In this article, I am going to address many natural approaches that we can do to nourish ourselves back to normal balance. It's going to require healthy nutrition, exercise, and vitamins and organic herbs. For today, I would like to challenge everyone to go for a walk around your neighborhood. Get some fresh air. Take your dog or your loved one with you. Enjoy your surroundings. Take in the scenery. Stop and literally smell the flowers or bushes along your path.
Before going to bed, take a hot and cold shower. It helps get the blood flowing and helps strengthen the immune system. Hot and cold water therapy has been used for thousands of years with amazing results. Hippocrates the Father of Natural healing was known for his knowledge of hot and cold water applications. Alternating hot and cold water is a great body balancer. Hot water draws old and tired blood out of the internal organs and helps with circulation and opens up the pores to pull out toxins. Cold water sends fresh blood back to the organs and nourishes the core of the body. You should do a couple of cycles of hot and cold water and the finish up with the warm water. This water therapy alone has been known to help with depression and other life threatening illnesses.
After taking your walk and doing your water therapy, it's time to unwind and finish up your day with a relaxing cup of herbal tea. I recommend organic herbs that have a relaxing effect such as: Kava Kava, Chamomile, Passionflower, Skullcap, Peppermint or Spearmint, Blue Vervain just to name a few. Sleepy time tea is also a popular one. Give one of them a try and find your favorite. Add honey or Agave Nectar to taste. If you still need a little extra relaxation, try rubbing on some relaxing lotion such as Lavender to help calm and relax you. Try rubbing the Lavender Lotion on and around the neck to relax stressed out muscles and to help the body relax. You will be amazed of how good you will feel.
