In #astrology while the sun represents your conscious mind the moon represents your subconscious mind and of course among others things, what kind of nourishment you received during childhood and how you deal with nutrition as a result; that’s the subject we are going to cover here.

Because you become what you eat, you also eat what your body craves in order to create physical and emotional balance.

We all know that when we are hungry we get upset. Some people can go crazy when they are on an empty stomach, because there’s a direct connection between foods and emotions and the moon dictates how you express this connection.

Knowing your moon sign and understanding how to use your strengths and handle your down side can help you effectively shed those extra pounds and optimize your health with the appropriate foods.

 

Moon in Aries

Your element is Fire and Mars is your ruler.

 

Your strengths

You are energetic, you are the initiator. You are creative and unique in many ways. You act very quickly (sometimes too quickly) which surprises others and yourself.

You are active and sporty, but it's not just any sport like golf or some such, we’re talking extreme sports, like car racing, motocross, hand gliding and or highly competitive sports. You like to compete and you are courageous.

 

Your weakness

Your emotions are extreme, and when you are angry…. well you don’t want to go there…

You are impatient and you are hyper. You are very competitive and you can go from 0 to a 100 in your mood swings.

You are prone to tantrums and explosions of anger, which is quickly forgotten but not so quickly by the ones you struck.

 

Your mother

The moon sign represents the safety (or lack thereof) you received from your mother when you were a baby, how you were fed and nourished.

We give love the way we learned to receive love.

Your mother was active, lively, spunky, impatient and a fighter and you weren’t exactly babied. She probably had a lot going on in her life and you learned to be independent from an early age, so for you to compromise and follow rules is a tough task. You like to do things your way.

 

The down side was that she was always angry and irritable with her baby’s needs and that’s exactly how you learned to give love to others… You are impatient with others' emotions and you are angry and irritable with anyone who threatens your freedom, even relating to your eating habits.

 

Your eating habits

You tend to eat in a hurry, and you don’t give yourself time to have a meal in a calm place. You may skip meals and then you eat too much to compensate. You tend to eat ‘whatever’ and ‘whenever.’ You don’t care about eating junk food, or all kinds of wrong foods.

You eat what you want to eat not what you should eat.

When you are angry or you lose control of a situation you tend to compensate with food.

 

Your physical imbalances

You tend to have an unstable and upsetting metabolism, a low immune system and you are prone to inflammations in your body, fevers and headaches. You have ups and downs in your energy level and you could have blood related problems. Your iron level could be low and your digestive system can be upset as well.

You tend to maintain toxin levels in your body and blood.

 

Females born under the Aries moon tend to eat chocolate or sweets to compensate for frustrations and stress which just increase inflammations in the body.

 

How to neutralize the imbalances and optimize your health

You would benefit very much from a blood cleansing diet. If you do well with raw foods, have raw vegetables, fruits and brown rice for one week. Drink lots of water.

 

Your liver absorbs anger and needs to be detoxified once in a while too. Your liver is responsible for processing, converting, distributing and maintaining the body’s fuel supply.

 

You should organize your meals weekly. Shop once a week, clean your vegetables, store them and leave some semi-prepared meals in your refrigerator in order to spend the least amount of time you can in the kitchen when you are hungry.

 

Unless you are a vegetarian, try to eat meat or fish; you need protein to maintain your energy level up. Cayenne pepper is excellent to maintain your immune system levels. Use it in every meal. Stay away from junk food. Sugar is your number 1 enemy because it increases inflammations.

 

If you feel you are too impatient and anxious, use a floral remedy called Rescue to lower your anxiety.

You MUST eat slowly and chew your food up to 20 times, dear Aries Moon.

Don’t argue when you are eating. Listen to calming and soothing music when you have your meals.

Try to organize your life, and take some time to meditate and relax daily.

Try to focus on the NOW.

You need a lot of fuel and energy to keep your energy recharging.

Exercise daily.

 

“When we get impatient because something is taking too long, we should remember that Life waits on us a thousand times more than we wait on Life.”

Lua em Áries –

 

Na astrologia, enquanto o sol representa sua mente consciente, a lua representa sua mente subconsciente e, claro, entre outras coisas, que tipo de alimento emocional você recebeu durante a infância e como você lida com a nutrição, que é o assunto que vamos abordar aqui.

Você se torna aquilo que você come, e você anseia aquilo que seu corpo precisa a fim de criar um equilíbrio físico e emocional.

Todos nós sabemos que quando estamos com fome ficamos mais impacientes. Algumas pessoas podem ficar extremamente nervosas quando estão de estômago vazio, como existe uma conexão direta entre os alimentos e as emoções, a lua dita como você expressa esta conexão.

Conhecer seu signo lunar e entender como usar seus pontos fortes e lidar com seu lado negativo pode ajudá-lo(a) a perder efetivamente os quilos extras e otimizar sua saúde com os alimentos apropriados.

 

Lua em Áries - Seu elemento é o Fogo e Marte é o seu governante.

 

Pontos fortes –

Você é enérgico(a), é o(a) iniciador(a). É criativo(a) e original em muitos aspectos. Age rapidamente (às vezes muito rápido) que chega a surpreender os outros e a si mesmo(a). Você é ativo(a) e esportivo(a), mas não qualquer esporte como o golfe ou algo assim, estamos falando de esportes radicais, como corridas de carros, motocross, asa-delta e/ou esportes altamente competitivos. Você gosta de competir e é corajoso(a).

 

Suas fraquezas –

Suas emoções são extremas e quando está com raiva... bom, acho você não vai querer falar sobre isso...

Você é impaciente e ansioso(a)Você é muito competitivo(a) e pode ir de 0 a 100 em suas mudanças de humor.

Está propenso(a) a acessos e explosões de raiva, que são rapidamente esquecidos, mas não tão rapidamente por aqueles que você atingiu.

 

Sua mãe –

O signo lunar representa a segurança (ou a falta dela) que você recebeu da sua mãe quando era um bebê, como você foi cuidado, alimentado(a) e nutrido(a). Damos amor do jeito que aprendemos a receber amor.

 

Sua mãe era ativa, alegre, corajosa, impaciente e uma lutadora e você não foi uma criança mimado(a). Ela provavelmente tinha muitas coisas acontecendo em sua vida e você aprendeu a ser independente desde cedo, por isso, para você se comprometer e seguir regras é uma tarefa difícil.

Por isso você gosta de fazer as coisas à sua maneira. O lado negativo era que ela estava sempre irritada com as necessidades do seu bebê, e isso é exatamente como você aprendeu a dar amor aos outros... Você é impaciente com as emoções dos outros e fica com raiva e irritado(a) com qualquer um que ameace sua liberdade, o mesmo com relação aos seus hábitos alimentares.

 

Seus hábitos alimentares –

Você tende a comer com pressa, e não se dá tempo para ter uma refeição em um lugar calmo. Você pode pular as refeições e, depois, come muito para compensar.

Você tende a comer 'qualquer coisa' e 'em qualquer lugar'. Você não se importa em comer junk food ou todos os tipos de alimentos errados.

Você come o que quer comer e não o que deve comer. Quando está com raiva ou perde o controle de uma situação, tende a compensar com alimentos.

 

Seus desequilíbrios físicos - Você tende a ter um metabolismo instável, um sistema imunológico baixo e está propenso(a) a inflamações no corpo, febres e dores de cabeça. Você tem altos e baixos em seu nível de energia e pode ter problemas relacionados ao sangue. Seu nível de ferro pode ficar baixo e seu sistema digestivo pode ficar indisposto também. Mulheres nascidas sob a lua em Áries tendem a comer chocolate ou doces para compensar frustrações e estresse, e que só aumentam a inflamações no corpo. Você tende a manter níveis de toxinas em seu corpo e sangue.

 

Como neutralizar os desequilíbrios e otimizar sua saúde -

Você se beneficiaria muito de uma dieta de limpeza do sangue. Você deveria comer alimentos crus, vegetais crus, frutas e arroz integral durante uma semana. E procure beber muita água.

Seu fígado absorve raiva e precisa ser desintoxicado de vez em quando. Seu fígado é responsável pelo processamento, conversão, distribuição e manutenção do fornecimento de combustível ao corpo.

 

Você deve organizar suas refeições semanalmente. Compre uma vez por semana, limpe os legumes, armazene-os e deixe algumas refeições semi-preparadas em sua geladeira, a fim de gastar a menor quantidade de tempo que puder na cozinha quando estiver com fome.

A menos que seja vegetariano(a), tente comer carne ou peixe, você precisa de proteína para manter seu nível de energia.

Pimenta caiena é excelente para manter os níveis do seu sistema imunológico. Use-a em todas as refeições.

