During hair growth, chemical residues, toxins, drugs, heavy metals and radiation all present themselves in the hair fibre protein.  Hair stores these chemicals as a permanent record, similar to the rings of a tree.  A three inch hair strand will give a 6 month history as to what’s going on in the body.  For this reason hair provides a better indication of the body stores in comparison to blood or urine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hair Analysis can be used to identify the root of an illness.  It is especially useful when the illness seems to be a mystery.  Hair Analysis can identify specific chemical toxins within the human body, as well as the vitamin and mineral deficiencies caused by them.  Potentially toxic elements and levels of essential elements necessary for normal body function can all be identified in the laboratory analysis.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some indicators of early signs of metabolic disturbances that may lead to serious problems if ignored are:&lt;br /&gt;White spots in the nails, stretch marks, and lack of nail growth can indicate a possible zinc deficiency&lt;br /&gt;Longitudinal ridging in the nails may indicate an iron deficiency&lt;br /&gt;Brittle hair and nails can show calcium and copper imbalance&lt;br /&gt;Autistic behaviours and mood swings linked to possible toxic metal accumulation like lead, mercury, or cadmium.&lt;br /&gt;A Hair tissue mineral analysis will help detect these early warning signs, helping to prevent potential illnesses and health problems.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Find a Hair Analysis practitioner in your area:  &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HPRHairAnalysis.html&quot;&gt;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HPRHairAnalysis.html&lt;/a&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/feeds/3924653515954212899/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/2272539704766180105/3924653515954212899' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/3924653515954212899'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/3924653515954212899'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/2009/01/hair-analysis-australia.html' title='Hair Analysis Australia'/><author><name>Lyn and Fiona</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02550675520377445862</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272539704766180105.post-426414359181144760</id><published>2009-01-27T18:49:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-27T18:51:55.107-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Bach Flower Remedies Australia</title><content type='html'>Bach Flower Remedies Australia- &lt;br /&gt;Bach flower remedies were developed by Dr Edward Bach in the 1930’s. These remedies are different to conventional medicine in the way that they work on balancing the emotions of the individual rather than physically treating the problem.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dr Bach believed that disease is the result of imbalance between mind, body and soul. Thirty eight remedies were developed by Dr Bach which are prepared from wild flowers and tree blossoms. Rescue Remedy is probably the best known Bach remedy which is believed to relieve stress, anxiety and panic attacks. The flower remedies have been divided into 7 groups of fundamental emotions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The aim of the Bach flower remedies is to balance negative emotions by turning them into positive emotions before physical problems appear. Different theories have been suggested as to how the Bach flowers actually restore out of balance emotions, one being that they actually change our energy vibration.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bach Flower Remedies are taken as 2 to 4 drops in a glass of water 4 times a day, or as advised by practitioner .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Find a Bach Flower Practitioner in an area near you:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HPRBachFlowers.html&quot;&gt;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HPRBachFlowers.html&lt;/a&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/feeds/426414359181144760/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/2272539704766180105/426414359181144760' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/426414359181144760'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/426414359181144760'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/2009/01/bach-flower-remedies-australia.html' title='Bach Flower Remedies Australia'/><author><name>Lyn and Fiona</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02550675520377445862</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272539704766180105.post-1459073859425586057</id><published>2009-01-26T18:09:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-26T18:20:30.907-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Australian Bush Flower Essences</title><content type='html'>Australian Bush Flower Essences- The healing properties of flowers have been used for thousands of years by the Australian Aborigines and the ancient Egyptians, as well as many other cultures around the world.

It is believed that living with nature rather than against it, benefits humans and our environment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our lives are affected by our physical and emotional environment.

