NATURAL SLEEP – PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES
April 9, 2009
Based on this difference between divine and magical dreams, we must bear in mind that God has not used dreams to transmit the progressive steps of his purpose since the conclusion of his inspired Word. The fulfilment of his written prophecies is sufficient to reveal his purposes. Knowing this will protect us from falling victim to metaphysical influences. Once you understand their real origin you will reject them in the interests of your own well-being, guarding yourself against their evil intent. The disastrous influence of metaphysical powers to which some people open their minds can be clearly seen in India and other Far Eastern lands, where dreams and visions have been known to plague and mislead the population.
As regards modern interpretations of dreams, it would be better to treat the subject with healthy scepticism and sobriety. In spite of scientific research, dreams are still a borderline area of unexplained processes and it is most advisable to observe a healthy, natural way of life that will keep your sleep as free as possible from vivid dreams.

THE INFLUENCE OF CORRECT BREATHING ON ILLNESS – LUNGS, CHESTS AND DIAPHRAGMS
If children were to be taught correct breathing at school, their lungs, chests and diaphragms would develop properly and respiratory problems of the chest and lungs, as well as obesity, would remain practically unknown. At the same time, they need to be given calcium-rich foods. All these things make for healthy growth of the internal organs and prevent the lungs from weakening.
Singing teachers take great care in helping their students to achieve success by training them in proper breathing techniques. This is why professional singers never lose sight of the importance of correct breathing.
How much time should we spend on breathing exercises? To begin with, one minute may be sufficient. Gradually the time should be increased, to two minutes, then five minutes and so forth, until the correct way of breathing becomes habitual and automatic under any circumstances. As already stated, the exercises should gradually be extended to fifteen minutes. Regularity in practising the exercises is of the utmost importance because it helps the body to become accustomed to a new rhythm; in this way we will find that deep-breathing is better than any other form of exercise. This is a ‘medicine’ that is within the reach of everyone and costs nothing but a little effort, concentration and perseverance.
We recognise with gratitude the help obtained from natural remedies and food, from rest and proper exercise. But are we aware that it is only through correct breathing that we will crown the other therapeutic successes, adding the finishing touches to them? Once this is so we will then prove the principle that ‘breathing means life’ to be true.

COFFEE – MAKING SAUERKRAUT AT HOME (PART 2)
Of course, sauerkraut can be made without the onions. It is important, however, that the preparation is done in a warm room and that the cabbage it left to stand for two or three weeks in a room not under 20 °C (68 °F). After that, place the container somewhere cool so that there is no butyric acid fermentation, which could ruin the contents. If you prepare sauerkraut without salt, you must make sure that you exclude all air from the container and that everything is scrupulously clean so that it will keep well.
Formerly 1-2 per cent salt was used, in other words, 100—200 g for every 10 kg of cabbage (4-8 oz for every 20 lb). Nowadays, 0.5 per cent salt or less is considered enough, since it has been found that too much salt reduces the lactic acid fermentation, resulting in an inferior product.

SUGAR – THE GOODNESS OF DATES (REFINED SUGAR)
While our children spoil their teeth with all sorts of sweets made from refined sugar, the children of those desert tribes have nothing but dates to satisfy their sweet tooth. It is not without good reason that dates are called the ‘meat’ of the desert Arabs. Their children eat a large amount of date sugar but still have healthy teeth, just like those of the Indian children who satisfy their desire for sweet things by eating green sugar cane or pilosillo, the condensed sugar cane juice.
What a pity that we are not similarly inclined and satisfied with simple natural things! If we could avoid the use of refined sugar, which contributes to tooth decay and many other degenerative conditions, our children’s teeth would be much better. What is more, refined sugar is now about three times dearer than it was just a few years ago. So there are many reasons why we should try to eliminate it from our diet as much as possible, substituting fruit sugar instead.

HELPFUL DIETS FOR THE SICK A – FASTING (FEELING SICK)
Should you feel sick during the fast, you will be well advised to speed up the elimination by encouraging the skin function. Friction baths, vigorous washing and towelling or brushing down will stimulate the circulation, while deep-breathing exercises will likewise help to get rid of the feeling of sickness. Short walks in the woods and along country lanes, breathing in the aromatic air, will soon restore a feeling of health and well-being.
If you feel very hungry, chew a few raisins slowly and thoroughly. The Bedouins wandering in the desert often live on nothing but a few dates a day, because they obtain the full benefit from this frugal meal by chewing it thoroughly and so predigesting it properly. In the same way we can help ourselves during our special period of fasting. Spit out the skins of the raisins and just enjoy the grape sugar.
