Worried about germs spread via hand contact? Here are some Ayurvedic natural antibacterial and antiseptic ways to keep clean. Using fresh crushed neem leaves and minced or crushed turmeric to form a paste you apply and rub vigorously over the hands and body parts you wish to clean. It will also give your skin a slight light orange glow. Removing the gel from mature aloe vera leaves mixed with lemon juice applied and rubbed on the skin is an antioxidant and natural moisturizer preventing dry skin. You can remove residue for both techniques with a cloth or lightly rinse off with water.
TCM true to its cultural heritage, uses boiled green tea (cooled to room temperature) to wash hands as it will kill bacteria on the skin. Rubbing the area between the thumb and 2nd finger (acupressure) improves circulation and skin defense against pathogens.Hakiima’s (Traditional Medicine Practitioners from Ethiopia, used coffee grounds as an abrasive scrub to remove dirt and neutralize odors.Shamans used smudging, where you pass your hands through burning herbs to cleanse and remove negative energies.
If you find yourself without water or are just tired of using those chemically infused hand gels which just infuse your body with more chemicals look up traditional healing systems to help you obtain a healthier, cleaner you.

Martial Arts an Ancestral Healing System?

YES!!! Martial Arts is an ancestral healing system. According to some scholars, Kung Fu was originally developed as a healing practice more specifically self-help methods developed by Shaolin Monks practicing Shaolin Kung Fu. In fact some practitioners believe that Shaolin Kung Fu is the same as Classical Chinese Medicine (CCM) and its primary use is for health and self development with fighting skills as a secondary result of practicing Kung Fu.
Shaolin TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) is divided into internal and external types. Internal medicine focuses on strengthening muscles and bones. External medicine focuses on relaxing muscles, reducing pain and diminishing the aging process. Shaolin Qigong, usually practiced in conjunction with Shaolin Kung Fu, focuses on defeating illnesses, promotes health by strengthening the body, engaging mental focus while promoting vitality and longevity.
Shaolin Kung Fu practiced with Shaolin Qigong promotes balances yin and yang, promotes a balanced meridian flow, regulates energy and blood which ultimately reduces blood pressure, reduces diabetes, assists with improving vision, smoothing the nervous system and assists with brain challenges including memory.
If you are looking for contact physical activity that offers you an ancestral healing system we recommend you do some research on martial arts. Doing those Kung Fu moves may be more beneficial than you think!

Traditional Healing Practices for Love

The most widely recognized Ancient and Traditional healing practice is known as Ta**ra more specifically Ta***ic s*x based on Ta***ic breathing/touch practices. You also may have heard or read the famous book the K**a Sutra which touches upon Ta**ra. Modern Ta**ra and especially in the “West” focuses upon s*x. The reality is that Ta**ra is based on Hatha Yoga a psycho-physical body focused Yoga practice. Ta**ra is about loving oneself and others. It’s about reaching that physical care of one’s body that helps balance the internal energies – Kundalini - giving strength for unity with one’s mental and intellectual well being. The ultimate in union of one’s own body, mind and intellect. That is true love that leads one to the ability to love others just as deeply and intensely.
While Ta***ic practice is the most well known it is not alone. Reiki, Lama Fera Healing a Tibetan Buddhist method, Chakra Balancing, and Aura Clearing are energetic traditional healing practices for Love. Ancient healing practices for intimate connections still used today are Ho’oponopono – a Hawaiian practice meant to foster deep connection, moon circles and meditation are also used to assist one with making those so desired love connections.
There are many other Cultural and Indigenous practices carried on worldwide. Many of the Native American tribes have ‘love medicine’ a combination of herbs, chants, songs and other rituals used to create, promote, attract, mend and heal individuals and communities. The Rongoa Maori from New Zealand use a combination of plants and massages to align the body and mind to be open to love. Healing circles popular in aboriginal and indigenous communities use safe spaces for loving communication in a supportive collective environment.
So, if you are feeling you need to spice up your love life in however that may be important to you and your loved ones consider looking into ancient, cultural, indigenous and native healing practices to guide you. Consult with your local traditional and cultural healer for more advise.

Climate Change, Tropical Diseases from Home and Travel: By APYArte

As our world continues to undergo climate change we look for ancestral, cultural, native and indigenous health practices that will keep us healthy and strong. It also helps to know these health practices when traveling as we find ourselves limited in carry on bags and allopathic medication that may not be approved for use at our final destination.
So, I’ve compiled some “quick fixes” to help you with some ailments you may be experiencing. When I traveled to Vietnam and India I made sure I had the bark of the Cinchona tree along with the leaves and bark of the mango tree to make a daily tisane to help against malaria. There are increases in intestinal worms and parasites due to close contact with mascots, unclean water and improper hygiene habits. Eating papaya seeds whole or ground if your discomfort is intense has also been a traditional remedy. I tend to use chopped neem leaves in my salad which also helps combat parasites and helps prevent dengue. Neem and dried annatto seeds infused in oil, specifically castor oil, helps with skin conditions. As a young child, I remember my aunt putting annatto infused olive oil on me as sunscreen. It also gives your skin a nice healthy glow, however if you are fair skinned you may end up looking a little orange. Annatto seeds, leaves and lemongrass tisane helps bring down fevers and colds. For a boost of positive energy, have some green tea combined with any of the following herbs: jasmine, chrysanthemum, lotus, or rose so that your Yin and Yang will be better balanced. Fungal infection (like Sporotichosis a series ailment) which can be spread by contaminated plant matter and cats, can be treated along with allopathic medicine with a neem, turmeric coconut oil paste and if the itching is very discomforting fresh aloe vera gel from a mature plant can be soothing. Remember to consult with your alternative health practitioner if you plan on using these remedies for more than a “quick fix.” If trying them and you have any discomfort discontinue use immediatley and contact your preferred medical advisor.
