Naturopathy โ the path of nature โ the nature path
ย
The practice of Naturopathy has changed quite a bit since I first began studying. Peopleโs expectations have also changed and there are many people with complex and chronic conditions. So much information is available to the general public and research in all fields continues to expand and inform. It is easy to become overwhelmed as a person seeking help and as a practitioner seeking to support.
ย
If we stop and listen and remind ourselves of our true nature (that we are nature) we will see a little something of what can be done.
ย
Our bodies have amazing capabilities to detoxify, cope with changes in environment, deal with stress and adapt to change however long-term pressure on any of our body systems leads to chronic ill health.
ย
Every diversion away from nature is a step closer to imbalance - we can cope with short term pressures.
ย
Just like, every movement towards nature is a step closer to balance โ where we thrive in the long term.
ย
Naturopathy at its roots aims to support people come back into balance. To move towards their nature.

The Nature Path:
Wake with the sun, sleep with sun down
Eat during the day, fast at night
Move our bodies throughout the day
Be outside, in the sun
Eat living food that you have prepared
Breathe clean air
Drink clean water
Sleep at night
Rest, recover, de compress during the day. Slow down for a minute. A breath.
