Once, every doctor was also an astrologer because knowledge of the zodiac was essential for diagnosing and curing illness. Healing Herbs and Health Foods of the Zodiac reclaims that ancient tradition. It covers the illnesses most often associated with each zodiacal sign, along with the herbs attributed to healing them. For example, common problems with Leos are heart affections, sore eyes, and cramping. The best-known plants associated with Leo include eyebright and marigold which can be used for sore eyes, and mistletoe, a tonic for nervous hearts. - Discover the healing properties of seventy herbs and learn to identify them by sight. - Purify and refine your physical body with the "cell salt" for your sign. - Follow the correct steps for preparing teas, tinctures, cough drops, and salves. - Learn the proper way to harvest and use dozens of different herbs. This book also covers the cell salts for each zodiacal sign. Found in various fruits and vegetables, cell salts are necessary for health. For example, the cell salt of Libra is Sodium Phosphate. Found in celery, spinach, and figs, it maintains the balance between acids and alkalis. Healing Herbs and Health Foods of the Zodiac by Ada Muir is a complete introduction on how to use herbs and plants for healing. Filled with illustrations of dozens herbs, this book is informative to read, delightful to look at, and a pleasure to own.

The Wild Medicine Solution
Author: Guido Masé
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1620551519
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
Restoring the use of wild plants in daily life for vibrant physical, mental, and spiritual health • Explains how 3 classes of wild plants--aromatics, bitters, and tonics--are uniquely adapted to work with our physiology because we coevolved with them • Provides simple recipes to easily integrate these plants into meals as well as formulas for teas, spirits, and tinctures • Offers practical examples of plants in each of the 3 classes, from aromatic peppermint to bitter dandelion to tonic chocolate As people moved into cities and suburbs and embraced modern medicine and industrialized food, they lost their connection to nature, in particular to the plants with which humanity coevolved. These plants are essential components of our physiologies--tangible reminders of cross-kingdom signaling--and key not only to vibrant physical health and prevention of illness but also to soothing and awakening the troubled spirit. Blending traditional herbal medicine with history, mythology, clinical practice, and recent findings in physiology and biochemistry, herbalist Guido Masé explores the three classes of plants necessary for the healthy functioning of our bodies and minds--aromatics, bitters, and tonics. He explains how bitter plants ignite digestion, balance blood sugar, buffer toxicity, and improve metabolism; how tonic plants normalize the functions of our cells and nourish the immune system; and how aromatic plants relax tense organs, nerves, and muscles and stimulate sluggish systems, whether physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual. He reveals how wild plants regulate our heart variability rate and adjust the way DNA is read by our cells, controlling the self-destructive tendencies that lead to chronic inflammation or cancer. Offering examples of ancient and modern uses of wild plants in each of the 3 classes--from aromatic peppermint to bitter dandelion to tonic chocolate--Masé provides easy recipes to integrate them into meals as seasonings and as central ingredients in soups, stocks, salads, and grain dishes as well as including formulas for teas, spirits, and tinctures. Providing a framework for safe and effective use as well as new insights to enrich the practice of advanced herbalists, he shows how healing “wild plant deficiency syndrome”--that is, adding wild plants back into our diets--is vital not only to our health but also to our spiritual development.
