My
friend carries a tiny bottle of vinegar in her handbag, so at the earliest of a sign of a migraine she can take a sniff. This stops the migraine in its tracks.

When you have a health problem, your focus of attention is naturally drawn to the symptoms, and perhaps how they are stopping you from doing things in your life.

As a change from a slice of lemon in your water, try a slice of cucumber. It’s surprisingly flavoursome, and refreshing, as I discovered at a TAT Practising Presence workshop in Sweden.

Ginger has a multitude of healing properties, including: alleviating motion and morning sickness, aiding digestion, acting as a decongestant and also as a diuretic. (It also has a warming effect, so best avoided if you’re feeling hot or have high blood pressure.)

What wild fruits could you enjoy? More…
