My HealtH BiBle 1

This is the most important food for our bodies. Can we live without
air? How many seconds, minutes? Not very long!
In India, there are many yogis (a yogi is somebody who practices
yoga, sometimes different kinds of yoga, and respiration techniques).
Some yogis live in caves and when they decide to do so, they do not
eat food. Well, what we normally call food; they live from the air.
They eat air, they drink air, they feed their bodies with air. What is
interesting about this is that the body does not get old as it normally
does by eating food. This is because there are no catabolic processes
inside the body. The body does not break anything down. There is no
food to be broken down. The body does not have to build anything
up! These processes of building up and breaking down require a lot
of energy and cause aging and wear. Air is the purest stuff we can give
our body. Isn’t this amazing?

The Point of the Essence
The Center of Our Being, The Hara

In the embryology lessons during my Natural Medicine Naturopathy
study, my teacher explained about the forming of the fetus. He showed
us where and when a fetus starts to develop. He showed where cells
began to form in the body in order to form the tissues required for
the body.
Just below the navel is where the fetus originates. The first tissues
start to come out at this point. These tissues are those of the lungs
and the large intestine. (No wonder these two are the first ones. The
lungs and the large intestine are the most important tissues related to
the immune function of the body.)
This point below the navel is the root of our body. When the fetus
is complete and all the tissues and organs are formed, this point under
the navel disappears. However, this point disappears only physically….
