The face of fortune

(book)


Once you see these photos
think "I am Fortunato!"
are lucky because I have a bed,
are lucky because I eat,
are lucky because they are full
of all those superfluous things that life gives me ...

Have you ever stopped to watch the sky?

(book)
Terryb088 does it ever!
In the first picture I thought "that looks at the sky!"
in the second "that looks sky!"
Then I realized they were all so ...

Sometimes, stop watching the sky ...

Chromotherapy

(book)
(site)

It is not a good time ...
I need a little of chromo ...

Color therapy is possibly rooted in Ayurveda, an ancient form of medicine practiced in India for thousands of years. Other historic roots are attributed to Chinese and ancient Egyptian culture. In traditional Chinese medicine, each organ is associated with a color. Ancient Egyptians built solarium-type rooms, which could be fitted with colored panes of glass. The sun would shine through the glass and flood the patient with color. As late as the nineteenth century, European smallpox victims and their sickrooms were draped with red cloth to draw the disease away from the body.

A look inside a color therapy device.
Avicenna (980-1037), who viewed color to be of vital importance in diagnosis and treatment, made significant contributions to chromotherapy in The Canon of Medicine. He wrote that "Color is an observable symptom of disease" and also developed a chart that related colour to the temperature and physical condition of the body. His view was that red moved the blood, blue or white cooled it, and yellow reduced muscular pain and inflammation. He further discussed the properties of colors for healing and was "the first to establish that the wrong color suggested for therapy would elicit no response in specific diseases." As an example, "he observed that a person with a nosebleed should not gaze at things of a brilliant red color and should not be exposed to red light because this would stimulate the sanguineous humor, whereas blue would soothe it and reduce blood flow."

There are those who believe there ...
Certainly not hurts ...

Time to Reflection

It 's time for reflection ...
who we are, where we go, how much money I'm losing a wall-street, what is below what the above are on or are down ...
Certainly the photographs that you will change your point of view of things ...
Reflection baby!
