Detox Bath For Eczema

Filed Under Care for Eczema Skin, Eczema Detox, Eczema Treatment, Natural Eczema Treatment | 1 Comment

I finally put an article together on my favourite activity for relieving the eczema itch but I forgot to alert all readers to this blog. Here it is Detox Bath For Eczema Using Dead Sea Salt

If you cannot get dead sea salt, you can also use Epsom salts (readily available in the local pharmacy). However, Epsom salts will not be as effective as dead sea salt as the latter has many properties that make it excellent for skin healing and rejuvenation.

Run a warm water bath as you need the salt to dissolve and then wait for the water to cool. Sit back and relax.

You can Heal Your Eczema By Loving Yourself

Filed Under Eczema Causes, Eczema Detox, Eczema Treatment, Natural Eczema Treatment | Leave a Comment

I’ve just finished reading this book on “You Can Heal Your Life” by Louis Hay. In her book, she recommends the idea that poor health or just about any symptoms that you are experiencing can often be linked to a low self esteem or lack of self love. Her solution is to practise saying self affirmations as often as possible throughout the day, to change your negative self talk. When you change your thoughts, you start to change your belief system and to love yourself more. Healing is then experienced at all fronts.

You may scoff at the possibility that it is possible to “cure” yourself of health issues with the use of powerful affirmations. Just like how I would have been. However, after thinking it through, here’s how I look at it: if she can cure herself of terminal cancer, then what makes us think we can’t heal ourselves of eczema?

Of course, she did not cure her cancer by mere words alone. She also followed up with detoxification, watching her diet and cutting out all processed foods. She did yoga, meditation and a whole bunch of natural therapies. In effect, she engaged herself in actions that supported her new belief.

Louis Hay documented a long list of health conditions and the affirmations to use for each of them. I’ve listed down, from her book, those that apply to various skin symptoms and diseases:

Eczema
Probable Cause: Breath-taking antagonism. Mental eruptions.
Affirmation: “Harmony and peace, love and joy surround me and indwell me. I am safe and secure.”

Skin Problems
Probable Cause: Anxiety, fear. Old, buried guck.
I am being threatened.
Affirmation: “I lovingly protect myself with thoughts of joy and peace. The past is forgiven and forgotten. I am free in this moment.”

Scabies
Probable Cause: Infected thinking. Allowing others to get under your skin.
Affirmation: “I am the living, loving, joyous experssion of life. I am my own person.”

Hives (Urticaria)
Probable Cause:Small, hidden fears. Mountains out of molehills.
Affirmation: “I bring peace to every corner of my life.”

Herpes Simplex (Herpes Labialis)
Probable Cause:Burning to bitch. Bitter words left unspoken.
Affirmation: “I think and speak only words of love. I am at peace with life.”

Cold Sores (Fever Blisters)
Probable Cause: Festering angry words and fear of expressing them.
Affirmation: “I only create peaceful experiences because I love myself. All is well.”

Itching (Pruiritis)
Probable Cause: Desires that go against the grain. Unsatisfied. Remorse. Itching to get out or get away.
Affirmation: “I am at peace just where I am. I accept my good, knowing all my needs and desires will be fulfilled.”

Rash
Probable Cause: Irritation over delays. Babyish way to get attention.
Affirmation: “I love and approve of myself. I am at peace with the process of life.”

Ringworm
Probable Cause: Allowing others to get under your skin. Not feeling good enough or clean enough.
Affirmation: “I love and approve of myself. No person, place or thing has any power over me. I am free.”

Psoriasis
Probable Cause: Fear of being hurt. Deadening the senses of the self. Refusing to accept responsibility for our own feeling.
Affirmation: “I am alive to the joys of living. I deserve and accept the very best in life. I love and approve of myself.”

“You can Heal Your Life” by Louis Hay is certainly a good book to read. It recommends an alternative angle to healing yourself from eczema. Additionally, if you are interested to find out what affirmations to use for other health conditions and what emotions they are tied to, do check her book out.
