Natural Ways to Improve Your Health and Well-Being

Health is reflected by the way you look and feel. Improving our health is something we all strive to do. Just like growing your beard, it takes time and dedication to become healthier as well. There is no magic elixir or shortcut to achieving your fullest potential. But these different remedies and methods come pretty close to being a modern day fountain of youth. In combination together or taken alone, the following ways are bound to have a positive impact on your life. Let’s start with the good stuff.

Taking CBD Oil

Cannabidiol, also known as CBD is an extract taken from a cannabis plant. It is one of many cannabinoids (chemical compounds) present in cannabis. Although it is also present in marijuana strains – it’s usually extracted from agricultural hemp. This is commonly due to the fact that within hemp there is considerably less THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) – the chemical responsible for psychoactivity in humans, or what’s responsible for feeling “high.” CBD offers a wide range of health benefits that medical marijuana provides without the high. The extract allows for greater medicinal use across the board for people who want to get the medical benefits without the common recreational effects associated with cannabis. One of the most effective and common ways to consume CBD oil is to simply swallow it. Once you’ve ingested it, it’ll pass through your digestive system and become metabolized by your liver. Eventually the effects will be delivered into your bloodstream. You may also vape CBD oils as they’re absorbed through the lungs before being diffused into your bloodstream. Mixed with your favorite food or drink, fatty acids in foods serve as carriers that give your body the ability to process CBD faster. Some major benefits of CBD oil include:

Pain relief
Lessened inflammation
Nausea relief
Reduced anxiety
May alleviate cancer-related symptoms
Treats some neurological disorders
Produces antipsychotic effects
Treats seizures

Growing Medical Consensus On Effectiveness

In a number of different studies, CBD oil has been shown promise in a few areas. Using CBD in both human and animal studies showed that it can reduce anxiety and depression. It also has anti-inflammatory qualities that might even affect your beard. CBD oil may have beneficial effects for your beard by being able to control your the overproduction of your sebum and reduce beard acne or acne in general. Furthermore, studies suggest that CBD has many antipsychotic effects which can help people with mental disorders. More research is still being done, but the results so far are promising in a wide range of overall health from the body to the mind.

Transcendental Meditation

The ancients and mystics have been doing it for thousands of years. Modern science and culture has just begun to catch up to the fact that meditation is one of the greatest things we can do for our mind, body and spirit. A recent entry into the meditational field was Transcendental Meditation (TM). A technique used to avoid distracting thoughts and the ability to promote a calmer and relaxed awareness. It was derived from ancient Vedic tradition in India. It was brought to the United States in the 1960s by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. The practice is quite simple. A practicing meditator sits in a comfortable position with their eyes closed and repeats a single mantra. A mantra is a word or sound that’s used for focus and concentration.

Meditation In Practice

According to transcendental thought, while meditating and ruminating on this one word or sound, you’ll begin to transcend ordinary modes of thought. In here you can achieve a kind of perfect stillness and rest. Everyday we contend with a constant stream of thoughts branching off to new and dizzying heights and places. Never settling down, these thoughts cascade and wander. They crisscross and reference back to themselves in some recursive flow. Thoughts about thoughts and here we are thinking about thinking.

Silence the internal dialogue.

Traditionally, you start transcendental meditation with a teacher. They will instruct you on its basic tenets and techniques in an introductory lesson. You receive a mantra. If teachers aren’t your thing, then you can feel free to start up yourself after a little reading. Some benefits you can expect from meditation:

Reduced chronic pain
Peace of mind
Lowered blood pressure
Overall better quality of life

Regular meditation can assist you in many areas of life. Along with conventional medical care it can be a truly healing endeavor.

Tea has a wide range of documented health benefits.We already know about the amazing healing and energetic qualities that Matcha possesses, other teas can be equally restorative. Studies have found the following:

Likewise, green tea is associated with lowering negative cholesterol levels and increasing the good cholesterol (HDL) levels.

Gardening
