Holistic Travel 101: A perspective on holistic and alternative health (videos)

 

Alternative healing arts have been passed down from generation to generation for 5,000 years, encompassing ancient civilizations' contribution to the modern world's understanding of esoteric and exotic healing arts.  Holistic medicine practitioners, metaphysical educators, and spirituality teachers working with energy healing, ancient wisdom and universal laws have become more available to the western world.  So, holistic travel makes it necessary to engage these masters of their craft through travel in the physical realm.

 

In the world of holistic health and naturopathic medicine, alternative means of wellness are explored. Energy healing in the forms of Reiki from Japan, QiGong from China, and Pranic Healing from Southeast Asia top the list for energy workers, yet more modern modalities such as massage therapy and reflexology have also become mainstream. Acupuncture, herbology, and homeopathy have also become more ubiquitous.   More green or sustainable living and balanced diet with organic food promote wellness and drug-free healing at DNA levels. Feng Shui from China and Space Clearing from many parts of the world offer environmental healing with the purposeful elimination of stagnant energies, and bringing in natural elements in our living space.

The elimination of industrial toxins with anti-oxidant coming from natural herbs supports the idea of more vegetable-based organic diets.  Physical exercise, especially in the presence of higher concentration of oxygen from natural surroundings, top the list for achieving higher states of joyfulness as it produces endorphins in the body.  Yoga from India, working with the balancing and clearing of our chakras, our major operating energy systems have become more mainstream and widely accepted. Meditation helps calm the mind, allowing the body to heal itself without undue stress which anxiety and fear provoke.

    To All My Readers of Holistic Travel,

    Please exercise caution and discernment when offered products and services with claims related to areas of treatment and intervention unfamiliar to you. Especially be cognizant and attentive of instances payment is required upfront to pay for what you do not understand, you are required to give up your personal information online or in person, or you are asked to sign contracts or agreements. Be aware of high pressure scare tactics; the ones that spell doom and gloom for you and your loved ones. It is also for your highest and greatest good to consider your intuition as your best ally. Intuition is also known as your hunch, gut feeling, small voice within, etc. If you feel uneasy and uncomfortable at anytime during your interactions with anyone for that matter, take heed and excuse yourself while you send love to all. Seek timely advice from others you trust. Most of all, learn to trust yourself if you do not do so already.

    Take care,
    Gi
