I can remember toting around a huge fish tackle box full of remedies many years ago; there were just so many fun herbs that I did not want to live without. As I began to do more day hiking, I realized that I needed to pare down my herbal first aid kit. Let me share with you the 5 things that I always carry:

1.) Lavender Essential Oil is available at any well stocked health food store. It is one of the few essential oils that you would use without diluting. It is highly anti-viral, and can be applied below the nose and around the neck to avoid catching a cold or flu while flying. Here are some other ways that Lavender EO can be used:

-For any type of burn, sunburn, or scald it works much like aloe; removes the pain from stings and bug bites; is anti-bacterial and can be used on cuts and scrapes; stops painful muscle spasms, helps relax tense muscles; can help you go to sleep in a strange place; can relieve stress when you are in new situations; can be used in a hot bath at the onset of a cold to release exterior pathogens much like echinacea does; can be applied to the temples to relieve a headache.

2.) Rescue Remedy is a Bach flower essence remedy that can be purchased at any health food store. It is essential in any crisis situation, for trauma, or for shock. It calms those who are overwhelmed or suffering with an anxiety attack. It is gentle enough to use with children and animals.

3.) The first rule of basic survival is that you cannot live without water. GSE, or Grape Seed Extract, can be added (just a few drops) when you are traveling overseas, or are leery of the drinking water. Contaminated water is one of the leading causes of illness for travelers. It’s best to resort to bottled water, but if none is available and there is no way to boil water, GSE will kill bacteria, such as E. coli, cholera and salmonella. Most well-stocked health food stores will have a small bottle of GSE available.

4.) Charcoal capsules are also available at health food stores. Charcoal will absorb bacteria and viruses in the gut. It can be used preventative if you fear that you have been exposed to a bug, or on the onset of digestive upsets. It is invaluable in cases of food poisoning.

5.) Curing Pills formula is a Chinese stomach formula used to treat any type of digestive upset including over-eating, bloating, nausea, hangover, and diarrhea. They are a cure all for any digestive disorder and will restore the digestive system after a stomach virus. They are non-toxic and can be taken by children.

There are obviously many, many more valuable herbal concoctions, but if you like to travel lite, these few remedies will take care of most health problems that you will be faced with.

Hari Narayana Gopalam Hari Narayana Govindam

Chant the mantra as follows:

“Hari Narayana Gopalam Hari Narayana Govindam

Hari Narayana Gopalam Hari Narayana Govindam

Gopalam Govindam

Gopalam Govindam – hey”

Hey activates the throat chakra.

Power is within you!

Hari Narayan has an important meaning. There is always a power within you. Because we are ruled by our mind, we don’t believe we have great power inside us. We think, ‘I don’t know I have this power’. We also believe, ‘I am not powerful’, even if others say that. Why? Because, we are in darkness as we are ruled by our mind. This mantra activates that supernatural power inside us.

Hari Narayana

How does it remove darkness and bring the power? It purifies and cleanses the mind. Then the mind is no more in existence. Why should we do it? To accomplish great things in life, we need a great goal in life. To achieve your goal, we need this mantra. The goal need not be a spiritual one. It could be as material as, ‘I want to be successful in my businesses. For throat chakra – Hari Narayana mantra will help, as Ha is the Bija mantra for throat.

Gopalam

Whatever you earn, can be stabilized with the help of Gopalam. When you think that whatever money you make is not enough, then Gopalam can help you. Pa (in Gopalam) means a friend in need. When I need help, he will come to me. Thus Gopalam is ready to help me when I am in need.

Govindam

This mantra will arrest all evils. Dhum in Govindam is destroyer of karma. We often remark, because of our karma we couldn’t achieve something in life. Dhum can remove that karma. Vallabam Gajananam Yeka Thandham mantra also has Dhum in it. Govindam can be used for mitigation of suffering from black magic, dark entities and Evil eye (while doing dhirusti – removing evil eye, we could chant this mantra).

How did Krishna get the name Govindam? When it was raining cats and dogs, Lord Krishna protected the entire village people by lifting the Govardanam hills above his head and held it as a shelter for all.

Effects of the Mantra

Nothing is impossible for divinity. Our divine nature should open up. To remove the mental agony, chant this mantra. You can come out of any difficulty. However big the problem is, you can come out of it with the help of this mantra.

Finding a solution for a long standing problem – a Case History

Vijayalakshmi

My grandson had some problem right from his birth, a problem that couldn’t be diagnosed for last six months. We chanted Bach Flower Remedy Cerato. Soon after, Naran asked us to chant this mantra. Immediately the doctors diagnosed and they asked us to bring a remedy from abroad. Now my grandson is getting better.

