Quick Story Time:
Nostradamus was born in France in 1503. He studied medicine and became a physician, treating plague victims throughout France and Italy. There was no known remedy at the time; most doctors relied on potions made of mercury, the practice of bloodletting, and dressing patients in garlic soaked robes.
Nostradamus had developed some very progressive methods for dealing with the plague. He didn't bleed his patients, instead practicing effective hygiene and encouraging the removal of the infected corpses from city streets. He became known for creating a "rose pill," an herbal lozenge made of rosehips (rich in natures Vitamin C) that provided some relief for patients with mild cases of the plague. His cure rate was impressive, though much can be attributed to keeping his patients clean, administering low-fat diets, and providing plenty of fresh air. We have much to learn from history.
There are a few common sense measures to take in effort to stay well and healthy:
1. Practice good hygiene - Washing hands with warm water and soap - clean surfaces you normally don't clean - your phone, door knobs, ext.. (MAKE YOUR OWN SANITZER) (bought typically is HEAVY in pesticides and is causing allergic reactions) Blog will be posted soon, use search bar.
2. Avoid touching face, eyes, nose
3. Rinsing methods - keeping hydrated (virus can literally slide off your body if you are hydrated), Nasal lavage, garage with warm salt water, brushing teeth, drinking hot tea,
4. Sleep
5. Keep you aura flowing with time in nature ( I love sitting against a tree and playing a youtube meditation)
6. Get exercise - your body thrives with the demand of appropriate regular exercise.
7. Proper whole foods and probiotics (kefir, kimchi) good bacteria!

I believe that there is a “best version” in every person. Some people can advance throughout life, and some people can get stuck while never growing. It is not to say that people are not perfect. Everyone is very much perfect the way they are currently, no matter what. It is more about getting in touch with the best version of themselves that is just sitting and waiting to come out. Within these changes a person will become more of themselves through making these best choices for themselves giving a sense of empowerment to the individual.
It is normal to go through periods of unhealthy episodes with junk food, getting sick, feeling sad, getting hurt, etc. Sometimes living in a society where only selective information is shared online can create an illusion that one is inadequate. Beside this, it is when you get stuck in the unhealthy parts is where people can really find themselves eventually spiraling downwards, because they have no motivation to move up and with the lack of knowhow on how to do so . We are always in a state of flux throughout the course of everyone’s life. This is completely normal, everything in life moves.
To even begin making a healthy choice one has to have the knowledge and/or the training to so. You simply cannot expect someone to change direction without knowing the abstractions behind an idea. If your parents likely lead unhealthy lives and have made unhealthy choices in front of you, a child is due to follow the same suit. A person needs to have a sense of autonomy(independence) in order to feel more self-motivated to make these choices. After this they can better find themselves, when they uncover what was covered.
