cough</a>. Yet she had no cold. That confirms that my work on the Lung meridian was successful, as it shows a release of stagnation in the chest area.</p>
<p>The client still feels rather sad, but now she started to have optimism in her future.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A 55 year old woman, came to me complaining about a sudden deterioration of her fingernails. Her fingernails were indeed fragile, soft and easily bent.  She couldn&#8217;t associate this sudden deterioration of her fingernails with any recent event or a specific medicine. She also complained about issues with her digestion,  constipations, bad <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/sleep/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with sleep">sleep</a>, occasional hot flashes and a sense of cold in her back.</p>
<h3>Diagnosis</h3>
<p>First I performed a computer test using the <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/testbalance/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with TestBalance">TestBalance</a> device, according to <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/su-jok/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Su Jok">Su Jok</a> theory. You can see the results of the test on figure 1.<span id="more-196"></span><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/nail-1.png"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-197" title="nail-1" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/nail-1-300x249.png" alt="nail-1" width="300" height="249" /></a></p>
<p>The test showed that meridians of Bladder ( Bl ) and Kidney ( Ki ) were in great excess.</p>
<p>These two meridians concern Coldness energy, therefore it was possible to infer that Coldness energy dominates in her organism at present. It can affect any organs, in particular the <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/liver/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with liver">Liver</a> and the <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/gall-bladder/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with gall bladder">Gall Bladder</a>.</p>
<p>In traditional Chinese medicine, nail quality is often used to check the condition of the <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/liver/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with liver">liver</a>, as the two are interconnected. The Coldness energy dominating in the <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/liver/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with liver">Liver</a> can slow down growth of <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/nails/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Nails">nails</a>, making them fragile.</p>
<p>The diagram created by the <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/testbalance/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with TestBalance">TestBalance</a> device supports that suggestion, since on that diagram we can see <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/liver/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with liver">Liver</a> deficiency and <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/gall-bladder/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with gall bladder">Gall Bladder</a> meridian excess, which again testifies that there is a problem with patient&#8217;s <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/liver/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with liver">liver</a>.</p>
<h3>Treatment</h3>
<p>The treatment was designed to reduce the Coldness energy in the <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/liver/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with liver">liver</a> and the whole system (see figures 2 and 3):<br />
 <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/nail-2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-198" title="nail-2" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/nail-2-300x224.jpg" alt="nail-2" width="300" height="224" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/nail-3.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-199" title="nail-3" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/nail-3-300x211.jpg" alt="nail-3" width="300" height="211" /></a><br />
 I did two session of the treatment. After the first session the condition of the fingernails was considerably improved and after the second session it was almost normal.</p>
<p>After the second treatment, I performed another computer test using the <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/testbalance/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with TestBalance">TestBalance</a> device  and as you can see from figure 4, this time all energy systems are in a much better balance.</p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/nail-4.png"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-200" title="nail-4" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/nail-4-300x245.png" alt="nail-4" width="300" height="245" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/insomnia/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Insomnia">Insomnia</a></strong> is characterized by persistent difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep despite having all the conditions conducive to normal <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/sleep/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with sleep">sleep</a>. It&#8217;s a symptom of a sleeping disorder. Due to lack of <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/sleep/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with sleep">sleep</a>, insomniacs typically suffer from functional impairment while awake.</p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/insomnia/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Insomnia">Insomnia</a> could happen because of neuroses, some cardiovascular and mental diseases and also due to damages of brain formations regulating correct alternation of a dream and wakefulness.</p>
<p>Normally healthy people could also have an occasional <strong><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/insomnia/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Insomnia">insomnia</a></strong> which could appear after a physical or intellectual over strain, exhaustion, or due to strong emotions.</p>