We are all made up of energy, as is everything in the Universe. Even our thoughts and emotions are energy.  This energy vibrates at a certain speed depending on the object.  The higher the vibrations the harder it is for us to see with our physical eyes, this is why we cannot see the spirit-world, spirit is the highest vibration of all.  Nothing that we see is solid, it appears solid because it is vibrating so fast.  Our body and every organ in the human body has its own natural healthy vibratory rate called a ‘resonance’.  When our body part vibrates out of resonance it creates dis-ease. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are four energy systems of the body, they are the Chakra, Meridian, Aura and the Nadis. These energy systems are connected to the organs and glands of the physical body.  When energy to an area becomes disrupted, the organs etc are less able to defend themselves against disease.  Stress is a warning sign that the energy systems are disturbed, if no notice is taken of this warning signal the imbalance will continue and the end result is illness or disease in the physical body.  Disease is the signal to change what is not working harmoniously in our life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Imbalances and blockages in the energy systems are caused by traumatic experiences, limiting beliefs about ourselves, anxiety, stress, toxins, bad nutrition, posture, lack of exercise, remaining in a situation that is not harmonious for our soul, or anything that causes us to feel negative emotions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ENERGY HEALING is the umbrella that all healing practices focusing on the body’s energy systems applies to. There are many therapies that belong in this category.  Some of the more commonly known practices are Reiki, Spiritual Healing, Kinesiology, Thought Field Therapy, Emotional Freedom Therapy, Reflexology, Acupuncture, Aura and Chakra Balancing, Crystal Healing, Colour Therapy, Sound Therapy, Flower essences, Aromatherapy and Vibrational Therapy. Often two or more of these therapies will be combined together. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All of these therapies work toward re-establishing the proper and correct vibratory frequencies for the body.  They consider the energy within and around the physical body and by correcting this, facilitate the innate healing process of the body.  If we keep the body frequency high enough and well oxygenated, we will be free of disease.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Find an Energy Healer Sunshine Coast &amp;amp; Australia at&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HPREnergyHealing.html&quot;&gt;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HPREnergyHealing.html&lt;/a&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/feeds/9029184436406607062/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/2272539704766180105/9029184436406607062' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/9029184436406607062'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/9029184436406607062'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/2009/01/energy-healing-sunshine-coast-australia.html' title='Energy Healing Sunshine Coast &amp; Australia'/><author><name>Lyn and Fiona</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02550675520377445862</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272539704766180105.post-4021747957917372355</id><published>2008-11-06T00:04:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-11-06T00:14:08.436-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Emotional Freedom Technique Sunshine Coast</title><content type='html'>Emotional Freedom Technique Sunshine Coast- What Is EFT?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We all have a complex system of energy circuits that run throughout our bodies which are called Meridians. You know the energy is there but it cannot be seen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our unresolved negative emotions are major contributors to most physical pains and diseases which cause our energy system to become imbalanced. This is where Emotional Freedom Technique comes in. It is a type of acupuncture, but without the needles, which is performed by tapping the fingertips on certain established meridian points within the body, resulting in the correction of any imbalances.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pinpointing a certain negative event in your life that may be causing a block can speed up the process. Instead of taking months or years of using conventional talk therapy, EFT can often work in one or two sessions. You will start to see how physical ailments begin to fade. Addictions are no longer there, vision improved and so on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EFT is a wonderful therapy for anyone wishing to enhance their life.  It has had amazing results, sometimes instantly, with emotional and physical conditions including headaches, back pain, fears and phobias, trauma, depression, grief, schizophrenia and a huge range of physical illnesses from the common cold to cancer.  Emotional Freedom Technique has had positive results where other therapies have failed to make a difference.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The EFT procedure is carried out as the client is seated, clothing remains on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To Find An EFT Practitioner on the Sunshine Coast go to:  &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HSEFT.html&quot;&gt;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HSEFT.html&lt;/a&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/feeds/4021747957917372355/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/2272539704766180105/4021747957917372355' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/4021747957917372355'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/4021747957917372355'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/2008/11/emotional-freedom-technique-sunshine.html' title='Emotional Freedom Technique Sunshine Coast'/><author><name>Lyn and Fiona</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02550675520377445862</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272539704766180105.post-3742319364129583296</id><published>2008-10-28T02:51:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-28T02:54:22.330-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="crystal healing"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="crystal therapy"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="crystals"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="holistic health"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="natural therapy"/><title type='text'>Crystal Therapy Sunshine Coast</title><content type='html'>Crystal Therapy Sunshine Coast- Crystal Therapy is the ancient practise of using gems, stones and crystals to enhance mental, spiritual and physical healing.  Some believe it dates back to the ancient civilizations of Atlantis or even Lemuria. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The powerful energies of the crystals have a positive affect on any imbalances in the human energy field, which in turn promotes healing of the physical body, mind and spirit. Each chakra resonates to a particular colour. The crystal’s vibrations and the person’s own vibrations interact, creating energy flow and with this, the releasing of physical and emotional blocks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During a Crystal Therapy session the client will lay, fully clothed, on a couch or massage table. The therapist will ask a series of questions and assess the condition of the client’s energy field before choosing which crystals will best bring the aura back into balance.  Small stones are then placed on and around the body at the chakra points and meridians.  The practitioner will channel healing energy while the crystals are working their magic. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Crystal Therapy works in conjunction with the body’s own innate healing system.

