Chinese Herbs for Bacterial/ Viral Infections Illness

11/15/2017

 
Did you know that Chinese Herbs have anti-viral, anti- bacterial properties? 
Why not give them a try instead of going righto to antiobiotics? 

Or, even if you do, they can increase the spectrum of the antibiotics!
 I almost never take them. I hope that when I need them, they will work. 

I had one of my Chinese Herbology Teachers tell us that we should try to use them on ourselves, and I have. 
My daughter and I, rarely take antibiotics. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate their purpose, but I want them to work when I need them. It has become an increasing problem that bacteria are getting stronger and resistant to antibiotics. 

Also, when an herbalist, like me, makes you a formula, we can customize it YOU. That's what we do in Chinese medicine, we consider your unique body type and constitution, and adjust the herbs for you.

Roadblocks

 Do you ever feel like life is just going along fine and then...things just STOP Or maybe something is off, but you keep going, and then suddenly, it feels like everything grinds to screeching halt.
What do you do then?
-How do we navigate when life things get stuck?
-Movement always helps, it literally does help us get unstuck. Take a walk, do your favorite activity, hiking, zumba, whatever it may be. Excercise increases serotonin. 
-Talk to someone, to sort out your thoughts.
-There are many great Meditation  (I can you with that) techniques. 
Perhaps it’s time to make a change. Maybe it’s one you’ve known you should make for a while. OR, maybe there's something you need to see about yourself or your life. 
We all have patterns, health, behavioral, life.. those can interfere.
Or maybe you need a break. Ivanla Vanzant wrote a great book called,  In the meantime.
But, in the meantime, what do you?
Sometimes all we can do is let go. 
Get help, or ask for help..

How can Acupuncture ​help? 
Acupuncture gets the energy moving through the meridians in the body. When treating pain, we are moving blocked qi and blood. People often say that they feel more positive and can problem solve even during a treatment. Acupuncture helps to calm and soothe the nervous system. When we can get out of a state of stress, we can often see things from a different perspective. This might mean seeing our own lives differently as they are, or a way that we can make a change for the better. 

Either way, studies show that even doing something small to take a step forward or problem solve, increases dopamine in our brains. This neuro-transmitter involves the reward response in our brains, making us feel better!