<p>It is possible and necessary to cope with this disease. But ideally without the pills, as they don&#8217;t help to bring a normal <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/sleep/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with sleep">sleep</a>, which must include dreaming, and also pills can create a dependency and the body could create a tolerance to drugs, requiring an increased dosage.</p>
<p>Therefore I would like to offer simple and accessible to everyone ways to get rid of  <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/insomnia/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Insomnia">insomnia</a> without resorting to  medicine.<br />
 <span id="more-186"></span></p>
<h3>The Techniques</h3>
<p>First <a href="/healing/2008/07/how-to-use-moxa/">using Moxa</a> heat up the basic power points as shown on figures 1 to 3.</p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/insomnia-1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-187" title="insomnia-1" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/insomnia-1-300x199.jpg" alt="insomnia-1" width="300" height="199" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/insomnia-2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-188" title="insomnia-2" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/insomnia-2-300x199.jpg" alt="insomnia-2" width="300" height="199" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/insomnia-3.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-189" title="insomnia-3" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/insomnia-3-300x199.jpg" alt="insomnia-3" width="300" height="199" /></a><br />
 Next <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/massage/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with massage">massage</a> areas corresponding to neck, back of the head and epiphysis ( figure 4 )</p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/insomnia-41.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-195" title="insomnia-41" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/insomnia-41-300x224.jpg" alt="insomnia-41" width="300" height="224" /></a></p>
<p>and points corresponding to kidney. These points are on the back of a palm in small recesses ( figures 5 and 6 ). <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/massage/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with massage">Massage</a> those areas using your fingers, without applying too much pressure.</p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/insomnia-5.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-191" title="insomnia-5" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/insomnia-5-224x300.jpg" alt="insomnia-5" width="224" height="300" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/insomnia-6.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-192" title="insomnia-6" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/insomnia-6-300x239.jpg" alt="insomnia-6" width="300" height="239" /></a></p>
<p>Do these two procedures before going to <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/sleep/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with sleep">sleep</a>.</p>
<p>If after trying those techniques a few times you are still not getting the desired effect, try to add the following technique in addition to the ones mentioned earlier.</p>
<p>Place fingers according to figure 7 and hold them for 3 to 4 minutes. You should feel relaxed now and will quickly fall asleep.</p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/insomnia-7.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-193" title="insomnia-7" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/insomnia-7-300x239.jpg" alt="insomnia-7" width="300" height="239" /></a></p>
<p>If you woke up and can&#8217;t fall back asleep simply paint up finger tips by dark blue felt-tip pen. This procedure is especially good for children who can&#8217;t <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/sleep/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with sleep">sleep</a>.</p>
<p>Finally, if you are tormented by bad dreams, before you are going to <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/sleep/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with sleep">sleep</a>, <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/massage/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with massage">massage</a> the point specified on figure 8.</p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/insomnia-8.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-194" title="insomnia-8" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/insomnia-8-300x199.jpg" alt="insomnia-8" width="300" height="199" /></a></p>
<p>Use for this purpose any not too sharp object (for example a ball pen without ink, etc.). <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/massage/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with massage">Massage</a> this point on both feet for 2 to 3 minutes.</p>
<p>If you liked this self-healing technique, “<a href="../2008/06/self-healing-techniques-or-how-to-be-your-own-doctor/">Self Healing Series</a>” has more self-empowering materials.</p>

Your <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/immune-system/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Immune System">immune system</a> takes care of eliminating most of the illnesses before they manifested themselves and it&#8217;s the one that helps you recover quickly from an illness if it happened anyway.</p>
<p>You probably heard that in order to have a strong <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/immune-system/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Immune System">immune system</a> you need to avoid <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/smoking/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with smoking">smoking</a> (including passive <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/smoking/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with smoking">smoking</a>), moderate alcohol consumption, keep low <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/stress/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with stress">stress</a> levels and most importantly &#8212; follow a healthy <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/diet/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with diet">diet</a>.</p>
<p>However it&#8217;s also known that the <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/immune-system/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Immune System">immune system</a>&#8217;s strength naturally diminishes with years, which explains why older generations are so prone to illnesses.

