Guest guest Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 Dear Marco This is not yogic but you can ice the shoulder every couple of hours for 5 to 10minutes. There is also a gentle exercise you can do to help relieve some of the pain. Brace other arm on something and lean forward and gently, in a very relaxed way, rotate the arm in circles from small to larger. Good luck.

This is the recipe used by practitioners of yoga who have creaking joints, lots of cracking, and pain in the knees and back from sitting in a cross-legged position. It is also really great for those who simply have a need for a deep, healing sleep. Your sleep may be so rejuvenating that your voice may be deeper and more resonant in the morning. The turmeric is good for many ailments including liver trouble. It is prepared in two parts: (1) Prepare a golden yellow turmeric paste by taking a 1/4 cup of turmeric powder to 1/2 cup of pure water and simmer for 8 minutes. It will form a thick paste. There is an important reaction that takes place at 8 minutes. This paste will be used for the next 40 days, so store it in a jar in the refrigerator. (2) After the paste is made, once daily for 40 days, for each cup of Golden Milk you want, blend together 1 cup of raw milk (almond milk is a good substitute) 1 teaspoon of almond oil (best), sesame or any vegetable oil, 1/4 teaspoon, or more, of the turmeric paste as prepared above and then add honey to taste at the very end. While stirring on a low heat, bring the milk just to the boiling point. Remove from heat and add honey. Optional: The mixture may be then blended in an electric blender to make a beautiful foamy drink. I recommend serving with a little cinnamon and/or a few dashes of nutmeg. Pretend you're at Starbucks. Variation: from the Earth Clinic Website: Gurudev Kaur Khalsa, a Sat Nam Rasayan healer and Kundalini Yoga teacher in Los Angeles sent us this Ayurvedic tea for lubricating the joints. Gurudev tells us that the almond oil is a very important part of this recipe. Turmeric is called "the internal healer" in Ayurveda. Turmeric is also a blood purifier and is best known for its ability to help the female reproductive organs. Some research indicates that turmeric may be of value in preventing diabetes and cancer. 1/8 teaspoon turmeric, 3 cardamom pods (optional), 1/4 cup water. Simmer 5 to 7minutes, then add : 1 cup of milk, 2 tablespoons almond oil (cold pressed). Bring just to the boiling point (but do not boil). Add honey or maple syrup to taste. Sip slowly as a hot tea.