 

Fique longe de junk food. O açúcar é seu inimigo número 1 porque aumenta inflamações. Se você achar que está muito impaciente e ansioso(a), use um floral chamado Rescue para diminuir sua ansiedade. Você DEVE comer devagar e mastigar os alimentos até 20 vezes. Não discuta quando estiver comendo. Ouça músicas calmas e relaxantes quando fizer suas refeições. Tente organizar sua vida e reserve um tempo para meditar e relaxar diariamente. Tente concentrar-se no AGORA.

Você precisa de muito combustível e energia para manter sua energia recarregada. Pratique exercícios diariamente.

All three of our Herbal Bath Powders are gentle enough to use as scrub on the body before entering the tub. It will gently exfoliate, while drawing toxins out of the skin. Perhaps the best idea is to enter the tub, get wet, allow a few minutes for your pores to open, then mix up about a tablespoon with a little water to make a paste. Stand up in the tub and massage the paste all over your body. You can continue to stand there for a few minutes if you like or plunge back in the tub and enjoy this relaxing botanical soup. Good Stuff!

 

General Production Introduction: Sensatia Botanicals Bath Powders feature pure, unrefined, organic sea salt from Bali's pristine, still-rugged east coast. Along these quiet white sand beaches the sun drenched sea water is channeled through the myriad of sea grasses into canal systems (made of tree trunks) for evaporation. The sun and wind evaporate the ocean water, leaving the mineral rich brine. This live mixture is briskly stimulated by the salt farmer until the salt crystals form. The sea salt is then gathered by hand with wooden tools and sun-dried a final time. This natural, ancient harvesting method preserves the minerals and vitality of this organic treasure.

 

Bathing in a sea salt bath is recommended for skin diseases, rheumatism, joint diseases, after operations, gynecological problems, and for children prone to infection to strengthen the immune system and detoxify the body. The bath should be close to body temperature and should be 20-30 minutes long. During this time the body reaches the same salt concentration (inside and outside) as that of a pre-natal state. Minerals penetrate the skin in the form of ions stimulating natural cell growth. Bio-energetic weak points will be balanced and the body's own energy flow will be re-activated. The detoxifying effect after a sea salt bath can be compared to a 3 day fast.

 

Further observations show that the best sea salt bath results have been at the changes of the moon. At full moon one can expect optimal assimilation and conversely at new moon one can expect optimal detoxification.

 

We also include baking soda to soothe and neutralize itchy skin, oatmeal to smooth and calm, French superfine clay to draw out toxins, & flowers & spices for their natural botanical benefits.

 

Specific To This Product: Balinese Lulur is an ancient village remedy from the rice farmers of Bali. It has been handed down through generations and is recognized as a traditional medicine. It is believed to help warm the body, relieve aching joints as well as soothe sore muscles. The history is that the hand-crushed spice would be applied on the legs after a day's work of standing in the rice paddies. Today, lulur is becoming very popular in Asian spas, usually offered as an exfoliating, polishing treatment for the body. Locally, continually used by young woman to help aid in the recovery of troubled skin, as well as newborn babies to tauten the skin & fight infection. We use an ancient village recipe of sandalwood, fennel seed, star aniseed, eaglewood, fenugreek, gandepure and salam leaf as the dominant ingredients for the powder.

 

Also included in Sensatia's Balinese Lulur Bath Powder is Sandalwood essential oil. Sandalwood is known for its soft, sweet, woody, balsamic aroma, with excellent tenacity. Its odour effect is calming and anti-depressant. It has been used for centuries as both a perfume and a medicinal agent. The thick brownish yellow liquid is antiseptic, slightly astringent, soothing, rejuvenating and aphrodisiac. It is one of the few oils from the botanical world that actually gets better with age. When used in skin care, it is especially effective for raw, infected, oily, or dry skin, and also has proven to help in the treatment of itchy skin and acne. Sandalwood oil can help balance either dry or oily skin. There is no substitute for sandalwood's gentle, lingering aroma and is why it can be found as a component in almost every designer perfume

Baja Tickler

 

•Flora Information:

oCommon Name: Baja tickler

oNa'vi Name: Txumtsä’wll or “poison-squirting plant”

oTaxonomy: Flaska reclinata or “reclining flask”

oBotanical Description: Large plant with inclined, flask-shaped body held up by aboveground prop roots. Cluster of stiff spiny leaves protect a small opening at the top. Atmospheric toxins are absorbed by the plant and dissolve into liquid that accumulates inside.

oHeight: Six to 7.5 meters

oSpread: Nine to twelve meters

oEcology: The Baja tickler is a new plant growth form described as resembling a hollow tree. It performs an important function by absorbing, condensing, and purifying atmospheric toxins.

oEthnobotany: Extremely dangerous due to periodic explosive squirting of a toxic plume from the top of the plant

•Behind the Scenes:

oFirst Appearance: Avatar

 

The baja tickler (Na’vi name: txumtsä’wll meaning “poison-squirting plant”) resembles no plant growth form on Earth and is unique on Pandora.

 

It has been described as something like a large hollow tree that grows at an incline. A cluster of large spiny leaves adorns the top, and large roots extend out from the underside of the stem, growing into the soil and helping to anchor and prop up the plant. The surface is rough and green due to a dense covering of small mosslike plants that can withstand high temperatures and harsh conditions.

 

The baja tickler is one of the most important plants on Pandora, but is also one of the most dangerous. It plays an important role on the moon by helping to detoxify the atmosphere. Toxic gases (mostly volcanic in origin) are absorbed into the plant body, where they dissolve into a pool of watery liquid that accumulates inside. This primeval ‘soup’ periodically builds up pressure and temperature and is squirted explosively in a toxic plume from the top of the plant. The Na’vi recognize both the value and potential danger of the plant and mainly avoid it.

 

At some point, the baja tickler population of Pandora was negatively impacted, limiting the ability of some plants to hold toxic gases. In Pandora’s future, offworld visitors from Earth are encouraged to join in conservation efforts to protect and regrow the plants by touching them. When the damaged plants are touched enough by multiple people, they release a seed filled mist.

 

Flaska Reclinata

 

Big, weird, and extremely important to the Pandoran environment. Just don’t get too close.

 

At the Pandoran Research Foundation, there is little we love more than sharing information about the flora, fauna and geology of Pandora. Discovery—along with preservation, education and citizen science activation—is at the heart of our mission.

 

So it’s with great pleasure that we share one of the strangest and most crucial botanical components of the Pandoran biosphere: the flaska reclinata.

 

Larger Than Life

 

The first thing you’ll notice about this plant? It’s big—about it can be up to 7-8 meters tall, with up to 12 meters of spread from its base. And why measure from the base, when most large tree spread is calculated by measuring the longest point between branches? Because although this plant may resemble a tree in its overall size, it has no branches, and grows at an incline, buttressed by support roots. Picture a sea cucumber the size of a tree, and you’ll be in the neighborhood; then add long, spiny leaves to the top, and a thick distribution of green symbiotic plants covering the base like lichen. And as sturdy as the trunk looks, it’s also incredibly sensitive: when touched by a passing animal or human, the flaska reclinata will release a cloud of spores. The more it’s touched, the more spores are released. This, scientists believe, is the species’ primary form of self-perpetuation.

 

It is a true alien in our body of botanical knowledge. And this is just the beginning. Now for the inside of this incredible plant—which is mostly hollow. But you definitely wouldn’t want to venture inside.

 

Deadly Efficiency

 

We’re not just being cheeky when we compare the flaska reclinata to Earth’s sea cucumber. Much like a sea cucumber will process sediment, animal droppings, and decomposing plankton on the ocean floor, flaska performs a similar cleaning function with the atmosphere of Pandora. Like a mechanical air filter, it absorbs toxic gases from the atmosphere, right through its bark, and then distills the gas into a liquid that collects in the plant’s hollow interior.

 

Like a factory, the flaska reclinata works at this crucial act of atmospheric purification constantly. So much so that two very important things happen. First, the overall atmosphere of Pandora gets measurably cleaner: scientists have detected much lower airborne toxicity levels in regions with the plants than in those without.

 

The second thing that happens is that, over time, the toxic liquid collecting in the plant’s interior will become unstable, due either to changes in volume, temperature, or pressure. And like an erupting volcano, there’s only one way for the flaska reclinata to release that pressure. Without warning, it will spew a violent, heavy jet of the toxic liquid through the opening at its top, spraying the surrounding landscape—and any unfortunate creatures who happen to be in the way. For humans, getting doused by this toxic stew would be a guaranteed trip to the medic, so our advice is that as thrilling as it may sound to take your chances when exploring the jungles of Pandora, sightseers should always approach a flaska reclinata with an experienced field guide.

  

Hallelujah Mountains

 

•Location Information

oLocation: Pandora

oResidents: Mountain Banshee; Na’vi; Great Leonopteryx (possibly)

•Behind the Scenes:

oFirst Appearance: Avatar

 

The Hallelujah Mountains (Na’vi name: Ayram alusìng meaning “Floating Mountains”) are floating islands that circulate slowly in the magnetic currents like icebergs at sea, scraping against each other and the towering mesa-like mountains of the region. On Pandora, huge outcroppings of unobtanium rip loose from the surface and float in the magnetic vortices due to the Meissner Effect.

