“Let thy food be your medicine and your medicine be thy food”. Who hasn’t heard this quote accredited to Hippocrates the father of medicine? How many of us today still think this way? When we scoop some food into our mouths, are our thought about ‘I am nourishing myself’ or are our thoughts ‘Oh my god! I am so hungry I need to eat, now!!”
And before I continue, first let me welcome you to Aneni Herbs I am so glad you stopped by. Aneni Herbs motto is simple “Cleanse and Nourish”. Our body is wise, it has been through thousands of years of evolution and it is always in the search for balance. The formulas that you will find in this website have the purpose to first cleanse the body or organ towards its combination of herbs is directed and right after, nourish it, so that the body in its infinite wisdom can restore itself to balance and to health.
The theory behind it, is that if the body is the house of the soul, then we should treat it like our home. When you move into a new house or if you find undesirable pest living in your house, first you clean in then you either move in or try to eliminate the pest. An actually most of the time the reason there are pests is because the house is not clean! Same thing with the body, if we have been ‘eating’ not healthy-clean foods eventually the body gets a disease, which is actually there to help cleanse the ‘house’.
I personally believe that perfect health depends on several factors which I have subdivided into 4 categories, all of equal importance:
- The quality of the food we eat and air we breathe
- A consistent weekly work out routine
- A positive frame of mind, optimistic thoughts
- Spiritual practice and personal connection to the divine, in which ever way you feel it suits best for you.
The herbs chosen in this website for each formula would be classified as part of ‘The quality of the food we eat’ since herbs are exactly that: food, and as food should be taken as a whole. There is no need for isolating any active component, as there is a reason why mother nature put all the parts of the plant together.
If you have any particular question, of if there any special formula you would like me to create for you, feel free to contact me at [email protected] I’ll be happy to hear from you.
Thanks for stopping by, Linda