After my visit to this Maroochydore healing centre all I can say is “Why isn’t ‘Kinesiology’ a household word” and “Why hasn’t everyone heard about Accent Longevity?”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I recently visited Accent Longevity for a Kinesiology treatment. Sarah first showed me around the centre and I was extremely surprised at the size of the facility. Not only is Accent Longevity a Healing Centre consisting of Kinesiology, Acupuncture &amp;amp; Chinese Medicine, Massage, Nutrition and Naturopathy, but also a seminar and yoga room, an exercise room for personal training and a much needed medical centre that refers it’s patients to the natural therapists at Accent Longevity for further healing! This was one aspect that really impressed me, goodness knows how much we need general practitioners that are open to the benefits of natural therapies and natural medicines. There are still so many people that have absolutely no idea of the vast range of holistic therapies and medicines available to them, the amount of people who have no idea of the importance of balancing the energy system as well as the physical body.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is no need to go any further when it comes to supplementation and medication. The fully stocked dispensary has everything that you may be prescribed, right there on site and best of all, it’s 100% natural- no toxic synthetic drugs whatsoever!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another great aspect of Accent Longevity is the fact that it is situated just down the road, only 5 minutes walk from Sunshine Plaza.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you would like some assistance to lose those un-budging kilos- Accent Longevity will happily create a Natural Health Program just for you. They also specialise in Emotional and Physical Pain programs and Stress Minimization and Management programs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yet another aspect of Accent Longevity that really captured my attention and impressed me thoroughly, is the Healthy Eating Supermarket Tours- taken by the Accent Longevity Nutritionist. To me, this stood out as an invaluable service! Half the battle these days concerning weight problems and medical illnesses is the constant consuming of toxic processed foods. Most people really have no idea whatsoever of the amount of fats and hidden poisons they are inflicting on their body every time they ingest these processed products. The Accent Longevity nutritionist will show you how to read the confusing labels, pointing out what is healthy and what is not! If you have food intolerances and allergies, this service is a MUST!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, onto my treatment with Sarah--WOW, is all I can say! This really was a treat that left me wondering why I had never been to Sarah for a kinesiology treatment before. Absolutely brilliant is how I would describe it. The first thing that struck me about Sarah was her vast knowledge of her chosen modality. Her personal yet professional approach ensured I felt comfortable yet extremely confident in her ability.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the initiation of the appointment Sarah asked me a few basic questions such as “Any emotional issues at the moment”, “Any broken bones in the past” and a couple of others. Who would of thought that these few simple questions would enable her to read me like a book? Just from these questions Sarah knew that I had digestive problems, cramping in my legs and the one that really got me, was the grinding of my teeth. Until a recent visit to the dentist I had no idea whatsoever that I even had this condition, but since the day this was suggested to me, I have made a conscious effort to take note, and sure enough, I do clench my jaw a lot- which in turn grinds my teeth together.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I lay on the bed, Sarah muscle tested me via Kinesiology to see where my energy blockages lay. This process truly is amazing and one you really have to witness to be able to get the concept of. Via asking the body a series of questions and getting the response in the form of a certain muscular reaction in my arms, Sarah was able to balance many blockages in my energetic body. This was most fascinating because you can actually witness the muscle reaction to a blockage and then physically see the correction in the muscles after the re- balancing has been completed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For anyone who has never heard of, or experienced Kinesiology, all testing is done through a movement of the arm. When there is a blockage of some sort, the test on the arm muscle will show a weak muscle reaction, no matter how hard you might try to hold your arm strong- it is just not going to happen! On correction of the blockage the muscle automatically becomes really strong without any effort on your behalf at all. It really is a most fascinating modality and one that everyone should experience. The things you will find out about your body, mind and spirit will stun you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a fantastic modality to help you tune into the ‘real you’, and find out what emotional issues are hovering below the surface that you are unaware of, emotional issues that if not dealt with will eventually cause dis-ease in the body. Sarah’s intuitiveness will help you uncover emotional issues you never knew you had. Kinesiology will ensure that you get to the real cause of any physical pain. By getting to the source of the problem and not just dealing with the symptoms you will witness true healing of a holistic nature. Kinesiology is a modality that can help with all issues, emotional or physical!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I highly recommend Accent Longevity for anyone interested in taking charge of their health. Don’t wait until you have an illness, take action today and enjoy the opportunity to improve your health as well as nurture your body, mind and spirit. The health resources you have, altogether in this one healing centre, are invaluable. If you are unsure as to what modality would best suit your needs, call in and see the staff and let them help you to make the right choices that could prove vital for your health.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7/33 Plaza ParadeMaroochydore Qld 4558 Phone: (07) 5443 3177Fax: (07) 5443 2277&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a class=&quot;bodytext16&quot; href=&quot;http://www.a-ha.com.au/&quot; target=&quot;_top&quot;&gt;http://www.a-ha.com.au/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Review by Lyn Nichols &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.spiritualnewageguide.com.au/&quot; target=&quot;_top&quot;&gt;Spiritual New Age Guide &lt;/a&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/feeds/7276558131627227698/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/2272539704766180105/7276558131627227698' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/7276558131627227698'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/7276558131627227698'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/2008/09/nutrition-sunchine-coast-acupuncture.html' title='Nutrition Sunshine Coast- Acupuncture, Kinesiology- ACCENT LONGEVITY'/><author><name>Lyn and Fiona</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02550675520377445862</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272539704766180105.post-7997909658573827811</id><published>2008-08-19T18:30:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-19T18:34:12.549-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Craniosacral Therapy Sunshine Coast/ What is Craniosacral Therapy</title><content type='html'>Craniosacral Therapy Sunshine Coast-  Craniosacral therapy is a gentle, non-invasive therapy that helps take stress out of the central nervous system, enhancing the body’s innate healing processes.  The therapy is based on the craniosacral system, which consists of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surrounds and protects the brain and spinal cord, it extends from the skull to the tailbone.  Imbalances in this system could cause problems such as scoliosis, eye difficulties, motor-coordination impairments, learning disabilities and other dysfunctions of the central nervous system.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Craniosacral therapy involves the practitioner lightly evaluating the rhythm of the movement of cerebrospinal fluid, felt at different areas around the body.  The practitioner can feel at the head for symmetry of the cranial bones and the flow of spinal fluid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This therapy is particularly good for head and spinal injuries.

This is not a painful process, you may feel a mild pressure but that is all.

