Guest guest Posted September 8, 2000 Report Share Posted September 8, 2000 Sat Nam Alisha! The book Owners' Manual for the Human Body has a set titled "To Make the Skin Radiant", as well as a group of kriyas that work specifically on glandular (endocrine) balance. Gururattan's Transitions to a Heart-Centered World has a section titled "Strengthening the Immune System" - many of those sets work on the glandular system or aspects of it (there is significant overlap between the endocrine system and the immune system - for example, hormones important to the immune system are produced by the thymus, hypothalamus and pituitary glands). BTW, one of the reasons that you are encouraged to focus at the brow point is that this action stimulates the pituitary gland and massages the connection between hypothalamus and pituitary, encouraging and mediating the general glandular stimulation providing by all the activities of Kundalini yoga. THere are also dietary things that are helpful for the skin, as in lecithin, turmeric, wheat, almond oil, rosehips, chamomile tea, green grapes, and papaya (from YB's Foods for Health and Healing). He also suggests some external treatments, including mustard oil, olive oil, and something called chidee, for which he includes the recipe. I highly recommend this book. With love and blessings, Sadhant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
