Whooooooah! What a busy week it's been! We're all out supporting HSCO to win the 25K delegation, and it's so cool to see Nat Med members jump to support
. We were going to release a contest this week, but we're going to wait til the dust settles and start the challenge next weekend instead. Meanwhile, enjoy a few different posts this week and some interesting new finds and new people!
In case you were wondering how we chose posts to be featured in these curations, we favour:
- original articles
- a blend of personal stories and facts/research (either anecdotal or otherwise) to engage the reader
good images or photos - novel or interesting approaches to self care through natural remedies
- content that makes us go aaaaaaaaahhhhh
If you'd like help making your posts pop, please let us know - we're here to help you succeed!
is a new member of Natural Medicine and posts about yoga, meditation and healthy eating. Her dual language posts are a delight for their humour and passion. Go check her out and give her some love! Find a post on ommmmmms here
My cat in the back did not want to stop singing about the pain... Well, as a yoga practitioner, you know some tricks on how to trick the thinker into one. So I focused on two words that my teacher likes to say in her classes: "Inhale-patience exhale .... Love!"
Speaking of meditation, 's been away for a while, so it's great to see a few posts from her this week about meditative life. Check out their post here on meditation and forgiveness. She writes:
One of the practices is to “seek pardon from anyone who I might have hurt or harmed” and another is to “grant pardon to anyone who might have hurt or harmed me, intentionally or unintentionally.” As I began searching myself, the walls and linings of the internal caverns, when evoking these two phrases, I realized I had a lot of blocks toward these exercises. Let the fun begin!
We discovered this week - another alchemist in the house! Check out their post here. They write:
We will be doing a potent alchemical cannabis elixir, I am using CBD Rich cannabis since that is what is legal in our country. You can do this with every type of cannabis and it will transform it into something that far surpasses its already strong medical potency even if that might seem impossible given how generous and miraculous she already is in the forms we use her commonly today. We will tincture the plant, strain out the leftovers and burn them, leach the ashes in distilled water, filter, evaporate water to crystalize the alkaline mineral salts of the plant, add those back into the tincture and then watch the MAGIC HAPPEN!
I have known doctors
who cared nothing for patients
over their pockets.
This is 's haiku - how this sums up the disillusionment which has led us to natural medicines! Go give this post some love - she's donating the post payout to
! Bless her cotton socks! It's an awesome post - how many of you have had this experience?
Like many people, and especially women, I have gone to clinics and hospitals with real maladies only to be told it was my imagination, that what I told them couldn't possibly be true, and/or have had my hand metaphorically patted and been told to go home like a good little girl, and do as my doctor ordered. Forgive my language, but screw them, and all doctors like them. They are a dime a dozen, infect the medical field at every level, and aren't worth a hundredth of what their parents spent on their woefully inadequate educations. I've nearly died, more than once, due to some quack choosing not to believe me. As have friends, family members, acquaintances and co-workers. And a few actually died because their doctors ignored what they told them was wrong.
