holistic womb healing tip:

aim to keep your womb warm by avoiding or limiting the amount of cold you put into your body and replacing it with warm foods + liquids. this increases blood flow to the uterus and aids in fertility! even if you're not trying to get pregnant, on a spiritual level, having a fertile womb allows you to naturally magnetize the things that you want in life with ease.

The same industry that profits from gender ideology, no matter how much destruction it causes, is the same industry that pushes

- vaccines

- psych drugs

- cold and flu treatments

- chemotherapy

- statins

- opiods

They are the leading cause of death worldwide. Their foundation is built on the premise that

- the body is wrong

- mother nature is wrong

- staying healthy without them is wrong

- your innate instinct and intuition is wrong

- your skills of critical thinking, research, observation, and experience are wrong

Allopathic medicine is one of the most patriarchal institutions to exist. Everything they do goes against the natural laws of living.

Natural medicine from Mother Earth is designed with our health in mind. After all, she made us. She has billions of years of experience in keeping life going.

How Humourism (and Chinese Traditional Medicine?) Can Help You Overcome Spiritual Darkness and Sinfulness

It is no question that the material world and the spiritual world work together to create and continue the universe. This is no less true when it comes to the human person. The things we do help or hurt our physical bodies as well as our souls.

I have a theory that understanding your Humours (and potentially Chinese medicine) is a great insight into why you struggle with the sins you do and how to lessen their pull upon you.

These are the Four Humours:

🍃 Blood 🩸Blood gives life to the body. It is associated with the Sanguine Type, which is enthusiastic, active, and social. Blood is made in the bones and cleaned in the liver. They have a warm and damp disposition. Its element is Air.

🔥 Yellow bile 🫖 Yellow Bile is produced in the gallbladder and found in or adjacent to solid bodily excretions. It is associated with the Choleric type, which is ambitious, decisive, aggressive, and short-tempered. Their disposition is hot and dry. Its element is Fire.

🗻 Black bile ⚫ Black Bile is associated is made in the liver and spleen as the result of blood cleaning. Its associated type is the melancholic, who are sorrowful, doubtful, thoughtful, steady, and creative. Their disposition is cold and dry. Its element is Earth.

💧 Phlegm 👃 Phlegm is considered any white or colorless fluid produced by the body, such as pus, mucus, saliva, sweat, or semen. It is produced by mucus membranes. Phlegmatic types are reserved, conscientious, and nervous. Their dispositions are cold and damp. Its element is Water.

Men and women are predisposed to different Humoruous conditions and dispositions. Women are more likely to have the cold dispositions and men are more likely to have the hot dispositions. The four humours are predisposed to struggle with certain sins. Men tend to struggle with anger and arrogance, while women tend to deal with despair and sloth, for example. This is not to say there are no women who deal with anger or no men who deal with sloth, but there are humps on the bell curve. It is not helpful to exclude a disposition because you think, "I'm a woman, I cannot be Choleric," or "I don't struggle with sloth, therefore I cannot be Phlegmatic."

This is a system that varies between people, time, and current situation. Your disposition can change though your life, especially at puberty, menopause, and major life changes or trauma (the death of a spouse, the birth of a child, or a far move).

Sanguine Type: The Sanguine virtues are joy and love, bringing people into the life of the Church, and being a life-giving force to those they encounter. They can be great speakers and charismatic preachers. This is generally considered the best disposition to have! But the sins the Sanguine types can fall into are a result of their sociability. They can be flitty, flaky, manipulative, and gossipy. They can calm the heat within them by eating cooling foods-- See Chinese medicine, and surrounding themselves with cool-headed and stable influences, such as Phlegmatic Types. Choleric Types can bring out the best and worst in them.

Choleric Type: The Choleric Type virtues are ambition, decisiveness, quick thinking, wittiness, and confidence. These types make good preachers and theologians. The sins these types can fall into are obvious-- anger, aggression, and pride out the wazoo. These types also benefit from eating cooling foods, drinking lots of water, and taking cold showers or baths. They should be around cooling, stable influences, such as Melancholic types. Choleric types should be careful around Phlegmatics, as they are prone to be pushy, and can pressure a Phlegmatic into sin, or for their own purposes.

Melancholic Type: The Melancholic virtues are stability, steadiness, and thoughtfulness. They make great contemplative theologians and should even be considered highly for the Monastic life. However, they can fall into depression, despair, doubt, faithlessness, and laziness. Melancholic people should eat hydrating, hot foods, should take regular cardiovascular exercise, and hot showers or baths. They should hang around lively, hot-natured people, such as Sanguines or Cholerics.