 

Physical Description

 

They are overgrown with foliage at the top and straggly beards of vines hang down beneath the mountains like the roots of air-ferns. Their sides are sheer cliffs. Waterfalls, originating on the mesa-like tops, stream down the sides and disperse into spray at the bottoms, like upside-down geysers. The mist then condenses on other floating mountains and flows over the side and disperses, renewing the process. The local peaks and mesas actually project above the level of the craggy undersides of the few floating mountains Jake Sully can see, so it seems obvious that collisions are inevitable.

 

It is also the place that Norm Spellman wants to visit the most on Pandora—his wish is fulfilled when Grace Augustine decides to move her avatar program operation to the region when she realizes Jake is being manipulated by Quaritch. Most human detection instruments are useless amidst the large magnetic fields. The mountains float like clouds among the fixed mountains and swirling cloud structures. When they are in clear sunlight they cast distinct shadows on the land below.

 

In Na’vi Culture

 

The mountains are home to several clans, including Ni’awve and the Tipani. The latter reside in the settlement of Vayaha Village. In 2154 the Omaticaya fled to the mountains, seeking sanctuary at the Tree of Souls. The tree is one of the most sacred sites on Pandora.

 

The Hallelujah Mountains are also where mountain banshees choose to roost. This location atop the 2,600m high Mons Veritatis makes the final challenge on the path to becoming a Na’vi hunter (known as Iknimaya) even more difficult and dangerous, as the route taken to the top of the mountains is treacherous. One wrong move will send a candidate plummeting to his or her death. The danger of wild mountain banshees is also present. The local Tipani also refer to the entire region around their village as Iknimaya.

 

Behind the Scenes

 

The mountains also bear a similar appearance to the Chinese Huang Shan Mountains. James Cameron said that it was the Huang Shan mountains that inspired him to create the Hallelujah Mountains, which would explain the similar appearance. On January 25, 2010 in China, hundreds of locals in ethnic Tujia costumes “officially” renamed the Qiankunzhu mountains after the Hallelujah Mountains as a tribute to Avatar.

  

Sacred Sites

 

The Hallelujah Mountains: Fragile Giants

 

For humans, the Hallelujah Mountains are a stunning vista, a true wonder of the natural world. For the Na’vi, they are so much more.

 

It’s hard to imagine. And trust us: pictures don’t do it justice.

 

Whole mountains lifted from the earth like children’s balloons. Billions of tons of rock floating in the air as though hung there deliberately—some the size of boulders, and some miles across. The Hallelujah Mountains are one of the definitive natural wonders of Pandora, objects of surreal delight for every human lucky enough to see them.

 

As enduring as they are in both fact and imagination, the truth is that the mountains perform a delicate balancing act within the region’s geology and ecology. Most significantly, they represent a cherished, essential part of Na’vi spiritual life. From their role in the iknimaya to the mysteries of Eywa herself, the mountains are a prime sacred site, offering a fascinating glimpse into indigenous belief.

 

But first, an answer to the question you’re all thinking.

 

Yes, They Really Float. But How?

 

Admittedly, it took some digging for RDA geologists to figure it out—literally. The intense magnetic fields covering Pandora—and clustering in this region in particular—were common knowledge during early exploration of the moon, and it was assumed they had something to do with how the mountains stayed in place. But it wasn’t until unobtanium was excavated that a full picture started to come together.

 

What we know is that, thanks to the superconductive properties of the unobtanium deposits within, each mountain is surrounded by its own magnetic field that effectively keeps the mass in place, as though fenced in. And conforming to the rules of a fence, the mountains can actually shift position within their boundaries—their occasional collisions inspired the Na’vi to nickname them “Thundering Mountains.”

 

The Eywa Theory

 

The alternate point of view belongs to the Na’vi. There is nothing unsolved in the Na’vi ontology: everything that exists does so within the system of interconnectedness controlled by Eywa. And by Na’vi accounts, the mountains were lifted as a part of Eywa’s plan. This puts things lightly; really, the Na’vi regard the mountains as one of the greatest symbols of Eywa’s organizing abilities. As we know, it’s extremely unlikely for a mountain to float. Isn’t the fact that these do prove that a higher power made it so?

 

One natural condition that gives the “sacred plan” idea credence is the interplay between life on the ground and life on the mountains, and how, depending how you look at it, the mountains almost need to be floating in order to sustain this interplay. Which brings us to one interplay in particular, which has risen to mythic levels on Pandora: that of the mainland Na’vi with the mountain banshee.

 

A Deadly Rite of Passage

A defining characteristic of the Na’vi is the ability to form neural links with some of the animal life of Pandora. And there is no bond more central to clan life—or that more captures the Na’vi imagination—than the one forged with the mountain banshee.

 

But this bond has to be earned. And that means a dangerous rite of passage called the iknimaya. When a young Omatikaya Na’vi comes of age, he or she may choose to make a long and treacherous solo climb up the vines connecting the floating mountains to the banshee rookeries found in the high peaks. There, the heart of the challenge begins. A banshee never relents to Na’vi bonding advances without resistance, and so the Na’vi only gets one chance; it will end either in free-fall or the banshee leaving its mountain habitat to nest near its rider, who now wears the title Ikran Makto—“Banshee Rider.”

 

Seeing the Mountains All Over Again

 

Obviously, the best way to feel the monumental power of the Hallelujah Mountains (and the other ranges of floating mountains on Pandora, such as the one hovering over the Mo’ara Valley) is to see them in person, in the way that the power of the Grand Canyon or the gorges of the Yangtze River can only be experienced when you’re really there. Like the Grand Canyon, the mountains are picturesque, often the first thing people think of when they think of Pandoran landscape. We love to look at the mountains—but to really see them, and all that they signify, you have to put them in perspective. Imagine if the Grand Canyon, in addition to being beautiful, defined how you entered into adulthood, in effect giving you your identity among friends and family. Imagine if the Grand Canyon represented an emblem of a spiritual force guiding every gesture of every day of your life—that its very existence was a spectacular visual proof of that force and its will. Do this, and you will have the briefest glimpse of what the mountains mean to the Na’vi, deeply and personally, and why we must do what we can to understand, respect, and celebrate them. When you consider the wonders of our two explored galaxies, they are literally irreplaceable.

General Product Introduction: Sensatia Botanicals Bath Powders feature pure, unrefined, organic sea salt from Bali's pristine, still-rugged east coast. Along these quiet white sand beaches the sun drenched sea water is channeled through the myriad of sea grasses into canal systems (made of tree trunks) for evaporation. The sun and wind evaporate the ocean water, leaving the mineral rich brine. This live mixture is briskly stimulated by the salt farmer until the salt crystals form. The sea salt is then gathered by hand with wooden tools and sun-dried a final time. This natural, ancient harvesting method preserves the minerals and vitality of this organic treasure.

 

Bathing in a sea salt bath is recommended for skin diseases, rheumatism, joint diseases, after operations, gynecological problems, and for children prone to infection to strengthen the immune system and detoxify the body. The bath should be close to body temperature and should be 20-30 minutes long. During this time the body reaches the same salt concentration (inside and outside) as that of a pre-natal state. Minerals penetrate the skin in the form of ions stimulating natural cell growth. Bio-energetic weak points will be balanced and the body's own energy flow will be re-activated. The detoxifying effect after a sea salt bath can be compared to a 3 day fast.

 

Further observations show that the best sea salt bath results have been at the changes of the moon. At full moon one can expect optimal assimilation and conversely at new moon one can expect optimal detoxification.

 

We also include baking soda to soothe and neutralize itchy skin, oatmeal to smooth and calm, French superfine clay to draw out toxins, & flowers & spices for their natural botanical benefits.

 

Specific to this Product: Sensatia's Flowers & Herbs Bath Powder also contains a wonderfully relaxing combination of Lavender, Rosemary & Roman Chamomile essential oils. Lavender essential oil is an excellent all-purpose oil for skin care. Its effect is antibacterial, pain relieving, healing for wounds, deodorizing, antiseptic, fungicidal, rejuvenating, and anti-inflammatory. It is also effective for acne and oily hair as well as itchy and cracked skin. Lavenderís fragrance has a calming and relaxing effect.

 

Rosemary essential oil aroma is woodsy, herb-like, and similar to lavender. The astringent and antiseptic properties of rosemary oil stimulate tissue circulation, the metabolism of the skin, and lymph flow. Rosemary oil plays an important role in stimulating cell renewal. It improves dry or mature skin, eases lines and wrinkles, and heals burns and wounds. It can also clear acne, blemishes or dull, dry skin by fighting bacteria and regulating oil secretions. It improves circulation and can reduce the appearance of broken capillaries and varicose veins. Rosemary oil is also helpful in treating cellulite.

