* 2 WEEKS OF RAW FOOD AND WHEATGRASS AT OHI

For my 64th Birthday, I treated myself to a 2 week detox at the Optimum Health Institute located in Lemon Grove California. It was an amazing experience that I highly recommend.



What was even more amazing was that I have learned how to love myself enough to take time out and do something like this for myself!

OHI was very peace filled. No computer or TV or phone. The world stopped and it was all about me. A time to do a deep tissue cleanse that consisted of all raw food, wheatgrass and food combining. Colon therapy with wheatgrass implants too.

I am telling you I am GREEN inside and out by now. I am suprised that the whites of my eyes did not turn green!

I spent time in meditation and got to read 2 books.


Amazing renewal of Body, Mind and Spirit.

This was not a spa experience. It took disipline. I would not have been as successful if I tried to do this type of deep tissue cleanse at home. I needed to be at a place like OHI to have the success that I did.

I came back home with and abundance of energy and a renewed spirit.

Looking forward to seeing you and coaching you on your Body, Mind and Spirt journey!

To motivate you to LOVE yourself, see our September Specials.

Many Blessings,

* 4th of July Special - FREE yourself of TOXINS!


DETOX IONIC FOOT BATH

Foot Detox Ionic Foot Bath
Single session $50.00 

(July 4th Special: $30 with a Colon Hydrotherapy Session)




Experience a safe gentle Bio-Cleanse while soaking your feet in our new European Foot Spa.

THE BENEFITS:

Reducing toxins in your body have been known to produce improvements in:

•General Body Balance
•Lactic Acid Reduction
•General Metabolism
•Menstrual Pain
•Kidney Function
•Liver Function
•Weight Loss
•Skin Problems
•Energy
•Circulation
•Arthritis

WHY CLEANSE YOUR BODY?


Detoxification is the body's natural process for eliminating or neutralizing toxins via the liver, the kidneys, perspiration, exhalation, and through the elimination process. As a result of the industrial revolution and the post World War II Petrochemical Revolution, toxins have been accumulating in the human system faster than they can be eliminated. People now carry within their bodies toxins from industrial chemicals, pesticides, food additives, heavy metals, anesthetics and the residues of pharmaceutical drugs as well as legal drugs such as alcohol, tobacco, caffeine, etc ... In addition, most drinking water contains over several hundred chemicals, including excessive levels of lead.

THE PROCESS



Based on an Ancient Chinese remedy, the process takes harmful toxins from the body resulting in improved wellness and health.

There are around 4,000 sweat glands in the feet through which the toxins are emitted.

The process makes use of the body's natural functions and works by energizing the water to attract positive and negative ions from both the body and the water. The water in the foot spa becomes an extension of the water in the body, from which it is separated by nothing more than a thin membrane of skin on your feet.

This stimulation can have a positive effect in the re balancing of the body. This process makes use of the 2,000 pores in the existing membrane of the sebaceous and eccrine glands in each foot to remove by-products of excretion, which includes toxins.

As the Bio-Energetic field in the body restores and re balances, you may see improvements in the regulating supply of nutrients and oxygen to the tissue, thus allowing a greater level of waste products excreted. This action should have a positive effect on your body's well being.

* MINI LIVER/GALLBLADDER FLUSH


To prepare this Liver Flush, squeeze the juice of one or two lemons (use the white pulp from the lemons as well), add one tablespoon of organic cold-pressed olive oil and one or two minced cloves of garlic. If this is too strong use a small piece of ginger root instead. This is a great tonic and cleanser for the liver.



After drinking this mixture, relax or exercise for half and hour and then drink a couple of cups of warm seed tea. Either fennel, anise, caraway, or fenugreek.

Make this by adding two level teaspoons of seeds to two cups of water and simmer for 15 minutes in a covered glass or ceramic pot. Let it steep for another 15 minutes and drink in sips over the course of 10 minutes or so.


This tea assists the action of the Liver flush and also acts as a relaxant and carminative (relieves gas) in the digestive tract. In another half hour eat a light breakfast.

