A True Gem,
By Mariposa (Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Rainforest Home Remedies (Paperback)
This fantastic little book is chock full of wonderful information, natural recipes, lessons and anecdotes and makes for a very interesting read and excellent reference book. I wasn't able to put it down after my first read and still refer back to it often.Rosita explains the use of several important plants in a clear and informative way so that even a beginner to natural medicine can understand. For those of who us who have been practicing natural medicine for years, this book provides us with new insights and knowledge and helps to reaffirm what we truly know and believe. The breakdown and chapters of the book are excellent and make it easier to refer back to. I am so glad that the connection between the spiritual and emotional body with the physical body is explained as this describes the true holisitc way of healing which unfortunately Western medicine lacks. I can personally testify to the fantastic benefits of Mayan Abdominal Massage and wish all women would be taught this wonderful therapy and that Western Doctors would "prescribe" this in their attempts to heal many of the issues women suffer from today. This book is truly a gem and a wonderful addition to any healer's library!

Got woman problems?,
By "classycat" (boone nc) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Rainforest Home Remedies (Paperback)
This book has remedies for any ailment a woman could encounter. From wrinkles to cramps to irritable husbands. There's a great section on massage for children to fix anything from nail biting to colic. It also seems there is a tea recipie for anything you could ever suffer from.My personal testamony: I have suffered from chronic menstral cramps for the past 5 years and no doctor could find the cause of the problem. This book helped me realize that my uterus is tilted back due to years of dacing and running on concrete. By massaging my abdomen using the arvigo method taught in this book, for 2-3 minutes a day, I'm able to control the cramping without drugs. You don't know how amazing that feels! I'm not very experienced in natural healing, and I must admit it was a little overwhelming at first, but now I feel very confident in the subject. This would make the perfect gift to anyone with or preparing to have children.

rainforest remedies,
By "earthfarma" (downingtown, pa. United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Rainforest Home Remedies (Paperback)
I have had the pleasure of studing with Rosita, and visiting her in Belize. I had a chance to look this book over while waiting for it to be published. It is a wonderful book, filled with the wisdom of the Mayan traditions, healings, and spiritual practices, that Rosita knows so well having spent over 30 years working with the Mayan healers. This book is a treasure and should be followed by reading her first book, Sastun, my appreticeship with a Maya healer, which followers her journey to Belize and her delightful relationship with Don Elijio Panti, one of the last most respected healers of Belize.