Phlegmatic Type: The Phlegmatic type virtues are conscientiousness, kindness, and simplicity. They are good people. Their sins tend to be anxiety, people-pleasing, insecurity, and they can fall into habits of trying to please the world. They should take hot and dry foods, heat therapies, caffeine, and avoid baths. Try dry-brushing and avoid thick lotion or heavy oils. Phlegmatic types may want to avoid dairy or gluten. These types want to keep the company of confident people who lift them up, and steady individuals who will stand up for them. They get along well with Cholerics, but they must be careful that they don't let this type walk all over them or push them into something they're not comfortable with.

Things like Humourism and Chinese medicine are often looked upon with suspicion in many Christian circles. People think it's pagan, sorcery, augury, or some other such pharmakeia, but Humourism is no more pagan than mathematics. The Church Fathers supported its use, as did those Orthodox who came after them. Chinese medicine does, unfortunately, have some of the baggage of spiritualism (especially Gnosticism), but there are ways that some practitioners understand it where it is compatible with Orthodoxy. Just as some Hunourists thought your liver was hunted if you were Melancholic, there are some CTM practitioners who think something similar.

If you correct imbalanced Humours, you can correct the sinfulness that comes from them, and prayer, fasting, and almsgiving will become easier.

I find CTM useful because it offers simple solutions to change our underlying habits with dietary changes mostly. I should make more of a post about this later.

But after I went home and hopped on the internet, I understood.

🥑 Healing With Avocado 🤔

[evermoortarot]

I really wish I wouldn’t get told that a decision I make is wrong due to common beliefs that have not been deeply researched.

I recently went on a mostly fruit diet with no animal products because I want to heal my rosacea, which I discovered is linked to many autoimmune diseases, one of the most prevalent in my family is type 2 diabetes.

Upon doing research about skin problems and why they manifest, I came across information about the kidneys and poor filtration through the liver which leads to waste being taken out on the skin if your organs are not working together to remove the waste normally.

I did my research to understand what could work to finally heal my rosacea since it is so deeply misunderstood and judged. All my life I’ve been criticized because of it until I got older and stopped caring so much. But more than just aesthetic purposes, I want to heal my body from the inside out and it causes so much anger for me at times when I open up about these choices I’m making to better myself and I get told I’m not consuming enough protein or that I need to eat meat or eggs or whatever it may be that common media shares.

Our biology closely resembles frugivores, not carnivores. The only way we “safely” consume meat and animal products is by cooking, pasteurizing, or doing some sort of process to make it edible. That, to me, doesn’t make any sense. We get told to eat fruits and vegetables when we’re sick because they heal so wouldn’t it make sense to consume food we know to be healing most of the time?

How can we use it as medicine and then turn around and say “oh you can’t eat too much fruit because of the sugar” as if simple fruit sugar is equivalent to processed refined sugar… also, all our cells need sugar. Our body runs on glucose… which is sugar. Literally everything we consume gets transformed into glucose. Insulin gets released into the bloodstream to help transport glucose to our organs so we have energy and can function. So even foods that are low in sugar get turned into glucose… which again, is sugar. Processed sugar, like any processed food, is bad for you. It is not the same as eating raw fruit - the food the Earth created for us to consume. (Is it really that surprising that the food we can naturally consume is the most healing food for us? It’s almost as if our biology, which resembles frugivores in nature, is made for the consumptions of fruits. Amazing.)

This whole idea that protein is everything was not emphasized until the last 1000 years or so. Protein was not emphasized as the most important source of sustenance for all time. Fruits and vegetables were. There are entire cultures that thrive off of fruits and vegetables and do not struggle with the same level of disease as we do.

It’s so annoying that veganism or any sort of diet with a strong focus on fruits and vegetables gets criticized so much. I’m not pushing my choices on anyone and I wish their choices didn’t get pushed on me, especially coming from people who are currently struggling with health issues and are trying multiple protocols that are not working. It doesn’t make sense to take advice from someone else who is trying to figure it out and is not succeeding yet I’m being criticized personally for taking advice from sources who have healed themselves and others.

No one will know my body better than me. I have tried to get assistance from doctors and dermatologists. None of them have helped. Some have even made things worse by giving me medications that suppressed my symptoms for a few weeks only for them to come back stronger and then I got prescribed a more intense medication with tons of side effects. If I cannot trust in myself and intuitively listen to my body, then I will never heal. My body is my own. My choices are my own. Feel free to judge them when I am not around but keep your negativity to yourself. I’ve only being doing this for two days and I feel so much better, my digestion is better, and my rosacea is not flaring up. That cannot be a coincidence. Please stop listening to mass media and do your own research to heal your body and mind.