Naran S. Balakumar

How this mantra has worked in this situation? Last six months the problem could not be diagnosed. How much sufferings the parents as well as the child would have gone through. It just points whatever amount of problem one may have, can be solved with this mantra.

The mental agony you have gone through nobody can help you. Only divine can help you. But, it needs a call from you. We should be ready to receive the divine help. Our hearts should be opened for divinity, for it to help us. Chant this mantra. Divine will solve the problem for you.

Problem is 1% and the rest of 99% is only in mind. If we come out of that 99%, then the problem will not be there.

Vallabam Gajaananam Yeka Thandham

It is a very powerful mantra. Especially it works on the hips, for example when you are standing for a long time your hip will pain. You will find plenty of time to do any task. Time will be at your disposal. Physically it helps to handle skin related problems.

A single tusker Elephant!

How time is available at your disposal? Why Gajananam (Lord Vinayaga) was called Eka Thandham (an elephant with one tusker)? When Vyasa wanted to write Mahabharata he was searching for somebody who can put it in paper as fast as he dictates. The concerned person should understand the subject as well, without stopping the dictation by interfering it. He should understand and never ask to repeat again what was already said (Vallapam).

Vinayaga was the only person who offered to do the job. In the midst of writing the pen got broke. Imagine how much he would have written by then! He couldn’t find another writing pen nearby. Therefore, he broken one of his tuskers and used it as a pen.

Opening up to the divine time

This mantra makes a person to value time.

‘Time didn’t come yet for our daughter to get married’, is the expression of some parents. There is always a difference between our time and divine time. We don’t know it. Therefore, we become impatient. We start believing in what the astrologer says. We approach them to find out when the time will come for us. To open up to the divine time chant this mantra.

Waiting for a Good Result

“I have applied for the job. Yet I haven’t received a call for the job interview. I don’t know when it will come for me!” Wherever you think time has to come, think and chant this mantra.

I have created this mantra based on Lum and Vum bija mantras.

I have learned one important thing about treating children with natural remedies: you don’t want to fight them on taking nasty tasting remedies. While you may be bigger than the kid, and stronger than the kid, the kid will always win this fight.

Luckily, there are easy ways to apply herbal remedies topically and in their baths. Here are some of my favorite strategies with children:

Colds and Flu Treated Safely in Children:

• Lavender essential oils in the bath 10 drops. Dispels Wind-Heat pathogens and is diaphoretic (opens the pores, lowers fevers, allows perspiration, and encourages the pathogen to disperse). Lavender will also help them sleep.
• 10 drops of peppermint oil diluted in one T. olive oil in the bath. Also a diaphoretic as above, and improves breathing.
• Catnip leaf infusion lowers very high fevers, soothes digestive issues, and helps to calm child.
• More bubble baths for colds and flus…

Respiratory Issues for Children:

• Elder flower infusion in the bath lowers fevers, and clears congestion.
• Mullein leaf infusion helps to clear up phlegm and sinus drainage.
• More natural remedies for children’s respiratory issues…

Calming and Sleep Inducing for Kids:

• Skullcap infusion in the bath will calm children and help them sleep.
• Rescue Remedy can help to calm a hysterical child, a child who has been injured, or a child who cannot stop crying. It can be found at any health food store.
• Lavender essential oil as mentioned above.
• More calming remedies for children…

Stomach Upsets in Kids:

• Fennel seed helps with gas pains and for stomach upset due to eating junk food or greasy foods.
• Marshmallow root soothes inflammation along the entire digestive track and the powdered herb can be mixed in to oatmeal without any affect on the flavor.
• More herbal remedies for kid’s digestive issues…

As you can see, most herbs for kids can be applied as a bath; the dermal layer actually absorbs essential oils and other active constituents where and they are delivered to the bloodstream. Using herbal medicine in this way can be safer and easier than herbal pills or teas. Additionally, parents are happy to avoid anti-biotics, steroids, and other pharmaceuticals when caring for their children.

I was an herbalist-in-training when my children were infants, and I often tease them that they were lucky to have survived their childhood and my herbal experiments; these attempts at herbal humor are not that well received, as my grown children still have memories of nasty tasting decoctions they had to drink, funny smelling rubs they would have to wear, and the intrusion of drum-beating wild-haired herbalist gathering around the fire at our herb farm some weekends.

