I often walk around the house with him, but when I’m not in the mood, walks are not cancelled. Hammy always comes up with something with a trick. One day, when I didn’t feel like going out with him, he decided to pretend he was sick. Hammy lay down in the corner, hoping that I would get him out of his cage. So he did this several times. He also likes to misbehave. I’ll put it on the table where I do my homework, and there’s always candy or something sweet there. He will bite the candy and try it. If I don’t like it, he’ll carefully put the piece back and cover the hole in the candy wrapper with something so that I won’t notice. This is my special hamster. You won't find anything like this anywhere on earth!

THERE ARE NO FANS, BUT THE MEMORY REMAINS

My name is Dasha, I graduated from the second grade. I'll tell you a story about our dog Fana.

She was very smart and followed our commands well. One day, grandma put a piece of meat in Fanya’s bowl. The dog was in the hall at that time. The grandmother approached her and, without giving any commands, simply asked Fanka to come into the kitchen. Fana looked carefully at her grandmother and understood everything! She also asked for drinks in a very funny way. He will come up and smack his paw into the bowl! There was such a roar!

Unfortunately, we no longer have Fana. Instead of her there is now a Lord. Making progress too!

GRANDFATHER DID NOT BELIEVE IN THE POWER OF “HLS”

My grandmother introduced me to “HLS”. I came to visit her in the village in the summer, and she said: “I’m writing out “HLS” - “Healthy Lifestyle.” I read it and liked it. Now I look forward to each issue. I especially like the sections “Miscellaneous” and “Creative Club.” Newsletter for us as a friend, as a family member.

Grandfather used to not believe in the power of folk recipes and laughed at us. But one day his eyes hurt. A burning sensation appeared and tears flowed. Grandma found a recipe for honey drops and calendula lotions in “ZOZH”. The next morning our grandfather was healthy! He used the drops for another week. Since then he stopped laughing at us and often leafs through the newsletter.

I am 10 years old. This year I graduated from 4th grade and am moving on to 5th grade. Every year I go to my grandparents in the village for the whole summer. I have my own farm there: rabbits, chickens. Every day I get up at 6.30 am

- I feed the animals. And then I ride a bike

- this is both a walk and exercise.

I will share an incident that happened in the village. We had a goat, Zina, who lived in a shed. I often went to see her and stroked her. One day, when she was getting ready to go home, she closed the gate of her pen poorly and Zina ran out of the barn. I tried to approach the goat, but it ran away from me. I started calling my grandmother, but she didn’t hear. And then I cried... And Zina took pity on me and came up. I was happy, said thank you to the goat, closed the gate behind her and ran home.

IF I WERE A PIG...

My mother loves reading the newspaper “Healthy Lifestyle”! Even in her free time, she reads various recipes and stories! I really like the “Miscellaneous” and “Creative Club” sections. And for the last section “Creative Club” I decided to write my own poem. If I were a pig

with pink back, nose and tail

crochet, I would lie in a puddle

in the cold cold, I wish I could wait for summer,

and grunted loudly!

BEER WITHOUT ALCOHOL

Non-alcoholic beer is becoming increasingly popular in Germany. In 2007, its consumption increased by 7.3%.

According to the Institute of Market Problems, every third woman (36.2%) and every fifth man (20.8%) have an unambiguously positive opinion about it, calling this beer an ideal drink for quenching thirst.

DO NOT SORRY FOR THE LIVER.

Anyone who eats hamburgers, pizza and also moves little will soon receive a “notice” from the liver. This is evidenced by the results of a study at Linköping University (Sweden).

Participants in the experiment, volunteers, ate “fast food” twice a day (sometimes more) for a month and moved little (less than 5,000 steps per day). With this diet and lifestyle, they increased their weight—in a month! - on average by 6.5 kg.

In addition, the presence of the enzyme Alanin-Aminotransferase in their body increased by more than 4 times!

This enzyme, which has gained strength, is evidence of liver damage. It only occurs in such concentrations in alcoholics. Scientists explain the damage to the liver from “fast food” primarily due to excessive consumption of carbohydrates and saturated fatty acids. That's what Fast Food is.

NOT TO YOUR LIKE

It is usually believed that loss of interest in the environment, a state of internal emptiness, exhaustion, and indifference are the consequences of stress at work: they say, a person is overworked, burnt out. Rest and everything will pass.

Dr. Elisabeth Jerich from the University of Graz (Austria), in her doctoral dissertation, after many meetings with people, states something else: the person did not burn out, but did not catch fire, he did not like this work.

Unfortunately, many people do not like their work; it does not suit their inclinations and interests. But work doesn’t like people like that. LOSE WEIGHT!

If your hormones are not okay, lose weight! There is no other way out. Between 5 and 10% of women of childbearing age suffer from what is called polycystic ovary syndrome: they have too many male hormones in their bodies and their ovaries are riddled with cysts.

Often such women do not have children, suffer from acne and severe body hair. Many of them also have excess insulin in their bodies, which often leads to obesity.

In this case, you need to lose weight! - say experts from the German Society of Endocrinology.

GREEN TEA WITH ANTIBIOTICS

Antibiotics work more effectively if the person taking them also drinks green tea regularly.

Dr. Mervat Kassem and his colleagues from the University of Alexandria (Egypt) tested the effectiveness of a combination of antibiotics and green tea on 28 infectious diseases.

As Dr. M. Ks recently stated in Edinburgh (Scotland) at the annual meeting of microbiologists united in the Society for General Microbiology, green tea enhanced the bactericidal (killing pathogenic bacteria) qualities of antibiotics in all 28 cases.

Even 20% of resistant, drug-resistant microbes became vulnerable again and were destroyed by broad-spectrum antibiotics from the cephalosporin group - in combination with green tea.

Green pharmacy

“How infinitely rich is the one who has in the best corner of his soul the image of some wormwood blade. - said one of the writers. It is the image of the wormwood bush that has been stored in my soul since early childhood.

