African Holistic Health by Dr. Llaila O. Afrika (E-Book) African Holistic Health by Dr. Llaila O. Afrika (E-Book)

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), it has been estimated that “about 80% of the population in developing countries depends on traditional medicine for their Primary Health Care (PHC) needs.” What is presently known as ‘conventional medicine’ has its origins in the West. The first principle is diagnosis followed by complex treatment procedures using plants from the bush, followed by many rituals, the ultimate aim being to cure disease. Serious or chronic illnesses require “chizimba,” which means sealing a disease or illness away forever. This involves killing a lizard and burning the heart with roots of certain trees and grinding with charcoal. Tiny cuts are made on the ailing area and left breast and the mixture rubbed into the cuts. Try “deskercise.” Interrupt the hours you might spend sitting at your desk by grabbing some light hand weights. Do bicep curls or overhead extensions while you’re in between calls.
