Many people consider autumn to be the most gentle season of the year. With its warm, sunny days, cool evenings and postcard-perfect colours as the leaves begin to turn, it's the perfect time to slow things down and enjoy the crispy outdoors with some gentle exercise, good nutrition and a little pampering of body, mind and soul. Great ways to boost your natural resistance this autumn:
- Dry-brush your skin. There are many benefits to body brushing. It's a great way of getting rid of dead skin cells and stimulating the circulatory and lymphatic systems. Start your feet and work up, with sweeping strokes towards your heart. After brushing, shower or take a delicious warm bath.
- Take a nap. Energy levels can wane during autumn, so take a short afternoon nap lasting between 20-30 minutes and give yourself a quick energy boost.
- Rediscover nutrient-packed hearty soups. Use ingredients that fit the season to help boost and protect your body’s health.
- Golden juices: Grapefruit, oranges, naartjies and clementines make delicious, tart juices that pack an immune-boosting punch.
- Use homeopathic and other natural remedies to boost your immunity at this time of year. Click here for the top 10 remedies for autumn sniffles

Is there a remedy for cold sores?
Herpes is a common virus that causes cold sores - small, painful, fluid-filled blisters - on the lips, mouth or nose, and elsewhere on the body. Eruptions are most likely to occur in times of stress, when the body's defences are down. Cold sores often start with a tingling sensation. To help prevent cold sores, it is important to boost the immune system. Homeopathy has many remedies known to relieve the symptoms (burning, itching) and lower the frequency of outbreaks. Homeopathic remedies encourage balance on both an emotional and a physical level. All homeopathic remedies boost the immune system by stimulating the body's own healing mechanisms and strengthening the body's natural resistance to dis-ease.

This highly effective formula helps to speed up healing and dramatically reduce the severity of symptoms. Can be used in conjunction with topical treatments.

Radiation in Japan
The world looked on with horror in March as parts of Japan were decimated by an earthquake and a tsunami that left 2 nuclear plants damaged and spewing deadly radiation into the ground, into the air and into the water. While Japan's was an extreme situation, in today's modern world, most of us are regularly exposed to varying doses of radiation from x-rays, electrical appliances, microwave ovens, computers, televisions, radios, power lines, electrical heating and lighting.
The degree of damage caused by radiation depends on many factors such as dose, dose rate, type of radiation, part of the body exposed, age and health. According to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), embryos and children are more sensitive to radiation than adults. Because children are growing more rapidly, there are more cells dividing and a greater opportunity for radiation to disrupt the process. Left unchecked, this electro-pollution may accumulate and lead to a range of disorders. Various homeopathic remedies are known to assist the body with the elimination of harmful radiation, including gamma ray radiation, mobile telephone radiation, microwave radiation, X-ray radiation and computer terminal radiation, as well as harmful electromagnetic exposure.

Bach flower remedies: Spotlight on Impatiens
The Bach flower remedy Impatiens is a great remedy for impatience. This is the remedy for the person who loves to speed things up at home, at work and at play. He or she feels as though everyone and everything around him is too slow. You can see the impatience on his face as he strides ahead of everyone, then stops and turns with a frown on his face, willing the others to hurry and catch up. You’ll find him trying to push ahead in a queue, impatient because the bus or train or plane is a couple of minutes late and once inside and seated, impatient because he wants the ride to end so he can reach his destination as quickly as possible. This is a fidgety person, drumming his fingers against anything if he has to wait or pacing up and down like a caged tiger. He suffers very often from headaches and indigestion.
Impatiens calms him down and eases the stress. He learns to walk in step with others and enjoy life as he does so. Impatiens stops the mad whirl that goes on in his mind and makes him more patient with everyone around him.