Our family had a cult of the forest. Father

loved and knew the forest and

often organized trips for us four children to the forests near the Don. We walked across the steppe, made rest stops, laid out lunch on the grass, and father put an aromatic seasoning on pieces of lard - thin ash-green leaves of wormwood... Arriving home, we had evening tea. Everyone brewed their favorite herb: my mother - oregano, my sisters - thyme and mint, and I, in love with the smell of wormwood, decided one day to make wormwood tea. I thought it would be very tasty, and I remember how everyone laughed merrily when, suspecting nothing, I took the first sip of the wormwood drink...

Wormwood is not just a herb for me. I feel her character, her spirit - refreshing and cleansing...

This plant has helped me and my loved ones more than once.

One day a cat scratched me. He sits under the sofa and looks at me with a guilty eye. The next day, the scratch near the elbow turned red, became inflamed and began to hurt. What to do? I went out into the city yard in search of a saving sprig of wormwood, but, alas, it was nowhere to be found. Under a stone fence, a cheerful burdock is melting in the sun, an emerald mat of knotweed is spreading under my feet, and suddenly I see a single wormwood bush shining silver in the sun between two high-rise buildings, as if it was waiting for me. I apologized to him, picked a sprig, brewed it, and dipped my sore elbow in the hot infusion. The next day the inflammation was gone.

Having read in “HLS” about Ivanchenko’s triad, I collected three components - wormwood, tansy and cloves. I rubbed the dry herbs through a sieve, thus making a very fine powder, added clove powder bought in a store, weighed everything on a pharmacy scale strictly according to the recipe and drank I took this mixture for a month, washed down with water. The result was surprising: I have not had the flu or acute respiratory infections for several years, herpes, which used to appear with a cold, has disappeared, my blood has cleared, and my immunity has increased.

One day I fell and badly hurt my knee. The wound healed slowly, the scar on the bend was hard and made it impossible to bend the leg. On my mother’s advice, I brewed wormwood and steamed my leg, applying hot branches to the bruised area. The scar became soft and the next day I could walk easily and freely.

One day I come to my son and find him in a gloomy mood. The day before he stepped on a rusty nail, his foot became swollen and inflamed. I'm going to look for wormwood. I found it at the school stadium - it shines silver in the sun, it’s so dear, I picked it and brewed it. He dipped his foot in the infusion and kept it until it cooled. I repeated it at night, and in the morning I calmly stepped on my foot...

My friend's husband decided to quit drinking. But when he sat down at the table and his wife served him salad and various dishes for lunch, a problem arose: his reflex to a glass of vodka was activated. He says: “Well, I can’t just eat such goodies!”

We poured him a glass of bitter wormwood infusion. The hand habitually took a glass, the reflex was realized, and the wormwood water increased the appetite so much that lunch was eaten with pleasure. So gradually this man gave up drinking. Consciously and painlessly. By the way, it is known that a mixture of wormwood and thyme in a combination of one to three (drink 30 ml of infusion before meals) relieves alcoholism.

Once there was a lot of stress in my life. I had a hard time enduring this dark period, I became weak and felt bad.

Together with a friend (she is a doctor), we made a wormwood cigarette with a diameter of 1 cm and a length of approximately 15 cm, and she warmed up the longevity point with it (if you put your palm on your knee, this point will be approximately under the middle finger), holding the cigarette at a distance of 2 cm from points. A few days of warming up, and I felt more strength. It was so noticeable that I was surprised. Ancient doctors said that when burned, wormwood releases something that “burns away disease.”

Ancient and medieval poets loved to sing the healing properties of herbs. Many poems were devoted to wormwood and its beneficial effects on human health. I myself have noticed more than once that wormwood brings a refreshing and healing power to the body... In the dictionary V. Dahl lists such popular names for wormwood as “holy tree”, “God’s tree”, “not sick” (don’t get sick!), “bodrenets” , “little man”...

Childhood is gone, my parents have passed on to another world, and the image of a silver wormwood bush lives in my memory and resurrects distant images of childhood: the sunny steppe, lunch on the grass, the smile of my father, who for some reason loved wormwood so touchingly.

Both the homeland and the medicine are in one stem...

Spurs, IMPROVEMENT OF BLOOD CIRCULATION, NORMALIZATION OF SLEEP

I walk along the “sea shore” at home

I am a pensioner, 71 years old. I lived in Siberia for 57 years and have been living on the Black Sea shore for 14 years now. From the age of 40 I became interested in health literature. I applied many recommendations, because I was sure that 1 g of prevention is more valuable than 1 kg of treatment. After retiring, I continue to work—my health still allows it. I have been regularly subscribing to the Healthy Lifestyle newsletter for 8 years. I read very carefully with a pencil in my hand. Sometimes I apply the necessary advice, recommend it to relatives, and let them read this newspaper. We all wait and love her. I have never written about anything in the newspaper in 8 years, although I have a lot of information useful for health.

T.A. Ivacheva pushed me to write to the newspaper. from Sverdlovsk with the article “Hay loft in the bedroom” in “Healthy Lifestyle” (N 11 for 2008). I made myself a “seashore” at home and am also very pleased. Although I live on the seashore, I don’t always have time to walk along it. And 5-10 minutes of exercise on this “shore” at home gives a good effect: blood circulation in the feet improves, gets rid of spurs, if done before bed - a good sleep. A very simple and effective invention.

I took a bag made of thick soft linen fabric 60x70 and filled it halfway with small pebbles from the seashore. The thickness of the rug is approximately 5-7 centimeters. The size of the pebbles is slightly larger than a bean, multi-faceted, but the edges should not be sharp, but blunt and rounded.

I also added pits from dates, cherries, cherries... and tied it off. If I still had enough, I replenished it. I pushed this bag under the chair so that it wouldn’t bother anyone. When I have time, I take it out and begin to stomp: with the whole foot, and on the heels, and on the toes, and move between the feet, and stand on the inside and outside of the foot. At first it seems painful, but then it feels so good, and the longer you do it, the more you want to stomp. Well, just wonderful! And most importantly - it's free! There are pebbles on every river, and many people have cherries in their gardens. Sometimes we buy dates, but for some reason we take the pits to the trash. However, other seeds are also suitable. From the same olives. I gave a good idea. But desire and imagination must be shown.

In the same issue, Marchenko A. (Ukraine), in the article “About mumiyo and acupressure,” worries that she does not have a horizontal bar to hang on, but hangs on a horizontal plum branch in the garden. But I have the opportunity to hang on a horizontal bar in my apartment all year round. The son attached fastenings to the walls of the doorway taller than human height and inserted a pipe from the curtain, i.e. made a real horizontal bar that no one can pass by without doing a pull-up or hanging.

