Indigenous Cultures Have Primal Posture & No Back Pain Unlike Americans

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on Fri, 06/19/2015 - 17:27

Back pain is a major problem in America, with about 1/3 of the population unable to find treatments that will help. Chronic back pain can be crippling and severely reduce the amount of exercise and overall enjoyment one can experience.

There are other cultures that don’t have this problem. There are some, in fact, that rarely have any cases of back pain at all.

One indigenous tribe in central India reported essentially none. And the discs in their backs showed little signs of degeneration as people aged.

An acupuncturist in Palo Alto, Calif., thinks she has figured out why. She has traveled around the world studying cultures with low rates of back pain — how they stand, sit and walk. Now she’s sharing their secrets with back pain sufferers across the U.S.

About two decades ago, Esther Gokhale started to struggle with her own back after she had her first child.

How Can You Use Animals to Heal?

Anyone with a pet would agree that animals have healing powers. They fill your home with love, they bring families together and studies have also shown that they can improve your health.

As Florence Nightingale stated back in the 1860’s- “a small pet is often an excellent companion for the sick, for long chronic diseases especially.”

Today, we still know this to be true and science is still testing out the different healing benefits that having an animal can provide.

One study published in the American Journal of Cardiology found that men who suffered from heart attacks were more likely to survive if they owned a dog. Another study found that having a pet can lower your blood pressure in just six months.

Research is also being conducted into the healing potential of a cats purr. Many believe that the vibrations created by a cat purring can be therapeutic for disease and can help reduce muscular aches and pains and even inflammation.

Holding Onto Pain

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on Fri, 06/19/2015 - 09:20

Like handfuls of broken glass and fistfuls of barbed wire…..you hold onto your pain like it will save your life.  Yes, it may have kept you safe for quite some time, but at what cost?  If you choose to hold onto the pain labels you have given yourself and that others have given you, there is a chance you may miss out on new experiences that are meant to heal those wounds.
Let go, my darling child and grow.  I assure you that a new kind of safety awaits. ~ Creator

Globalization, Economics and the Culture of Consumption

Globalization is the emergence of bodies that organize, operate and economize on an international scale. It arguably originated to a small degree millennia ago, however since the 19th Century, and particularly over the past few decades, it has come to dominate the way in which the world owns, distributes, obtains, consumes and wastes its resources.

At first glance, globalization appears as a primarily positive influence for the socio-economic evolution of our global culture, because it has brought some short-terms gains; however the long-term reality is much more destructive. The deregulation of international trade and the consolidation of power structures has caused severe damage to local economies, cultural diversity, food quality, business ethics, Mother Earth and individual health, among other areas.
