Continually done, for even a short while, brings noticeable health benefits that will make it easy to include in your daily regime. Taoist meditations begin with transforming the negative emotions back into positive life force.

This workshop will give valuable techniques for stress reduction, rejeuvenation and well-being. **Detoxification with Wheatgrass** - *on Friday, January 8th 1999* Wheatgrass has a high content of chlorophyll and is one of the finest blood builders and body rejuvenators. Wheatgrass is one of the richest natural sources of vitamins A & C, and has all known minerals. Because of its high nutritional value it is useful for: all chronic disorders, improves blood sugar problems, helps sores heal faster, washes drug deposits from the body, helps purify the liver, helps fight bacteria, helps counteract toxins which have been ingested and many other benefits for well-being. It is easy to grow in your own living quarters. The daily use of wheatgrass juice will add quality to your life. Clear step by step directions on the growing and usage of wheatgrass will be dealt with in this workshop. **Preparing yourelf for Pregnancy and Childbirth** - *on Saturday, January 9th 1999* Despite the fact that medical care is "better than ever before", we are as a race full of more disease and degeneration than ever. Planned pregnancy is the best way to insure that the mother and baby are in optimum health. When the mother prepares her vessel for conception by cleansing both her body and mind she consciosly raises her vibration to call in an enlightened soul. Once pregnant she nourishes the new soul with a high quality diet as well as with uplifting thoughts of beauty and tranquility to guide both her and baby through an easy pregnancy and birth. Childbirth preparation gives a woman the necessary tools that she will need during her labor, and for her days as a new mother. The more information that she knows the better she is able to cope with the demands made from her changing body and emotions that come with this new phase of life. JULIA JUS Julia Jus, M.D(M.A), DIHom, lives with her children in Chiang Mai. She is a colon therapist and practices, holistic health and homoeopathy. Her company, Dragon Mountain Herbs offers a line of herbal and nutritional products. A note on this archive. The history section of this website is drawn from a body of legacy content originally compiled by John Davis, former manager of the International Vegetarian Union. It represents his curation of historical material, and in places includes passages written by him directly. Over the years, the IVU website has migrated between several different hosting servers. In the course of these migrations, a number of PDF files were unfortunately lost, and **some links to PDF documents may no longer function**. Where this is the case, we have chosen to leave the original link text in place, as it may itself carry information of historical value. - Hits: 906 ### Vegan Recipes - #### [Ethiopian Ful](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/item/ethiopian-ful.html "Ethiopian Ful") [Breakfast and brunch](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/category/breakfast-and-brunch.html) [Main course](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/category/main-course-for-lunch-and-dinner.html) [Ethiopia](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/category/ethiopian.html) [African](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/category/african.html) -
