Hawthorn Plus

Posted on by

We want to recommend the new Hawthorn Plus™ from the True Botanica company – now in an easy to swallow capsule format.

Hawthorn benefits:

  • Supports the heart, invigorates the cardiovascular system (an often overlooked cause of fatigue)!
  • Supports a healthy liver;
  • Lessens overall anxiety.

The special features of this formula are:

  • It contains organic Hawthorn berries;
  • It contains the Hawthorn root and the native salts and ashes of the root.
    Including the native salts and ashes of the root into the final product is one of the cardinal enhancements that distinguish the True Botanica formulas. The salts and ashes of the root not only make the preparation truly “full spectrum,” but, according to an indication of Rudolf Steiner, also enhances the spiritual/energetic Sun quality of the preparation.
    Clearly, especially when we are talking about the heart, the “sunny” quality is a much desired quality.
  • More than any other preparation the formulas made from berries and seeds benefit the heart and circulation. This is emphasized by Rudolf Steiner.

True Botanica’s Vital Mind™

– An Anthroposophic Answer –

This formula has already benefited numerous patients and True Botanica customers.

It contains:

  • Pure Wisconsin ginseng – highest world quality!
  • Salts and minerals derived from the ginseng root – to include the ashes of the root extract is a vital indication of Rudolf Steiner; it brings the sun forces into the root;
  • Special gemstone derived minerals specific to the consciousness processes;
  • A potent choline form – the substance is frequently missing from our diet.

The full concept for vitalizing your mind consists of taking this product (Vital Mind AM) in the morning while taking the accompanying formula, Vital Mind PM, in the evening (for increasing blood circulation to the nervous system and improving brain metabolism).

Aurum Cream for Heart Health

Posted on by

Anthroposophic medicine uses the connection between the heart, the sun and the sun forces expressed in gold (Latin = aurum) in order to:

  • Strengthen the heart,
  • Fight heart anxiety,
  • Improve heart conditions,
  • Balance the forces of the nervous system (above the heart) and
  • Balance the forces of the metabolism (which lie below the heart).

We recommend a cream with potentized gold, such as True Botanica’s Aurum Cream, that does not contain parabens, petrolatum or other damaging additives. Among others it has proven especially beneficial in its calming effects before going to sleep.

Apply sparingly over the left side of the chest in the heart area.

Nervous Exhaustion

Nervous Exhaustion?

We have been very successful with the root of the Winter Cherry (also known as Withania, Ashwaganda, Indian Ginseng) for helping with this kind of fatigue.

The Winter Cherry can be helpful in:

  • Nervous exhaustion;
  • Tonic for all ages: from young athletes to the elderly;
  • Recovering from illnesses;
  • Increases resistance to cold stress;
  • Supports the adrenal gland to keep the cortisol level stable;

We have found True Botanica’s Recovery Tonic especially helpful because their formula has the unique feature of including not just the root extract, but also the native salts of the root, additional potentized minerals for strengthening the adrenal gland and Bioperine to further improve absorption.

Foot Massage for Migraines, Thyroid Health, and Fatigue

An Integral Part of Anthroposophic Therapeutics

Reflexology has been successfully practiced due to the understanding that all organs are projected on the foot sole.

Massaging the foot can have a significantly invigorating effect on the whole body. An evening foot massage can restore a lot of the energy that is lost during the day. Rudolf Steiner recommends foot massage, for example, in migraines as a means of attracting the astral body to the region opposite the head and decongesting the affected area.

He recommends the massage of the heel in thyroid disorders. He gives, of course, innumerable indications for the feet in the practice of eurythmy. Overall the feet may affect the health of the entire body just by how they affect the position and function of the spinal column.

A favorite product we use and recommend is True Botanica’s Refreshing Foot Cream™. It uniquely contains jasper (the gem stones corresponding to the feet), boswellia (the frankincense resin that is healing to the skin), anti- inflammatory oils, etc., without any damaging additives.

Give it a try for your health or to overcome tiredness!

Rudolf Steiner’s Birthday

Posted on by

Dear Friends,

Today is Rudolf Steiner’s birthday. There is some controversy on whether he was born on February 25, or on February 27th 1861. Either way these next few days is a good time to turn our thoughts, feelings and will impulses toward this individuality.

To the Jesus Being the Three Kings brought Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh.

What can we bring Rudolf Steiner this year, and increasingly every year, as a worthy gift?

Rudolf Steiner once said that he did not want to be revered but rather he intensely wished to be understood. Because to truly and really understand him is to understand ourselves to Know Ourselves.

So let’s bring him our understanding. Let’s try to better comprehend his intentions, his impulses. Let’s ask the questions that will lead us to “get it”.

It is a worthwhile endeavor. Understanding his work, Anthroposophy, the science of the Spiritual Man, ultimately benefits us ourselves. As the saying goes it

“It helps us to become what we are.”
