Natural
organic skin care
We
all know “ you are what you eat,” but it is also important to nourish your body
from the outside. Everything we put in
and on our Bodies must be safe and nutritious!
Our skin is the largest of our organs and has several different
functions to keep our bodies healthy and vital.
·
Your skin protects
your immune system from bacteria and
disease
·
it helps to
regulate your body’s temperature
· it keeps your
essential body fluids (blood, water and lymph) from evaporating
·
protects body
tissues and organs against injuries
·
the nerves in
your skin also help your brain respond to sensations of hot and cold and tells
you that your body has been touched
·
it protects you
from wind and absorbs beautiful sunlight
·
and most
important of all in our times, it protects you from environmental pollution,
toxins and free radicals!
Nothing is so attractive as radiant, clear, fresh
skin. The color, texture and softness of it are the most important elements of
beauty. Because we absorb not just nutrients though our skin, in fact since our
skin absorbs over 50% of what is placed on it, we should take every precaution
necessary to reduce the risk that toxins will enter our body systems.

healing ingredients to cleanse, moisturize and nourish, leaving the skin fresh,
clear and revitalized are a perfect fit. Powerful antioxidants neutralize free
radicals, vitamins and minerals feed your our body from the outside which

Yoga
Yoga
is an ancient Indian science. It was first mentioned in connection with
Ayurveda in the almost 5000 years old writing, the “Vedas“. Yoga“ is a Sanskrit word and is often
translated as “union“ or “connection“ – it is an ancient practice of
self-discovery, uniting the body, mind and spirit to find peace and
contentment.
The
benefits of a regular yoga practice are vast. From the reduction of stress to
strengthening of the muscles, improvement of posture and the immune system as
well as teaching us more awareness of ourselves,. With Yoga we learn to breathe
better, move more consciously and relax more deeply!
Hatha-Yoga
( the physical types of yoga)
Ha
means „sun“, Tha means „moon“. The mixture and balance of these two opposing
energy qualities are the essence of physical yoga. A balance of Ha and Tha
results in a harmonious whole. Life-force is called prana in yoga. Asanas
(precise physical postures) and pranayama (breathing techniques) cleanse the
nadis, (the energetic channels of the body).Focus on a complete and steady
breath encourage the energy (prana) to move freely and blockages are cleared.
The accumulation of more prana gives us a clear peaceful mind, a healthy body
and opens up our soul for the cosmic loving energy.
Practising
yoga helps us to reach a serene state of mind. When the mind is clear of
tension and worry, concentration improves, awareness increases; we are able to
focus better and make better decisions. We develop the ability to remain calm
in difficult moment.
Massage or “the Art of Touch”
Massage is one of the oldest healing traditions. Many different
cultures – including the Ancient Greeks, Egyptians, Indians, Japanese and
Chinese – were convinced of the therapeutic properties of massage and used it
to treat a variety of conditions or just to maintain wellbeing.
One of the immediate benefits of massage is a feeling of deep
relaxation and an improvement of the overall wellbeing.
Some of the physical benefits of massage are:
·

of muscle tension, blockages and stress hormones

The appreciation for the power of touch
Massage is an intensive experience physically and emotionally and
each of the therapists/healers brings their unique touch into the treatment,
which makes every massage an adventure.
Some of the most popular ancient healing art of massage are:
Thai Massage, Balinese Massage, Ayurveda, Acupressure,
Reflexology, Aroma Massage and Lomi Lomi.
Thai Massage
Originating from a North Indian doctor “Jivaka Kumar Bhaccha” who
is still being honored in Thailand as the father of medicine, a fountain of
knowledge in the areas of herbal therapy, mineral therapy and physical therapy,
contemporary to the Buddha. His teachings spread to Thailand with the
advent of Buddhism. Dr. Jivaka Kumar Bhaccha is the founder of Nuad Phaen Boran
(Traditional Thai massage), becoming thus the Teacher of all Nuad
practitioners. This holistic massage style combines yoga stretches,
acupressure, rhythmic massage and gentle twisting to relieve muscle- and joint
tension and increase flexibility and free-flowing energy. The bodywork is often
performed on the floor and the client wears comfortable clothes that allow for
movement.
Traditionally there are two main styles of Thai Massage: Northern
(Chiang-Mai) and Southern (Bangkok) style. The Chiang-Mai style is considered
gentler and has become popular in the western countries as the Bangkok style is
faster and sometimes more intense but widespread in Thailand.
Thai Massage is much more than what is typically considered massage
in the West! The true practice of the art of healing in traditional “Nuad
Boran” is the compassionate intent of the healer. The Buddhist spiritual
practices associated with Thai Massage cultivate humility, awareness, and
concentration in the healer designed to bring the practitioner to a deeper
level of awareness and loving kindness.

Traditional Balinese Massage
Bali, the island of the gods: The Balinese
live equally in two worlds: the seen or conscious world called sekala,
and the unseen or spiritual world, called niskala. Both of these
elements are addressed in their healing techniques. The rich Balinese culture
includes a wealth of information on herbal remedies, massage and energy
healing. All of this ancient wisdom we find in the Traditional Balinese
Massage.
A gentle massage of slow, long flowing strokes, skin rolling and
pressure point application is used in this deeply relaxing massage to relieve stress, tension and improve
circulation. The use of super-nourishing virgin coconut oil suitable for all
skin types and the help of aromatic essential oils gets absorbed through the
skin and carried around the body to stimulate our immune system and energy
flow.

Ayurveda
Has been practiced for over 5,000 years and originates from india.
The “mother of all healing therapies“ is considered to be the basis for all
natural medicine. „Ayur” means „life“ and „Veda” means “knowledge” - Ayurveda
provides the knowledge needed to live a long, healthy and fulfilling life. The
body is considered to be the “temple of the soul”and it’s wellbeing is
essential for mental growth and self-development.
Ayurveda defines three different energies, the so-called Doshas:
Vata(ether&air), Pitta(fire&water), Kapha(earth&water).
The key to well-being is keeping these three energies in balance
and at one with the five elements of creation (earth, fire, sky, water and air).
Ayurveda uses almost all healing modalities including yoga,
aroma therapy, meditation, herbalism, nutrition, astrology and so on in
treating a patient holistically. Acupressure