<p>Now I&#8217;m going to explain how you could strengthen your <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/immune-system/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Immune System">immune system</a> using techniques from <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/su-jok/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Su Jok">Su Jok</a>.</p>
<p><span id="more-185"></span></p>
<h2>Self-Healing Technique</h2>
<h3>Step 1</h3>
<p>Find out points as per figure 1:</p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/immunity-1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-182" title="immunity-1" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/immunity-1-300x199.jpg" alt="immunity-1" width="300" height="199" /></a></p>
<p>Now heat up those points <a href="/healing/2008/07/how-to-use-moxa/">using Moxa</a>.</p>
<p>Do this procedure once a day on both palms.</p>
<h3>Step 2</h3>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/massage/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with massage">Massage</a> those points according to figure 2.</p>

<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/immunity-3.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-184" title="immunity-3" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/immunity-3-300x239.jpg" alt="immunity-3" width="300" height="239" /></a></p>
<p>Use a band-aid in order to attach them to fingers. Leave those grains in place for 10 to 12 hours. If water gets onto the <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/seeds/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with seeds">seeds</a>, simply replace them with fresh ones and use a new band-aid.</p>
<p>Do this procedure 2-3 times a week.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/hemorrhoids/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Hemorrhoids">hemorrhoids</a> are varicose expansion of hemorrhoid veins (an abnormally swollen vein ) in the anus or rectum.<br />
 This is one  of the most widespread diseases. Symptoms of this disease include <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/bleeding/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with bleeding">bleeding</a> rectum, loss of hemorrhoidal bolus, accompanied by itching, inflammation and sometimes thrombosis. According to statistics women, and men are equally susceptible to <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/hemorrhoids/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Hemorrhoids">hemorrhoids</a>.</p>
<p>The chronic <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/hemorrhoids/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Hemorrhoids">hemorrhoids</a> behave cyclically, i.e. the condition improves and deteriorates in cycles. However left without a serious treatment this illness gradually progresses and can suddenly take the acute form which could lead to thrombosis.</p>
<p>The acute form of disease is characterized by a strong splitting pain and a sensation of having an alien object in rectum. These sensations are very acute during <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/bowel-movement/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with bowel movement">bowel movement</a>, walking and sitting.</p>
<p><span id="more-181"></span>One of the main reasons for hemorrhoid problems is inadequate <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/diet/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with diet">diet</a>, with too few fibers, which leads to hard bowel movements and frequent constipations, which create constant straining during <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/bowel-movement/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with bowel movement">bowel movement</a>.</p>
<p>Inactive way of life, sedentary work, adiposity, pregnancy and childbirth, unnecessary body weight, too many hot baths, <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/smoking/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with smoking">smoking</a> and constant stresses also provoke development of <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/hemorrhoids/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Hemorrhoids">hemorrhoids</a>.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s really important that you see a doctor at the first appearance of <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/hemorrhoids/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Hemorrhoids">hemorrhoids</a>.</p>
<p>It is possible to  considerably accelerate the healing process using a simple technique used in <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/su-jok/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Su Jok">Su Jok</a> therapy.</p>
<h2>Treatment</h2>
<p>First find most painful points on areas corresponding to the rectum according to figure 1.</p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/hemorrhoids-pain-1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-179" title="hemorrhoids-pain-1" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/hemorrhoids-pain-1-225x300.jpg" alt="hemorrhoids-pain-1" width="225" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Now find a little stick with a not too sharp edge (a toothpick with a broken sharp edge, a ball pen without ink and will do). You&#8217;re going to use this stick to <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/massage/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with massage">massage</a> those painful points. Press these points with a moderate effort and begin a slow rotation of the stick in two directions. Carry out this <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/massage/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with massage">massage</a> for several minutes. See figure 2.</p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/hemorrhoids-pain-2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-180" title="hemorrhoids-pain-2" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/hemorrhoids-pain-2-300x199.jpg" alt="hemorrhoids-pain-2" width="300" height="199" /></a></p>
<p>Next paint over these areas with dark blue color. For this purpose it is possible to use an ordinary felt-tip pen.<br />