Repeat this cleanse once, twice and eventually 3 times per week. Couple these procedures with a WEEKLY COLONIC as the liver can only release toxins effectively when the elimination channels are open!



When you feel strong enough you can change to every other day for a week or two and then daily for 3 days. After that take a break and repeat just the 3 day cleanse coupled with a colonic on a monthly basis to support the liver throughout the year.



If you are a veteran "cleanser" you may want to venture into a liver and gallbladder flush as outlined in such books as THE AMAZING GALLBLADDER AND LIVER CLEANSE by Andreas Moritz.

* Growing Fresh Air THE RUBBER PLANT

In our earlier article (click here to read), we showed you how to grow fresh air by  using common house plants.

The Rubber Plant is another plant to use to grow fresh air.




Formerly known as the Ficus Robusta, the rubber plant was a favorite of the Victorians and remains equally popular today. Bred for toughness, it will survive in less light than most plants its size. It will tolerate dim light and cool temperatures.

This plant is easy to grow and is especially effective at removing FORMALDEHYDE.






CARE
Feed regularly during the summer months only. Water regularly from midsummer to fall, allowing the soil to dry slightly between watering, then water sparingly. The rubber tree does not tolerate overwatering

* DETOX with a good hot EPSOM SALT SOAK

This is a wonderfully therapeutic stress and pain
reliever as well as a great DETOX that I like to tell my clients about that can help when you are sore, as a maintenance between massages, or if you just want to unwind and sleep really really deep or  DETOX.

DIRECTIONS:
You are going to need between 12- 15  lbs of Epsom Salt (remember this is for a DETOX therapy)- so go to Walgreens or Target to get the unscented big bag of Epsom Salt.

Usually, women need about 12 lbs. and men need 15 lbs. but you can experiment with a little less if you are slight of frame (100 lbs).  The goal is to make the water density greater than your body so that it can act like a siphon of sorts and draw out the impurities through the skin, while relaxing the muscles and melting the stress.



Pour the salt into about an inch or so of water in the tub until the salt is completely covered and let it dissolve for about 10 min. or so.

Fill the tub with HOT water ( as hot as you can take without burning yourself)

Soak for 12- 20 minutes.

Pull the plug to drain the tub, but do not get out of the water.  As the water
drains out it continues to act as a siphon pulling out more toxins.

Rinse off with cool water for about 1 min to remove the impurities on the skin and tighten the pores.  Take your regular shower. 

                                          SLEEP TIGHT.....................NIGHT   NIGHT


A few things to keep in mind if you are going to do this soak:

If you have any health or medical concerns such as high blood pressure or diabetes, it is recommended to speak with your physician first.

Keep a cool compress handy and cold glass of orange juice or an electrolyte replenishing drink to help you stay hydrated as this process can be both depleting and intense.

Have someone in the house that can check on you and help you if need be.

Do NOT drink alcohol when doing the soak!!!!!

Not recommended for jetted tubs, as the salt can be corrosive to the inner components of jets.

* Sea salt and baking soda, best all natural remedy for curing radiation exposure and cancer.


If you have been exposed to any form of radiation, either for medical diagnostic purposes (fluoroscopy/mammography/other medical x-ray exams)



OR

in the course of radiotherapy treatment,

OR

if you are otherwise concerned by excessive radiation exposure, overload or poisoning (such as living near a nuclear reactor facility, working with diagnostic radiological equipment/in the nuclear processing industries/uranium mining/uranium or plutonium processing),

OR



if you have been exposed to radioactive particles or higher ionizing radiation doses stemming from other sources such as depleted uranium (DU), testing of atomic weapons, frequent flights in higher altitudes, a nuclear disaster (radiation fallout from the Japan nuclear power plants) etc.,

Here are a number of tips and suggested remedies how to naturally help your body excrete damaging radioactive elements (e.g. strontium and radioactive iodine) or detoxify their noxious byproducts such as free radicals as well as deal with radiation burns.


