AO(green)DAKE(bamboo)FUMI(stepping)Massager!

OUUUCHHHHHHHH~!!! 

It's been WHILE that I did "AODAKEFUMI". 
It's a Japanese foot massage method; stepping over the half cut bamboo. 
Almost every family used to own it in Japan. 

There are SO MANY acupuncture points all over foot sole.
Stepping bamboo is VERY simple yet, so EFECTIVE.

I've found the list of some effects which motivates me 
to do "AODAKEFUMI" again.  LOL

You need to do about 10(!!)min to get benefits, yet, it might be too hurting, 
let's start w/5min. ;)

Here's video how to do it.  

My "AODAKEFUMI" is from DAISO(seems they don't have location link, 
so, use Google Map to find the location near you).
It's made from plastic, yet, working GREAT!!

Black Tea For Flu?!

SO. EVERY year, flu is coming to town.
I knew HIGH humidity helps prevent flu, yet, never knew about Black tea!!

Just came across the article about it in Japanese and could find it in English, too!

It is possible that flavonoids in black tea, red wine and blueberries work with gut microbes – those found in the digestive tract — to protect against flu and other viral infections.
Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis found that a particular gut microbe can prevent severe flu infections in mice, probably by breaking down flavonoids, according to a statement by the university

Energy medicine & Inner SMILE



Energy medicine is by Donna Eden. Starting a day w/her SMILE is just AWESOME.
I've been AMAZED for a while that we do NOT have to connect ourselves to any charger to charge/move our hearts...when I encounter her Energy Medicine, I was excited! 
She's been showing that We ARE the energy!!

So. What the heck Energy Medicine?? :P

Left Brain Definition: "Conventional medicine, at its foundation, focuses on the biochemistry of cells, tissue, and organs. Energy Medicine, at its foundation, focuses on the energy fields of the body that organize and control the growth and repair of cells, tissue, and organs. Changing impaired energy patterns may be the most efficient, least invasive way to improve the vitality of organs, cells, and psyche." - David Feinstein, Ph.D.

Right Brain Definition: 

"Energy is your body's magic! It is your life force. You keep it healthy and it keeps you healthy. If you are sick or sad, shifting your energies feels good. When you care for these invisible energies, it makes your heart sing and your cells happy!"- Donna Eden

Here's her everyday routine! 

2nd one, Inner SMILE by Mantak Chia

 

The Inner Smile is a practice that focuses gratitude and joy on the internal organs to resolve the physical and mental tensions that can lead to illness. 

In Taoism negative emotions--anger, sadness, depression, fear, and worry--are seen as low-grade energy that causes chronic disease and steals our major life force by creating energy blockages. Master Mantak Chia shows that the internal awareness produced by the simple yet powerful Inner Smile meditation practice flushes the organs of poisonous negative energy that may be blocking chi energy flow in order to nourish the entire body.  

Here's his practice!

THANKS to these practices, I've been feeling GREAT/HEALTHY!!

I'm SURE that YOU will feel so, TOO!!

Thank YOU for visiting my blog! Have an AMAZING one!!

 

Why Gluten Free/LESS??

So, what's G L U T E N??? WHY Gluten-FREE?? LESS??

Gluten is a composite of storage proteins termed prolamins and glutelins and stored together with starch in the endosperm of various grass-related grains. 

It is found in wheat, barley, rye, oat, related species.

My partner had been SUFFERing for decades from spring time allergy,

but one year, he stopped eating bread, pizza and crackers for diet purpose.

After a few months later, spring came and somehow his all-time allergy

did NOT show up!! 

We were SO AMAZED to know that gluten was causing him painful allergy!!

Since then, we eat MORE Brown RICE, much LESS food with gluten (flour),

and it's been GREAT! Being fit and feeling AWESOME!

It would be little stressful if we cut down 100% gluten (LOOK all those YUMMY food! lol)

so, just cutting down is the way to go! I say!

Gluten containing products: Pastas, Noodles ( Rice noodles and mung bean noodles are gluten free!), BREADS, pastries, Crackers, Pancakes, Waffles, French Toast, Crepes, Biscuits, Panko, Breadcrums, Stuffings, Flour tortillas, Beer..so on.