Chiropractic is a natural, drug free treatment carried out by a chiropractor. It aims to improve health and wellbeing by improving the nervous system.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chiropractors have a brilliant understanding of the structure of the spinal column, spinal cord and central nervous system as well as knowledge of the chemical reactions and processes that occur in the nervous system and how these affect the working of the body. Contrary to the way some people think of chiropractic, it is actually more about the nervous system and keeping good open channels of communication so that the innate healing ability of the body can work effectively and efficiently, than the adjustment of bones. Regular adjustments can detect or prevent spinal stress, keeping the body at an optimal level and maintaining general wellbeing. Chiropractic patients range from babies to the elderly. Vertebrae can become misaligned during the birth process, though if detected early are easily corrected.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chiropractic has successfully treated conditions such as Arthritis, Asthma, Emotional Problems, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Low Back Pain, Neck Pain, Sports injuries, Shoulder, arm and hand problems, Colic, PMS, Scoliosis, Disc Herniation, Ear infections, Headaches and Migraines, Hip problems, Knee problems, Sinus problems, Whiplash and motor vehicle accidents.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Warning signs of an unhealthy spine may include:&lt;br /&gt;Headaches, back aches, sore or tender spots in muscle or joints&lt;br /&gt;Uneven wear patterns in your shoes&lt;br /&gt;Feeling stiff when you wake in the morning&lt;br /&gt;Your foot points out more on one side when you stand&lt;br /&gt;You have a limp when you walk&lt;br /&gt;You have poor posture&lt;br /&gt;A low resistance to disease&lt;br /&gt;You fatigue easily&lt;br /&gt;You feel joint and muscle pains&lt;br /&gt;You hold your tension in your shoulders&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To find a Sunshine Coast Chiropractor go to:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HPRChiropractors.html&quot;&gt;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HPRChiropractors.html&lt;/a&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/feeds/3635000476259897181/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/2272539704766180105/3635000476259897181' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/3635000476259897181'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/3635000476259897181'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/2008/08/chiropractic-sunshine-coast-what-is.html' title='Chiropractic Sunshine Coast- What is Chiropractic?'/><author><name>Lyn and Fiona</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02550675520377445862</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272539704766180105.post-8034803796840339796</id><published>2008-08-06T20:26:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-19T18:39:18.015-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Bowen Therapy Sunshine Coast- What is Bowen Therapy?</title><content type='html'>Bowen Therapy Sunshine Coast-  Bowen Therapy is a dynamic system of muscle and connective tissue therapy that produces fast and lasting relief from pain and discomfort.

Acupuncture is used when there is a disruption of the energy flow or vital force in the body. This energy flow is said to flow through a system of channels or meridians. Disruption to that flow will manifest itself as disease in those parts of the body that are supplied by the affected meridian.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The aim of acupuncture is to restore the balance of energy flow in the body.&lt;br /&gt;The most common type of acupuncture used today is through the insertion of tiny needles into specific meridian energy centres in the body. Acupuncture is not only used for pain relief but also for a wide range of medical problems. The word “acup” is derived from the Latin acu meaning “with a needle”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Universal Energy consists of Yin and Yang and these two opposites, both complementary forces, need to be in balance otherwise disease or illness occurs in the body. This is where acupuncture is extremely beneficial.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To find an acupuncturist on the Sunshine Coast see &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HPRAcupuncture.html&quot;&gt;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HPRAcupuncture.html&lt;/a&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/feeds/8717573236472183927/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/2272539704766180105/8717573236472183927' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/8717573236472183927'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/8717573236472183927'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/2008/08/acupuncture-sunshine-coast.html' title='Acupuncture Sunshine Coast/ Acupuncturist Sunshine Coast'/><author><name>Lyn and Fiona</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02550675520377445862</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272539704766180105.post-4122147135974411654</id><published>2008-06-15T14:42:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-19T18:40:15.118-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Body Talk Sunshine Coast/ What is Body Talk?</title><content type='html'>Body Talk Sunshine Coast - &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HSBodyTalk.html&quot;&gt;Body Talk&lt;/a&gt; is a simple yet highly effective form of therapy that reconnects the body’s energy systems and allows the body to heal effectively from the inside out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each one of the body’s systems, cells and atoms are in constant communication with each other, this is what allows the body to heal itself so efficiently, but the stresses of everyday life along with environmental influences, trauma, accidents and diet can compromise this communication, affecting the physical, emotional and mental well-being of a person.