 Finally apply buckwheat <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/seeds/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with seeds">seeds</a> to these areas. This is the same technique as explained in &#8220;<a href="/healing/2008/07/how-to-get-rid-of-neck-pain-self-healing-techniques-series/">How To Get Rid Of Neck Pain</a>&#8221; step 3.</p>
<p>If you have a <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/constipation/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Constipation">constipation</a> refer to <a href="/healing/2008/07/how-to-treat-constipation-self-healing-techniques-series/">How to Treat Constipation</a>.</p>
<h2>Advice on <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/diet/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with diet">diet</a></h2>
<p>As mentioned in the introduction, your <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/diet/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with diet">diet</a> is really important if you have <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/hemorrhoids/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Hemorrhoids">hemorrhoids</a> or you want to avoid those.</p>
<p>Your daily <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/diet/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with diet">diet</a> should include sufficient amount of liquids (between 2 to 3 liters) and products possessing salutary action on intestinal peristalsis - black and bran bread, crude vegetables and fruit, prunes, cereal and buckwheat groats.</p>
<p>It&#8217;d be beneficial to avoid entirely consuming whole milk and products from refined white flour. Sour-milk products on the other hand, like yogurts, are good for your <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/diet/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with diet">diet</a>.</p>
<p>Recipes of vegetable dishes for people suffering of <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/hemorrhoids/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Hemorrhoids">hemorrhoids</a></p>
<h2>Pumpkin Salad <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/recipe/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with recipe">Recipe</a></h2>
<p>Ingredients:</p>
<ul>
<li>500 gram of grated pumpkin</li>
<li>3 grated apples</li>
<li>Juice of one lemon or orange</li>
<li>Crushed walnuts</li>
<li>3 table spoons of honey</li>
</ul>
<p>Mix all the ingredients together.</p>
<h2>Onion Salad <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/recipe/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with recipe">Recipe</a></h2>

<ul>

<li>1 apple</li>
<li>50 gram of grated cheese of any kind</li>
</ul>
<p>Cut the onion in small slices, pour boiling hot water on it and then cold water. (Boiling hot water will make the onion less bitter)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In my experience abdominal muscles are the hardest to maintain in good shape. This is even harder for women. It works in the best way if this is being done from the young age. It&#8217;s much harder to do if you weren&#8217;t paying attention to it and now decided to get a flat <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/stomach/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with stomach">stomach</a> and trim your <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/waistline/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with waistline">waistline</a>.</p>
<h3>Why we need to keep our stomachs flat?</h3>
<p>The obvious reason - is to look &#8220;good&#8221;, the less obvious one is to be healthy. Having a flat <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/stomach/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with stomach">stomach</a> helps prevent injuries and various diseases that can otherwise develop.</p>
<h3><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/goal-setting/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with goal setting">Goal Setting</a></h3>
<p>Before you even start the process on getting your <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/stomach/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with stomach">stomach</a> flat, it&#8217;s very important to set the intention and visualise your <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/stomach/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with stomach">stomach</a> flat. Your sub-consciousness will play a big part in this process and it&#8217;ll do everything to bring you to the image you&#8217;ve created. So every time you start exercises, see yourself the way you want to look.</p>
<p><span id="more-178"></span>These exercises don&#8217;t take a lot of time - only 5 to 10 minutes daily. But you need to do those regularly, so that they become a second nature to you.</p>
<p>Most likely the transformation will not happen overnight, so get ready to persevere and get where you want to be. It&#8217;ll be a long journey, and every step brings you closer to the goal. Self <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/determination/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with determination">determination</a> is a key here.</p>
<h3><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/nutrition/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with nutrition">Nutrition</a></h3>
<p>You can <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/exercise/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with exercise">exercise</a> forever, but if won&#8217;t do you any good if your eating habits are bad. This is because any weight you lose exercising, you can quickly re-gain because you don&#8217;t eat properly. So it&#8217;s important that as you set off on this journey you review your dietary habits and make some adjustments.</p>
<p>Avoid eating too much fat foods. Eat more healthy foods like vegetables, fruit, whole wheat bread, low fat cheese, yogurts and foods containing complete proteins, vegetable fats. Drink natural fruit juices and a lot of water.</p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/exercise/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with exercise">Exercise</a></p>
