The body’s self-healing powers can be assisted greatly by proper skin care. Every day brush the skin vigorously until it turns a rosy pink colour. Afterwards apply a good oil, for example St John’s wort oil or another skin care oil containing this ingredient. If these are unobtainable, you can use a small amount of a good grade of unrefined olive oil. It suffices to apply the oil lightly every second or every third day.

You should also take care so as to avoid cold feet. If they do get cold, take warm foot baths, massage the feet or help to warm them up by other means. Another important body function that should be given close attention is regular bowel movement. In cases of constipation, take a tablespoon of freshly ground linseed mornings and evenings. For really persistent constipation use Lino-force, a simple and reliable natural laxative. On the other hand, diarrhoea is not a good thing either, since it drains the body of energy. Two of the simplest remedies for diarrhoea are raw, dry oat flakes or Tormentavena. The latter has tormentil as its principal ingredient, with oat juice (Avena sativa) added for a beneficial effect on the nerves. Intestinal disturbances and fermentations can often be relieved and prevented by thorough mastication of the food we eat. So remember to eat slowly and to chew your food properly so that it becomes well mixed with saliva. This is absolutely essential for good health.