So in fact it is the clients own body telling the practitioner where the imbalance lays.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each disrupted energy circuit has a corresponding point which the practitioner contacts with their hands. The practitioner then lightly taps the client on top of the head stimulating the brain centre and focusing the brain towards repair, experiments have proven that there is a major increase in brain activity in relation to the body part being touched during this stage of the treatment. As the heart is responsible for communicating to the rest of the body the state of the body’s health, the Practitioner then taps the sternum to announce the corrected energy flow to the rest of the body. Stimulating the heart in this way forces the heart to store the new energy patterns in the body’s cellular memory.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Body Talk practitioner follows....... read more at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HSBodyTalk.html&quot;&gt;Holistic Health Guide&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Find a Body Talk practitoner&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HPRBodyTalk.html&quot;&gt;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HPRBodyTalk.html&lt;/a&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/feeds/4122147135974411654/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/2272539704766180105/4122147135974411654' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/4122147135974411654'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/4122147135974411654'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/2008/06/what-is-body-talk.html' title='Body Talk Sunshine Coast/ What is Body Talk?'/><author><name>Lyn and Fiona</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02550675520377445862</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272539704766180105.post-5444474217918048317</id><published>2008-05-23T21:40:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-05-26T22:57:22.074-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Natural Health With Miracle Mineral Solution</title><content type='html'>Every once in a while a product or a person comes along that is so brilliant and inspirational that you just want to shout it out to the world! Well, we have come across both! The man&#39;s name is Jim Humble and the product we are referring to is Miracle Mineral Solution.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Miracle Mineral Solution (MMS) is a &quot;stabilized oxygen&quot; formulation that is a 28% solution of Sodium Chlorite in distilled water. When a mild acid (lemon or lime juice, or citric acid) is added to a few drops of MMS, Chlorine Dioxide is created and when ingested, produces a major boost to the immune system, killing virtually every known pathogen, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, molds, and yeasts. Chlorine Dioxide is the most powerful killer of pathogens in the body ever known.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What&#39;s more, this product is approximately $25 for a bottle that will last one person up to a year. Just 6 drops a day is all you need to maintain optimum health in the body. For people with serious illnesses, 15 drops twice a day will get you well and truly on your way to better health. You will be absolutely astounded when you listen and read the documented success stories!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While first developed to address Malaria in Africa, it has now been shown to address many toxicity conditions that are directly or indirectly related to pathogens. There is documentation of over 75,000 cases of Malaria being overcome in Africa. Often in as little as 4 hours all symptoms are gone and the victim is tested clear of Malaria. It is now known that chlorine dioxide, as used in the MMS protocol, can be used to overcome toxicity contributors to such conditions as AIDS, Hepatitis A,B&amp;amp;C, Typhoid, most cancers, herpes, pneumonia, food poisoning, tuberculosis, asthma, colds, flu and a host of other conditions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even conditions not directly related to pathogens seem to be helped due to the huge boost to the body&#39;s immune system (by way of reduction in the body&#39;s toxic load), i.e., macular degeneration, allergies, lupus, inflammatory bowel disorders, diabetes, snake bites and fibromyalgia. Please note that MMS doesn&#39;t cure anything, but rather it reduces the toxic load which helps our body to heal itself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have recently watched a DVD on MMS and the founder of this product-Jim Humble. The honesty and integrity of this beautifull man bought tears to my eyes several times throughout the DVD. This is a man who&#39;s main mission is to bring MMS to the world for the sake of human health, not to get rich and line his own pocket-if this was the case he would be charging alot more than a mere $25 a bottle for this incredible product.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please take the time to read or listen to the information provided below for the sake of your family&#39;s health and for the sake of your own pocket. Here is a Natural Medicine more powerfull than anything ever known, that is cheap, that cannot build up in your body and produce other diseases and side effects at a later date, unlike synthetic medicines/antibiotics prescribed by your doctor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To find out more on MMS you could try these different links.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.productdescriptions.info/&quot; target=&quot;_top&quot;&gt;http://www.productdescriptions.info/&lt;/a&gt; very informative site on MMS and many other amazing products&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.curezone.com/&quot; target=&quot;_top&quot;&gt;http://www.curezone.com/&lt;/a&gt; has MMS forums… one of which is specifically support, not debate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.healthsalon.org/&quot; target=&quot;_top&quot;&gt;http://www.healthsalon.org/&lt;/a&gt; has links to many other sites on MMS and other natural modalities&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.phaelos.com/&quot; target=&quot;_top&quot;&gt;http://www.phaelos.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.talkforfood.com/&quot; target=&quot;_top&quot;&gt;http://www.talkforfood.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For more information on MMS send us an &lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@holistichealthguide.com.au&quot;&gt;email&lt;/a&gt;.</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/feeds/5444474217918048317/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/2272539704766180105/5444474217918048317' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/5444474217918048317'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/5444474217918048317'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/2008/05/natural-health-with-miracle-mineral.html' title='Natural Health With Miracle Mineral Solution'/><author><name>Lyn and Fiona</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02550675520377445862</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272539704766180105.post-2703435918778830920</id><published>2008-05-22T00:49:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-19T18:41:17.916-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Ayurveda Sunshine Coast/ Ayurvedic Medicine</title><content type='html'>Ayurveda Sunshine Coast- &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HSAyurveda.html&quot;&gt;Ayurveda&lt;/a&gt; is an ancient, holistic system of medicine originating in India, thousands of years ago. It is a complete way of life for many people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The word ‘Ayurveda’ means ‘Knowledge of Life’. It is a practice that provides guidance for maintaining health, or improving health where necessary. Ayurveda is a system that uses the inherent principles of nature to bring the individual back into balance. It is a practice that considers the mind, the body, the senses and the soul. Its preventative health care encompasses Herbal Medicine, changes in diet, meditation, massage and Yoga. According to Ayurveda each person is made up of the five primary elements of nature- air, fire, water, ether (space) and earth. These elements combine to form what is known as the 3 Doshas or Metabolic Body Types. These are:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vata dosha- is a combination of the ether and air elements. It is seen as the force which directs nerve impulses, circulation, respiration, and elimination as it governs the principle of movement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pitta dosha- is the combination of the fire and water elements. This dosha is responsible for the process of transforming food into nutrients (metabolism). It is responsible for metabolism in the organ and tissue systems as well as cellular metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kapha dosha- is the combination of the water and earth elements. This dosha is responsible for growth and protection. An example of this is the Cerebral-spinal fluid that protects the brain and spinal column.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We all have different proportions of these three doshas making up our constitution and because of this, Ayurveda sees each person as a unique individual. This also offers explanation as to why one treatment will not have the same result for every person. When one or more of the doshas become predominant, imbalance of the body and mind may occur. Ayurveda will suggest nutritional and lifestyle changes to bring the individual back into balance. A detoxifying cleansing process may also be suggested.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A consultation with an Ayurveda practitioner will determine your doshic profile. From here the practitioner will prescribe a variety of Ayurvedic treatments depending on the individual.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Find an Ayurveda practitioner Sunshine Coast&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HPRAyurveda.html&quot;&gt;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HPRAyurveda.html&lt;/a&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/feeds/2703435918778830920/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/2272539704766180105/2703435918778830920' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/2703435918778830920'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/2703435918778830920'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/2008/05/natural-health-ayurveda-ayurvedic.html' title='Ayurveda Sunshine Coast/ Ayurvedic Medicine'/><author><name>Lyn and Fiona</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02550675520377445862</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272539704766180105.post-208870950106289065</id><published>2008-05-20T03:23:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-19T18:41:59.067-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="holistic health"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="natural healing"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="natural health"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="vibrational healing"/><title type='text'>Aurasoma Sunshine Coast/ What is Aurasoma?</title><content type='html'>Aura-Soma Sunshine Coast- Aura-Soma is a Vibrational Healing method that uses colour to gain information and restore balance to the energetic layer of our body. This natural healing system was founded by Vicki Wall in 1983.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Science has proven that we, along with everything else in the Universe including colour, are energy, vibrating at different rates. This vibration rate is called our natural ‘resonance’. The Electromagnetic Field (energy field or aura), of the human body is regulated by the Chakra System. The Chakras are energy vortexes that distribute life force energy throughout the body. Each chakra resonates with a particular colour vibration. It is when one or more of the chakra become blocked we feel lethargic or depressed and if this is not corrected results in dis-ease of the physical body.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Via the Aura-Soma System and the colours we are attracted to in the Equilibrium Bottles, the practitioner gains vital information regarding our emotional and physical state. They are then able to synchronize the frequencies of the colours with our own vibratory resonance, restoring balance to the energy centres.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are 106 Equilibrium Bottles in the Aura-Soma System, each consisting of two fractions, an oily fraction over a watery fraction. The upper fraction contains the energies of herbs, plants and crystals. The lower fraction contains herbal extracts, crystals, gem elixirs, and the energies from the Chalice Well in Glastonbury. All of the contents are completely natural and plants are organically grown. The Equilibrium oils are used primarily on the body where they are absorbed into the lymphatic system, then to the endocrine system and then the electromagnetic body (aura).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aura–Soma can be a catalyst for amazing transformation in your life. It can help you to feel more relaxed, re-discover your enthusiasm for life, improve relationships, appreciate yourself, feel more confident, be more loving, rebalance your energy, access your inner self and intuition and transform your life. It helps access strengths, talents, unique gifts, worries or health concerns.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By applying the living energies to the appropriate energy centres you can restore or bring balance to the emotional, mental and spiritual levels of the body.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Find an Aurasoma Therapist Sunshine Coast&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HPRAurasoma.html&quot;&gt;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HPRAurasoma.html&lt;/a&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/feeds/208870950106289065/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/2272539704766180105/208870950106289065' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/208870950106289065'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/208870950106289065'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/2008/05/natural-health-what-is-aurasoma.html' title='Aurasoma Sunshine Coast/ What is Aurasoma?'/><author><name>Lyn and Fiona</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02550675520377445862</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272539704766180105.post-5351732383222554859</id><published>2008-05-15T19:47:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-19T18:42:28.455-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Aromatherapy Sunshine Coast/ What is Aromatherapy?</title><content type='html'>Aromatherapy Sunshine Coast- &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HSAromatherapy.html&quot;&gt;Aromatherapy &lt;/a&gt;is a holistic practice that uses the healing properties of the essential oils for treating illnesses. It addresses both the psychological and physical wellbeing and works in conjunction with the body&#39;s own healing abilities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aromatherapy has been used around the world for thousands of years. The essential oil is an organic liquid extracted from a variety of plants, all with unique healing properties. The therapist chooses which oil would best suit the illness of the individual and goes about applying the essential oil in a variety of ways, the most common being in conjunction with massage. The essential oil is blended with a massage oil and applied directly onto the skin where the healing properties are then absorbed into the bloodstream.