Healing Benefits of Reiki

Vitamins and minerals are micronutrients that serve a specific purpose and uniquely benefit the body. For example, vitamin A supports vision and bone growth, whereas vitamin E strengthens the immune system and helps repair DNA. Vitamin and mineral deficiency can impair the body’s ability to heal and protect itself.

Taking vitamins does not make up for an unhealthy diet, and vitamins are an insufficient substitute for nutrients from fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. However, a general multivitamin and mineral supplement can be a good health safeguard against periodic vitamin shortfalls in your diet.

Noni Juice Benefits

Although the Polynesians use all parts of the Noni plant, its best known and most widely used benefits in the modern world are derived from the Noni Juice, which is extracted from the Noni fruit.

The world's authority on Noni, Dr. Neil Solomon, has spent a decade studying the Noni Juice. In the four books which he has published, he details all the enormous range of benefits of Noni Juice. In particular, he refers to high blood pressure, cancer, arthritis, and chronic pain being the most common and debilitating conditions known to man and how Noni Juice cures or contributes significantly to curing these ailments.

He also describes the extensive modern-day research on Noni Juice and provides countless testimonials regarding the health benefits of Noni Juice. For example, he reports on a survey conducted on more than 25,000 Noni Juice drinkers, which was collected from 1,227 doctors and health professionals. The benefits listed included but were not restricted to, cures for allergy, arthritis, asthma, cancer, chronic fatigue syndrome, cholesterol, fibromyalgia, depression,1 & 2, digestions, enlarged prostate, heart disease, high blood pressure, immune system, kidney disease, pain, respiratory problems, skin disorders, sleeplessness, stress, Parkinson's Disease, multiple sclerosis and even assisting people to give up smoking.

In Africa, the benefits include being used to cure malaria, fever, jaundice, yellow fever and dysentery.

Healing Aromas

Palo Santo (Bursera graveolens) is an aromatic tree endemic to the Galapagos Islands. It grows in northern Argentina, Paraguay, Bolivia, Brazil, and the coastal dry forests of Ecuador. Palo Santo means “holy wood” or “sacred tree.” Botanically, Palo Santo is a member of the Burseraceae family; it is a close relative of the Elephant Tree (Bursera microphylla), an aromatic tree that grows in the desert of the southwestern U.S. and Baja California, and a more distant relative of frankincense trees (Boswelia).

Palo Santo is one of the most important trees used in traditional ethnobotanical medicine of South America. It is widely used as an incense for repelling mosquitoes. The wood is cooked into decoction and taken for fevers, infections, and skin diseases. It is still widely used by shamans of the Andes in curing ceremonies.

Although the oil is present in young trees and saplings, the highest quality is distilled from the aged heartwood. Palo Santo oil is golden yellow, with a fresh and intense citrus aroma. Under the lemon top notes are subtle resinous wood notes and a slight medicinal pungency, which give the oil an intriguing complexity.

Analysis of Palo Santo oil reveals that it contains high levels of limonene, a monoterpene compound that has been found to have chemo-preventive and chemo-therapeutic effects against several types of cancer. In medical aromatherapy, the oil can be used as an anxiolytic agent that counteracts panic attacks and anxiety, a respiratory remedy for cough, colds, and asthma, for headaches and migraines, and in massage therapy for pain and inflammation of the muscles and joints. In spiritual aromatherapy, it can be beneficial for meditation, concentration, and for enhancing creativity and learning.