I constantly use ready-made herbal mixtures from the company, sometimes I enhance them with herbs I have prepared myself. And I feel good. I am convinced that only nature can heal a person.

Remember: life is given to a person once. And only you can make yourself healthy. Therefore, arm yourself with knowledge and information. Study the immutable laws of nature. Show persistence, will, and ruthlessness towards your laziness and you will see how your life will change. Be healthy!

Always keep potato starch on hand

Immediately after you have been scalded or burned, take potato starch, lightly moisten it with water and apply the mixture to the burned area. Starch relieves fever and prevents bubbles from appearing. There will be no trace left of the burn.

The good thing about this recipe is that it is quick to prepare. I tested it twice: once I burned my back with boiling water when I was a child, and another time with the sun’s rays. I advise you to always have potato starch in stock, especially for young mothers.

VITILIGO

Not only

helps

Duckweed, a “weed” of lakes, ponds, and river mouths, helps with vitiligo. Using a small net made of gauze, collect duckweed from the surface of the water, rinse under cold running water and dry in the shade in the attic, on a fine hanging net, so that the water drains. After drying, grind into powder. Make pills weighing 1-2 g from the powder with half and half honey. They can be dried for future use and taken

1 pill 3 times a day before meals. The course of treatment is six months. Break - 1-2 months. Repeat for 5-6 years. Here are other recipes:

Grind the parsnip seeds. Pour 250 ml of boiling water. Leave for 1 hour, strain. Take 1 tbsp. spoon 3 times a day 30 minutes before meals for 1-2 months.

5-6 g of dry lovage roots in a thermos, pour 250 ml of boiling water. Strain and drink chilled, 1 tbsp. spoon 3 times a day before meals for 1-2 months.

Rub St. John's wort tincture into the skin: pour 20 g of dry St. John's wort herb into a bottle of vodka. Insist 21 days in the sun. Carry out 15 sessions every other day in combination with ultraviolet irradiation.

Finally, a dietary duckweed salad. You will need: 30 g of fresh washed duckweed, 20 g of onions, 100 g of boiled potatoes, 1 egg, salt, spices to taste, 50 g of sauerkraut. Place onion rings on sliced ​​boiled potatoes and sprinkle with chopped boiled egg. Place thoroughly washed sauerkraut in the center of the dish and sprinkle with sour cream. The salad has a choleretic, anti-inflammatory, soothing and blood purifying effect.

HERPES

and then peroxide came to the rescue

A lot is written about hydrogen peroxide on the pages of the newsletter. A huge blister often appears on my upper lip in the same place - herpes. I treat it long and hard - the result is scanty.

One day I read another issue of “Healthy Lifestyle” and thought: I’ll try hydrogen peroxide. At short intervals throughout the day, I burned the herpes three times with cotton wool soaked in peroxide, held it for about 10 minutes, and that’s it, the herpes disappeared. A dried out crust remained, which I smeared with baby cream a couple of times to soften it. This is such a simple and effective treatment.

I don’t know how long the herpes disappeared. They say that the herpes pathogen is introduced into the human body for life, periodically reminding itself. What if taking hydrogen peroxide internally destroys its pathogens? Please respond if anyone has any observations on this topic. I haven't taken peroxide internally yet.

ECZEMA

They help

and correct

She fell ill with eczema in 1989. She was registered at the dermatovenerological dispensary. “I turned over” mountains of literature, experienced a lot myself, used expensive ointments, drank calcium chloride. The result was, alas, insignificant. Finally I turned to a herbalist. She recommended a recipe for collecting herbs and said which foods should be excluded from the diet.

I took her advice and the treatment was much more successful. So I decided to write about this in “HLS”.

So, what foods are harmful for eczema: eggs, fatty foods, meat, spicy (with pepper, seasonings), sweet (sweets, chocolate), flour, salty, smoked, sour. The best food is rolled oats. Exclude from drinks: coffee, tea with various aromatic additives in bags, carbonated drinks, Coca-Cola. Give up alcohol and cigarettes.

Well, now the composition of the collection.

Tricolor violet (pansy), string, motherwort - 3 tbsp. spoons; yarrow, oregano - 2 tbsp. spoons; celandine, dill seeds - 1 tbsp. spoon.

Mix it all. Then 2 tbsp. spoons of the mixture pour 1.5 cups of boiling water, leave in a thermos for 1 hour, strain. Drink half a glass 3 times a day 20 minutes before meals for 30 days. In the middle of this period - after 15 days - a 10-day break is required.

HERPES, STIE, BRUISES, INSECT BITES

And again about the golden mustache tincture

I’ve been reading “Healthy Lifestyle” since he was born. I use tincture of golden mustache. I prepare it like this: I chop 17 pieces of golden mustache and pour in 0.5 liters of vodka. I insist for 21 days, shaking daily. I use this tincture for everything:

Herpes on the lips often bothers me, I tried applying cotton wool soaked in the tincture - it helped.

One day a neighbor complained about barley. I advised her to soak a cloth (20 by 5 cm in size) with golden mustache tincture at night, squeeze it out so that it was wet, put it on her closed eyelids, and gave her a jar of tincture. Everything is over.

Golden mustache is also good for mosquito bites. Break the leaf crosswise several times (more), the juice will come out. Apply the leaf to bites and wounds, everything heals well and does not itch.

Bruises quickly disappear if golden mustache tincture is rubbed into the bruise site.

I am 81 years old. In the morning I do exercises for 1-1.5 hours, in the evening I walk around the apartment - 1250 steps. There is not a free minute, except for 5-6 hours of sleep. And the mood: life is good and living is good.

COUGH

fir

and pine

I’ve been subscribing to “Healthy Lifestyle” for 5 years now, and I look forward to each issue. In No. 4 for 2008, the column “Say no to cigarettes” appeared. My husband and I read letters from former smokers who refer to the methodology proposed by K. G. Kushnir in “Healthy Lifestyle” (N3 for 2007). My husband has been a smoker since 16 -years of experience - decided to try to quit smoking. He did everything as described in K.G. Kushnir’s letter “Say goodbye to the cigarette on February 19!” And he quit!

