Spagyria, sometimes also called quintessence

The word spagyry is said to have been coined by the charismatic Theophrastus Aureolus Bombast von Hehenheim, or as he is known to us under the name Paracelsus (Einsiedeln 1493- Salzburg 1541). The word comes from Greek; it is composed of two Greek terms: spao and agheiro, which can also be translated by the Latin terms solve et coagula.

Endocannabinoid system

"The endocannabinoid system is one of the oldest biological systems on earth. In the human body and all vertebrates, it acts as a kind of SOS or information SUPERSYSTEM and is essentially an umbrella protection against anything that can happen to us. " People have been using cannabis for thousands of years and we knew that it stimulates appetite, reduces nausea, calms epileptic seizures, stops asthma attacks, improves mood; Galen treated with it, Chinese surgeons used it as an anesthetic and painkiller.

What is spagyria

Eastern approaches such as Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Unani, Tibetan medicine, etc. are completely legitimate and serve very well as an alternative to the current mechanistic system established by allopathic medicine. But the question arises, don't we in the West have something of our own? Let us immediately remember our rich herbal tradition, in which we can find pieces of an ancient civilization.

Hormonal imbalance, nervousness and headaches

Hormonsko neravnovesje V tokratnem članku se bom dotaknila ženske in nekaj rešitev za hormonsko neravnovesje in težave, za živčnost ter migrenske glavobole. Včasih to doživljamo kar vse naenkrat pred kakšno menstruacijo ali izredno stresnim dogodkom. Lahko bi trdila, da ima skoraj vsaka ženska hormonska neravnovesja v nekem obdobju v življenju.

A recurring disease

Bolezen kot izkušnja Bolezen je vedno izkušnja. In naše lastne izkušnje so tiste, ki nam ostanejo globoko v spominu in se zato hitreje učimo. V svojem življenju sem se naučila, da je smiselno vsako izkušnjo imeti za točno to, izkušnjo. Ne tragedijo, ne komedijo, ampak dragoceno izkušnjo, ki mi omogoča, da se dvignem iz svoje ignorance (ne-vedeti) in nezavedanja. Res je včasih izkušnja boleča in dolgo trajajoča preden dojameš, kaj je tvoja lekcija. Tako je vedno. Še posebej pri zdravju. Dokler ne...