My husband and I do not have grand kids yet, but with 4 grown children, the odds are good that they will arrive in the near future. Here is what my herbal baby baskets will be filled with:

• Rescue Remedy – A Bach Remedy for trauma, this may be helpful during the delivery first. Use to calm baby by simply add a few drops to their bathwater.
• Calendula Bum Balm – I still make this in small batches and offer it for sale at my community acupuncture clinic, but it is made with calendula flower sun infused in olive oil, beeswax, tea tree oil, and lavender oil. It is made into a salve.  I first made this recipe 21 years ago when my son was born and suffered with diaper rash.
• Arrowroot powder – Talk powder is so toxic for little babies, so I prepare a blend of arrowroot powder, rose petals powdered, and lavender flowers powdered; the blend is soothing to the skin, healing for rashes and inflamed skin, and calming for the child.
• Lavender Essential Oil – Very common remedy that can be found at any health food store, a few drops added to the babies bathwater can be calming,  healing for the skin, and can even be used to address a cold as it is highly anti-viral. (Most essential oils have to be diluted before using, but lavender is an exception).
• Bulk yellow dock root – You can make a decoction of this gentle herb if a baby suffers from any type of rash, skin break outs, or from jaundice. I simply add the strained and cooled decoction to a daily bath. Use about 1 tablespoon herb to 2 cups of water for preparation.

Luckily, our kids are still open to natural remedies despite their childhood memories; their sacrifices have resulted in many learned strategies that do not require torchering small children to get them to take their medicine. In my next blog, I will share home-remedies for children.

Cold and Flu Remedy

This is my personal remedy which works wonders for me.

At the first signs of a cold, flu or even a cold sore or herpes outbreak take 4 – 500 mgs of L-Lysine with a tall glass of room temperature water then 1 – 500 mgs of L-Lysine every hour with a tall glass of room termperature water for one day. If there are any remaining symptoms the following day, repeat regime for one more day. Do not let your feet touch the cold floor even to go to the bathroom. Wear slippers, keep those tootsies warm if you are getting sick.

Years ago I had a cold sore coming on and a pharmacist recommended this regime and it stopped the cold sore in its tracks. I later found out that the flu and colds were in the same family of viruses as cold sores so tried it and haven’t had a cold or flu since I began taking this at the onset of any symptoms.

I’m not making any promises, just sharing what has worked so well for me, my family and friends.

L-Lysine is an Amino Acid  and can be purchased at any drugstore and most grocery stores in the vitamins and supplements section.

(I am not a medical doctor and you should check with your doctor before beginning taking any supplements. I do not know what the dosages might be for children.)

It’s another Vitamin Shoppe product as pill #2 in my White Box of remedies. Ingestion prompted by the macular degeneration of my mother’s retinas, Lutein is an essential component in the White Box. The macula is the part of the retina, the direct center, with the highest concentration of optical nerve fibers. Should the macula deteriorate, you lose central vision and only retain peripheral vision: somewhat like the reverse of tunnel vision, except, you can’t see the tunnel–only around it.

FloraGLO Lutein

With the addition of Lutein in your regimen, you will assure your optical health for decades.

5. How my thighs stopping me from changing my profession:

http://healbymindbodymessages.wordpress.com/2009/12/25/deviating-from-ancestral-business/

This is with regard to my sister in law who was suffering from a headache for a week or more especially the last couple of days. Medication did not help her one bit and she ultimately had to go to the hospital to check her BP, etc.  It was all normal and she continued taking pain killers.  None of that helped.

I told her when she called me from Coimbatore to call Naran and talk to him – to simply tell him what was on her mind.  She had lost her brother just a few days ago. I also told her to go ahead and talk, though she had never met him, and even if she did not have faith in Flower Therapy.

This was around 9 p.m. and when I did not hear from her after that call, I presumed the poor thing had gone to bed with her headache.  She called me early the next morning and said, “I cannot believe it!  I spoke to Naran and only briefly explained the issues.  He told me to chant the names of 2 flowers.  I did and I realized to my amazement that the headache had vanished with just 3 repetitions of those divine flowers!” 

The next morning when she felt the headache starting to set in, she again chanted the names and it went off.  She also mentioned how she had had a good nights sleep after so many days and that too without sleeping pills which the doctor had prescribed for the trauma she was undergoing. 

 She told me I have to fix an appointment in a weeks’ time as she wants to meet Naran.  

– Sneha

The Bach Flower Remedies chanted were Agrimony and White Chestnut. Since she said that she had continuous headache, White Chestnut was suggested. Why Agrimony is prescribed in headaches? Headaches are normally the physical expression of inner turmoil, which indicates Agrimony. The person with inner turmoil will say I want to be peaceful. This is what she said, when she spoke to me.

– Naran

Infatuation is excess of un-channelled energy.  This Mudra helps to prevent misconduct between male and female.

