Alternative Well-Being of the Month for November 2024

Alternatif Bien-Être du mois de novembre 2024
Alternative Wellness of the Month for November 


Dear readers,

What if the belief that Alzheimer's disease is neurodegenerative in origin is keeping us away from real solutions to prevent it?

What if supportive care, considered complementary, was actually essential to curing cancer?

What if it's better to give up toilet paper for our health?

What if Tibetan medicine practitioners were right to refuse to treat certain patients?

What if a simple photograph could transform our inner state?

If you want to put an end to preconceived ideas, even if it means giving up certain beliefs or habits in terms of health, this issue of Alternative Well-Being is for you!

Summary:

  • Health investigation : Alzheimer's – what we know… and what we don't always say

Called senile dementia until the 1980s , Alzheimer's disease still has no cure. But is it really a disease? This month, Dr. Luc Perino, a professor of medical history, takes stock of the false hopes that would be better abandoned and the real means at our disposal to deal with them.

Discover his enlightening words in these pages 3 to 8.

  • Alternative consumption : Goodbye toilet paper ! Discover 5 healthy and ecological alternatives

Toilet paper is such a part of our daily lives that we hardly ever question its use. Yet, most of humanity does without it, which is much better for the environment and for our health.

Discover the solutions to replace it in pages 9 to 11.

  • Prevent and cure: Cancer: what if supportive care was essential? ?

In recent years, supportive care designed to make daily life easier for cancer patients has been booming. However, several studies suggest that, far from being secondary, some of these treatments can play an essential role in the healing process.

Annie Casamayou gives you an update on the most solid approaches in pages 12 to 15.

  • Psycho & Soma: Cancer – The Question of Meaning (episode 2)

What if the onset of cancer was linked to our inner suffering? This month, Dr. Philippe Dransart is investigating the type of emotions which, beyond the classic risk factors, could well preside over the occurrence of this disease.

It reveals several keys to unraveling them in pages 16 and 17.

  • Secrets herbalist : Savory, an underestimated power

Although part of the famous blend of Provençal herbs alongside the fragrant thyme, rosemary, basil, oregano and marjoram, and despite its great medicinal interest, savory is largely forgotten in herbalism.

Herbalist Caroline Gayet reveals her secrets to you in these pages 18 and 19.

  • I tested for you: I tested Human Design

Between astrology, Kabbalah, Yi-King and numerology, Human Design offers an energetic reading of the body to make the right decisions and improve our relationships, our living conditions and our health. Esoteric fantasy or real tool for self-knowledge? Emmanuel Duquoc put this system to the test, which appeared in 1987.

He will share his results with you in pages 20 to 22.
 

  • Healing Journey : Vanessa Ballestra, a warrior against Verneuil's disease

Suffering from Verneuil's syndrome since childhood, Vanessa Ballestra has had to deal with chronic pain and undergo multiple surgeries. To improve her quality of life, in addition to innovative medical treatments, she has used several natural approaches, until she has significantly alleviated her symptoms.

She shares her solutions in pages 23 to 25.
 

  • Living in the rhythm of November

Philippe Chavanne offers you a selection of seasonal recipes and remedies to combine culinary pleasure and health.

  • Health mavericks : Meyling Ho, shaman photographer

Coming from a lineage of shamans, trained in traditional Chinese medicine and kinesiology, this Chinese woman who arrived in France at the age of 7 discovered her connection with the invisible through photography.

Sandra Franrenet introduces us to this atypical woman and her photographs which speak to us of another dimension, in pages 28 and 29.
 

  • Health from elsewhere: The ethical lessons of Tibetan medicine

Unlike a Western doctor, a Tibetan traditional practitioner does not agree to treat all patients. To benefit from his services, patients must meet certain very specific conditions. Shocking?

Anthropologist Aline Mercan reveals the logic behind this apparently uncharitable attitude in pages 30 and 31.
