Make Yourself Better : A Book Review







Written by Philip Weeks, published by Singing Dragon, "Make Yourself Better : A Practical Guide to Restoring Your Body's Wellbeing through Ancient Medicine" covers various disorders a human being can experience ranging from spiritual, mental, emotional and physical. Philip manages to cover extensive medical background regarding the human body, how each system operates and how a dysfunction in each system and organ affects our bodies and minds. Philip provides an extensive holistic guide in order to improve each system, if a disorder arises, as well as simply staying healthy. 

The most important aspect of this reference guide are the chapters on stress, the kidneys and adrenal glands. Stress is, generally, the root of all dysfunction. Philip includes precise, yet simple to purchase and accomplish, holistic ways to cleanse the body of built up toxins for every organ and body system.

As an expert on natural medicine, nutrition, a Master Herbalist and acupuncturist, Philip does state that if one is to detoxify the body, to make sure it is healthy to do so and observed by a medical doctor first. Such precautions are essential, as all of our bodies function differently.

Guided by Eastern Medicine and applying Western Medicine, the author provides a full account of how and why the body acts the way it does, as well as realistic solutions to rid the body of already present toxins and to avoid and dispel potential illness.

This volume is a must read for those who have no understanding of Eastern Medicine, holistic practice and the ways in which our bodies and minds function. Medically, the book is extensive in explaining, yet in simple terms, every single system and organ. 

A pleasant and shocking surprise, one will enjoy learning how "everyday" things adversely affect us, often without our knowledge. 

More importantly, after understanding your body, checking with your physician and understanding the content Philip provides, "Make Yourself Better" includes various ways to help yourself

I Am Kashmir






I Am Kashmir 

Dedicated to Shaheed Tahir from Baramulla



a
rat
a
tat
tat

ya hear that?

another round
locked, and loaded

where boys,
are forced to be
men

and women
are raped

and children,
throw
stones

until a bullet hits the skin
piercing within
the gentle flesh that God made

My skin is worn
my heart,
heavy
and my mind,
must constantly evade
the darkness

Yet I am light
and my spirit

it IS strong

it flies with the midnight moon
chasing stars
supernovas
faster than the speed of light
stronger than the wind
more powerful than the sun herself
shining

celestial majestic divinity . . .

Aged.

I am

Kashmir.

Quietly, dying


"The world is a prison for the believer .  .  . " - pbuh


There are times
i awake
and the day
she greets me
naked
pure


In all her wondrous glory

And i am grateful
for solitary breath
for limbs
that work perfectly
for the sun
when she shines
rain as it falls
and for birds, 


endlessly trilling
outside my window


And there are times
when i simply wish
to close my eyes
to sleep eternal


A most peaceful rest,
one of absolute divinity
where i need not think,
eat, nor breathe


An existence
where i am truly one
with all of creation


Where I am more than energy
more than the speed of light
stronger than the sun
wind
moon
and the stars


as they shine their weary smiles
upon me now.


Gently.


I wish to be the Great Frontier
its grasslands plenty
horses, wild, free
trees, untouched by man


My spirit,
the heartbeat
of wild buffalo


This place exists
in my heart
and I am
a sentient being


Human. 

Quietly,

dying.