 

Roman Chamomile's greatest benefits lay in its calming and relaxing abilities, especially on the nervous and digestive systems, the regulating and easing of the menstrual cycle, & the soothing & healing influence on the skin as well as a potent remedy for inflammatory conditions. This essential oil blend is remarkably relaxing and is considered an aphrodisiac.

 

The many benefits of vegetables result in increased health and prevention of illness. Eating vegetables is one of the best ways to improve your health.

 

Vegetables are high in nutrition and fiber, low in calories. Some vegetables are filling, others light; some are high in protein. A diet high in vegetables helps prevent common chronic diseases and can even reverse them. Vegetables increase antioxidant activity in the body, help detoxify the body, and frequently have unique medicinal value.

The Neem tree is a fast growing evergreen that is native to Pakistan, India, Bangladesh and Myanmar. This amazing tree is claimed to treat forty different diseases. All the parts of the tree is used for treating illness, the leaves, fruit, seeds and even the bark all contain medicinal properties.

 

The use of neem as a medicinal herb dates back over 5,000 years. Today it’s benefits have been proven by scientific research and clinical trials. And, although few of us have access to a neem tree, it can be purchased in the form of oil, powder and pills.

Himalayan salt works in a number of ways:

When the Himalayan Salt Detoxer is warmed, the salt helps release negative ions that are anti-microbial, air purifying, skin purifying and that promote a sense of well being. Purifying the air by binding positive ions helps dust and allergens to settle.

The warmth of the stone causes the feet to sweat, allowing the salt to purify and cleanse. Toxins are pulled out and minerals pulled in, thus decreasing unhealthy acidity. This also helps ease tiredness, aching, and symptoms of stress caused by over-exertion.

As well, the Himalayan Salt Detoxer softens and gently exfoliates the skin as it binds with the salt through the moisture on the hands and feet.

It is the source of many vital nutrients. Himalayan salt can contain as many as 84 natural minerals vital to health that can be absorbed through the skin.

 

The Himalayan Salt Detoxer helps to re-attune the body to the Schumann resonance, sometimes called the heart beat of Mother Earth which helps ease nervousness, insomnia and lack of concentration while helping to clear cancer causing free radicals from the body.

 

How to Use the Himalayan Crystal Salt Detoxer

The Himalayan Salt Detoxer is used for foot detoxification, localized skin care treatments, manicures and pedicures, among many uses. For instance, some people use it:

For manicures or pedicures. Rest one hand or foot on the Himalayan Salt Detoxer while attending to the other hand or foot.

 

To re-invigorate tired feet and legs after work or exercise.

 

To lessen the pain of carpal tunnel or arthritic conditions.

 

How Long the Himalayan Salt Detoxer Should Be Used for Each Session?

Initially we recommend 10 to 20 minute sessions. When this is comfortable, an individual may progress to 30 minutes to a maximum of 60 minutes. It can be used for one long session or for a few shorter sessions during the day. Please discontinue use if there is any discomfort.

How Do I Turn It On and Adjust the Temperature?

Heat is controlled by using the UL-approved dimmer switch. Before using the Himalayan Salt Detoxer turn the dial on the dimmer switch to the maximum level for 10-20 minutes. Then, once the salt is a comfortable temperature, turn the switch back to the mid-point. Periodic temperature adjustment of the unit, by rotating the dimmer control switch up or down, may be needed. This will maintain the preferred level of warmth. Salt is a temperature sink (which means it holds heat very well), but temperature changes are not immediate so please take care, especially if you feel the dome is too hot. Even when removed from the base it will feel warm for a number of minutes.

Are There Any Precautions Before I Begin to Use the Himalayan Salt Detoxer?

We firmly believe in the benefits of the Himalayan Salt Detoxer, but we make no medical claims to cure, treat or prevent any kind of disease. Before using the Himalayan Salt Detoxer please seek appropriate medical advice if you have symptoms that are of concern. Such concerns may include:

Pregnancy

Already being under medical supervision

Currently taking medication for a pre-existing condition

Are diabetic or have diminished sensation in your feet

 

IMPORTANT NOTE: Please do not use a very wet cloth as this will dissolve the salt gradually or cause it to crack.

What Should I Do If the Salt Surface Starts to Look “Crusty”?

This is usually due to the surface getting damp either from the moisture content in the air, from a hand or foot that has touched the surface or from water droplets that have gone undetected. To prevent “crusting”, the Himalayan Salt Detoxer should be wrapped in a plastic bag then sealed OR kept lit on low when not in use. To repair moisture damage, wipe off the crumbly salt and put the Detoxer on high for 30 minutes to make sure it is thoroughly dry.

For your safety:

Use only for hands or feet.

 

Never stand, sit on or apply full body weight to the Himalayan Salt Detoxer equipment.

 

Do not use if the dome is cracked or split.

Discontinue use and seek medical attention if your skin swells or becomes inflamed.

Keep away from water and places where the salt surface may come into contact with water.

Never use when the cord or plug is damaged.

If you are pregnant, under medical supervision, or taking medication, consult your physician before using the Himalayan Salt Detoxer . Not recommended for use by diabetics.

I have been rigorously without a break shooting Chhath Puja on Juhu Beach since many years , this is one cultural feast connecting my thread of Hope and Hindutva a message of Peace to the migrants from Bihar in Mumbai..

 

The colors of Bihar in hope harmony are visible as a unilateral essence of mutual coexistence of the Biharis in Mumbai the state of Maharashtra that they have unduly adopted as home..and work effeciently and progressively for its development and growth contributing to its prsperity.

 

About Chhath Puja From Wikipedia

 

Chhath (Hindi: छठ, also called Dala Chhath) is an ancient Hindu festival dedicated to Surya, the Hindu Sun God, Surya, also known as Surya Shashti.[1] The Chhath Puja is performed in order to thank Surya for sustaining life on earth and to request the granting of certain wishes. The Sun, considered the god of energy and of the life-force, is worshiped during the Chhath fesival to promote well-being, prosperity and progress. In Hindu mythology, Sun worship is believed to help cure a variety of diseases, including leprosy, and helps ensure the longevity and prosperity of family members, friends, and elders.

 

The rituals of the festival are rigorous and are observed over a period of four days. They include holy bathing, fasting and abstaining from drinking water (Vratta), standing in water for long periods of time, and offering prashad (prayer offerings) and aragh to the setting and rising sun.

 

Although it is observed most elaborately in Bihar, Jharkhand and the Terai regions of Nepal in modern times, and is more prevalent in areas where migrants from those areas have a presence, it is celebrated in all regions and major urban centers in India. The festival is celebrated in the regions including but not exclusive to the northeast region of India, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Chandigarh, Gujarat,[2] Delhi,[3] Mumbai[4] and Mauritius.[5]

  

Chhath puja is performed on Kartik Shukala Shashti, which is the sixth day of the month of Kartik in the Hindu Calendar. This falls typically in the month of October or November in the Gregorian Calendar.

 

It is also celebrated in the summer (March–April), on Chaitra Shashti, some days after Holi; this event is called Chaiti Chhath.[6] The former is more popular because winter is the usual festive season in North India, and Chhath, being an arduous observance, requiring the worshipers to fast without water for around 36 hours continuously, is easier to undertake in the Indian winters.

  

It is believed that the ritual of Chhath puja may even predate the ancient Vedas texts, as the Rigveda contains hymns worshiping the Sun god and describes similar rituals. The rituals also find reference in the Sanskrit epic poem Mahābhārata in which Draupadi is depicted as observing similar rites.

 

In the poem, Draupadi and the Pandavas, rulers of Hastinapur (modern Delhi), performed the Chhath ritual on the advice of noble sage Dhaumya. Through her worship of the Sun God, Draupadi was not only able to solve her immediate problems, but also helped the Pandavas later regain their lost kingdom.

 

It is also believed that Chhath was started by Karna, the son of Surya Putra Karna who ruled over the Anga Desh (present day Bhagalpur district of Bihar) during the Mahabharat Age. He was a great warrior and fought against the Pandavas in the Kurukshetra War.

 

Its yogic/scientific history dates back to the Vedic times. The rishis of yore used this method to remain without any external intake of food as they were able to obtain energy directly from the sun's rays. This was done through the Chhath method.[8]

 

[edit] Rituals and traditions

Chhath is a ritual bathing festival that follows a period of abstinence and ritual segregation of the worshiper from the main household for four days. During this period, the worshiper observes ritual purity, and sleeps on the floor on a single blanket.

 

This is the only holy festival which has no involvement of any pandit (priest). The devotees offer their prayers to the setting sun and then the rising sun in celebrating its glory as the cycle of birth starts with death. It is seen as the most glorious form of Sun worship.

 

Bihar has a number of Sun temples, flanked by a surajkund or sacred pool of the Sun, forming a popular venue for the celebration of this festival.

