Throwback Healing - Herbal Garden Medicine
I can say I was honestly excited when I became aware of Mr. Steven
Horn, herbalist, promoting herbal healing. The best way to gain
knowledge is from someone with experience. Steven Horne is a
naturally curious individual. Having suffered some illness
during his younger days, he decided to get back to the source of
health. God made the planet and provided an Eden for humans to
live. Everything we need to survive is here waiting for our use.
Let me go back in time a bit. My grandmother, on father's side
consistently had these natural remedies for whatever my child size
body would suffer. From mint teas and thing she would magically
pull from the back yard, there was some cure for what ailed me. In
this modern era of Western medicine being the end all be all, I can
say it was refreshing speaking with Steven Horne. During our
interview, Steven was more than I expected. Jovial and really good
natured, we seem to laugh more than talk. The obvious takeaway from
our conversation was simple, our population is in dire need of
connection with the things consumed for our health. The western
culture and industrialized national of the world have lost the
connection with food, exercising and cooking. Sure, there is a good
revolution, bit the movement of extremely organic cooking has died
a slow death. [caption id="attachment_1447" align="aligncenter"

Question?
When was the last time you cook a meal with non-processed
ingredients?
I'm guilty, from the sauces to the
medium used to get going such as oil, bottled spices, and
herbs. This was one of the obvious statement Steven offered.
Everything is GMO, everything. Growing items in your garden may
fall in the GMO category. Seeds experience chemicals already
present in the atmosphere and airborne alterations. Steven's
premise is to see what works for you and to do a little homework,
developing your library of knowledge.
Steven's take on Food.
Eating meat is not as bad as the world make us believe.
Unfortunately, the composition of the meat we consume is the
elephant in the room, according to Steven Horne. Mass produced meat
we consume require processing while speeding up the turnaround time
animals are fed diets which are not native to the animal. Chickens
eat native to their environment, not feed chicken feed conjured by
man. Cow and Beef provide the best consumable stock when fed by
grass. The native diet to these animals has been altered and thus
altering humans. The second point is the introduction of processed
white edible foods. Flour, potatoes, and vegetable oils cause
inflammation and stickiness in our bodies. Coconut oil and
macadamia nut oils are far better for the human body. [caption

Everything is already here! Herbal Healing
For thousands of years, human being existed on this Earth. How have
we survived this long? We have forgotten more than we already
understand. There was one point about diet, referencing geography.
It may be required learning to understand what foods your ancestors
were consuming to specialize your diet.
Vegan is not for everyone!
I brought up to Steven how I tried to be vegan, and it was hell on
my body. Nutrient density and mineral consumption is different when
consuming meat distant diets. My problem may have been, I was
starving myself and not getting enough vitamins. I had to agree, as
I need to consume larger physical volumes of leafy stuff, much
larger.
San Francisco
San Francisco California was the V8 consciousness opening moment
for me. I began to cross paths with individuals who were talking
about teas, acupuncture and Chinese medicine. I was hurting
seriously to the point of no return. Deciding to visit a local
practitioner, Dr. Jennifer Huang for acupuncture treatment for
plantar fasciitis. She worked wonders In a few short visits. If I
can introduce just one person to alternative treatment for health
sustainability then mission accomplished. Western medicine is not
the only game in town. Steven Horne follows in line with
the
Tarah
Long interview from my previous post. Personal healing and
maintenance began with what God has already given us on the planet.

Takeaways from the conversation with Steven Horne.
- Don't be afraid of eggs, and meat. Locate the best, most
natural state food available. Grass fed is best.
- Butter comes from cows, find the grass-fed variety.
- Edible plants are all around us, learn what is available in
your perimeter geographically.
- Start a garden
- Excercise
- Stay away from refined white edibles, sugar, potatoes, refined
flour and milk
- Medicine for humans is derived from plants. Pills work on the
body fast but display side effects. Plants work slow and work
naturally with the body.
- Research the food your ancestors consumed before processing
became the method of the day.
