Some of these causes of pain can be prevented, while others like scoliosis is often present at birth.

Invigorate Your Home With Essential Oil Diffusion
By Maria Margaret Low

You can create a sense of well-being and invigorate your home with a healthy atmosphere through diffusing essential oils. Choose the oil to diffuse based on your health conditions, mood or the time of the day or year. Diffusing essential oils is a perfect way to help you relieve tension, dispel odors and create an atmosphere of peace and harmony. Relax after a long day’s work with the wonderful scent of an essential oil.

Steam and heat diffusion have been around for millennia. Many native people have used hot rocks from open fires to create a primitive form of steam diffusion. Water that has been boiled or heated can be steeped with herbs or medicinal substances. This therapeutic water can be poured directly on the hot rocks, resulting in steam that can be inhaled for alleviating lung conditions, sinus conditions and other health conditions. The steam can be concentrated by placing a towel over the head of the person using the treatment or trapping the steam in an enclosure such as a sauna.

The lipid-soluble structure of essential oils and the fact that they have a protein-like structure similar to human cells and tissues makes them even more compatible with human tissue. European scientists have found that essential oils can work as natural chelators, bonding to metallic and chemicals ferrying them out of the body.

Diffusing essential oils can help to keep you and your family healthy this winter. When diffused, essential oils have been reported to improve immune health and create a feeling of balance and well-being. Research also shows that diffusion of certain oils may reduce bacteria, fungus and mold in indoor environments. Create a healthy home for your family with essential oils!

In order to create optimal health one must choose optimal healthy foods. Makes sense right? A side note: I didn’t know for the first thirty (30) years of my life. So, what are optimal healthy foods?

Optimal healthy foods from my thirty (30) study of macrobiotics are plant foods that have sustained the continued evolution of animals for over 3.2 billion years culminating in grain. As one of the lines in my limerick says, “Use your brain eat grain.”

Order and structure over billions of years, selecting and eating biologically correct foods have given modern man (an animal) a fantastic, wonderful body and mind. We have to understand this in order to comprehend just what foods are necessary for the continued survival of this beautiful creature we call man and/or woman. The answer is quite simple. GRAIN. Currently grain is the primary food of mankind on this planet and is the food for re-structuring our body and mind. Of course, I’m assuming here that most of us (myself include) have lost our way and cannot understand how our bodies and mind have gone off the track with processed foods, especially white sugar and white flour and white creamy foods like ice cream and dairy and cheese. I’m so grateful for Michio Kushi for bringing this teaching to the United States.

In my way of thinking from the evolution of plant and animals I have discovered that eating everyday a recapitulation of the 3.2 billion year evolution of plants is the food for optimal health. It’s the food mother nature has provided for us. It is very orderly and well structured as one can obviously see in the farmer’s fields: grain, vegetables, beans, seeds and nuts, giving humanity endless sources of food! Contrast that to any man made manufactured or processed food and see chaos and ill-defined structure. Think a twink: lifeless, soft and mushy.

It is well worth repeating: You will achieve optimal health when you learn how to select or choose the foods you need for optimal health. To find out more go to any macrobiotic book, lecture, cooking class or dinner. And one more thing…..HAVE FUN…enjoy the trip to optimal health.
