Cold remedies
Coughing, sneezing, runny nose, sore throats, aches and pains? Got a
cold? Feeling miserable? What's in the cupboard that can make you feel
better? What will help you get over your cold quickly? There are many
natural remedies that can help, some you already have at home. Try some
of the following.Colour your diet
Purple grapes, blueberries, kiwi fruit, bananas, peaches and
strawberries make an appetising fruit salad. A fruit salad is much more
appealing with a full colour variation, than if it only has one or two
colours. How important is it to have colourful meals? Is it just because
it looks more interesting and pretty? Or is there a purpose to it?

your overall well-being? Try eating more fiber! The average

Healing kitchen
When an emergency has come up, how many times haven’t you had just the
right treatment in your medicine cupboard? Well, forget the quick trip
to the all night chemist. Look in your fridge. It’s full of medicine and
first aid treatments. Foods have been used as medicines for thousands of
years. They are safe to use and readily available
Monthly Blues
Sometimes it all gets too much, it feels as if the world is closing in
on you. Nothing is going right. Your body may be bloated and breast
aching, maybe your not sleeping. You just can't seem to keep things
under control.
Naturopathy
In this abundant planet we call our home we have been blessed with
everything we need. Within nature we can find a cure for all that ails
us. The human body is an amazing thing; it has an incredible ability to
heal itself. Using natural therapies, the body can be assisted in this
process. This is what Naturopathy is all about.
Sleep Naturally
Tossing and turning all night? The clock is ticking over; minute after
minute, hour after hour, but you just can't sleep. The only thing worse,
is the feeling of being totally zonked the next day. Insomnia is a
problem that affects most people at some time during their lives. It has
many different causes and many different ways of being expressed. For
some, it may be a case of a few restless nights or a lifetime of poor
sleep. Sleep is an important part of our lives allowing us to regain
strength, heal and grow. So when it is disturbed for any reason it can
seriously affect our lives.
Winning the stress game
Stress is a big factor in today’s world. The way we deal with it is as
individual as we are. We need a certain amount of stress to function,
but when it reaches extremes and we can no longer deal with it, it
becomes a problem. Not dealing with our stress levels can lead to many
symptoms and diseases. These can range from things such as headaches and
indigestion and lead to many more serious illnesses if the initial
warning signs are ignored. 10 Natural
Ways to Reduce Stress and Strengthen Your Immune System
Stress seems to have become a constant factor in today's fast-paced
society. If left unchecked, it can wreak havoc upon our health. Learning
how to effectively manage stress can mean the difference between being
robust and full of life, or becoming susceptible to illness and disease.
Stress can weaken the immune system and accelerate the aging process.
The ability to relax and rejuvenate promotes wellness, vitality and
longevity. |

Tarot - an
introduction
that the tarot made its first recorded appearance in medieval France, in
the 12th century. Moreover, it is possible that the cards evolved as
part of the secret folklore of the Romany people (gypsies) and came with
them to Europe…Understanding
the Tarot Deck - Part 1
One of the first steps toward understanding the Tarot lies in appreciating
the meaning of its two Arcana – the Major and the Minor. But even before that,
the novice does well by committing to memory the meaning of “Arcana” – defined
as “mysterious knowledge, language, or information accessible only by the
initiate.”
Understanding the Tarot Deck
- Part 2