 

The main worshipers, called Parvaitin (from Sanskrit parv, meaning 'occasion' or 'festival'), are usually women. However, a large number of men also observe this festival. The parvaitin pray for the well-being of their family, for prosperity and for offspring. Once a family starts performing Chhatt Puja, it is their duty to perform it every year and to pass it on to the following generations. The festival is skipped only if there happens to be a death in the family that year.

 

The prasad offerings include sweets and fruit offered in small bamboo winnows. The food is strictly vegetarian and it is cooked without salt, onions or garlic. Emphasis is put on maintaining the purity of the food.

 

[edit] The four days Of Chhath Puja

Day 1:

Nahakha (literally, bathe and eat):

On the first day of Chhath Puja, the devotees take a dip, preferably in the holy river Ganges, and carry home the holy water of the river Ganges to prepare the offerings. The house and surroundings are scrupulously cleaned. The parvaitin allows themselves only one meal on this day.

 

Day 2: Kharna (the day before Chhath):

On Panchami, the day before Chhath, the parvaitins observe a fast for the whole day, which ends in the evening a little after sunset. Just after the worship of earth, the offerings of Rasiao-kheer (rice delicacy), puris (deep-fried puffs of wheat flour) and bananas, are distributed among family and friends. From this day onwards, for the next 36 hours, the parvaitin goes on a fast without water.

 

Day 3: Chhath Sanjhiya Arghya (evening offerings):

The day is spent preparing the prasad (offerings) at home. On the eve of this day, the entire household accompanies the parvaitins to a riverbank, pond or a common large water body to make the offerings (Aragh) to the setting sun. It is during this phase of Chhath Puja that the devotees offer prayers to the setting sun.

 

The occasion is almost a carnival. Besides the parvaitin, there are friends and family, and numerous participants and onlookers, all willing to help and receive the blessings of the worshipper. Ritual rendition of regional folk songs, carried on through oral transmission from mothers and mothers-in-law to daughters and daughters-in-law, are sung on this occasion.

 

The folk songs sung on the evening of Chhath reflect the culture, social structure, mythology and history of Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. Nowadays, modern Chhath songs, largely Bollywood film remixes, have caught on, but the old tradition still goes strong with a great degree of sanctity. The three main linguistic regions of Bihar (the Maithili, the Magadhi, and the Bhojpuri), and all the various dialects associated with these, have different folk songs; but have an underlying unity in their dedicated to Chhath. The minor nuances of the Chhath rituals, such as in the Kharna ritual, vary from region to region and across families, but still there is a fundamental similarity.

 

Kosi: On the night of day three, a colorful event of Kosi is held. Here, lighted earthen lamps are kept under a canopy of five sugarcane sticks. The five sticks signify the human body made of Panchatattva (the five great elements - earth, water, fire, air and ether). This is a symbolic ritual in Chhath Puja, performed especially in those families where marriage or childbirth has taken place recently. The lighted lamps signify the solar energy sustaining the human being. People perform this ritual at home, during late evening on day three after making the offering to the setting sun. After that, it is done at the banks of the river on day four before making the offerings to the rising sun.

 

Day 4: Parna (the day after Chhath)

Bihaniya Aragh (next morning offerings): On the final day of Chhath Puja, the devotees, along with family and friends, go to the riverbank before sunrise, in order to make the offerings (Aragh) to the rising sun. The festival ends with the breaking of the fast by the parvaitin and friends visiting the houses of the devotees to receive the prashad. Witnessing Chhath being celebrated at the crack of the dawn on a river bank is a beautiful, elating spiritual experience connecting the modern Indian to his ancient cultural roots.

 

[edit] Yogic Viewpoint

There is also a yogic process of Chhath that may have been associated with the religious observance of Chhath puja, but the current religious observers of Chhath puja do not refer to the yogic process and may not even be aware of it.

 

[edit] The Yogic Philosophy of Chhath

According to yogic philosophy, the physical bodies of all the living organisms are highly sophisticated energy conducting channels. The solar bio-electricity starts flowing in the human body when it is exposed to solar radiations of specific wavelengths. Under particular physical and mental conditions, the absorption and conduction of this solar-bio-electricity increases. The processes and the rituals of the Chhath puja aim at preparing the body and the mind of the Vratti (devotee) for the process of cosmic solar energy infusion.[citation needed]

 

The scientific process similar to Chhath was used by the Rishis of yore for carrying out their austerities without any intake of solid or liquid diet. Using a process similar to the Chhath puja, they were able to absorb the energy needed for sustenance directly from the sun, instead of taking it indirectly through food and water.

 

The retina is a kind of photoelectric material, which emits subtle energy when exposed to light. Hence, very subtle electric energy starts flowing from the retina. This energy (photo-bio-electricity) is transmitted from the retina to the pineal gland by the optic nerves connecting the retina to the pineal gland, leading to its activation. The pineal gland is in close proximity with the pituitary and hypothalamus glands (together, three glands are called Triveni) due to which, the energy generated in this process starts impacting these glands. Consequently, the pranic activity becomes uniform, giving the Vratti good health and a calm mind.

 

[edit] Stages of Chhath (Conscious Photoenergization Process)

According to Yoga philosophy, the process of Chhath is divided into six stages of the Conscious Cosmic Solar Energy Infusion Technique (Conscious Photoenergization Process).[9]

 

Stage 1: Fasting and the discipline of cleanliness leads to detoxification of the body and mind. This stage prepares the body and mind of the Vratti (devotee) to receive the cosmic solar energy.

 

Stage 2: Standing in a water body with half the body (navel deep) in the water minimizes the leak of energy and helps the prana (psychic energy) to move up the sushumna (psychic channel in the spine).

 

Stage 3: Cosmic Solar Energy enters the Vratti’s pineal, pituitary and hypothalamus glands (Triveni complex) through the retina and optic nerves.

 

Stage 4: Activation of Triveni tri-glandular complex (pineal, pituitary and hypothalamus).

 

Stage 5: A kind of polarization of happens in the spine, which results in the Vratti’s gross and subtle bodies getting transformed into a cosmic powerhouse. This can also lead to the awakening of the latent psychic energy popularly known as the Kundalini Shakti.

 

Stage 6: The body of the Vratti (devotee) becomes a channel which conducts, recycles and transmits the energy into the entire universe.

 

[edit] Benefits of Chhath process

The Chhath process results in detoxification

 

The Chhath process stresses mental discipline. The discipline of mental purity is a result of this work. By employing a number of rituals, the vrattis focus on maintaining the cleanliness of the offerings and environment. Cleanliness is the most dominant thought that prevails in the minds of the devotees during Chhath.ÀÀÀÀÀÀ

 

This has a great detoxification effect on the body and the mind as mental moods can result in biochemical changes. Now comes the physical detoxification. The fasting paves the way for detoxification at a material level.

 

Detoxification helps in regularizing the flow of prana and makes the person more energetic. The natural immune system of the body spends much of its energy in fighting the toxins present in the body. By using the detoxification methods such as pranayam, meditation, yoga and Chhath practices, the amount of toxins present in the body can be reduced to a great extent. Thus, with reduction in the amount of toxins, the expenditure of energy also reduces and you feel more energetic. It improves the appearance of the skin. The eyesight can improve and the ageing process of the body slows down.

 

[edit] Benefits of Chhath Puja

Photo-electro-chemical effect: physical benefits

 

1.The Chhath practice improves the immunity of the Vratti’s body.

2.Antiseptic effect: Safe radiation of sunlight can help cure fungal and bacterial infections of the skin.

3.Raktavardhak (increase in fighting power of blood): As a consequence of the practice of Chhath, the energy infused in the blood stream improves the performance of white blood cells.

4.The solar energy has a great influence on the glands, which results in balanced secretion of hormones.

5.Energy requirements are met by the solar energy directly. This will further detoxify the body.

Photo-electro-psychic effects: mental benefits

 

1.A state of creative calmness will prevails in the mind.

2.To a great extent, all negative responses have their origin in the disturbed flow of prana. With the pranic flow regularized, the duration and frequency of occurrences of anger, jealousy, and other negative emotions will be reduced.

3.With patient and sincere practice, the psychic powers like intuition, healing, and telepathy awaken. This depends on the concentration with which the practice is undertaken.

[edit] Daily sun meditation (Chhath process)

In the fast lifestyle of the present times, it may not be possible to follow the Chhath process very often. The detoxification can be undertaken through pranayam, yoga, meditation and Conscious Photoenergization Process known as Chhath Dhyan Sadhana (CDS).

 

Chhath Dhyan Sadhana (CDS): Conscious Photoenergization Process

 

Assume a comfortable position (standing or sitting) with back and spine straight. With eyes closed, face the Sun. Inhale completely, as slowly as possible. Do not strain in making the breathing slow. Maintain your comfort level. As you breath in, visualize (feelingly experience) the cosmic solar energy entering through your eyes and moving to the pineal gland through optic nerves and charging the pineal–pituitary–hypothalamus complex. Now, as you exhale, visualize the cosmic solar energy flowing down the pineal gland and spreading throughout your body with a revitalizing effect.