<p>There are two approaches to choose from:</p>
<ol>
<li>- To train all three groups of <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/stomach/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with stomach">stomach</a> muscles daily</li>
<li>- To train only one group of muscles per day. For example: </li>
</ol>
<blockquote><ol>
<li>first day - the abdominal exercises</li>
<li>second day - oblique</li>
<li>third day - muscles of the bottom part of <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/stomach/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with stomach">stomach</a></li>
<li>the fourth day - rest.</li>
</ol>
</blockquote>
<p>When you do your exercises do them very slowly, keep your eyes close and imagine the muscles you&#8217;re exercising at that moment.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t forget to breath.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t forget to suck in your <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/stomach/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with stomach">stomach</a> all the time: while walking, standing and sitting, both at work and outside of it.</p>
<p>Example of exercises for <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/stomach/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with stomach">stomach</a> muscles.</p>
<p>In a prone position on the back make 30 straight sit ups, then 30 sit ups to the right knee and another 30 to the left. Carry out these exercises slowly, then repeat them in the same order. Next do the same exercises with a faster rate.</p>
<p>Next time try to freeze at the top of the sit up, hold the breath and execute 15 short and fast micro-sit ups.</p>
<p>With time gradually increase the number of sit ups.</p>
<p>Before and after the exercises it&#8217;s very helpful to do stretching.</p>
<p>I wish you good luck on your journey to flat <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/stomach/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with stomach">stomach</a> and trim <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/waistline/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with waistline">waistline</a>.</p>

<a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/back-pain/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Back Pain">Back pain</a> - one of the most widespread diseases in the world. According to statistic 80% of population of all globe suffer from <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/back-pain/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Back Pain">back pain</a>. This number is not surprising, since most of us lead a sedentary lifestyle, eat incorrectly, walk, sit and stand in bad posture, and many hardly do any physical activity.</p>
<p>The interesting thing is that <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/back-pain/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Back Pain">back pain</a> in not really a disease on its own independent, it&#8217;s actually only a symptom that your body is unhealthy.</p>
<p>For those of us who stays in the same bad posture for extended periods of time and performs a monotonous job, <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/back-pain/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Back Pain">back pain</a> could be accompanied by a sharp muscular spasm.</p>
<p>The condition usually begins with a sudden sharp pain in a waist, less often with some dull pain which eventually grows into sharp pain. When this happens the person  cannot bend or unbend, back muscles are very strained, painful and a slightest movement or a physical pressure could aggravate the pain. Trunk mobility becomes very limited. The pain is often unilateral. Pressing around the  waist area causes sharp pain.
</p>
<h3>Self-Healing Technique</h3>
<p>
Now let&#8217;s talk about how you could help yourself in case you get <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/back-pain/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Back Pain">back pain</a>. <br />
<span id="more-172"></span><br />
According to <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/su-jok/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Su Jok">Su Jok</a> the backbone corresponds to certain areas on our palms. You can see the corresponding areas on figures 1 to 4.</p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/back-pain-1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-173" title="back-pain-1" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/back-pain-1-300x199.jpg" alt="back-pain-1" width="300" height="199" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/back-pain-2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-174" title="back-pain-2" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/back-pain-2-300x199.jpg" alt="back-pain-2" width="300" height="199" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/back-pain-3.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-175" title="back-pain-3" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/back-pain-3-300x199.jpg" alt="back-pain-3" width="300" height="199" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/back-pain-4.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-176" title="back-pain-4" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/back-pain-4-300x199.jpg" alt="back-pain-4" width="300" height="199" /></a></p>
<p>
Next you need to find the exact areas that correspond to your specific pain.</p>
<p>The pain in the area between the most acting cervical vertebra and bottom edge of scapula is presented in figures as &#8220;Thoracic vertebrae T1-T8 ( Upper back )&#8221;.</p>
<p>The pain in the area between edge of scapula and the waist is presented in figures as &#8220;Thoracic vertebrae T9 -T12 ( Middle back )&#8221;.</p>
<p>The pain in the area of the waist is presented in figures as &#8220;Lumbar vertebrae L1 - L5 ( Waist )&#8221;.</p>
<p>The pain in the area between the waist and the tailbone presented in figures as &#8220;Sacrum S1 - S5&#8243;.</p>
<p>Areas corresponding to a backbone on fingers ( figure 3 )<br />
are located on each finger except for your thumb (on figure 3 only on one finger is shown). 
