BACH FLOWER REMEDIES: CHICORY PEOPLE’S BEHAVIOR

admin — Thu, 26 May 2011 14:09:55 +0000

Chicory people may even simulate sickness to keep friends and relatives waiting on them. They may even weep incessantly just for wanting attention all the time. Chicory characters like to have a kind of possessive pride in the feelings and lives of their dear ones. The grandma is very helpful to all the members of her family, loves them and wants to control their lives – organizes, guides, criticizes and directs and quite often forces her attention on the family. She feels hurt if her attentions are not accepted with gratitude. In her own words » I am telling you because I mean you well.» The Chicory mother feels happy in the company of her children. She feels elated if her grown up children make distant calls «How do you do»? on week days, and travel long distances on Sundays and holidays to see her personally. She is aptly described as «the needy mother». When a child feigns sickness – headache, stomach ache or nausea, when the school bus comes to pick him up and feels alright when the school bus has left him, then it can safely be presumed that there is nothing physically wrong with the child. He only wants attention all the time for which the proper remedy is CHICORY.Similarly there are many professional beggars in India who mangle some body-part to invoke sympathy or attention of the public. They need CHICORY Remedy.*86\308\8*

LOOKING AFTER YOUR HEALTH – THE BEST PREVENTION AGAINST RESPIRATORY DISEASES VARIOUS CAUSES (CONCLUSION)

We have to build up our immunity if we are to resist respiratory diseases, for we cannot always avoid coming in contact with infection. Research specialists are probably correct in their assertion that it is unusual to find a person in Europe who, at one time or another, has not had a mild tubercular infection that could have triggered the full-blown disease if he had not had sufficient resistance or immunity. That is why our first great task is to acquire this immunity.

These observations emphasise that the best way to prevent disease is to assure good health. How can this be achieved? By putting the following suggestions into practice. First, a natural health-food diet is essential; then we need plenty of light, fresh air, sunshine, exercise and deep-breathing. The more natural your way of life and your diet, the less time spent cooped up in small rooms, and the more you use your free time to breathe and move around in the fresh air and natural light, the less you will be susceptible to disease. Whatever else you do, these rules are basic for your health and well-being.

LOOKING AFTER YOUR HEALTH – THE BEST PREVENTION AGAINST RESPIRATORY DISEASES VARIOUS CAUSES (FOOD)

In the first place, what you eat is of the utmost importance. This has been proved by experience gained in every part of the world. It is astonishing that people living in the healthiest mountain regions, for example the Swiss Alps, where outsiders go to be cured, may actually contract ТВ themselves. Some time ago I met the warden of a ski chalet who had contracted pulmonary tuberculosis in spite of the fact that he had spent whole winters at a height of over 1,800 m (6,000 feet). However, the cause was obvious: his diet consisted of too much protein, too much canned food and too many unhealthy items containing refined white flour and white sugar. The bad air in the chalet also contributed to his illness. In those days skis still had to be waxed and the fumes from melted wax naturally increased the poisons already in the stale air. Moreover, in a misguided effort to save fuel, the windows were hardly ever opened. Yet fresh air is an absolute necessity for good health.

To my astonishment, when travelling abroad, I have encountered a great deal of tuberculosis even in lands which have the best climatic conditions for good health. I was amazed that even Greece, a country with an abundance of sunshine, has had to fight this disease. In Holland too, particularly in the small offshore islands, many people are affected. Doctors are probably right in blaming the damp climate of the low-lying countries, although living in such a climate does not necessarily mean that weak lungs cannot be avoided. Other factors must share the blame for such disorders, for instance a one-sided diet, especially one consisting almost exclusively of fish. Anyone who is sufficiently informed about the cause of a disease can take care to prevent it and this is clearly a wiser course to take than waiting for a disease to strike and then trying to cure it. The following observations and hints are therefore primarily intended for those who are healthy, but they will also benefit the less fortunate to improve and possibly cure their condition.

THE NATURE DOCTOR IMPROVING THE VALUE OF RAW FOOD

admin — Thu, 12 Mar 2009 08:59:44 +0000

Many of those people who once mocked the idea of eating ‘rabbit food’, raw food, are now beginning to realise that there may be something in it after all. The antibiotic properties of food are destroyed by cooking, because many substances in our food are sensitive to heat; these include not merely its vitamin and mineral content but also many other substances needed for our well-being, some of which are yet to be discovered. For the body to receive all the vital substances it needs, everyone should take a certain amount of fresh raw vegetables and fruit. As we are especially interested in the substances that help us to resist infectious diseases, if you have a garden or allotment, whatever its size, make sure to plant gardencress, watercress, nasturtiums and horseradish. Serve these plants raw in salads, chop them finely and add them to soups and stews, or mix them with cottage cheese or quark; they are also good in sandwiches. I have already mentioned that finely grated horseradish adds a refreshing flavour to carrot salad, but it can also be added to other salads. Those of you who have so far rejected carrot salad as too sweet will enjoy it with the pleasant flavour of horseradish. At the same time you will be administering natural antibiotics.

For the benefit of all who advocate health from herbs and natural foods, especially raw foods, and in defence of their convictions, let me quote the long-standing German proverb, ‘You might go further and not fare so well.’