 

Thus, the process starts with inhalation and ends in exhalation. This constitutes one round. It is suggested to start with five rounds (two minutes), and increase if time permits. On completion of the practice, thank the Sun for bestowing upon you the life giving solar energy. Thereafter, sit quietly for a minute, observing the good things in the environment around.

 

CDS should be practiced within one-hour window after sunrise or within one-hour window before sunset. Any person of any age can practice CDS. If you wish to practice CDS at any time other than sunrise or sunset, do not practice it in front of Sun. You can however, practice CDS in a room. Even a bed-ridden person can try and consciously draw in the solar energy while lying on the bed. With regular practice, he/she will notice an improvement in physical and mental health. For those who are not comfortable facing the sun, they can practice the technique in any room having proper ventilation. If you have time, you can also practice twice a day. Do not hurry in increasing the number of rounds, as there is no shortcut to success in this method. The nervous system of the body takes its own time in adapting and to be able to receive the energy.

 

Significance of emphasis on sunrise and Sunset periods

 

Only sunrise and sunset are the periods during which the majority of humans can safely obtain the solar energy directly from the Sun. However, there may be some exceptions. That is why, in Chhath puja, there is a tradition of offering Arghya to the Sun in late evening and in early morning. During these phases (one hour window after sunrise and before sunset), the ultraviolet radiation levels remain in safe limits.

Yerba mate is an herbal tea claimed to have the ability to stimulate the mind and many medicinal and healthful properties. The low caffeine levels make this herbal tea a fantastic substitute for coffee. "Ilex Paraguayans" is a medium sized tree cultivated in Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay and Brazil. Also during the time the Ottoman Empire ruled Syria, Lebanon and Egypt, many Arabs emigrated to Argentina, and there they learned to drink yerba mate.

 

Syria is also the biggest importer of yerba mate in the world, importing 15,000 tons a year. It is mostly the Druze community in Syria and Lebanon who maintain the culture and practice of mate. This evergreen member of the Holly family was introduced in South America by the Guarani Indians of these regions, who called it " the drink of the Gods" It is the leaves that are desirable. The need to be "deactivated" to release the natural enzymes. This process can be done by holding cut branches over open fire. The foliage are dried, toasted and crushed to produce a fine, flaky leaf tea.

 

The mate is a drink that tastes like "Tea" and it is usually and traditionally a social drink. Groups of friends and/or family have "mate" anytime during the day, alone or with somebody else, and the particularity of this drink is everyone drinks from the same mate. To drink the "mate" we need a "bombilla", which is a small metal straw with a grid rounded at the end, that it used as a filter. The "bombillas" also come in different sizes, materials and designs, being the most common of metal one and the most exclusive is the one made of silver. The other component is the water; hot water that is considered to "ideal" at a few degrees before boiling. If the water boils, the "mate" it not good, because the "yerba" gets inconsistent.

 

The mate is a container that holds an infusion that Argentines call a mate. Both the container and the drink are called the same name, so whenever you ask for a mate, you will can either receive the mate recipient or the recipient with the drink. The word "mate" comes from the Quechuan word "mati", which means "gourd" and is traditionally drank in Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay and in the south of Brazil.

 

There are different types of mates; the traditional one is made from the "calabaza" (gourd) but there are also made with other materials like wood with a smooth exterior; some with engravings or carved with drawings and landscapes and others made of silver.

 

Medicinal tonic properties

The benefits of yerba are many: it's lower in actual "caffeine" [sometimes called "theine," or "mateine"--a compound in the molecular class of "xanthines"] than regular tea and its unique composition is the best way to produce stimulation without many of the health risks or side-effects people are accustomed to with coffee or espresso.. To drink yerba máte) is to enjoy the health benefit of a tea with vitamins and antioxidants.

 

It can:

 

Detoxifies the blood

Improves digestion

Boost the immune system

Induces mental clarity

Increases endurance

Antioxidant

Diuretic

 

Preparation and Serving of the Mate

 

Warm up the water and take away from the heat a few minutes before it starts boiling.

Fill 3/4 of the mate with "yerba".Cover the top with your hand, turn it upside down and tap the base softly - so that the dust of the yerba (herb) stays in the surface.

Hold the mate in 45 degree angle and introduce the bombilla (metal straw) all the way down.If you want to have a sweet mate, pour some sugar in.

Pour the hot water softly until it reaches the edge of the mate. After a few seconds, the water will be absorbed by the herb and will go down.

Wait a few seconds and pour some more water until the top of the mateAfter these simple steps, the mate is ready. Once the water is drank, serve it again, and so on. The mate is deemed "washed" when it starts losing its taste, so just throw away the yerba and put some more in.

 

The mate is a home loving tradition, it is not served or sold as a drink in public places. It is not very common to be served in restaurants or bars. If you have the opportunity to go to a family house and they offer you a mate, do not say no, at least try one as a courtesy.

 

Yerba Mate Sharing Rules

 

Yes there are some rules as mentioned in noborders.net, but for us mate drinkers, we are not told of them, but we just learn them from our elders

 

Don't ask for sugar

Many people are accustomed to drinking sugar in their coffee and tea, perfectly fine to ask for it. Many people also drink sugar in their Mate. But when you are asked to join a Mate fellowship, you could make the worst sacrilege ever imagined by asking for sugar.

Don't say that Mate is unhygienic

You may feel that it is unhygienic to put your mouth where everybody puts theirs. Of course it is, but that is expressly why sharing a Mate is such an intimate experience. The offer to share something so intimate is the highest honor of all. If you don't want to be that close to someone, don't share a Mate with them. Otherwise, don't say anything about the hygiene of the experience

Don't say the Mate is too hot

If everyone else is happy with the temperature it would be considered rude to ask them to cool it down, or to wait until it cools naturally.

Don't leave the Mate half-way

Despite the great similarity between Mate and the peace pipe, there are some basic differences. While everyone just takes one puff in the calumet and passes it on, don't ever do that with Mate. You must sip all the water until hearing the noise signaling the gourd is empty. See the next rule.

 

Don't feel ashamed of the noise at the end

If, after sipping, you hear the gourd "snoring," don't feel ashamed. It is all right, no one will look upon you as being rude. It's what you are suppose to do.

Don't stir the gourd

The gourd may get clogged from time to time, due to itself, to the Yerba or to who prepared the Mate. If that happens, you have all the right to complain. But, please, don't stir the gourd. Talk to who offered you the Mate or passed the gourd to you. But don't stir the gourd, don't stir the gourd and, above all, don't stir the gourd.

Don't change the order

A Mate round works like a clock. The gourd passes from hand to hand, always in the same order. If you are being served, hand it back to the server. If people are pouring their own water, which happens in some places, always pass it the next person without changing the order.

Don't slow down the rhythm

Drinking Mate alone is an excellent way to meditate on the things in your life. You drink leisurely, thinking about whatever drifts your way. To have a Mate in a circle of people is quite different. The essence is not meditation but rather integration. In a Mate round, you talk, discuss, laugh, swear; you are part of a community; it is a fraternization. Don't forget to sip; the other people are waiting.

Don't condemn the server for being the first to drink

If you say the server is rude because he or she prepares the Mate and is the first to drink, well, you are the rude one. The strongest sip is the first one, and whoever takes it is seen as doing the group a favour

I guarentee that this is among the purest and best you will ever find no matter what the price is! We back this claim with a no questions asked money back guarentee!!

 

Rhassoul Clay has been used for over 1400 years by women who loved their skin. From Morocco, comes this remarkable, reddish brown cosmetic clay.Rhassoul Clay is high in trace minerals such as potassium sodium, iron, magnesium and most importantly silica. Its extraordinary power of absorption makes it more effective than other clays for cleansing, de-toxification, and general skin treatment.

 

Moor Mud or Balneo-Peat is an organic substance, a product of natural decomposition of multitudes of plants under special conditions. It is unlike any other mud in the beauty or spa industry. It contains almost no clay and contains the organic remains of flowers, plants, herbs and grasses. Over a period of thousands of years these residues turn into a paste that easily dissolves in the water and has unusual concentration of bio-minerals, trace elements, vitamins, amino acids, plant hormones and fatty acids in a molecular form that is easy for the human skin to absorb.

 

Its mysterious ability to heal, nourish and detoxify has been observed by people for millennia and used scientifically in European Spas for well over a century. It is used not only to beautify, but also to heal. It has anti-aging, natural antibiotics, biochemical and anti-inflammatory actions.

Gotu Kola strengthens the skin, increases the concentration of antioxidants in wounds, and restores inflamed tissues by increasing blood supply to connective tissue. Gotu Kola enhances the synthesis of collagen resulting in the thickening of the skin which we know is imperative to combat wrinkles created from thinning skin.