</p>
<h3>Treatment</h3>
<h3>Step 1</h3>
<p>
Find the most painful points on one or several of the areas depicted on figures 1, 2, 3, and 4 (for this purpose it is very good to use a <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/massage/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with massage">massage</a> stick ) and then <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/massage/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with massage">massage</a> these areas. This is the same technique as explained in &#8220;<a href="/healing/2008/07/how-to-prevent-repetitive-strain-injury-rsi-self-healing-techniques-series/">How to Prevent Repetitive Strain Injury</a> (RSI)&#8221; step 2.</p>
<p>Do this procedure 10 - 15 minutes.
</p>
<h3>Step 2</h3>
<p>
Next step is to <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/massage/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with massage">massage</a> areas on your fingers (figure 3 ) corresponding to your <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/back-pain/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Back Pain">back pain</a> using a <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/spring-ring/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with spring ring">spring ring</a>. If you can&#8217;t find one use an ordinary elastic band. Make movements along the finger according to figure 5.</p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/back-pain-5.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-177" title="back-pain-5" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/back-pain-5-300x199.jpg" alt="back-pain-5" width="300" height="199" /></a></p>
<p>
Do this procedure a few times a day.
</p>
<h3>Step 3</h3>
<p>
Now you need to heat up these areas with <a href="/healing/2008/07/how-to-use-moxa/">Moxa</a>.
</p>
<h3>Step 4</h3>
<p>
The final step is to apply buckwheat <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/seeds/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with seeds">seeds</a> to the area corresponding to your <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/back-pain/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Back Pain">back pain</a>. This is the same technique as explained in &#8220;<a href="/healing/2008/07/how-to-get-rid-of-neck-pain-self-healing-techniques-series/">How To Get Rid Of Neck Pain</a>&#8221; step 3.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Quite a few of us suffer from <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/bad-eyesight/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with bad eyesight">bad eyesight</a>. Some developed that during their childhood, while reading too much with a flashlight at nights, others have been progressively losing their sight with age. <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/bad-eyesight/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with bad eyesight">Bad eyesight</a> can have different manifestations - some can&#8217;t see well at a distance, others can&#8217;t see close objects unaided.</p>
<p>Whatever your problem is don&#8217;t rush to go and get a eyeglasses prescription, instead try to improve your eyesight by yourself. Getting <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/glasses/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with glasses">glasses</a> is like taking drugs, instead of taking care of the cause of the problem, <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/glasses/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with glasses">glasses</a> only help deal with manifestation of the problem.</p>
<p>The following techniques from <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/su-jok/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Su Jok">Su Jok</a> will help you improve your vision.</p>
<p><span id="more-168"></span></p>
<h3>Self-Treatment Technique</h3>
<p>Start with <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/massage/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with massage">massage</a> of points on your hand according to figure 1.</p>
<p>Using  a little stick with a not too sharp edge (a toothpick with a broken sharp edge, ball pen without ink and will do). Press these points with a moderate effort and begin a slow rotation of the stick in two directions. Do this procedure 1-2 times a day.</p>
<p>Next using a red felt tip marker paint those points you&#8217;ve just massaged (figure 1). Do this procedure 3 times a week.</p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/decrease-sight-1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-169" title="decrease-sight-1" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/decrease-sight-1-300x211.jpg" alt="decrease-sight-1" width="300" height="211" /></a></p>
<p>Do this treatment for a month then make a break for a few weeks and if your sight doesn&#8217;t improve repeat the treatment for another month.</p>
