Throughout the animated discussion, Martin and Scott touch on two important methods you can use to balance hormones and restore proper cellular health. Cellular health is so important because each cell contains its own life force which combines with others to produce a full-fledged life form. If the cells aren’t communicating properly with each other, or if they are not performing their respective function, it’s no wonder the life form (you) doesn’t feel too hot!

One of the best ways to reassert proper cellular health is through magnesium. Known to soothe the nervous system, it provides deep rest and produces amino acids which are a very important part of the chemical processes which are going on at all times throughout your body.

The next solution is no secret to those who live near the ocean. Kelp, rich in iodine, has been prized by coastal peoples for millennia. Natives were known to trade with inland tribes and in return for their kelp they would the most prized possessions of the inlanders. It should come at no surprise then that kelp and seaweed have tremendous healing powers. Modern scientific analysis is showing us that edible seaweed leads to longer lasting life and less mineral depletion throughout the bloodstream.

In this week’s podcast Martin Pytela, the founder of the Life Enthusiast Co-op, teams up with his co-host Scott Paton to talk on the subject of Aromatherapy. Aromatherapy is the study of how smells that surround us affect our emotional and physical well-being.

Aromatherapy puts heavy emphasis on the use of essential oils, which are extremely useful and powerful therapeutic agents. Use of these types of oils goes back many years through healing ceremonies and religious rites. They were extremely popular and useful in the ancient world.

Many of these oils, frankincense is a common example, you already known from religious texts in the Judeo-Christian and Muslim religions. Frankincense was used to cure many ailments as were others such as myrrh, lotus, sandalwood and more. Ancient Egyptian purification rituals used these types of oils also.

Fast forward to the 21st century and one of the beneficial oils offered by the Life Enthusiast Co-op is known as Ylang Ylang. A fractionated oil, Ylang Ylang includes five fractions or grades that are collected for various purposes. It is very useful in treating depression by lifting people up emotionally and mentally. It is an excellent cure for low self-esteem and for curing menstrual cramps in women.

I have received testimony from many clients, all of whom agree that this oil is calming, relaxing and exotic. I have also had testimony that it acts as an excellent aphrodisiac. If you are at all interested or intrigued by the idea of aromatherapy, don’t hestitate to give it a try!
