| BASIC
PRINCIPLES OF NATURE THERAPY |
The
whole philosophy and practice of nature cure is built on three
basic principles. These principles are based on the conclusions
reached from over a century of effective naturopathic treatment
of diseases in Germany, America and Great Britain.

1. The first and most basic principle of
nature cure is that all forms of disease are due to the same
cause, namely, the accumulation of waste materials and bodily
refuse in the system. These waste materials in the healthy
individual are removed from the system through the organs
of elimination. But in the diseased person, they are steadily
pilling up in the body through years of faulty habits of living
such as wrong feeding, improper care of the body and habits
contributing to enervation and nervous exhaustion such as
worry, overwork and excesses of all kinds. |
2.
The second basic principle of nature cure is that all acute
diseases such as fevers, colds, inflammations, digestive disturbances
and skin eruptions are nothing more than self-initiated efforts
on the part of the body to throw off the accumulated waste
materials and that all chronic diseases such as heart disease,
diabetes, rheumatism, asthma, kidney disorders, are the results
of continued suppression of the acute diseases through harmful
methods such drugs, vaccines, narcotics and gland extracts.
|
3. The third principle of
nature cure is that the body contains an elaborate healing
mechanism which has the power to bring about a return to normal
condition of health, provided right methods are employed to
enable it to do so.

When
toxins accumulate, other organs such as the bowels, kidneys, skin
and lungs are overworked and cannot get rid of these harmful substances
as quickly as they are produced.
Besides this, mental
and emotional disturbances cause imbalances of the vital electric
field within which cell metabolism takes place, producing toxins.
When the soil of this electric field is disturbed, disease-causing
germs can live in it without multiplying or producing toxins.

| Methods of Nature
Cure |
The nature
cure system aims at the readjustment of the human system from abnormal
to normal conditions and functions. And adopts methods of cure which
are in conformity with the constructive principles of nature. Such
methods remove from the system the accumulation of toxic matter
and poisons without in any way injuring the vital organs of the
body.
To cure disease, the first and foremost requirement is to regulate
the diet. To get rid of accumulated toxins and restore the equilibrium
of the system, it is desirable to completely exclude acid-forming
foods, including proteins, starches, and fats, for a week or more
and to confine the diet to fresh fruits which will disinfect the
stomach and alimentary canal. If the body is overloaded with morbid
matter, as in acute disease, a complete fast for a few days may
be necessary for the elimination of toxins. Fruit juice may, however,
be taken during a fast. A simple rule is: do not eat when you are
sick, stick to a light diet of fresh fruits. Wait for the return
of the usual healthy appetite. Loss of appetite is Nature’s
warning that no burden should be placed on the digestive organs.
Another
important factor in the cure of diseases by natural methods is to
stimulate the vitality of the body. This can be achieved by using
water in various ways and at varying temperatures in the form of
packs or baths. The application of cold water, especially to the
abdomen, the set of most diseases, and to the sexual organs, through
a cold sitting (hip) bath immediate lowers body heat and stimulates
the nervous system.
Other natural methods useful in the cure of diseases are air and
subaths, exercise and massage. Air and sunbaths revive dead skin
and help maintain it in a normal condition. Exercise, especially
yogic asanas, promotes inner health and harmony and helps eliminate
all tension.
