Aloha everyone. I was wondering if everyone could help compile a list of cleanses, how to perform them properly, and what they cleanse. I believe this list would be very beneficial for everyone. Mahalo oukou a pau! Let the list begin!
Read more…Well, for my final in the lā‘au lapa‘au class, I have to evaluate which law of health that I need the greatest improvement on. For this period in time, I definitely need to get more sleep, but in general, I need to cleanse! I must admit, I dabble in cleansing. I just figure that my relatively healthy diet and some exercise will keep my body running well most of the time. But I've recently learned better.

Western medicine says that homeopathy is bogus, and believes that whatever benefit is gained by the recipient is due to the placebo effect. However, I've seen Bach Flower Remedies work on animals, babies, and small children who have little to no knowledge of what you are giving them.
I personally use 'Rescue Remedy' any time my body undergoes abnormal stress, like going to the dentist or flying long distances. Also Rescue Remedy would be good for shock. I have also used their 'olive' remedy for extreme fatigue... it doesn't make me all that much more awake per se but it does keep me from getting grouchy when I'm overtired.
The best way is to just choose one basic remedy and use it in context, and see if it actually works for you. Enjoy!
Recently, I came across something called Bach Flower Remedies. Since you guys have a focus on herbal medicine, perhaps one of you'll have an opinion on Bach Flower Remedies and their restorative claims?

Guerrilla gardening: Seed bombs
* Combine 2 parts mixed seeds (indigenous flowers, herbs or vegetables) with 3 parts compost. [For our pā‘ina, we're bombing with lā‘au; be careful of bombing with invasive weeds!]
* Stir in 5 parts powdered red or brown clay.
* Moisten with water until mixture is damp enough to mold into balls.
* Pinch off a penny-sized piece of the clay mixture and roll it between the palms of your hands until it forms a tight ball (1 inch in diameter).
* Set the balls on newspaper and allow to dry for 24 - 48 hours. Store in a cool, dry place until ready to sow.
Throw the balls into vacant lots, pavement cracks, long-standing rubbish piles, or anywhere that would benefit from a bit of random greenery.