I began to feel better: the headaches stopped, I had more energy and strength! This is a real miracle!

I will give Zozhev residents some tips on how to deal with cough.

Take 5 cloves of garlic, chop and boil in a glass of milk. Strain and take half a glass at night.

1 tbsp. Pour 1 cup of boiling water over a spoonful of pine buds. Once wrapped, leave for 30-40 minutes. Strain and take 2-3 sips when you feel the urge to cough - it helps immediately.

I collect herbs, read and study literature on treatment, and collect recipes. Write, dear Zozhevites, we will be friends.

INFERTILITY

Salt and soda helped conception

Now I’m 85, and when I was young, the doctors pronounced a verdict: there will be no children. Friends advised me to see a gynecologist of the old school, as they say. An elderly doctor gave me simple advice, which I immediately took advantage of.

Every evening before going to bed I douched. The solution for this was prepared at the rate of 1 tbsp. spoon of salt per 1 liter of warm water. The next day I took 1 tbsp. spoon of table soda per 1 liter of warm water. One day - one solution, the next - another, and so on for three months.

Why couldn't I give birth? As the gynecologist explained, my sexual environment was killing my husband’s sperm. That's the whole secret.

Maybe no one knows about this recipe, and I will go to another world and take with me such a simple and effective remedy. After all, at one time I was cured myself and helped two women. Maybe it will help someone else.

EAR INFLAMMATION, BLESSES, PURULENT ACNE

Ointment will heal wounds

I will share a recipe for an ointment that helps with abscesses, wounds, purulent acne, and ear inflammation.

In a small saucepan, melt honey, lard (lard), wax, finely shaved laundry soap and finely chopped onion in equal parts. When everything is melted and the onion becomes translucent, add a little powdered incense. Stir until the incense melts. Then remove from heat, add fir oil (a fifth of the total mass). Place the saucepan in a bowl of cold water and continue stirring until it thickens. The ointment is ready. Use it like regular ointment, and if you have an ear infection, insert a cotton wick coated with ointment into your ear.

And I’ll also give you some advice that I learned from traditional medicine.

Those who want to lose weight should drink a glass of mineral water with squeezed juice of one lemon in the morning.

To prevent your face from sweating in the heat, wipe the skin of your face, neck, and hands with lemon juice.

To help your hair stay in place better, rub lemon juice into it before styling.

To make your hair shiny and voluminous, take 1 teaspoon each of burdock and castor oil, the juice of 1 lemon, mix everything. Before washing, rub the mixture into your scalp and lubricate your hair with it, then put on a plastic cap and tie a warm terry towel around your head. After an hour, wash your hair.

LEGS LOSE...

Two rubs

I want to give a recipe, maybe someone will find it useful.

One day, while waiting for a bus at a bus stop, I started talking to a woman. She said that her legs were paralyzed and she could not walk for 8 months. And then I found a rub recipe...

Pour 1 glass of cornflower and field chamomile flowers into a 0.7 liter bottle, fill to the top with vodka, seal and bury in the ground for 3 months. Use as a rub.

I would like to offer one more recipe:

Take 0.5 cups of water, the same amount of vodka (or moonshine), 1 heaped teaspoon of salt, the same amount of baking soda and 0.5 cups of apple cider vinegar and pour everything into a bottle. Just make sure that it doesn’t “pop out”, otherwise soda and vinegar

They foam and make noise. When the salt and soda dissolve, you will get a very good rub. Address: Raisa Denisovna Brusentsova, 353725 Krasnodar region, Kanevsky district, pos. Red Guard.

RADICULITIS

Turpentine relieves aches

Take gum turpentine and rub it into the sore spot until it is absorbed into the skin. Then put on a cake made from yeast dough (rye flour). Keep for an hour, if it does not burn, but at least 45 minutes. Repeat the procedure for three days and then take a week break. Then rub in turpentine for three days, after which there is a break for two weeks. After the third time I forgot about the disease forever.

If blisters appear on the body, you should wait until they go away.

This recipe was given to the factory doctor, and he used it when treating workers. Gum turpentine helped even with advanced radiculitis.

ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION

Parsley milk.

I learned about this recipe for the treatment of arterial hypertension many years ago from a student.

Wash the parsley roots well

scrape and chop finely. Add 2 cups of milk to 1 cup of chopped roots, then simmer the mixture over low heat until half the liquid remains. Cool, squeeze, put in the refrigerator. If your blood pressure rises above normal, drink the entire mixture.

After drinking this “parsley milk”, you should not drink alcohol for at least 2 months. The recipe helped me and many friends!

Recently, Japanese actor Miki Ryosuke used an interesting method that helped him lose 13 kg and 12 cm from his waist in just a few weeks. This result was a side effect of the exercise prescribed to him by doctors for back pain. Moreover, performing this exercise takes the Japanese only 2 minutes a day. Ryosuke called it the long breathing diet. The technique is to take a certain position, inhale for three seconds, and then exhale forcefully for seven seconds. Most European doctors support the use of breathing exercises for weight loss and explain how they work as follows: fat is made up of oxygen, carbon and hydrogen. When the oxygen we inhale reaches fat cells, it breaks them down into their constituents (carbon and water). Therefore, the more oxygen our bodies use, the more fat we burn. The exercise must be performed every day for 2–10 minutes. Stand up and move one leg forward and the other back. Now you need to tighten your buttocks and transfer your weight to your back leg. Begin to inhale slowly for 3 seconds, raising your arms above your head. Then exhale forcefully for 7 seconds, while tensing all the muscles of the body. In addition, as experts say, this technique will strengthen the core muscles and increase metabolism.