 

Comfrey has an ancient reputation as a wound-healer. Comfrey abounds in the healing agents mucilage and allantoin, a cell proliferant that speeds up the natural replacement of body cells.

 

Chamomile reduces inflammation, irritation, skin redness and it promotes granulation and skin cell regeneration.

  

As a personal anecdote I will tell you another great effect of this mask. I live in Southern Indiana on the banks of the Ohio River. I, like many others in this area suffer from allergies and sinusitis frequently. One day while having a severe sinus headache got to thinking about the supposed pain relieving ability of Moor Mud. I applied the mask heavily around the sinus areas above and below the eyes and then put a warm wet towel across my face. In less than 10 minutes my pain was gone. Was it the Moor Mud or the warm towel? I don’t know, but if I have the time I use this to relieve sinus headaches instead of taking medication. You might try it.

  

Directions: Apply a thin layer of the mineral rich, Dead Sea mud mask to the facial area, avoiding contact with the eyes. Leave on for 10 to 15 minutes. After the mask is completely dry, rinse thoroughly with warm water in gentle circles. Pat dry. We recommend applying a light moisturizer. Use the facial mud once per week for a brighter, fresher, and smoother complextion.

We have a nice crop of wild burdock, that provides us with wonderful, medicinal roots.

 

MEDICINAL QUALITIES OF BURDOCK

 

Burdock Root contains a number of medicinal properties that have been used for hundreds of years. Traditionally herbalists all over the world use Burdock Root as a blood purifier. It is the root of the Burdock plant that is harvested for folk medicinal use. The roots are about an inch wide but up to three feet long and are best dug in July. They should be lifted with a beet-lifter or a deep-running plough, due to the long tap root. As a rule they are 12 inches or more in length and about 1 inch thick; sometimes, however, they extend 2 to 3 feet, making it necessary to dig by hand. They are fleshy, wrinkled, crowned with a tuft of whitish, soft, hairy leaf-stalks, grey-brown externally, whitish internally, with a somewhat thick bark, about a quarter of the diameter of the root, and soft wood tissues, with a radiate structure.

 

Burdock has been used by herbalists worldwide to treat a variety skin diseases such as abscesses, acne, carbuncles, psoriasis and eczema. Burdock can be either taken alone or combined with other remedies, such as Yellow Dock and Sarsaparilla. The beneficial effects of this herb includes increasing circulation to the skin, helping to detoxify the epidermal tissues. Burdock Root has been reported to destroy bacteria and fungus cultures. It is a popular detoxifying agent that produces a diuretic effect on the body which aids the filtering of impurities from the bloodstream. By promoting perspiration, Burdock Root eliminates toxins through the skin. By producing a detoxifying effect, Burdock Root aids blood circulation and produces a variety of positive side effects. As before mentioned, it contains inulin, a carbohydrate that strengthens the liver. The high concentration of inulin and mucilage aids in the soothing effects on the gastrointestinal tract. The high concentration of inulin is helpful for individuals that are afflicted with diabetes and hypoglycemia as it provides helpful sugar that does not provoke rapid insulin production. Inulin, which is very high in Burdock, is a resinoid or camphor-like hydrocarbon that is aromatic, stimulant, expectorant, tonic, stomachic, and antiseptic.

 

Burdock Root contains polyacetylenes that gives the herb its antibacterial and antifungal properties. It is used as a mild laxative that aids in the elimination of uric acid or gout. It is classified as an alterative, diuretic and diaphoretic. It helps the kidneys to filter out impurities from the blood very quickly. It clears congestion in respiratory, lymphatic, urinary and circulatory systems. Burdock releases water retention, stimulates digestion, aids kidney, liver and gallbladder function. It also functions as an aperient, depurative, and antiscorbutic.

 

Decoctions of Burdock have also been historically used for soothing the kidneys, relieving the lymphatic system, rheumatism, gout, GI tract disorders, stomach ailments, constipation, catarrh, fever, infection, fluid retention and skin problems. An article in Chemotherapy identified the chemical arctigenin contained in Burdock as an “inhibitor of experimental tumor growth.”

 

Both European and Chinese herbalists have long considered burdock root's "lightly warming, moistening effect an excellent tonic for the lungs and liver. It reportedly stimulates toxic waste through the skin and urine, improving digestion and is good for arthritis and rheumatism.

 

Burdock is an aid to circulation because of its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity.

 

A recent study showed that Burdock blocked dangerous chemicals from causing damage to cells, suggesting to the possibility that burdock may help decrease the risk of developing cancer from toxic chemicals.

 

Some other miscellaneous disorders Burdock Root is good for are:

Helpful in cellular regeneration

Useful in cleansing and treatment of Crohn's disease and diverticulitis

Aids in alleviating distress related to Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Useful in the treatment of recovery from Hepatitis

Burdock stimulates the appetite, so modern experts recommend it for anorexia nervosa

 

Burdock is useful for most of the same needs as Yellow Dock (rumex crispus) and is effective in treating gout and high cholesterol.

 

Based on many studies with animals exposed to toxic chemicals, the tea very effectively protects the body against cellular damage and abnormal growths. The tea also has powerful anti-inflammatory activity based on studies and reduces liver damage from toxic chemicals. As a mildly bitter-tasting herb, it increases saliva and bile secretion, which aids digestion and cleanses the liver. Burdock root tea can also be applied externally for treating skin conditions.

The impact of coal fly ash (CFA) exposure to the ecosystem and human health has not gone unnoticed. Is quiet very obvious that CFA disposal will continue unabated and will continue to constitute a menace to the ecosystem as the demands for energy soured-up. This is expected as the utilization and exploration of dormant coal deposits will take a comeback into the energy master-plan of most developing economies. As a fallout of these demands, the health risk associated with CFA, particularly as regards the Nigerian bituminous CFA were reported in this study. Albino rats were separately administered coal fly ash sample burned at a temperatures of 500°C and 900°C. The assumption is to get more insight whether coal burning temperature participated in defining the underlying susceptibility of CFA toxicity. The in vivo study shows the CFA at both ashing temperature exerted similar effect on both the biochemical indices and the histological section of the rats, suggesting the effects to be independent of the temperature at which samples were burned. Even though, the CFA were observed to trigger toxic induced effects, the chapter picture the CFA generated from coal combustion processes as an integral components of a productive cycles than a menace. A resources for other applications and a sink that may act to absorb or detoxify waste. This chapter attempt to establish an ecological symbiosis between the CFA generated as a waste to environmental sustainability by closing material cycle in concert with the ecosystem based on the concept of industrial ecology. The expectations are that the impact of the chapter will influences changing post-processing materials from coal combustion processes from waste to resources. The Nigerian bituminous CFA sample collected at two different ashing temperatures of 500°C and 900°C produced similar biochemical and histological effects. The analyses showed that the effects were not dose and ashing temperatures dependent. Attributed, more probably to the combustion efficiency rather than coal type and fly ash sampling temperature. And more probably to the ability of both the organic and inorganic constituents of the CFA to initiate and induce the formation of free radicals, particularly activated reactive oxygen species, by Fenton-like reaction. To ameliorate the environmental-related concerns of CFA on the ecosystem, the concept of industrial ecology were discussed in line with natural concept of ecology. Placing emphasis on CFA utilization in soil amendment and reclamations, in agriculture, as adsorbents materials, in catalysis, in ceramics and in concretes. The assumption is that changing post-processing materials from waste to resources will reduce economic cost and environmental impact of effluent like CFA.

REPRODUCTION: Blue and Gold Macaws are monogamous mating for life. Females lay 2 to 3 eggs and incubate them for 24 to 28 days, after which the young hatch blind and featherless. Fledglings become independent in 3 months.

 

LONGEVITY: Up to 50 years while their breeding age ranges from 30 to 35 years.

 

PREDATORS: A. ararauna are attacked while in flight by harpy eagles (Harpia harpyja), hawk eagles (Nisaetus cirrhatus) and orange-breasted falcons (Falco deiroleucus).

 

CONSERVATION: IUCN: Least Concern (LC) due to their large geographic range.

 

REMARKS: Their beaks are extremely powerful with a bite force up to 200 lbs per square inch. Beaks are used as ‘third foot’. Feet are “Zygodactyl” (2 toes oriented forward, 2 toes oriented backward) are used for climbing, holding food.

 

These birds are in the parrot family, and are referred to as Psittacines. They are known for their extraordinary coloration, intelligence, social behavior and being very vocal

love it AND it's good for you! Some info. I found on coconut water:

 

It's rich in organic compounds with growth properties that can improve health, including vitamins that help stop fatigue, chloride, cytokinins, and lauric acid. Because it's free of chemicals it's safe to give to children and babies [the lauric acid found in coconut water is the same as human breast milk].

 

Regular consumption of coconut water can improve immunity, increase metabolism, alter HDL, and detoxify the body. Consistently drinking coconut water helps regulate intestinal function which is known to provide health benefits including a clearer complexion. The monolaurin in coconut water which acts as an antiviral monoglyceride has the ability to kill an assortment of viruses and bacteria in the body.