<p>Note: You can apply the treatment to either hand (or both), but <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/su-jok/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Su Jok">Su Jok</a> therapy recommends  the right hand for women and the left one for men.</p>
<h3>Case Study<br />
</h3>
<p>A patient of mine, 45-year-old woman told to me that her daughter had a <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/conjunctivitis/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with conjunctivitis">conjunctivitis</a> virus and after a while my patient caught this illness as well. Hers eyes were very red, purulent and her eyesight drastically worsened. She was treated by her oculist and in two weeks the virus went away, but her sight gotten even worse. The patient complained that everything seems to be foggy to her. Her doctor told that process of sight restoration can take up to two years. She was in a shock because her specialty was pedicure and manicure and she couldn&#8217;t do her work without her good eye vision.</p>
<p>She was in despair and I suggested to treat her using <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/su-jok/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Su Jok">Su Jok</a> technique.</p>
<h2>Diagnosis</h2>
<p>According to <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/su-jok/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Su Jok">Su Jok</a> theory a decrease of a sharp sight is connected to an excess of Dryness or Coldness energy.<br />
 Conjunctiva of eye has to do with  Heat energy in structure of <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/liver/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with liver">Liver</a> meridian. Therefore the aim of the treatment was to reduce of subbranch Dryness of Heat branch of the UM-Wind energy.</p>
<h3>Treatment</h3>
<p>According to my diagnosis I performed <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/acupuncture/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Acupuncture">acupuncture</a> on byol meridians and on points corresponding to eyes in the different corresponding systems ( figure 2 ).</p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/decrease-sight-2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-170" title="decrease-sight-2" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/decrease-sight-2-300x211.jpg" alt="decrease-sight-2" width="300" height="211" /></a></p>
<p>In addition I told her to apply grains of black pepper on corresponding points at home.</p>
<p>I did three sessions of this treatment. After first session her sight improved by about 30%, after second session she could see almost normally and after the third one her sight was completely restored.</p>
<p>My patient was very surprised that the whole treatment took just a single week, whereas her doctor predicted a very long recovery period.</p>
<p>If you liked this self-healing technique, “<a href="/healing/2008/06/self-healing-techniques-or-how-to-be-your-own-doctor/">Self Healing Series</a>” has more self-empowering materials.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are probably not many people who haven&#8217;t at least once in their lives &#8220;caught&#8221; an acute viral nasopharyngitis, also known as acute coryza, usually referred to as the <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/common-cold/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with common cold">common cold</a>.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s probably safe to say that this is the most common disease. The cold, <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/nasal-congestion/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with nasal congestion">nasal congestion</a>, <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/sore-throat/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with sore throat">sore throat</a>, <a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/cough/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with cough">cough</a> and accompanying problems such as headaches and discomfort are symptoms of this acute respiratory disease.</p>
<p>While it&#8217;s possible to treat this disease, the best is to  avoid getting it in first place, in particular for children, who have the hardest time coping with it.</p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/tag/su-jok/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Su Jok">Su Jok</a> therapy has some simple techniques one can use to prevent and to get rid of this disease.<br />
 <span id="more-161"></span></p>
<h3>Step 1</h3>
<p>First you need to find necessary points for our treatment. These points are on our hands  and they correspond to  nose, throat and  larynx. See figures 1 and 2.</p>
<p><a href="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/cold-1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-162" title="cold-1" src="http://alternativefelix.com/healing/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/cold-1-225x300.jpg" alt="cold-1" width="225" height="300" /></a></p>