Raise your pelvis, crawl backwards on your chest, like a scared cat crawling out from under a fence. 5. Siberian chiropractors recommend the following exercise. Rest your hands on the edge of the table, your back and legs straight. Move your pelvis as far back as possible, bend over, then straighten up and lean back as much as possible. Throw your head back. Straighten your arms. (Fig. 4.) EXERCISES WHICH PAUL BRAGG RECOMMENDS 1. Lie face down on the floor, lift and arch your back. The body rests only on the palms and toes. The pelvis should be located above the head. Head down. Place your feet shoulder-width apart. Straighten your knees and elbows. Lower your pelvis almost to the floor. Raise your head and sharply throw it back. Do this exercise slowly. Lower your pelvis as low as possible, and then lift it as high as possible, arching your back upward. As a result, the spine relaxes. 2. Lie face down on the floor. Lift your pelvis and arch your back. The body rests on the palms and toes. Arms and legs are straight. Rotate your pelvis as far as possible to the left, lowering your left side as low as possible, and then to the right. Do not bend your arms and legs. Make movements slowly and constantly think about stretching the spine. Exercise stimulates the nerves going to the liver and kidneys. 3. Sit on the floor, resting on your outstretched straight arms, located slightly behind. Legs are bent. Raise your pelvis. The body rests on spread bent legs and straight arms. Raise your pelvis until your spine is horizontal. Lower yourself to the starting position. The spinal column relaxes from top to bottom. 4. Lie on the floor on your back. Legs extended, arms to the sides. Bend your knees, pull them to your chest and wrap your arms around them. Hold this torso position for five seconds. Without lowering your arms, try to push your knees and hips away from your chest. At the same time, raise your head and try to touch your chin to your knees. This exercise is especially effective for the part of the spine where the nerves that control the stomach are concentrated. 5. Lie face down on the floor. Raise your pelvis high, arching your back, lowering your head and leaning on straight arms and legs. In this position, walk around the room. The exercise stretches the spine and brings relief to the colon by stimulating the corresponding nerves. The best thing you can do for your spine is to hang with your hands on a bar. Performing exercises is strictly individual. At first, you should do each exercise no more than two or three times. Every other day, increase to five or more times. You must regularly complete the entire program every day. Once your body has seen improvements, you can reduce the exercise to twice a week to keep your spine flexible and relaxed. Some people feel favorable changes within a week, which become permanent after two to three weeks. However, keep in mind that changes in the spine have occurred over many years and nothing can be corrected in a short time. Health is like money: it is spent quickly, but earned with great difficulty. There is nothing better for the spine than yoga gymnastics. Its peculiarity lies in the fact that each exercise combines three elements: a pose in which parts of the body and internal organs tense or relax; full breathing through the nose; concentration of attention on the organ or part of the body that is affected by the pose. When performing exercises, you should adhere to the following rules: 1. Gradual transition from simple to complex. 2. Regularity of classes. 3. Moderation in everything. I do not set myself the task of describing the complex complexes of the yoga system. Here are some of the most useful exercises. Sun Pose Stand straight with your feet together. Slowly raise your arms up and inhale. Tilt your torso back into an arc. Hold the air in this position for 10 seconds. Straighten up, exhale. Repeat the exercise. Triangle (Fig. 5) Stand straight, spread your legs 50 cm. Stretch your arms forward at shoulder height, palms down. Exhale as you tilt your upper body to the right. Reach your right foot with the fingertips of your right hand and raise your left hand up. Turn your head towards your outstretched arm. When straightening your body, inhale, stick out your stomach, and when bending, exhale: Hold your breath. Focus your attention on your lower back and spine. This exercise is designed to develop flexibility of the spine during lateral bending. It strengthens the vertebral muscles that support individual vertebrae, eliminates belly fat, promotes rejuvenation of the body, and has a beneficial effect on the glands of the digestive system. Those suffering from lack of appetite begin to feel hungry after a few days of exercise. Fish (Fig. 5) Sit on the floor. Take a few breaths in and out. After your last breath, begin to lean back. Lie on your back, rest your elbows on the floor, and grab your bent legs by the ankles with your hands. Raise your torso, resting your crown, elbows and buttocks on the floor. The back is arched. As you initially bend over, inhale slowly. Once in the pose, hold the air for 10 seconds. When returning to the starting position, exhale. Focus your attention on the thyroid gland. This exercise helps combat salt deposits in the spine (in the cervicocranial and lumbar regions), as well as weakening of the shoulder muscles. It improves blood circulation in these parts of the body and also improves the functioning of the thyroid gland. Cobra (Fig. 5) Lie on your stomach. Relax your muscles. Bend your arms at the elbows. They touch the floor just below the shoulders. Stretch your fingers forward. Slowly lift your body and head above your sacrum, moving them forward. At the same time, inhale slowly. As you rise, hold your breath and bend back as slowly as possible. When returning to the starting position, exhale slowly. When fixing the pose, the body should rest on the floor from the navel to the toes. When bending back, inhale for 8 seconds. Air retention in the extreme position is 16 seconds. Exhale and return to the starting position - 16 seconds. For beginners, do not hold in air. At the beginning of the pose, remain for 5-8 seconds. Repeat the exercise 3 times. Exercise eliminates back pain caused by overwork, restores the nervous system, and activates the activity of the kidneys. Twist (Fig. 5) Sit with your legs extended forward. Straighten your back. Bend your right leg and bring it over your extended left leg, placing it on the outside of your left knee. With your right hand, touch the toes of your bent right leg. Stretch your left arm and press it to your body - it serves as a support. Turn your body and head as far as possible to the left. Do not hold your breath while performing the pose. Perform slowly, three times in each direction. The pose protects against stiffness of the spine, normalizes dislocations of the vertebrae - consequences of incorrect posture, maintains flexibility of the lower back, and has a beneficial effect on the liver, pancreas, spleen, intestines and kidneys. The lower back muscles become elastic. Bow (Fig. 5) Lie on your stomach. Stretch your legs. Pull your knees up as much as possible, grab your ankles with your hands. Raise your head. The upper back should form an arch up to the bend in the knees. Take a deep breath. The entire body should rest on the navel area. Hold the air and remain in this position for as long as possible. You can rock back and forth a few times, like in a cradle. Returning to the starting position, release your ankles and exhale. The pose has a beneficial effect on the spinal column and all the nerve centers around it. Useful for people leading a sedentary lifestyle, stimulates the activity of the endocrine glands. Particularly beneficial for the thyroid, pancreas, kidneys and adrenal glands. The position preserves normal sexual activity for both men and women for a long time. The position is contraindicated if the thyroid gland or any other endocrine gland is overactive. To maintain correct posture, it is useful to lean your heels, buttocks, back, and shoulders against the wall, then walk around, trying to maintain your posture. COLLECTION OF HERBS RECOMMENDED FOR SPINAL DISEASES Valerian (root) 1 part Motherwort (herb) 1 part Hawthorn (fruits) 1 part Horse chestnut (flowers) 1 part Parsley (herb) 1 part Pour 2 tablespoons of the collection with 0.5 liters of boiling water. Leave in a thermos for 1-2 hours. Take half a glass 2 times a day. Psychics believe that under normal conditions a person’s energy rises along the spine from the area located in the coccyx area upward. Violations of this movement of energy - traffic jams, barriers to the rise of energy, lead to serious health problems, forming foci of osteochondrosis, radiculitis and other diseases. So, for example, if the plug is at the level of the first cervical vertebrae, this leads to migraine. The energy channel should be cleared of blockages. The absence of traffic jams in it is a guarantee that at least half of the various colds will disappear.

