A Natural Hygienist is one who desires to live with respect to the laws of Nature. We eat the foods that we are designed for: fresh ripe fruits from the trees & bushes & tender young leafy (easily digested) vegetables from Mother Earth & a small amount of nuts & seeds.
One food at a meal is best, or we food-combine up to four foods.
We abstain from animal & dairy products (being vegan & kind to animals in all ways). We avoid all bitter vegetables, stimulants & irritants, including caffeine, salt, sea salt, pepper, vinegar, oils, refined sugar, honey, herbs, spices, garlic, onions, radishes & all condiments.
Natural Hygiene concerns itself with the Laws of Nature & our whole person, including our physiological & biological needs, to regain, maintain & achieve new levels of excellence of health, to whatever degree is possible for each individual.
Our lifestyle is according to all the true needs of life including: fresh air, pure water, rest, adequate sleep, sunshine, activity & exercise, wholesome raw organically-grown natural foods, play & recreation, comfort, internal & external cleanliness, mental & emotional poise, self-mastery, security of life & its means, creative useful work, belonging to a group or a social circle, kind human touch, expressing love for others, satisfaction of our aesthetic senses, developing a positive attitude & fulfilling of our life's purpose.
One is in tune with one's instincts to balance each person's needs of mind, body & spirit.
Adapting to a natural lifestyle will allow the body’s own wonderful natural self-healing process to work as it should, according to each person's health. When we wish to remove toxins from our systems, we may employ supervised water-only fasting, in a supportive environment with total rest, providing certain criteria are met, including a doctor's advice about any medications, before beginning the fast.
One's purpose is to live in a positive social & physical state & a loving environment.
