Reflexology For The Spirit

Calm…and Nurtured

treeTo be as healthy as possible, your immune system must be calm and nurtured.

Your immune system is a warrior – fighting off dangerous and threatening diseases.  Help your immune system protect you by making your life, the environment you live in feel safe.

Begin with the space you spend the most time in…your home.

Make sure your home/apartment/wherever you live is allergen free.  That means the air you breathe is clean, the water you drink and bathe with is clean, and you have as little mold, mildew, and insect presence  as possible.

Environmental pollutants and toxins  irritate your immune system which means they are bad for  your health.  Exposure to unknown chemicals can  negatively affect your entire life.  The 3 most threatening toxins:

molds,

insects such as cockroaches,

dust mites.

Begin to calm and soothe your immune system by doing a walk-through of your home.  Make a list of any and all things needing attention:

water stains,

trapped moisture

evidence of pesticides and rodents

mold.

Clean all carpets, rugs, upholstery, curtains, bedding to include blankets, throws, bedspreads.

Have your water tested.

Mask unwanted noise if you live on a noisy street.

After you have gotten rid of the toxins and pollutants, it’s time to make your home environment a peaceful oasis.  This won’t take a lot of $$$.  It will take attention instead.

Create places where sunlight can stream in during the day and where the area is dark at night.  Fill your place with smells and aromas which will feed your soul:

fresh flowers,

home-baked bread

scented candles

a favorite essential oil

wind chimes

music you love..

Use colors in your surroundings which offer peace, calm, soothing feelings.  The idea is to create a space which makes you feel happy the moment you enter it.

Create a meditation corner.  It doesn’t have to be large – You only need enough room to sit or recline comfortably without being bothered.  If you can have a space where you can put up your legs for a few minutes each day, you will be refreshed and nourished – something we all need.