Fear lives in the legs: a mirror image in emotions in our body Imagine: you are sitting in the control room of a huge nuclear power plant and, as soon as one of the hundreds of available devices begins to blink, ring or otherwise give you an alarm signal, you turn it off in frustration - so as not to irritate. Or - if you have Scandinavian composure - do not turn it off, but continue to calmly solve the crossword puzzle. You don’t have to describe the consequences - your imagination will tell you. You wonder - what kind of wild fantasy? But this, to put it mildly, careless dispatcher is you. Don't believe me? Our body is such a complex and perfect mechanism that a nuclear power plant in comparison is like an elementary sewing machine: after all, man designed and built it a long time ago, but, thank God, he hasn’t bothered to create a body on his own from one single cell. And this sophisticated mechanism constantly talks to us, every second gives us various, and vitally important, signals - “Don’t eat so much sweets!”, “You can’t stand this person!”, “Finally, give me a break!” - and others, much more complex. And how do we react to these signals? At best, we go to the doctor - let him treat us with pills and injections; at worst, we “pull ourselves together” and try to continue living as if nothing is happening. At the same time, we do not make a single attempt to communicate with our own body - and by the way, under no circumstances is it capable of acting to our detriment. How are we different from the notorious dispatcher? Perhaps only by the scale of the disaster. And even then only at first glance - we are the only ones on our own. What does our dispatcher urgently need to do while he is still alive? Right. Study the instrument readings and remember what they mean. After all, our ancestors once knew how to do this. “This gives me a headache”, “grind my teeth with rage”, “tears form in my throat”, “swallow the insult”, “carry it on my shoulders”, “breathe deeply”, “goosebumps run down my back”, “ not sparing your belly”, “your knees are shaking from fear”, “to stand firmly on your own two feet”... This is exactly about them - about the signals of our body. And to understand what they mean, you only need to know the law of conservation of energy. Simply put: everything that happens in our body is exclusively purposeful - otherwise why would we waste energy? - and if the body lacks one thing, there is no doubt that it will make up for it in another. Let's try to see this in the most familiar, everyday manifestations of our body. Imagine a fallen three-year-old whose mother is absolutely convinced that well-behaved children should not scream loudly. Having hit himself, the little man cries, as expected, and his mother, like an angry fury, hisses: “Shut up now!” The baby is hurt, hurt, and most importantly, scared: his mother doesn’t love him now! The child, of course, is not yet able to form the simplest conclusion: “When I freely express my feelings, my mother does not love me, which means I need to restrain these feelings.” However, if such a scene is repeated - and, unfortunately, it usually is repeated - the child learns this lesson at least at the level of a simple conditioned reflex. And after some time, he will try to restrain his rightful roar of pain. And his tiny body, in order to help its owner, will begin to strain and squeeze his neck, so as not to let out seditious tears. As an adult, the former three-year-old toddler will definitely experience serious difficulties in expressing the simplest and most natural feelings - declaring his love, shouting, crying... Mom may no longer be alive, but her lessons, alas, are effective. A person swallows tears, words, screams, resentment, he is choked by anger - and all this, by the way, is in full accordance with folklore. And all because at the right moment, a tension that has already become familiar and imperceptible arises in his throat, which prevents all of the above from escaping. So much for the law of conservation of energy. Earnestly? However, it could be different. Do you happen to know a dentist? If so, ask if he has come across patients with teeth worn down to the very root? It is unlikely that he will say that every second person is like that, but he will definitely remember several people. By the way, have you personally, after some difficult conversation, when you were forced to remain silent, holding back your anger, feel tired in your jaws? Now imagine that for someone, gritting your teeth and enduring is a habitual way of behavior, the only possible option for reacting to any negative emotions. Feelings are bursting out, and for some reason he once decided for himself that he would never let them out. That is, his head decided it - it understands so well what is good and what is bad! And her poor, trouble-free body helps her - but, by the way, to her own detriment. After all, only the head, trying to make decisions on its own, is capable of harming us - without its help the body usually does not succeed (remember how painfully Martin Eden at the end of the book tries to deceive his body and still drown himself). It would seem so simple - a person read these lines, realized everything and wanted to try differently: “That’s it, from tomorrow I say what I think, cry and scream when I want, and throw out my aggression on those around me in bucketfuls.” No matter how it is... At the decisive moment, it doesn’t matter either your voice will fail, or you won’t be able to unclench your teeth, or the words will get stuck in your throat. Do you know why? SCARY After all, it is fear - whether we realize it or not - that is behind the inability to express our feelings - the fear of being rejected, misunderstood, lonely, funny, not like everyone else... Remember, by the way, “your knees shake from fear”? Moreover, the psychological meaning of this expression is most closely related to what is hidden in the saying “to stand firmly on your own two feet.” The importance of legs is obvious from elementary mechanics: legs are what we can lean on in life (whatever it is - our loved ones, profession, ourselves...). What happens to us when there is no support? That's right - we're scared. We lose our peace of mind. But a person is something whole, and everything that happens in our soul inevitably receives its mirror image in the body. We, without knowing it, begin to strain our legs, trying to feel for additional support under them, to physically compensate for the lack of confidence, protection, and security. Hence, at best, trembling knees, and at worst, constant joint pain, as doctors say, of “unclear etiology,” chronic fatigue in the legs and other troubles. And this is where one extremely interesting question arises. Let's say a person in these situations finds out his problems - what should he do with this information? The answer is simple: and here the main assistant is your own body. How to turn to him for help, how to be able to hear the answer, how, finally, to take advantage of this help - this is a topic for conversation with a psychologist. And not with just any psychologist. It turns out that there is such a fascinating area of ​​psychological knowledge - body-oriented psychotherapy. And don’t be afraid of the word “psychotherapy”; it most often has nothing to do with mental illness, but with the most common problems – ours. Surely you found something painfully familiar in the above sayings? And body-oriented psychotherapy - unusually pleasant, by the way - can give you access to those endless resources that are hidden in one of the most perfect creations of nature - our body, so dear and - seemingly - familiar. Interesting? Still would! Do you want to try it yourself first? Just keep in mind that without the deepest and most sincere attention and absolute and respectful trust in your body, you shouldn’t even try. Nothing will work out. So, have you made up your mind? Do you have interest and love for your own body - whatever it may be? Then let's begin. PRACTICE: Allow two hours for our experiment - preferably at the beginning of the day. It is important that your thoughts during these two hours are occupied only with your body. Other problems will wait. If they don’t want to wait, postpone the experiment until better times. You are at home alone, comfortably dressed - or completely undressed; The main thing is that nothing rubs, stings or distracts anywhere. You don't need music at all in this situation. Even turn off your phone. First - and perhaps most difficult: find the position that is most comfortable for you. Not the most familiar, but the most convenient at this very moment. Try not to invent a pose, but rather look for it with your body. Look for it slowly, tastefully, letting your body feel each option. When you feel that every part of the body is in complete comfort and does not want anything else, you have found what you are looking for. Now stay in this pose for some time. Take a kind of excursion - what is tense in your body now, what is relaxed; where it’s warm, where it’s cool, and where it’s even hot; what areas of the body come into contact with other objects - clothing, floor, chair, wall, carpet, etc.; which of these touches are stronger and which are weaker. Your consciousness is now just a dispassionate recording device, and there is nothing bad or good, right or wrong in your body. It is what it is. Try to treat him this way for the first time in your life. How do you like this? Do you think it was an exercise? Nothing like this. For now, you just said hello to your body and paid tribute to it. You want it to help you get to the emotions that until now you have struggled to bury in it? Then, as we remember, we need to start with fear. That is, from the feet. Very slowly, continuing to observe everything that happens in the body, stand up. Legs are almost shoulder-width apart, feet are parallel, knees are relaxed and slightly bent. Rock a little, still slowly, just to feel how subtly and accurately the muscles in your legs help you maintain your balance. You have something to rely on, don’t you? Now imagine how high above the earth’s surface you are. Maybe you are separated from her by ten floors or only a basement - it doesn’t matter. Feel how the floor on which you rest with your feet holds all your weight and does not allow you to fall down there... Did you feel how your body instantly filled with heaviness at this very thought? Wiggle a little more - how do your supports behave? Like? That's it. Now, just as slowly, lower yourself to the floor and lie on your back. Bend your knees and place them firmly on the floor. Close your eyes and listen to your breathing. Try relaxing your lower jaw and inhaling through your nose, exhaling through your slightly open mouth. And after a minute, do the hardest thing - add sound to the exhalation noise. Any. Fill your entire exhalation with this sound. Hear your voice. And - continue to sound. It may not work out right away - that's natural. We can lie with words, but we can’t lie with sound. It just won't work. Sound is our very honest self-expression. So it can be a little scary at first. Or maybe not. In any case, you are not risking anything now. And when you manage to start sounding natural, and you finally start to enjoy it, experiment. Be as loud as possible - and then as quiet as possible. Taste your lowest sound, and then your highest, most unpleasant and most pleasant. And don’t rush, let yourself feel every new sound, every new sensation - because now you are expressing yourself!

