Alternative Well-Being No. 214: your July issue

 

Dear subscribers,

F
or this first issue of the summer, I am delighted to announce the birth of a brand new column, Psycho & Soma. I am convinced that it will evoke eureka moments in many minds.

When, after experiencing discomfort, injury, or illness, we intimately grasp its meaning, we suddenly experience a sense of clarity. The emotion hidden behind the symptom can then manifest. If we welcome it, then we take the first step toward inner healing that will significantly alleviate the symptoms. Psycho & Soma aims to promote this type of event.

To inaugurate it, we invited a great man of psychosomatics, Dr. Philippe Dransart. A homeopathic doctor, he is the author of several works dedicated to understanding the meaning of illnesses. The first of these, La Maladie seeks to cure me , probably contributed  to an opening of the collective consciousness to the still too secret language of the body. However, Philippe Dransart did not receive specialized training in this area. He forged his understanding of the link between emotions and illnesses following a significant event in his own life: the death of his mother from cancer in 1968. "The emotional origin of her illness became obvious to me." , he told us. From that day on, the young doctor has never stopped trying to unravel the mystery. His contribution today is not the result of theoretical elaboration but of personal research at every moment, not only in books but also and above all in the field of human suffering.

In his lectures, as in his writings, the Grenoble-based homeopath does not seek to scientifically support his arguments. Paradoxically, this is what makes them so powerful. His sole objective is to enable everyone to grasp— or rather, to be grasped by—the evidence of meaning, if the inner availability is there. His approach is as subtle as it is rigorous.

Summary:

  • Health investigation: Hypersensitive, HPI, ADHD: What are we really talking about?
Neuroatypicality encompasses brain characteristics as diverse as hyperactivity, hypersensitivity, and high intellectual potential. However, not all of them cause disorders. What does neuroscience say about it? Which cases are problematic? How can we best support them? Annie Casamayou investigated this complex case on pages 3 to 8.
  • Alternative consumption: Ice cream, don't buy just air and additives!
Between colorings, preservatives, artificial flavors, glucose-fructose syrup, and added air, choosing good ice cream can be tricky. How can you distinguish quality ingredients from their substitutes? Responsible consumption expert Rémi Moha tells you everything and offers his selection on pages 9 to 11.
  • Prevent and cure: Fractures, what if osteoporosis was not the cause?
Many women are prescribed bone density scans, calcium tablets, medications, and dairy products with every meal to reduce their risk of bone fracture. Is this advice justified? Between custom and true science, it's important to sort things out. Fabienne Burguière has done just that. She explains how to avoid the main risk factor for fracture on pages 12 to 14.
  • Psycho & Soma – What is the illness trying to tell me?
"It itches me . " "It eats away at me . " "It burns me!" But what is it that makes us itch, eat away at us, or burn us? Illness carries a message that we resist. What if we learned its language? This is the initiation that Dr. Philippe Dransart offers you on pages 15 and 16.
  • Secrets from herbalist: Boswellia, an incense resin that has it all
In herbal medicine, we're accustomed to using plants in the form of leaves, flowers, roots, or bark. But today, herbalist Caroline Gayet is talking about the resin that exudes from a tree: frankincense. She reveals its many virtues on pages 17 to 19.
  • I tested it for you: dynamic neurofeedback
Neurofeedback is a technique that involves sending feedback to the brain about its activity so that it learns to modulate it. The tool remained at the experimental stage in Europe until the emergence of non -medical neurofeedback from Canada in 1999. Following enthusiastic feedback from practitioners, Emmanuel Duquoc conducted his own study. His results are on pages  20 to 22.
  • Healing Journey: Alexander Munz, the Extraordinary Power of Fascia Movement
Her technique, based on simple rotary movements, has transformed thousands of lives, relieving pain for which traditional treatments were insufficient. Clélia Fortier met Alexandre Munz, former principal dancer and founder of this revolutionary approach. Pages 23 to 25.
  • Living in July
Philippe Chavanne reveals the health-giving secrets of melon. Not to mention the natural treats and seasonal remedies. Read on pages 26-27.
  • Health mavericks: Jean-Jacques Charbonier, a guide in the invisible
An anesthesiologist and resuscitator for 35 years, Dr. Jean-Jacques Charbonier now devotes himself entirely to hypnosis. More than 40,000 people have already participated in his Trans Communication Hypnotic (TCH) workshops. He shares his new discoveries with Sandra Franrenet on pages 28 and 29.
  • Health from elsewhere: Greater Celandine: The exotic uses of a plant from our region
Wart herb, considered toxic in the West, is used in a completely different way elsewhere. In the Caucasus Mountains, people don't hesitate to make anti-cancer herbal teas from it! Medical anthropologist Aline Mercan discovered this curiosity by chance... She tells you all about it on pages 30 and 31.
