    The Ayurveda tradition rapidly developed with the writing of the Ashtangahrdayam around sixth or seventh C.E. as well as many other classical texts such as the Caraka Samhita. The Ashtangahrdayam, specifically, allowed for the classification of its traditions and was a notable work of writing, partially responsible for the apex of the Classical Era (Menon & Spudich). Indians were highly influenced by the Arabs and Persians, whom they learned of many herbal plants for medical uses. Furthermore, doctors entering the country taught regional physicians new healing…

    I have lived on the Turtle Mountain Indian Reservation here in Belcourt, ND basically my whole life. I am ashamed to say I do not know a lot about my culture. However, I am not ashamed about my beliefs. I was raised in a Christian home we went to the Assembly of God church every Sunday, Sunday night and Wednesdays. My family was very dedicated to the church, with that being said I was not allowed to participate in the Native American ways. I’ve heard people talk in school about the medicine wheel, dream catchers and other things and I heard stories from my great grandfather about Native rallies. I have never heard of the sacred tree but in reading it reminded me of the movie Avatar. I remember watching Avatar and feeling like they were telling the story of my people. I remember feeling very connected even thou I never grew up that way, this is how the book made me feel again connected.…

    Ayurveda is an ancient Indian medical science. It is a natural health care system thought to be the "mother of healing". Unlike modern western medicine, which focuses on treating the symptoms of an illness, Ayurveda concentrates on the source of the disease using natural treatments to eliminate the root cause and promote the patient`s inherent self-healing abilities by improving immunity. The most extreme example of illness caused by lack of purpose is cancer. Ayurveda considers cancer an emotionally caused…

    Principles for nutritional medicine and naturopathy can be traced back to ancient practices. Refer-ences for the use of food as medicine can be found in ancient medical texts of Egypt that describe the use of animal, vegetable and mineral substances as medicine to treat diseases (Di Stefano 2006, p.5). Although the term naturopathy stems from the late 19th century, its philosophical beginnings can also be found in Egypt with the earliest written records of healing practices. The supernatural approach to medicine and the belief that disease is caused by angered gods,…

    It goes for approach of social, physical and spiritual dimensions of health and life. Herbal medicine and knowledge of plants is not the domain of any particular group; Western medicine has been incorporated into this system at the same rate and knowledge as herbal medicine. Medicinal plants are mainly used symptomatically for coughs and colds, pains and aches. Some are used as dressings for wounds and sores. Two way medicine is the term that has been coined by Aboriginal health workers to describe a bicultural approach to health care. It is based on the principle that “ if you can use what is best in modern medicine together with what is best in traditional healing, the combination may be better than either one alone” (Werner…
