Natural Pain Killing Formula
​By Khana Dias LMT

When it comes to pain most of us go for the quick fix of pharmaceuticals. But what if you were able to make your own recipe from ingredients you have in your kitchen that works just as well without the side effects? 

I have followed  Tony Pantalleresco Knowledge Base,  "Just a guy who knows stuff" for few years now and love the information he shares. Its simple, inexpensive and with lots of medicinal benefits. 

Best part about Tony, if you have any questions you can email him at independz@yahoo.com and you'll get a response pretty quick. Also he does consultations for a very minimal fee. You can visit his website HERE 

 Tales of Everyday Magic-Entanglement
​by Khana Dias LMT

“Science cannot solve the ultimate mystery of nature. And that is because, in the last analysis, we ourselves are a part of the mystery that we are trying to solve”-Maxwell Planck

Every so often you come across a movie that grabs your attention helping to bridge the understanding of the science behind quantum physics and everyday life's mysterious events. Tales of Everyday Magic ~ Entanglement for sure, did exactly that.

This was my inspiration to write this blog since just a few days before watching this movie I had a session with one of my clients where I had a premonition that struck the invisible cord of energy change. Also what started as bringing light to a few short life events of my own, all of the sudden these events spiraled into so much more. Asking questions from different angles, quantum entanglement threw many other energy cords of possibilities into the mix. 

Coming in March: Maori Healer, Ezard Tamaki and his team, are coming to Phoenix & Sedona area in March of 2016 to present their traditions and spiritual work in healing.

The spiritual work in healing that they bring is a journey through the corridors of time, bringing about the sacredness within one’s self to bring forth well being in a safe and natural environment using ancient techniques to help stabilize mind body and soul in a modern world full of uncertainty and chaos.

Healing with Poultices & Compresses
by Khana Dias

If you have not watched Barbara O'Neill's lectures, I would highly recommend it as she has lots of great natural remedies to help with healing of the body with remedies most of us have in our homes.

Barbara O’Neill is a qualified naturopath and nutritionist, is also an international speaker on natural self-healing. She has raised eight children and is a specialist in women’s and children’s health. She is also the health director of the successful Misty Mountain Health Retreat, located in Australia.

An interesting point to notice a description over the video:
"Note from TED: This talk, which features health advice based on a personal narrative, has been flagged as potentially outside TED's curatorial guidelines. Viewer discretion advised."
And why would that be? Sadly even TED's talks are being monitored by Big Pharma to have disclosures as this one. 

Our bodies are designed to heal or fall apart with things we consume on everyday bases. The good news is we have a choice on which path to take that will create a healing effect within us. Will it be medications or lifestyle changes or maybe both?

Salt and Water
by Khana Dias LMT

​We all know the importance of drinking plenty of water throughout the day. However did you know that consuming a good quality unrefined/unprocessed salt which is our electrolytes, is just as important for the body to be able to absorb the water properly?

This video by Barbara O'Neill is excellent to watch as she makes it simple in understanding the body's way on processing salt and water and how many different symptoms the body shows when it's dehydrated.  You will never look at salt and water the same way again.

Dr. F. Batmanghelidj says, "You're not sick; you're thirsty. Don't treat thirst with medication."

Dr. Batmanghelidj has gathered both criticism and acclaim over the years for his assertions that a regime of water can treat a vast array of human illnesses. Is it possible that ordinary water will prevent and cure depression, asthma, arthritis, back pain, migraines, high blood pressure, multiple sclerosis and many other illnesses? As simple as it may seem using common sense, lack of water can definitely cause havoc in the body. 

For those who are sitting behind the desk for long hours of the day there are different things you can do to help alleviate back pain. One change you can make is positioning your chair correctly so your posture is not taking a beating on the rest of your body.

Here is a short video demonstration by Trevor Shaw, Principal Ergonomist, on the proper ways to sit at a desk in front of the computer.

When clients come in for relaxing massage many have the same problems of the neck and shoulders being tight due to the workplace environment that their in.  Stress of course is one of the highest complaints along with the office jobs that require long hours of sitting in the same position.

So for awareness of change, I wanted to share these videos of how to look at stress in a different light along with a video showing different chairs that can help to save your posture. Also an article focusing on posture and breathing techniques that can help in everyday life and work environment. Hope this helps!!!

A Holistic View Posture and Breath
By Mary Bond

As the holistic paradigm joins the mainstream, most of us are increasingly aware that everything is connected to everything else. Within this vision we acknowledge correspondence between body and mind, but most of us haven't yet regarded our posture through a holistic mirror. The usual idea of good posture is an ideal positioning of the chest, shoulders, and neck. This idealized picture is so common that the mere mention of posture in public provokes sheepish adjustments of spines and shoulders.

Incorporating Reflexology into Your Life
by Shirley Vanderbilt

You walk on them all day, but did you know your feet do more than carry you from one place to the next? They also have a unique connection to balanced health and well-being. In a form of bodywork known as reflexology, the feet are said to contain reflex areas that mirror and connect to all parts of the body--and pressure on these points can actually influence your state of health.

Morton’s Toe: One Little Bone, One Big Problem
by Linda Fehrs, LMT

The human body contains many wonderful things. Most of them have been handed down genetically, from parent to child, and there is little we can do to change them. One such trait is called Morton’s Toe. Only about 10 percent of the world population has this attribute, where the second toe appears longer than the first. About 80 percent of those with Morton’s Toe suffer from chronic pain. Much of it is thought to derive from this relatively rare foot configuration. Learn how discomfort from Morton’s Toe can be eased using massage therapy.

Ancient foot massage may ease cancer symptoms.

A study led by a Michigan State University researcher offers the strongest evidence yet that reflexology – a type of specialized foot massage practiced since the age of pharaohs – can help cancer patients manage their symptoms and perform daily tasks.

Funded by the National Cancer Institute and published in the latest issue of Oncology Nursing Forum, it is the first large-scale, randomized study of reflexology as a complement to standard cancer treatment, according to lead author Gwen Wyatt, a professor in the College of Nursing.

The stress-relieving benefits of massage have been well documented, but a recent study shows that massage may have more profound benefits that just relieving stress and relaxing tight muscles.  

The study, published in the journal BMJ, looked at the benefits of massage for brain cancer patients. To be expected, these patients often suffer from neurological problems, which affect their physical functioning, their cognitive abilities and their psychological well-being. 

They also have to deal with the progressive nature of their illness and difficult treatments like radiation, surgery and chemotherapy. Brain cancer patients typically report a high prevalence of depression and other mental disorders.
