ATHLETE'S FOOT
Athlete's Foot: is a fungal infection of the skin, related to jock itch and ringworm. It thrives in moist, warm, dark places. This contagious fungal infection is most common between the toes and soles of the feet. This fungus thrives in warm, moist areas where there is little light and air. The skin becomes itchy, flaky, burns, irritated, and inflamed due to the dead skin cells that accumulate between the toes and sustain the fungus. Keeping your feet clean and dry is the most important thing.
The best treatment is to expose your feet to fresh air and sunlight. Keep them clean and dry. Natural materials such as cotton and leather create the best environment for feet, while rubber and even wool may induce sweating and hold moisture. Whenever possible, such as during the summer, wear airy shoes such as sandals. Change your socks three or four times a day. And wear only clean cotton socks, not those made with synthetic yarns. Be sure to rinse the socks thoroughly during laundering, because detergent residue can aggravate your skin problem. This helps kill fungus spores. Wash your socks twice in extra-hot water. Powder your toes. To further keep your feet dry, allow them to air-dry for 5 or 10 minutes after a shower.

Grapefruit-seed extract essential oil is reported to have significant antifungal effects. Apply the extract (full strength) two to three times a day to the affected area.

HYDROTHERAPY
The mysterious and amazing healing power of water has been utilized for centuries.
Water cleanses, refreshes and restores all life. We are always drawn to water. Be it a soothing fountain or majestic waterfall. Water is a carrier. It flows. It moves along the line of least resistance to find its way to the ocean where comes and goes in the ebb and flow of tides and waves. The appeal is inexplicable! We crave water, maybe because our bodies are made up of a large percent of it. Maybe beacuse we instinctively know how it can heal us.
Hydrotherapy is the use of water in any form, in the treatment of dis-ease. Hydrotherapy was used by the ancient Greek physicians. The use of baths for such purposes as well as for religious purification, personal cleanliness, and private or social relaxation dates from at least the time of ancient Greece. A German, Vincenz Priessnitz, popularized the use of spas in Germany and elsewhere in Europe, where they are still popular today.
Hydrotherapy has a number of uses. Warm water will relax spasm; thus, hydrotherapy has been useful in treating such conditions as muscular strains and sprains, muscular fatigue, and backache. Heat is often used in conjunction with massage or other manipulative or stimulative treatments, such as the whirlpool bath. Sitz baths (sitting in hot water) are effective in the treatment of many disorders. Water is also useful in physical therapy because patients who exercise in a buoyant medium can move weak parts of their bodies without contending with the strong force of gravity.
Soak your foot in a mixture of 2 teaspoons salt per pint of warm water. Do this for 5 to 10 minutes at a time, and repeat until the problem clears up. The saline solution helps provide an unappealing atmosphere for the fungus and lessens excess perspiration. It softens the affected skin, so antifungal medications can penetrate deeper and act more effectively. As the tub fills with water add 2 spoons of Angel's Mist Deep Soak Sea Salts to the foot bath water for a soothing, cleansing soak.
Submerging as much of your feet as possible, stay in the bath for at least 20 minutes, adding water as needed to maintain the temperature of the bath.
There are many different approaches to massage and applications of it. "Massage Therapy" is a holistic procedure that affects all systems of the body; digestive, elimination, respiratory, circulatory, lymphatic,
endocrine and nervous systems. Many of today's health problems arise from stress. Because stress upsets the delicate integral balance of all your body's
functions, regaining this balance requires a holistic approach.
Massage Therapy not only treats those parts of you which are a problem, but also affects the whole of your metabolism through normalizing your circulatory, muscular and nervous systems and their interdependent functioning. Massage is usually done with soothing massage oils or relaxing body lotions
in order for the practioner's hands to "glide" over the body with smooth, relaxing strokes.

and total relaxation but the stones will enhance a positive, reconnecting flow of energy which will allow you to bring up, recognize and clear emotional blocks.
MANAGING YOUR ATHLETE'S FOOT
An unchecked fungal infection can lead to cracks in the skin and invite a nasty bacterial infection. Consult your physician if:
*The inflammation proves incapacitating.
*Swelling occurs in the foot or the leg at any time during the attack, and you develop a fever.
*Pus appears in the blisters or the cracked skin.
There is an emotional aspect to every illness. Often times, it is the emotional thoughts or "excess emotions" that will lead to illness. The following therapies are utilized for calming the mind, help with stress relief and focuses on our mental powers over any situation. The ability to balance your emotional, mental, physical and spiritual self is up to you. Here are some suggestions:
What is your experience with this disorder? Sharing your own experiences often helps others. We'd love to know in the
Peacefulmind Community
Vibrational medicine which validates that everything in the universe is in a state of vibration and the frequency at which
an object or person most naturally vibrates is called resonance. The chakras, bones, and organs in the body all possess a different resonant frequency. When an organ or part of the body is vibrating out of tune or nonharmoniously, it is
called "dis ease" or disease. A body is in a healthy state of being when each cell, each organ creates a resonance that is in harmony with the whole being.
Music is a powerful tool that can be used in so many ways. It has been proven that the type of music that makes a person relax or become receptive is not any one kind. It all depends on the individual and their affinity with it.
Healing Music is recommended for this condition.
The power of your mind and your belief system has everything to do with the condition, the speed and the way that you heal.
* Our Belief System is one of the major factors that can get us through situations or can cause our life to crumble around us! I do believe that there is a lot of innate goodness and balancing our minds do subconsciously to get us through hard times. The other portion of this is how we "program" ourselves to deal with any given situation.
* Our self-confidence and self-love are often the key to opening and strengthening this portion of our thoughts which in turn emanates from ourselves!
* Energy follows thought. Program thought to be positive and your energy will reflect it!
* Really appreciating what we DO have as opposed to what we would like to have, sometimes makes a signifcant difference. This is always an important element in healing that is often neglected.
STONE & CRYSTAL REMEDIES:
Crystals have both piezoelectric and pyroelectric properties. This means that the polarities of the crystal will change when subjected to pressure or heat (even body heat from the hands). This will radiate energy from the crystal due to this reversal of polarities. It provides the transfer, storage and transformation of energy. Offering a balanced energy field, energy modification, amplifies both energy and thought, clarity in thinking, and harmony and alignment with the Chakra energy areas.
The Complete Chakra Kit stimulates the seven main energy sources which govern all the major organs and psychologically alters and clears the body's energy in order to allow healing to take place.
