Father, I’ll be honest: sometimes the giants in my path look far too big for me to handle. I find myself looking at my own small hands and wondering how I’ll ever stand against the shadows that loom over my peace. Lord, forgive my heart when it tries to strategize in its own strength or shrink back in fear.

Like David, I want to remember that my victory doesn’t depend on my size, but on Your sovereignty. Help me to lay down my heavy armor of control and simply trust in Your name. I am small, but You are infinite, and I rest in the truth that You are already standing in the gap for me.

For the battle is the Lord’s, and he will give you into our hands. : 1 Samuel 17:47

This is a special place where I have had the privilege of
treating clients for the past 8 summer seasons.

One emotional/mental remedy system available
is called the Bach Flower Remedies. This was
developed by Dr. Edward Bach in the early 20th century. This is a certain approach to herbalism
that is alchemical using the essence of a flower
In co-operation with the emotional and mental
need of a person.

There are 38 remedies in this system. They are not
used directly for physical illness, but for the
individuals mental state. The state of a person’s
psychic being has a bearing on the causation, development and cure of physical illness.

These remedies are available at many health food stores and pharmacies. There are written guides
that are published and can be used to decide
which remedy could be helpful.

Because of the number of toxins that are present in our environment in the air, the soil and the food it is a good practice to perform some detoxification of the body from time to time. 

Periodically, I do a liver cleanse using Essiac Tea.
This works well for me and I do notice the
releasing of toxins through defecation. It is
always a good idea to research the use of
something new with your own personal health
status. There are other liver cleanses that
can be researched as well.

I also use a garlic vinegar home made tincture
from time to time for alterative therapy. This
therapy was touted by my herbalism instructor
to cleanse the blood.

I also value kidney cleanses among other
cleanses.

One nutritional area that is particularly important
is the area of mineral consumption. These are raw materials for the body and can not be manufactured
by the body. Some of the herbs offer fantastic
mineral nutrition. Of course the sea weeds are
very helpful for this. Kelp among others can be
added to soups and stews or taken in a capsule.
Two terrestrial herbs that come to mind immediately
for this are nettles and alfalfa.

The easy tea way to help with this is to drink
nettles tea.

Nutrition is always a great topic when addressing optimum health. As we age this continues to be important and becomes more challenging because
the need for caloric intake decreases significantly.

It is always the best choice to choose nutrient dense quality foods to eat. But because the average American diet is compromised these days there are a couple of easy ways to enhance nutrition for everybody.

Using culinary herbs can significantly increase the nutritional value of food. I recommend using these regularly when cooking. Some resources say that this can potentially even triple the nutritional content of the food you’re eating.

Another very easy way to receive great nutrition with a low calorie input is to drink nutritional herbal teas.
It’s a great thing to research. You may find a couple of favorites and keep them around for daily use.

To illustrate the benefits of herbs I use potassium intake as an example. Many people are medically advised to eat bananas to augment their potassium
intake. This is a good idea and offers this benefit.
Another way to obtain potassium is to make a
cup of parsley tea. This offers a greater intake of potassium. I will post the nutritional content of
these. There is a great resource I like to use (among others) for this information.

RFK Jr. faces 10 congressional hearings in the next 7 days.

Not because he’s failing, but because he’s challenging the system.

We must stand with him through this so he can return to his mission of Making America Healthy Again.
