Our philosophy about health is that rest, getting treated with Eastern Medicine’s restorative methods, and time will resolve common conditions, as long as they’re taken care of preventatively. You want to use this medicine when something new crops up and it doesn’t seem to be getting better on its own.
Eastern Medicine helps the body achieve a more constant state closer to homeostasis by improving communication between the interconnected systems. Another way of saying this is it makes everyone “play nice.”
Lay the Foundation to Raise Your Vibration
If you want to have a good quality of life, you’ll find that if you follow the basics you’ll enjoy more days feeling good than not. The plan is simple.
- Eat nourishing food
- Practice mind-body movement; examples are yoga, restorative yoga, qigong or taiqi
- Find a deep breathing exercise you can summon at a moment’s notice
- Maintain a good attitude
- Take time to really rest – creating is restful, for example
Poor health comes about for any number of reasons. Chronic stress is the main culprit, made worse by lifestyle choices and habits. A compromised immune system can make you susceptible to viral or bacterial infections. Other factors that influence health are your unique constitutional tendencies and the trauma of accidents, big and small. Any of these issues impact the body, mind, and emotions, which then need rehabilitation to be restored back to health. It takes time but it’s worth the effort – you won’t believe how good you can feel again. So, remember:
The 5 core health habits