 

Many third world countries use it as a blood plasma alternative method known as the Coconut IV. Wounded soldiers in wars have been revived using coconut water. The nutrients and hydration simulates the plasma which contributes to 55% of human blood. As an isotonic and natural electrolyte beverage coconut water is a great alternative to sugary energy drinks. Abundant in calcium it is a nutritious cholesterol free boost after workouts. It also has less calories and sodium than most soft drinks or juices.

As you may or may not know, we just purchased our first house. We were so excited to finally have a place of our own to raise our child and plant roots (literally and figuratively)! Unfortunately, in attempting to make some simple upgrades, we found some dangerous, toxic chemicals right under our feet. This is not a job we can do ourselves, so we have to pay professionals who specialize in this kind of removal. We also then need to buy new floors for the whole house. Neither of these is cheap, and while we had some money set aside for little things likely to come up, we were not prepared for something this huge.

My plans for the new house had included building my own LEGO studio / workshop in the back which will now have to be put off indefinitely. If everyone who is a LEGO fan could chip in $5, as if you bought an impulse polybag, we could get the house detoxified and move in next month. Any contribution, great or small is so super duper appreciated.

We need your help. We cannot live in this house until this is done. We need to make our home safe for our child.

Thank you all so much, and we love you!!

Skin type:

Normal to oily-combination skin.

 

Benefits:

Seaweed from Bali's' southern tip; Nusa Dua. Richer than any land plant, seaweed is recognized as a complex source of vital minerals, trace elements, proteins and vitamins. The vitamins and minerals nourish the skin helping to "soften" rough, dry skin and help to remove dead skin cells. When included in skin treatments, it has been reported that seaweed assists in the emulsification of fat cells & tissues.

 

Additionally, added nutrient-rich Chlorophyll made from Alfalfa grass. Chlorophyll being rich in many vitamins and minerals works to nourish tired, exposed skin. Chlorophyll's strongest attribute is its ability to accelerate the formation of granulation tissue that forms the base for new tissue growth.

 

The essential oil that have been used blend compliments this soaps healing properties making it an excellent choice for normal to oily-combination, acne-prone skin. Lime essential oil is astringent, antibacterial, and antiseptic; Lime oil balances overactive sebaceous glands that lead to oily or blemished skin, and helps clear acne. It revitalizes under-active and mature skin and helps with cellulite by improving circulation and encouraging the elimination of wastes. Lime oil exfoliates dead skin with a slight peeling action enlivening the complexion. Long-term treatment with lime oil reduces broken capillaries and varicose veins, softens scar tissue and minimizes warts and corns. Lime oil can also strengthen brittle nails and hair.

 

Sage essential oil has been referred to as the "Holy Herb" by the Greeks and Romans because of its wide spread healing uses in folk medicine. Sage oil is antiseptic, reduces perspiration, and stimulates the circulation. It has an estrogen-like active ingredient which tautens the skin. Sage oil is very helpful in healing functional disturbances of the skin and hair. Aromatically Sage is fresh and ÏgreenÓ, spicy and herbaceous, somewhat camphoraceous.

 

Tea tree essential oil is known and accepted internationally as an effective disinfectant, fungicidal, bactericidal, and virucidal. Tea tree oil is used to treat acne, sunburn, dandruff, burns, oily skin, rashes, insect bites, cuts, infected wounds and used regularly will maintain clear, healthy skin.

 

Just as the ocean, SensatiaÌs Seaweed, Sage & Bali Lime handmade soap is fresh, natural and full of life.

 

Ingredients:

Extra virgin coconut oil (Cocos Nucifera) palm oil (Elaeis guinensis) water (H2O) soda lye (NaOH) lime cold-pressed (Citrus aurantifolia) sage dalmatian (Salvia officinalis) & tea tree (Melaleuca alternafolia) essential oils, chlorophyll (Medicago sativa) seaweed (Ascophyllum nodosum).

 

Application:

Massaging the soap lather on the fatty areas of the body promotes blood circulation and increases the body's metabolic rate. When the pores open during a warm bath or shower, the active ingredients penetrate into the dermis and help to dilate the blood vessels. This contributes to enhanced blood circulation which promotes the breakdown of fats and lipids. Seaweed will soothe damaged or irritated skin, heal minor skin infections, detoxify and cleanse, to help you maintain smooth, firm textured and radiant skin.

 

To indulge in a luxuriously-creamy, aromatic, botanical shower: Wet entire naked body, while breathing deeply begin to lather soap, enjoy the handmade soap texture, wash body thoroughly, rinse with fresh, cool water. Best enjoyed under a tropical waterfall. Store in cool, dry place, free of puddled water or rain. Always recycle.

How can you connect your own personal bio-electromagnetic field directly into the Earth’s much larger and slower field in order to discharge high frequency energy that has entered into your field from the environment?

 

How can you use simple grounding technology help you beat jet lag, boost energy and catch up on years of lost sleep?

 

Today we are exploring the practice of connecting our body to the Earth’s magnetic field, which is a very low and steady 8hz charge, as this practice allows us to discharge all that high frequency energy that is flying around our environment, altering and distorting our body’s natural bio-electromagnetic field.

 

Grounding out high frequency energy from our field into the Earth can be done most directly by lying down on the grass, the forest floor or a sandy beach, though there is very simple and effective technology that can allow us to use the electrical grounding system inside any properly wired building in order to connect to the Earth’s balancing 8 Hz charge.

 

Of course, everyone knows that lying on the beach is incredibly relaxing and there’s been plenty of research into how the concentration of negative ions at the beach are so beneficial for our health because they donate electrons to our bio-electromagnetic field.

 

And we know that negative ions are produced in mass by the crashing water of the waves, so walking right by the breaking waves is where you get the freshest air. And this is also one reason you may be drawn to linger in the shower, because breathing in the negative ions from crashing water is just really refreshing…

 

But negative ions are not the only beneficial effect we get from the beach. Walking along the beach also helps our electrical body to connect to the low 8 Hz frequency of the Earth… and this is especially pronounced when you lay down on the beach for a while.

 

Have you ever laid down on the beach and gotten so relaxed that you get the sensation of feeling you’re actually like, magnetically stuck to the ground? Like the beach is literally holding you down, in a very pleasant and relaxing way, but you are going to have to really uhhhhhh! push! to get yourself up!

 

And I’m sure you have noticed that you also get very refreshed from laying on the beach like this, and also that if you get up too quickly from this deep relaxation, you feel groggy and a bit discombobulated…. but if you lay there long enough, you end up feeling deeply recharged.

 

Well, these effects are not due to negative ions but from being so directly connected to the Earth’s slowly oscillating 8 hz frequency.

 

This low frequency slows your electromagnetic field down immensely, which allows your body to literally “ground out” all those high frequencies that have entered into your field, such as and wifi’s standard 2.4 gigahertz frequency and cell phones with 4 and 5 gigahertz frequencies.

 

You know, there is an invisible sea of high frequency energy that we are swimming in all the time.

 

So grounding ourselves to the Earth by laying on the beach or the forest floor is a powerful natural remedy that can help us detoxify at the body’s electromagnetic level, and, as would make sense, this has a very powerful effect on our brain and our nervous system, both of which are highly electrical.

 

Seen from a more conventional medical perspective, grounding lets our autonomous nervous system drop into a very deep parasympathetic state, which helps to restore our foundation of centered focus, presence, clarity, and restores equilibrium to all the body’s systems.

 

To do an intention grounding practice, you can lay around on the beach and wait for grounding to happen naturally, but it’s actually pretty easy to do this consciously to speed up the process of grounding. You lay on the beach, on the grass, really anywhere on the earth is fine, and you can use a blanket or a towel to not get too dirty if you prefer, because the electromagnetic frequency of the Earth can definitely pass through fabric. Though having some direct skin contact is probably more effective.

Step 1 Ready yourself Ready yourself. Morning, produce a unique day your quit. Don't deviate using this strategy.You should be detoxified, organized and ready Once you eventually do stop smoking before you truly stop smoking which means you do not feel like you got or shed your absolute best

Thornleigh Oval, Thornleigh, New South Wales

 

The Sulphur-crested Cockatoo, Cacatua galerita, is a relatively large white cockatoo found in wooded habitats in Australia and New Guinea. It has a total length of 44–55 cm (17–22 in), with the Australian subspecies larger than subspecies from New Guinea and nearby islands. The plumage is overall white, while the underwing and tail are tinged yellow. The expressive crest is yellow. The bill is black, the legs are grey, and the eye-ring is whitish. These birds are very long-lived, and can live upwards of 70 years in captivity, although they only live to about 20–40 years in the wild. They have been known to engage in geophagy, the process of eating clay to detoxify their food. These birds produce a very fine powder to waterproof themselves instead of oil as many other creatures do.
