Is Ear Ringing Associated with Ascension Symptoms?

Are you aware that high vibrational light energies are coming in waves showing our planet in the past few years? You may develop ascension symptoms during this great spiritual awakening, frequent ringing in the ear is one of them. Being able to notice these very subtle energetic frequencies indicates your evolved perception of energies. These frequencies are usually characterized by a higher pitch, causing feelings of joy and peace. Sometimes the ringing may become too loud. You can ask for your Higher Self and the spiritual forces you usually call upon to tone it down and give you protection. Some people suffer from tinnitus, here are some simple tips to relieve it.

Drumming the head is a popular ancient technique to strengthen the Qi (energy) in the kidney meridian. According to the TCM, the energy flow in the kidney meridian opens in the ears. When the energy in the kidney meridian is strong, the hearing function of the ears is optimal and the mind is sharp. This exercise can help improve annoying tinnitus. How to do it? Very simple: use both of your palms to cover your ears, and use your fingers to knock the back of your head horizontally. When your ears are fully covered, you can hear the sound like a drum as your fingers knock your head like playing the piano. This is where the name – “drum the head” came from. The pressure to knock your head should be comfortable. There are many acupoints around your head, the fingers happen to touch three important acupoints including “Feng Chi” and “Nao Hu” with this position. You are stimulating these acupoints when performing this exercise. This exercise can help prevent headaches, tinnitus, and even strokes. Just 30-50 times a day, you will see the benefits if you practice it daily.

If you combine with some natural remedies, you can speed up the healing process for your ear issues. For example, you can apply some essential oils around your ears on your earlobes, also on your neck close to your ears, which will enhance the results. Here are a few examples of the best essential oils that you can choose from for tinnitus.

  • Helichrysum: repair blood vessels and nerves, and reduces inflammation.
  • Juniper Berry: cleansing and antiseptic
  • Patchouli: help drain the fluids that are causing pressure in the ears and creating a ringing sensation.
  • Petitgrain: help reduce or stop the muscle contractions that are causing tinnitus. 
  • Cypress: stimulate blood circulation and promote a healthy nervous system.
  • Basil: antispasmodic that reduces intense pulsation from ear ringing.
  • Lavender: sedative properties that can calm the mind and body.

The good essential oils are very potent and should be diluted in a carrier oil such as grape seed, sesame seed, or coconut oil before applying it to the skin. You can apply two or three drops on the earlobe, behind the ear, and on the neck around the ear. You can inhale, massage, or diffuse essential oils to take advantage of their benefits.

How to Use Footbath to Boost Your Health and DETOX?

Foot care is an essential part of self-care in the TCM. There are over 72,000 nerve endings in the feet, and each one corresponds to a different area of the body. No wonder the foot is called the second heart. You can see that your foot is like a small mirror to reflect your whole body, isn’t it amazing? Just like the hands and ears, foot care can bring you numerous health benefits. Soaking feet has been very popular in Asia for thousands of years. It promotes blood circulation, increases the energy flow in the body, and most importantly, it releases toxic energy from the body.

Epsom salt, also known as magnesium sulfate, is a naturally occurring mineral compound. You may be familiar with its use as a remedy for sore muscles, but Epsom salt offers so many benefits, especially when it comes to flushing out toxins. It acts as a toxin repellent, pushing and flushing toxins out of the cells. Studies have shown that oral absorption of magnesium is less efficient because it has to go through our digestive tract and liver before reaching the bloodstream. While absorption through the skin with bathing, magnesium can bypass our digestive system and allow a higher percentage to directly enter the bloodstream. With an Epsom salt bath or footbath, we not only receive the maximum detoxification benefits of magnesium but also receive many other health benefits, including easing muscle pain and reducing stress, etc.

Bentonite clay is a clay composed of ash from volcanoes. Similar clays have been used by different cultures around the world to remove harmful pathogens such as parasites and bind to toxins to remove them from the body. Bentonite clay’s detoxification power lies in its negative ionic charge and absorption abilities, which pull positively-charged toxins out of the body. Pesticides, heavy metals, and harmful bacteria are all positively charged and this surrenders them to the clay’s binding power. Along with binding to toxins, Bentonite clay also contains a wide range of minerals such as calcium, copper, iron, zinc, and potassium, which provide nutrients to your skin as you detox. You can combine Bentonite clay with Epsom salt in your footbath to maximize the detoxification result.

Baking soda is another kitchen product that can be used to detoxify the body. What is even better is that baking soda also has an alkalizing effect on the body. It has been used to wrap the body as an alternative treatment for cancer patients due to its alkalizing effect.

How to Heal Your Stomach FAST!

After the holiday season, it is time to get back on track with our daily routine, so as your stomach, it has been loaded with big meals with family dinners. Some even suffer from stomach issues. Imagine how it feels like to have stomach discomforts such as stomach pain, gastric acid reflux (GERD), heartburn, nausea, and vomiting. Very uncomfortable, isn’t it? Well, stomach issues are usually not a quick fix. If you rely on medications to save your stomach, you may mask the symptoms and cause more damages to your stomach lining. If the stomach issues have been overlooked for a period of time, you may suffer from chronic gastritis or stomach ulcers. Gastritis is a condition that involves inflammation of the stomach lining. A stomach ulcer also referred to as a peptic ulcer, is a small hole or lesion in the mucosal lining of the stomach.

According to TCM, our digestive system is the foundation of our physical health; it provides the vital energy and nutrients to main a sustainable life. Today, many people are suffering from stomach issues due to a fast-paced lifestyle and stress.

Before we dive into the solutions for the stomach issues, let’s have a quick look at the causes of these stomach issues. When it comes to gastritis or stomach ulcers, H. pylori bacteria is the first culprit to be blamed. Hpylori are a common type of bacteria that grow in the digestive tract and have a tendency to attack the stomach lining. When H. pylori bacteria penetrate the stomach’s mucous lining and generate substances that neutralize stomach acids, this makes the stomach lining more vulnerable to the harsh acids and causes stomach issues.

The dietary approach is the first and also the most important approach to treat any stomach issue. It is also the most effective way to treat stomach-related issues. If you take an anti-acid drug, it neutralizes your stomach acids and weakens your digestion. According to studies, long-term use of anti-acid drugs can cause colon cancer.

In this video, I introduced a comprehensive approach from dietary management, herbal medicine, and Traditional Chinese Medicine to help you get your stomach back on track fast.