UNUSUAL PROPERTIES OF HUMAN FINGERS Do you know what will happen if you pull your ring finger for 20 seconds? There is an interesting science - reflexology, which studies bioactive points located on the palms and fingers, as well as on the feet and even on the ears. An extensive network of these active points represents invisible levers that control the state of the entire human body. It’s not for nothing that they say that our health is in our own hands. Fingers will not only tell you about diseases. Each finger is responsible for a specific organ and is associated with a person’s emotional state and energy. Therefore, exercises and massage of the fingers and palms will help cope with some diseases, especially since there are no contraindications to such an unusual treatment. 💥 Thumb: anxiety, headaches. The thumb, like an anchor, is responsible for all decisions. It is closely related to human emotions, namely anxiety, depression, and increased anxiety. The thumb points are closely related to the spleen and stomach. If you feel depressed and depressed, or have a headache and unusual nervousness, grab your thumb and apply pressure. Just not too much! You don't want to hurt yourself, do you? Do the exercise for 3-5 minutes. More is possible, there are no contraindications. 💥 Index finger: loss of spirit, muscle pain. The index finger is closely associated with fear and embarrassment. If we talk about internal organs, then this finger has a direct connection with the kidneys. According to a study conducted by the University of Minnesota, patients with kidney disease experienced significant improvement when reflexology was included in their treatment program. In addition, massaging your index finger will reduce muscle pain and reduce discomfort in the body. 💥 Middle finger: anger, fatigue. If you feel tired, try massaging your middle finger. The middle finger is directly associated with anger and irritability. In addition, massaging this finger will help get rid of liver problems. Such exercises are also effective because massage instantly improves blood circulation, while eliminating anxiety. 💥 Ring finger: negative emotions, indigestion. If you feel bad, as if all your energy has been sucked out of you, pay attention to your ring finger. Moderate pressure on this finger will have a beneficial effect on the digestive and respiratory functions of the body. While performing the exercise, try to remain calm and monitor your breathing. 💥 Little finger: nervousness and stress. The little finger is responsible for how we see ourselves in this world, what place we occupy and how we feel. Simply put, it's about self-esteem. Maybe you criticize yourself too much? Leave negative emotions, breathe deeply and massage your little finger! This exercise will be very useful if you are experiencing body pain or feel increased nervousness. 💥 Palm: nausea, tension in the body. Press the fingers of one hand into the palm of the other hand. Take three slow breaths in and out. You can also make rotational movements. The palms are responsible for the functioning of most internal organs. In addition, palm massage will help cope with dizziness and gastrointestinal problems. 💥 Hands: blood circulation, concentration. To calm down and concentrate on something important, press your palms together and apply gentle pressure. This exercise will not only help put your thoughts and feelings in order, but will also help improve blood circulation, and good blood circulation, as you know, is one of the signs of the health of the body as a whole.