(Desire and resistance work in opposite directions)

Any issues in thighs points to transition in our lives.

A patient had pain from thigh to knee on the left side of his body for nearly three months. Neuron medicines had no effect on the pain. I asked him whether he is planning to change to different business, from the traditional profession he is doing currently – selling stationery.

He said, “Yes. I am also confused about my decision. My wife says that with the earnings from our traditional business alone, my father could perform the marriage of his three daughters. Why should I leave that? Though I want to do a different business, my wife’s words put a brake to my action”.

I told him that his body also says so, “Why do you want to change to a new profession? Keep your hand on the left knee and affirm that I will continue to do my father’s business”. He did. And to his surprise his pain went off while he was affirming!

This is the first of a 10 segment series called “the White Box”, which is the box where I store my 10 most precious homeopathic elements. The White Box is the [as I see it] cure for common cold and for that endless flu that seems to go on and on for weeks. I have given a 3-day supply to my friend Mark, and it has kicked the cold right out of him. The first system in your body that needs to remain hyper-operational is the urinary tract, to flush and to purify all the liquids removing toxins.

Nature's Bounty Triple Cranberry

Triple strength cranberry, just one pill nightly, purifies and releases the toxins from your urinary system.

And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. 11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. 12 And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.” 13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, 14 “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among those with whom he is pleased!” – Luke 2: 10-14

So to begin this I’m going to go ahead and say yes it is the Christmas season and yes I am a Christian. With those two things in mind I am guessing you have some presuppositions about what I’m going to talk about. You are thinking, “If I continue reading I will most likely get a guilt trip about how I don’t go to Church enough and how I spent way too much on my family for Christmas.” Well, my intentions are directed towards a different subject matter than those. My intentions are for you to see why this small child in Bethlehem makes this Christmas season not abut gifts and Church attendance; but more about a “condition” we have and why this small baby is the remedy.

Every year December 25 is the date when Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. Now to someone who is not a Christian this probably seems like an odd or foolish tradition so I will try to unpack the reason for the season. This condition I spoke of earlier is a condition known as sin. We as humans are living in a world that chooses ourselves over God. And this sin separates us from God. He is holy and without blemish. The punishment for sin is death and an eternity apart from God. So this is our condition. This is our position with God. However, this is where Christmas comes in. On that day 2000 years ago a baby was born in a manger, but what was so special about him? this was the prophesied Messiah. This is why Christians get excited because before Christ we had to sacrifice animals to atone for our sin. But as it says in Philippians,

Christ did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the form of a servant , being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. Philippians 2:6-8

This death on a cross is our remedy. All of our sins were poured out on Jesus when he died on the cross. So the second person of the Trinity came down out of heaven and became a lowly babe in a manger! Think of that drastic change. He went from being exalted as Most High God to a humble servant of man. He came not to be served but to serve, only then to die in one of the most painful deaths possible all because he wants to redeem us. Only if we could understand. So Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus because without him we wouldn’t have salvation! Because of him we can spend eternity in heaven. So Christ is our hope and our treasure without him Christmas WOULD just be about gifts. So when you are spending time with your family this Christmas remember that the little baby in a manger we sing about took the wrath of God undeserving. He is to be forever Glorified as LORD.

Persephone, daughter of Zeus and Demeter, yearns for love and waits for the day when she will be struck by the arrow of Eros, god of love. When Zeus attempts to send Eros to Persephone, Demeter insists that Persephone be left alone. An arrow is shot but instead of hitting Persephone, it reaches Hades, god of the underworld.As a result, Hades abducts Persephone and brings her to his home. At first, Persephone is angry that Hades abducted her but she soon grows to love him.

Meanwhile, Persephone’s absence devastates Demeter and the human world feels the effects of her pain. Flowers wilt, leaves fall off the trees and cold descends upon the land. Concerned that Demeter’s sadness will devastate life on Earth, Zeus sends Hermes to negotiate Persephone’s return. Hades agrees to return Persephone but feeds her the seeds of a pomegranate fruit before she departs. Persephone eats four seeds, meaning that she will have to return to Hades for four months of each year. Demeter rejoices at Persephone’s return, but is sad each time she leaves, causing winter.

The pomegranate fruit has been the subject of growth and re-birth for over a thousand years. Just recently homeopathic (and some osteopathic doctors) are realizing the immune boosting and anti-aging properties of the fruit. Combined with the a’cai, and red wine extract, Pomology Anti-Aging is an amazing anti-oxidant combination to reverse the effects of aging.

Anti-Aging Formula with Reservatrol

Pomology is a way to combat the effects of:
