Headaches – What a Pain! Homeopathy Helps

Homeopathy

headacheThe subject of headaches is a vast one, but neednt be elusive. Homeopathy has a reputation for addressing headaches squarely without side effects and worsening of the person in general.

The

taking analgesics. Tylenol, aspirin and their derivatives admittedly

What Is Homeopathy?

Homeopathy

homeopathyAbout 200 years ago Samuel
Hahnemann, a German physician, gave up his practice of medicine when he
found the medications of his time to be ineffective and dangerous. He
later resumed practice after he discovered homeopathy. Homeopathy is a
therapeutic method using natural substances in micro dosages to
stimulate the body’s innate natural resources. Homeopathy views a
person’s health as a reflection of the entire individual rather than
only in terms of the presence of isolated symptoms. Homeopathic
remedies could be effective in treating variety of acute and chronic
health problems.

Pagan Parenting in a Muggle World

Wicca and Neopaganism

Parenting is hot. Paganism is hot. But to this Pagan mama, it seems that finding a variety of resources to meet the needs of a variety of paths is a bit more difficult than youd think.

Perhaps Gwyneth Paltrow needs to have a come-to-Goddess moment. Maybe Land of Nod should offer My First Cauldron in a variety of peppy colors. But until then, the options for creatively filling your childs world with magick are still being, ahem, crafted.

The Raw Food Diet

Nutrition and Healing Foods

vegetablesThe raw food diet is as much a life-style as an eating plan; a naturalistic approach which excludes, in addition to cooked and animal foods, processed and refined ingredients.

In the ever-hungry quest for new fads and health panaceas, the raw food diet, with adherents such as Woody Harrelson and Donna Karan, is growing in mainstream popularity. Unlike many other bandwagons however, raw foods (also referred to as living foods’), offer unarguable health benefits and one can reap rewards even as a 50% dabbler. To be a 100% extremist takes commitment, discipline and education and is best introduced gradually to avoid the overwhelm of inevitable detoxification.
