I am continually inspired by the awesome healing power of Spiritual juice fasting as a self-healing tool. Spiritual organic juice fasting cleans the body-mind and feeds the spirit, allowing our physical bodies to better extract the Divine cosmic energy from our normal biochemical energy sources. The end result is the enhancement on all levels of bodily energy, including the Spiritualizing Kundalini force.
Physical toxins can accumulate in many ways; the food we eat, the environment we live in, and daily emotional stresses all contribute to stored toxins in our system. Symptoms such as bad breath, skin manifestations, headaches, weight gain, general malaise, allergies, fungal infections, gastrointestinal conditions, sciatica, various forms of low back pain, irritability, anxiety, insomnia, and depression can all be indications of a system overloaded by mental and physical toxins. The Power of Organic Green Juice Fasting with supportive detoxification modalities has been clearly shown to turn this around.
Natural Liquid Zeolite Detox Product
This summary details a major breakthrough in detoxifying the human body of the carcinogens, heavy metals, viruses, bacteria, fungi, and overall acid conditions that promote and cause disease. Some 70,000 chemicals are being dumped into our environment, 65,000 of which are potentially hazardous to our health. We live in a virtual sea of pollutants, and carry many of these toxins within us. They can be found even in unborn children.
The Power of live foods for healing is being more & more supported by traditional research. Based on recent journal articles the power of a calorie restricted diet (which is still feasting on live foods) and of upgrading gene expression have become keys to understanding the clinical effectiveness of live foods.
The work at the Tree of Life and in all my nutrition books, Spiritual Nutrition and the Rainbow Diet, Conscious Eating and Rainbow Green Live Food Cuisine is to provide an optimal situation for everyone to be successful vegan and live food practitioners. To that end, we address every single issue that is connected with being successful. The B-12 issue is one that is critical to a successful and healthy vegan and live food way of life.
There was a time when dairy was considered rasa or the subtle energy of richness, sweetness, and delight. In India, for example the general population would regularly have a little amount of dairy. This small amount was a way of supplying B12. The cows were treated with a great deal of love and respect. The milk was given freely and they were milked by human hands. Even so, Swami Muktananda, a world-acknowledged master in Kundalini and Shaktipat transmission, taught that all dairy clogs the nadis (subtle energy channels).
In the Suranga Sutra the Buddha states, After my parinirvana (enlightenment) in the final kalpa (time era), different kinds of ghosts will be encountered everywhere, deceiving people and teaching them that they can eat meat and still attain enlightenment… How can a bhikshu (seeker) who hopes to become a deliverer of others, himself be living on the flesh of other sentient beings?
Vitamin O Ultimate Life Force & Rejuvenation Nutrient
The Oxy-Bounce Program is a remarkably successful effort to address a problem that most people in the United States, and in the world, face today. This problem is a lack of “Vitamin O” or oxygen. Researchers have estimated that the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere two hundred years ago was 38%. Currently, it is 19%. In some cities, pollution is so severe that the amount of oxygen in the immediate atmosphere is as low as 12-14%. There is evidence of a correlation between the occurrence of cancer and low oxygen in the atmosphere.
Amazing Castor Oil: Ancient Remedy, Modern Healer
You may be familiar with the use of castor oil for constipation, however, the healing benefits of castor oil reach into far more categories. Over the centuries, castor oil has received a sterling reputation because of its rapid haling benefits on so many different types of disorders.
The Coffee Enema: Its Unique History & Amazing Detox Properties
An enema is a fluid injected into the rectum for the purpose of clearing out the bowel, or of administering drugs or food. The word itself comes from the Greeken-hienai , meaning to send or inject into. The enema has been called one of the oldest medical procedures still used today. Tribal women in Africa, and elsewhere, routinely use it on their children. The earliest medical text in existence, the Egyptian Ebers Papyrus, from 1500 B.C., mentions it. Millennia before, the Pharaoh had a guardian.
The Avian/ Swine/ H1N1 Flu: Preparation, Prevention & Protection
Regarding the Avian/ Swine/ H1N1 Flu, the most important thing to realize is that it has the feared worldwide explosion of it not happened, although it could happen if the avian virus mutates to a less deadly form. (Its present kill rate when transmitted from bird-to-human is 70%). If it does mutate to a human-to-human transmission and becomes less lethal (a kill rate of 1-2%) then there could be a major, worldwide epidemic. The good news is that we have time to prepare, prevent, and protect.
Depleted Uranium: A Crime Against Wisdom
The Issue of Depleted Uranium (DU) is extraordinarily important. Though it represents a clear threat to the health of all humanity, and all life forms on planet Earth, it also represents a clear debasement and loss of any moral or ethical standards by the U.S. and by the rest of the world in allowing DU to be used in warfare. Scientists, medical professionals, war veterans, active duty personnel, international lawyers and the global human community are calling for an awareness of this crisis and simply to stop the use of Depleted Uranium, in order to preserve life on the planet.
Light is the basic component from which all life originates, evolves, and is energized. Light and health are inseparable. Because we have managed to disconnect ourselves from the sources of light with our fluorescent lights, indoor lifestyles, glasses, contact lenses, sunglasses, tanning lotions, flesh foods, processed foods and even cooked vegetarian diets, many of us suffer from chronic “mal-illumination.” Like malnutrition, “mal-illumination” deprives us of a level of nutrients and rhythmic stimulation that is essential for living as fully healthy humans.
The question of fat, and how much fat in the diet, is a very interesting question. The fear of fat that was created by the Pritikin-type diet, has perhaps been a little bit damaging to people on live foods, because cutting out all the fats may create an omega-3 deficiency, which has been associated with depression, metabolic imbalances, anxiety, nervous system and skin disorders. Obviously, excess fat has been associated with such societal problems as obesity, the epidemic of type-II diabetes, and heart disease.
A vegan perspective on Genetic EngineeringGenetically engineered food presents a serious threat to the survival of all species on the planet, and the very living planetary organism called the Earth. Paradoxically, the crisis that genetically engineered food is presenting to the world represents a tremendous impetus for us world citizens to take control of our lives and protect the environment in a way that goes beyond government interference in the healing of the planet. To truly understand the situation that we face, we need to have some basic facts about genetically engineered food.
Jet Stress – How to Survive Life in the Air
Flying high on an airplane is as much a stress for the body, mind, and spirit as flying high on the inner plane is a balm. There are two major categories of jet stress, commonly known as jet lag: (1) the disruption of all the biological clocks as we travel through the time and magnetic zones and (2) the effects of living inside the belly of the airborne electromagnetic vibrating beast.