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other ways of receiving Aromatherapy and the benefits of essential oils are through inhalation, when the oil is heated in an oil burner. This creates an environment that encourages relaxation and is great for either promoting sleep or stimulating the mind, depending on which oil is used. The oils can be added to hot water to create an aromatic steam and then inhaled for the purpose of relieving sinus congestion and respiratory infection or when someone needs re-hydrating. In a warm bath they are great for soothing tired, sore muscles and other aches and pains or for pure relaxation purposes. For arthritis pain, sore joints, headaches and menstrual pain the oils can be applied to a hot or cold compress, depending on the particular ailment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aromatherapy is a useful tool in achieving the state of mind the therapist wants the client to be in throughout their healing session.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HPRAromatherapy.html&quot;&gt;Find an Aromatherapist&lt;/a&gt; Sunshine Coast</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/feeds/5351732383222554859/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/2272539704766180105/5351732383222554859' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/5351732383222554859'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/5351732383222554859'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/2008/05/what-is-aromatherapy.html' title='Aromatherapy Sunshine Coast/ What is Aromatherapy?'/><author><name>Lyn and Fiona</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02550675520377445862</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272539704766180105.post-5430203491368594024</id><published>2008-04-18T01:54:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-04-18T01:59:05.023-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff99ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:130%;&quot;&gt;What is Fasting?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fasting is the act of voluntarily refraining from eating all foods including juices, tea and coffee. Fasting gives the whole digestive system a rest, allowing the body to cleanse itself thoroughly, often removing years of accumulated impurities and waste matter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fasting is one of Nature’s greatest healing agents as during a fast, energy that is usually directed towards digestion is focused on healing the body. It is safe to fast for 1-3 days without the guidance of an expert.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A total fast means only water is ingested for this period of time. Drinking plenty of water will help to flush toxins from your system and cleanse the body.Gentle exercise such as yoga or walking will also help to eliminate toxins. Choose a time to fast when you can rest and relax, spending time alone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes side effects are experienced such as nausea or headaches – peppermint tea is great for this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Breaking the fast correctly is very important. It is best to begin eating slowly. On the first day eat only raw fruits for easy digestion, the second day add some salad –this will help to get rid of toxins that have accumulated in the intestines. Day 3 you may add some lightly steamed vegetables, on day 4 grains can be added to the diet and by day 5 you may return to a fully-balanced diet. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html&quot; target=&quot;_top&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/feeds/5430203491368594024/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/2272539704766180105/5430203491368594024' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/5430203491368594024'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/5430203491368594024'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/2008/04/what-is-fasting-fasting-is-act-of.html' title=''/><author><name>Lyn and Fiona</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02550675520377445862</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272539704766180105.post-570181323370659775</id><published>2008-04-05T18:20:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-04T21:55:27.667-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="holistic living"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="natural health"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="permaculture"/><title type='text'>Permaculture/ What is Permaculture?</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:130%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff99ff;&quot;&gt;What is Permaculture?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff99ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Permaculture is short for Permanent Agriculture and is the term used for a self sufficient, ecologically harmonious way of living. It is being conscious with regard to our environment and our resources and creating systems to sustain us not only today but in the future.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These systems are designed on the basis of a natural eco-system and are holistic in nature. Permaculture is not just the production of organic food, it takes into account other factors such as energy usage, technologies, natural resources, animal and plant systems and social and economic structures. It is all about getting back to basics, working with nature and looking after the earth for future generations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The principles of Permaculture are ensuring that we get more out of life by using less.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Look after and nurture our natural environment &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Restore damage to the land, forests and waterways &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Grow chemical free food &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Improve and maintain soil fertility &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Make the most of our water supply &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Recycle to reduce pollution &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Use solar energy where possible to reduce the use of fuels &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PERMACULTURE GARDEN &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To have a productive garden we need certain ingredients. Without a good nutritious soil, nothing will grow. The ingredients for a good soil are sand, organic mulch, beneficial bacteria and water. In a permaculture system this is all on hand. Amongst the garden vegetables things such as lemongrass and banana trees are grown to provide a source of organic mulch. Lemongrass can be cut back regularly and banana trees have a constant supply of leaves and sucklings which can be pruned for mulch. Both of these plants provide a food source also, fruit from the banana tree and flavouring from the lemongrass stems. The mulch is added to the soil of the garden and some form of manure is then needed to provide the beneficial bacterial to break the mulch down into organic matter. Chooks, goats, cows etc provide manure which is full of beneficial bacteria, they also provide a food source such as eggs and milk. A worm farm is a great way of ensuring the produce grown is purely organic as they eat the organic matter and manure creating worm castings that are then added to the garden as pure organic matter. By using a worm farm we ensure that all bad bacteria found in manure is removed before adding to the soil which we then grow our vegetables in........ &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HSPermaculture.html&quot;&gt;read more&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/feeds/570181323370659775/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/2272539704766180105/570181323370659775' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/570181323370659775'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2272539704766180105/posts/default/570181323370659775'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://holistichealthdirectory.blogspot.com/2008/04/what-is-permaculture-permaculture-is.html' title='Permaculture/ What is Permaculture?'/><author><name>Lyn and Fiona</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02550675520377445862</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272539704766180105.post-8984236789227177966</id><published>2008-02-18T12:49:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-04-07T14:09:20.584-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Natural Therapies/ Natural Therapists verses Conventional Medicine</title><content type='html'>Our argument for choosing Natural Therapies over conventional medicine is this……… Healers/Natural Therapists understand that illness begins with a blockage or disruption in a person’s energy field. Physical illness is the body’s way of making us aware that there are &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HSSpiritualityandFood.html&quot;&gt;nutritional&lt;/a&gt; and/ or emotional issues that need to be addressed. The physical symptoms we are experiencing are the result of these unattended issues and the imbalance they have caused to the energy field, which over time has manifested into disease of the physical body. If we look at all physical symptoms as a warning sign that something is not right in the energetic field, we allow ourselves the opportunity of complete healing rather than superficial healing of the symptoms only.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Natural Therapists/Healers believe and have proven, that everything is curable. By working with a Natural Therapist or Spiritual Healer we can uncover the cause of the energy disruption and then work to restore the energy field back into balance, automatically resulting in the healing of any physical manifestations of illness we are experiencing. Simply put, ‘illness is DIS-EASE of the energetic body’, caused when one or more chakra become blocked, resulting in unbalance of the energy field, which over time manifests into the physical element of ourselves, resulting in disease or illness of some form. (Read Louise Hay’s book ‘Heal Your Body,’ you will be fascinated by the real reasons behind the different diseases and illnesses we may experience.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So if this is the case, surely it makes sense then, that a healer must consider not only the physical aspect of the body, but also the energetic level where it began in the first place. This is Holistic Healing. Conventional medicine deals with the physical only, treatment is based on dealing with the symptoms a person is having and not on the cause itself. No wonder so many people are able to rid themselves of an illness or disease with conventional medicine, only to find that it later returns, maybe time and time again. It is because they are dealing with the symptom and not the cause. If we could use conventional medicine less and only then in conjunction with natural therapies, we believe every individual would be a lot better off.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Conventional medicine can rid the body of the symptoms of a disease, giving a person the time necessary to deal with the emotional cause of the disease they are experiencing, after all, often we are unaware we have these emotional issues until they have manifested into the physical. Natural Healing techniques are holistic, dealing with the whole of a person, body, mind and spirit. When we can appreciate that we are much more than just ‘a body’, this holistic form of healing will make complete sense. Why would we deal with only one aspect of ourselves, when we have the means right here, at our fingertips, to deal with the body in a holistic manner. (Go to ‘Natural Therapy Practitioners’) You may be thinking ‘How can our thoughts and emotions be the cause of disease and illness?’ Dr Masaru Emoto has proven through experimentation that our thoughts are powerful enough to affect the&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.spiritualnewageguide.com/SSCrystalsInWater.html&quot;&gt; crystal formations in water.&lt;/a&gt; When negative thoughts were directed into a bottle of water that was then frozen, the crystals became smudged and deformed. When loving thoughts were directed into a bottle of water from the exact same source, the crystals were perfectly formed. Imagine then the power our thoughts have over our own bodies and reality. For example, if we are told when we are a child that we are a terrible person and we spend most of our life believing this to be true and thinking these negative thoughts about ourselves, lowering our natural vibratory rate, eventually this negativity will manifest into some form of physical illness, depending on which chakra is affected by the negative thoughts and emotions you have been having. A Natural Therapist will work with the energy field, clearing the negative energy. The whole pattern of your thoughts can be changed so that you are released from the beliefs you may have held most of your life and that are often detrimental to your happiness and health. THIS IS DEALING WITH THE CAUSE, NOT JUST THE SYMPTOMS.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quantum Science is now proving that we are all made up of energy, as is everything in the Universe (see movie ‘What The Bleep Do We Know’). Every cell in our physicality, to every thought going through our mind, it’s all energy. The energy making up our physical bodies is vibrating at a slower rate than the surrounding energy field called the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.spiritualnewageguide.com/SSAuras.html&quot;&gt;Aura&lt;/a&gt;. The Aura is the part of us, along with the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.spiritualnewageguide.com/SSChakras.html&quot;&gt;Chakra system&lt;/a&gt;, that is affected by emotions and thoughts about ourselves and others. The Chakra absorbs and distributes vibrant life force energy to the different areas of the physical body. When there’s an imbalance or blockage in one or more chakra, (caused by traumatic experiences, limiting beliefs about ourselves, anxiety, stress, toxins, bad nutrition, posture, lack of exercise, remaining in a situation that is not harmonious for our soul, or anything that causes us to feel negative emotions), this life force energy cannot be distributed to the areas of the body that relate to that particular chakra, resulting in depression or disease. If we are all vibrating energy, it makes complete sense then, that &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HSEnergyHealing.html&quot;&gt;Energy&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HSVibrationalHealing.html&quot;&gt;Vibrational&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holistichealthguide.com.au/index.html?page=HSSpiritualHealing.html&quot;&gt;Spiritual Healing&lt;/a&gt; along with all other Natural Healing modalities become part of our everyday reality, for maintaining general wellbeing and harmony of the body, mind and spirit. Why wait until your emotional issues manifest into the physical when you can work with a Healer/Natural Therapist today to be rid of any dis-ease of the energy field, before it manifests as illness or disease of the physical body.
