******************************************** “Natural Forces Within Us Are The True Healers” ~ Hippocrates
1) CALM THE MIND
"All man's miseries derive from not being able to sit quietly in a room alone." -- Blaise Pascal Meditation calms our minds and makes it easier for us to pay attention to the reality around and within us. Meditation breaks through the masks that have built up as our identity. It helps us see through our defenses and connect with unacknowledged and unloved aspects of ourselves. It opens us to higher mind and the voice of intuition.
We can consciously choose meditation as a way to become more aware of who we truly are. If we don’t take the initiative to open to our authentic selves, we can be certain that deep challenge and pain from life experience will push us to awaken.
"Meditation helps me feel the shape, the texture of my inner life. Here, in the quiet, I can begin to taste what Buddhists would call my true nature, what Jews call the still, small voice, what Christians call the holy spirit." -- Wayne Muller "In a world filled with noise, we need to quiet ourselves to hear God’s voice." --Paul Borthwick
2) USING ALTERNATIVE THERAPIES FOR HOLISTIC HEALTH
Holistic health means you are in complete health. When the three elements, mind and body and spirit or vitality, are in balance then you are holistically healthy. When these three elements are out of balance, it is said this is the reason for illness. Holistic treatment focuses not just on the physical symptoms but the emotional and spiritual elements too. Good medicine can be defined when a person is approached as an individual and not just a bunch of body parts. Eastern medicine places great emphasis on spiritual energy. In Chinese medicine this is known as chi and in Indian medicine, Ayervedic, your spiritual energy is referred to as prana. In homoeopathy it is called your vitality or your vital force. When the healing energy channels which flow through the body become blocked the theory is that this is where disease can develop. Therefore the blockage must located, isolated, and eliminated so that complete healing can take place. This is why complementary medicine practitioners look at the whole picture of the person. They ask about your current state of mind, your emotional state, relationships, attitudes and your physical capabilities. While the symptoms are considered the practitioner helps the patient to find the underlying cause of the illness so that the chi or prana can easily flow again. As the mental attitude of the patient is of prime importance, it is essential that the patient also plays a full, responsible part in his or her treatment. Conventional medicine breaks down in the fact that a person’s physical symptoms do not necessarily give a true indication of the cause of an ailment or illness. For example, back pain can be caused by sudden physical strain or even an accident, but it may also be caused by bad posture, which may be the result of financial worries, anger or extreme stress. Unless the cause of distress is correctly identified and then eliminated, there would be no relief from pain. Therefore a non-physical therapy like kinesiology can be said to effectively treat back pain. Most complementary therapies have evolved from ancient traditions of holistic health care. Other natural therapies are the result of innovative and dedicated hard-working doctors and healers from all over the world who have developed their skills and not deviated from their belief in natural healing properties. Hippocrates, who is well-known as the father of modern medicine, once famously said, and truer words were never spoken, Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food. We can be thankful, through modern technology, that we have access to this wonderful and diverse range of natural alternative therapies in the continuous quest for total holistic health.

3) NATURAL REMEDIES FOR HYPERTENSION
Having hypertension is one indication that you are living an unhealthy lifestyle, and it is probably about time that you made some lifestyle changes in order to make sure that you live a much healthier and happier life. Hypertension or high blood pressure is one of the most common health problems that is affecting people worldwide. Although most physicians and doctors are recommending of-the-counter pharmaceutical medicines, those which are being sold in drug stores, as the means to treat hypertension, a lot of researchers and scientists are beginning to lean towards the use of some alternative natural remedies in treating the condition. Diet change as one natural way of treating hypertension There are a lot of different alternative natural remedies that can be used by people who may be experiencing hypertension in lowering their blood pressure, most of which are safe and effective. In order to know which one to use, it is important to remember first that these natural health remedies rely on how people balance their diet, intake of supplements and their lifestyle, which means that a person can improve his high blood pressure by simply focusing on those aspects. Garlic One natural way of treating hypertension is through the consumption of foods that help maintain blood pressure. A person’s diet plays an important role in how a person can maintain his blood pressure. One of the type of food that can help with hypertension is garlic, either raw or cooked, although raw garlic is more potent than the other. Garlic, which contains a compound called adenosine which functions both as a muscle relaxant and as an aid in vaso dilation, helps dilate the muscles of blood vessels, thereby avoiding blood clots and lowering blood pressure. Potassium Being deficient in potassium intake can help increase a person’s risk in worsening their hypertension, which is why eating a high-potassium diet, such as bananas, potatoes, tomatoes, skimmed milk, oranges, watermelon, soya beans, almond and spinach, can help lower their blood pressure. Fruits and vegetables Fruits and vegetables are also known to have an effect on blood pressure due to the fact that they are some of the best sources of vitamin C, and they contain potassium and loads of soluble fibre, all of which have an effect in lowering blood pressure. Omega-3 fatty acids in fish Omega-3 fatty acids, which have the ability to dilate blood vessels, are also able to significantly lower blood pressure, which is why the consumption of fishes which contains omega-3 fatty acids can be a good diet for people who are experiencing hypertension. Calcium Calcium, which has a relationship with blood pressure, also plays a role in maintaining a person’s blood pressure, especially with regards to muscle contractions including the heart’s. Calcium is able to regulate the heart’s muscle contraction, making it easier for a person to manage his body’s blood pressure. Hawthorne Hawthorne berries can also be used to treat hypertension as well. It has the ability to strengthen the pumping ability of the heart, as well as protect the arterial walls. It also helps dilate the blood vessels, thereby lowering a person’s blood pressure. Unfortunately, it may take some time before its effects can be felt by the person using it.