In the very first lines of “Columns,” which is probably pretty boring to readers (and I certainly am - Ed.), I thank everyone who responded to my SOS signal in the sense that with the beginning of the gardening and dacha season, the flow of editorial mail is sharply decreasing. I'm very glad that I was heard! Today, many letters begin like this: “We read your “Column”, which says that during the gardening and dacha season, editorial mail is noticeably reduced in volume. We hasten to the rescue...”

You know, it’s wonderful - “to the rescue.” This inspires us and gives us confidence that readers need us, are relevant, and in demand. In principle, everything is correct: we work for you, help as much as we can, and in many cases, when necessary, we rush to the rescue. With your wonderful letters, you help us survive in the endless and stormy sea of ​​competition among similar publications, the number of which keeps growing and growing.

And good would be something new, original, independently invented. But no: all the same folk recipes rewritten dozens of times, wandering from publication to publication, only with different signatures of the authors and, as a rule, without an address. “It's boring, girls.” - as a famous literary hero once used to say.

By the way, funny story. I recently spoke with our distributor in Germany, Klaus Kopelmann, about a letter received from a German reader.

Do you want to laugh? - Klaus asked me.

“Of course,” I answered vaguely.

I was once in Russia and in a conversation with a journalist I mentioned the “Healthy Lifestyle” newsletter.

“I know,” she said, “this newspaper.” They invited me to work.

And what?

I didn't go.

Don't you know?.. They write all the letters themselves.

Frankly, I fell away. Stone Age. Checking is a piece of cake. Write a letter to any published address, and, as a rule, they will answer you.

And one more thing about addresses. More and more often, readers justify their reluctance to publish their addresses with fears of receiving letters from rabid sectarians, especially from Jehovah's Witnesses. Something like: “Rewrite the letter 20 times (I myself have received such letters. - Editor’s note) and send it to addresses known to you... Otherwise... “The following is a list of all possible misfortunes that will befall those who do not want to carry out the order . Yes, yes, I firmly know that this is bullshit, and yet it’s unpleasant... I don’t understand why the Orthodox Church is not fighting this vile phenomenon and the state is standing on the sidelines. People are intimidated, their lives are interfered with, and a different faith is imposed on them. I think these are all crimes against people. For this reason, I appeal to the readers: there is no need not only to respond to these letters, but also to read them, and I’m not even talking about rewriting and spreading bullshit. Do not be afraid of any promised heavenly punishments. Throw dirty writings in the trash and live in peace.

Of course, as always, I didn’t have time to say everything I wanted. But here’s what’s required: I advise readers to pay attention to the material “A Stool for a Long-Liver.” While our, and not only our, scientists are struggling to read the genetic code and search for substances, or I don’t know what, in order to significantly prolong human life (I’m sure, not for everyone and for a lot of money. - Ed.), the simple truths of reserve medical colonel Valery Vasilyevich Zhivotov will allow you to live the life measured by nature in health and full consciousness.

Good health to everyone.

Anatoly KORSHUNOV.

Your letters…

So that you have satisfaction from letters, and in the summer there are fewer of them, as you write, I decided to fill this gap.

“Healthy lifestyle” gives me pleasure and helps me communicate. Disperses the clouds, and in the sun one can think better. Nice! Healthy!

Now let's get down to business. The Year of the Family is underway, October 5 is World Teachers' Day. I'm tying this together.

Who has been dear to me since birth? Mom and teacher!

Parents and a teacher are one family, with the same concerns, with the same goal of raising and educating a citizen for the good of the Fatherland. Thanks to the teachers for raising my daughters and grandchildren. I know it’s immodest to write about myself, but as an example...

My father died in the first months of the war. I was born without him. My mother raised us alone - four sons. What have I not endured with my mother and brothers! I won’t write, my generation knows.

It’s a pity that young people don’t delve into this - they don’t want to know anything about our past. But I raised my three daughters in this direction as best I could.

I studied with a primary school teacher who had the Order of Lenin! Honored Teacher of the RSFSR Semyon Petrovich Demshin. I considered him a father.

Poor ragamuffin, I, having nothing, not even a bag for books, walked to school 2.5 km away in any weather. In snowstorms and frosts, the teacher left us at school. He would give him a place to sleep and even feed him. Well, how can you forget him? I am writing memories about him. And about mom, about father. This is one family.

I respect all teachers, all those who give themselves to children with their souls, and do not sit through the lesson.

Address: Mikhalev N.N., 186500 Karelia, Belomorsk, st. Arkhangelskaya, 29, apt. 7.

"HLS": A wonderful letter, our dear N.N.! You are right: parents and teachers are one family. By the way, probably 30 percent of our subscribers are teachers!

I was introduced to “HLS” by a very good, friendly doctor at the local dispensary “Golu-

battle carriage", where my husband and I vacationed in 2001. Since then, I have not parted with the messenger. We have a good mailbox, and I regularly subscribe to the newspaper. A. The postman of the 50th post office, Lilya Shulaeva, does not let me forget about the subscription : she will come, she will remind you, she will sign. Thanks to her! Over the years, I have encouraged many to subscribe to “Healthy Lifestyle”, I give it to them to read, I give it to them if I happen to buy it.

I am a pensioner, I am 71 years old, I love to read. I always have the Healthy Lifestyle newsletter with me. I read from the first line to the last, re-read it 2-3 times and always with a pen in hand to emphasize what is important to me. I have all the newspapers in folders by year. I often re-read issues from previous years. I am maintaining my own catalogue.

I love reading the pages of the "Creative Club". I like poetry. They say laughter improves health, and when you read a funny story, you laugh for days. For example, this was the case when I read TA’s story in “ZOZH” (No. 9, 2008). Kosilova from the Chelyabinsk region "Victim of experiments."