If you are having any kind of radiation treatments, macrobiotic is the cure. Macrobiotics is very effective in curing radiation sickness and cancer.

If you are diagnosed with cancer and you want to survive the cancer avoid any and all exposure to radiation treatment.

Radiation treatment of any kind is what actually kills people diagnosed with cancer.

Exposure to radiation causes a cascade of free radicals that wreak havoc on the body. Free radicals damages DNA, protein, and fats. Free radical damage has been clinically proven to be a major contributor to cancer.

That being said, people don’t die of cancer, they die of radiation poisoning. The repeated exposure to radiation through so-called treatment overwhelms the body’s immune system. Cancer doesn’t cause hair loss for cancer patients, the radiation treatment is solely responsible for that. Cancer doesn’t cause weight loss, the radiation treatment causes that because it suppresses your appetite. Cancer doesn’t cause a cancer patient to become very weak and sick, the radiation treatment poisons the body and makes them very weak and sick.

According to Michio and Aveline Kushi, in his book Macrobiotic Diet, Michio Kushi states: ‘At the time of the atomic bombing of Nagasaki in 1945, Tatsuichiro Akizuki, M.D., was director of the Department of Internal Medicine at St. Francis Hospital in Nagasaki.

Most patients in the hospital, located one mile from the center of the blast, survived the initial effects of the bomb, but soon after came down with symptoms of radiation sickness from the radioactivity that had been released. Dr. Akizuki fed his staff and patients a strict macrobiotic diet of brown rice, miso* and tamari soy sauce soup, wakame and other sea vegetables, Hokkaido pumpkin, and sea salt and prohibited the consumption of sugar and sweets. As a result, he saved everyone in his hospital, while many other survivors in the city perished from radiation sickness.’”

In case you missed it, the secret to surviving all forms of radiation exposure is SEA SALT.

If you are concerned about the radiation fallout from the Japan nuclear plants disaster or if you had an X-ray (from hospitals and airport screening) or radiation treatments for cancer, soak your body in sea salt (not iodized table salt) baths to help pull out the radiation from your body.

If you were diagnosed with mouth or throat cancer and you were subjected to deadly radiation treatments gargling with baking soda mixed in water will help neutralize the radiation.

Baking soda is so powerful in curing radiation contamination that at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico, researcher Don York has used baking soda to clean soil contaminated with uranium.

Sodium bicarbonate binds with uranium, separating it from the dirt; so far, York has removed as much as 92 percent of the uranium from contaminated soil samples.

Still not convinced? Would it help to know that the United States Army recommends the use of baking soda to protect the kidneys from radiation damage.

Radiation is very toxic. Exposure to radiation of any amount is harmful to your body. Exposure to radiation through x-rays (hospitals and airport screening) or any of the so-called cancer treatments are the most dangerous source of radiation poisoning. X-rays and radiation cancer treatments are far deadlier than radiation fallout because the exposure is concentrated and frequent.




To pull the radiation poison out of the body, try bathing in half a cup of sea salt and half a cup of baking soda.

Soak for at least 20-30 minutes, every day for three weeks or every other day for six weeks. . . or go on a vacation to the West Indies or South Pacific and swim in the ocean every day for three weeks!

Why the Indies or South Pacific? Because of the higher concentration of sea salt.

Where is the best place on Earth to go for curing yourself of radiation? The Dead Sea. The Dead Sea salt content is four times that of most world’s oceans. Sea salt draws the radiation out of the body.

Can’t afford to travel to the Dead Sea and cure yourself of the radiation poison from nuclear plant fallout, x-rays and radiation cancer treatment?

A tiny pinch of good quality sea salt in several glasses of distilled water each day will provide one with all the minerals and trace elements you need to rid your body of the radiation and stay healthy.

Can’t stomach sea salt? The amino acid, cysteine also protects against the damaging effects of radiation by terminating the free radicals produced by ionizing radiation.

Cysteine, together with methionine, cystine, and their derivatives, is numbered among the “sulphurated amino acids” due to the fact that these amino acids contain sulfur in addition to carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen.
