Many times the terminology? "Training without politics" was thrown at me. As if to say, "I work with people who do wrong but I don't want to know about it and as long as I am supposedly unconscious about it, I am innocent student".
I wonder, how many really train with without politics. And how many uses it as an excuse to escape their faulty behavior.
I also kind of wonder, is there a point in practice/training if it is does not shape your character with the outside world- like "politics"?
As the saying goes- "The air we share" denotes, perhaps it is time to truly realize or take in consideration that everything we consciously decide to do, ultimately affects everyone.
Means:Practice of persistent effort over a long period of time, without a break. The essential companion to this is Vairagya (non-attachment).

Immunity Enhancer.
Hello Everyone,
I am helping choose different herbal supplements (not approved by FDA but plenty of naturopaths and midwives have recommended these) for the clients that was coming into see my physician. He co-founded the disaster relief project named T-E-A-M.
(TEAM= Together Everyone Achieves More = ain't this cool?)
Good diet is a must and if you have wimpy immunity like me, all the more reason to take some. Most supplements I introduce here are plant/food based- so it does not strain the liver or other organs to process the nutrients.
From the left: Orac Energy Greens, Banaba Leaf (both from Paradise Herbs Inc.) and Graviola. Now this is liquid of Graviola is encapsulated in vegetarian capsules, very unique technology to do so but it one of these is like... 3 of powdered versions so I think it is good.
From their website it is describe:
Many of us don’t eat the recommended 9 servings of fruits and vegetables daily. That is why ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) Energy Greens is the perfect supplement to provide the antioxidant protection we all need. Just one super concentrated tablespoon (6 grams) contains over 12,000 ORAC, the equivalent of 24 servings of fruits and vegetables in antioxidant capacity.*
Paradise Herbs ORAC Energy Greens is the next generation in greens and provides a powerhouse of unparalleled antioxidants and superfoods. It contains over 42 certified organic and pesticide free ingredients including highly bioavailable juice powders, freeze-dried berries/veggies and ecologically wild crafted or naturally grown True Full Spectrum™ herbal concentrates. Our ecologically wild crafted herbs not only provide the highest quality beyond organic ingredients, but help promote fair trade while keeping the environment pure by providing indigenous people the opportunity to make a living without clearing natural landscapes or cutting down rainforests.
Banaba Leaf:
Banaba Leaf extract has actions in stimulating glucose transport into cells and can help maintain healthy blood sugar levels. For some people, fluctuations in blood sugar are related to appetite, hunger and various food cravings for carbohydrates such as breads and sweets. Banaba Leaf may be a healthy way to support a leaner and more slender body through appetite and sugar control.
My hayfever has gotten tolerable since taking them and smell reminds me of "Shiso" leaves indigenous to Japan.
Last but not least, Gravizon from Amazon Herbs.
Known as Soursop or Graviola, it is a fruit- pawpaw from Brazil.
Gravizon™ is an enhanced immune, circulatory and lymphatic formula containing the whole-leaf spagyric extract of the Graviola tree, a small evergreen tree from the Amazon. Rainforest natives have a rich history of using this herb for its profound healing properties – among them, immune, circulatory and lymphatic support. Research since the 1940s has validated and expanded understanding of this herb and its unique phyto-nutritional qualities. It is currently under intense study for its potential to possibly assist in blocking free radicals and abnormal cell growth.
After being quite run down (other than poor stress management) I was recommended by some friends this product. It has helped me and as some of you may know my schedule, now I don't tire as much.
Since I had good feedbacks for my "Radiation Fighting Foods" Blog, I decided to share this with you. Keep comments coming and I will gladly post new ones. (^0^)/

Closing of Ichigeki Shop.
Economy is hitting hard . Announcement was made that Matsui group's Ichigeki Shop in Harajuku is closing.
It is a bit disconcerting, even for me, to see Matsui san's "empire" stumble. Especially because I know how many have been scathed to make that.

DONATION ALERT.
There has been cases reported here that there were arrests of people scamming money off good-intended people, posing as the "Red Cross".
This is infuriating!
