Should Know There was a time when
0:06
healing didn't always come from a bottle
0:08
or a lab Before modern medicine people
0:10
relied on ancient techniques passed down
0:12
through generations rituals movements
0:14
and practices that supported the body's
0:16
natural ability to heal itself Some were
0:19
forgotten as science advanced Others
0:21
were dismissed as folklore But here's
0:24
the truth Many of these oldw world
0:26
methods are now being rediscovered
0:29
Not just by herbalists or spiritual
0:31
healers but by scientists doctors and

that might just change how you think
0:45
about healing Because these aren't
0:47
outdated traditions They're forgotten
0:49
healing techniques backed by science
0:52
From breath work that resets your
0:54
nervous system to cold therapy that
0:56
boosts immunity Today we're uncovering
0:59

1:01

whether you're dealing with stress
1:07
chronic pain or just looking for a
1:09
deeper connection to your body this
1:11
one's for you Let's begin One earthing
1:16
or grounding Reconnecting with the
1:18
earth's energy Imagine stepping outside
1:21
feeling the cool ground beneath your
1:22
bare feet the sun on your skin and the
1:25
wind brushing past you No shoes no
1:28
distractions just pure connection This
1:31
is grounding also known as earthing and
1:33
it's one of the simplest ways to support
1:35
your body's natural healing process
1:38
When you walk barefoot on natural
1:39
surfaces like grass sand or soil your
1:42
body absorbs negatively charged
1:44
electrons from the earth These electrons
1:47
act like antioxidants reducing
1:49
inflammation and neutralizing free
1:51
radicals that cause pain and disease
1:54
Many people who start grounding report
1:55
better sleep reduced joint pain and
1:58
improved mood within days Beyond the
2:01
science there's also a deep emotional
2:03
benefit Being barefoot reminds us of
2:05
childhood freedom and simplicity In a
2:08
world full of concrete and screens
2:10
reconnecting with nature through your
2:12
feet might be the quiet reset your body
2:14
has been craving
2:16
Number two cupping therapy Ancient
2:18
suction for modern pain relief You may
2:21
have seen athletes with round bruises on
2:23
their backs and wondered "What is that?"
2:25
That's cupping therapy an ancient
2:27
Chinese practice that uses suction to
2:29
increase blood flow release muscle
2:31
tension and promote healing By placing
2:34
heated glass or silicone cups on the
2:36
skin practitioners create a vacuum that
2:39
draws blood to the surface encouraging
2:41
circulation and helping flush out toxins
2:44
While it can leave temporary marks those
2:46
aren't bruises There signs of fresh
2:48
oxygenated blood reaching tight overused
2:51
muscles Studies have shown cupping helps
2:54
relieve chronic neck and back pain
2:56
reduce inflammation and even ease

3:01
popular among people with fibromyalgia

and arthritis who find relief where
3:05
medication falls short If you've ever
3:07
felt like your body is holding on to
3:09
pain it can't release Cupping might be
3:12
the missing piece in your healing
3:13
journey Number three breath work for
3:16
emotional release and physical healing
3:19
Breathing is something we do without
3:21
thinking but when done consciously it
3:24
becomes one of the most powerful healing
3:25
tools we have
3:28
Diaphragmatic breathing also known as
3:30
belly breathing activates the
3:32
parasympathetic nervous system your
3:34
body's natural rest and digest mode In
3:37
contrast to shallow chest breathing
3:39
which keeps us in a constant state of
3:41
low-level stress deep belly breathing
3:43
slows the heart rate lowers blood
3:46
pressure and calms the mind It's often
3:48
used in trauma recovery anxiety
3:51
treatment and even postsurgery
3:53
rehabilitation to support emotional and
3:55
physical healing You don't need any
3:57
equipment or special training Just a few
4:00
minutes a day focusing on slow deep
4:02
breaths can make a dramatic difference
4:03
in how your body feels and functions
4:06
Whether you're dealing with chronic pain
4:08
insomnia or just everyday stress try
4:11
this Lie down place one hand on your
4:14
belly and breathe so it rises and falls
4:17
Let your body remember how to heal
4:19
simply by learning how to breathe again
4:22
Four cold water immersion Boosting
4:25
immunity and reducing inflammation
4:28
Cold water immersion sometimes called
4:30
ice baths has been used for centuries by
4:32
cultures around the world from Nordic
4:34
winter dips to Japanese cold waterfall
4:36
rituals And now science is catching up
4:39
to what they've known all along Regular
4:41
exposure to cold can dramatically
4:43
improve circulation reduce inflammation
4:45
and boost immune function Cold therapy
4:49
causes blood vessels to constrict which
4:51
helps reduce swelling and flush out
4:53
metabolic waste after intense workouts
4:55
or injuries It also increases brown fat
4:58
the good kind of fat that burns energy
5:00
to keep you warm improving metabolism
5:02
and resilience over time Many people who
5:06
take up cold exposure report higher
5:08
energy levels better moods and fewer
5:10
colds throughout the year If you're not
5:12
ready for full body immersion start with
5:14
cold showers Just 30 seconds at the end
5:17
can wake up your body and mind in ways
5:19
you won't believe Sometimes the coldest
5:22
moments bring the deepest healing
5:25
Five Acupuncture the art of needle
5:28
healing Acupuncture has been practiced
5:30
in China for thousands of years and now
5:33
modern science is finally recognizing
5:35
its incredible power to heal pain reduce
5:38
stress and even regulate hormones Based
5:41
on the idea of energy pathways called
5:43
meridians acupuncture uses fine needles
5:45
to stimulate specific points on the body
5:48
encouraging blood flow and balancing the
5:50
nervous system Studies have shown it's
5:52
effective for migraines chronic back
5:54
pain menstrual issues and even PTSD
5:58
What makes acupuncture unique is how
6:00
deeply personalized it is Each session
6:03
is tailored to the individual's needs
6:05
making it far more than just a general
6:07
wellness trend Many people feel
6:09
immediate relief after a single session
6:12
while others use it regularly to
6:13
maintain balance If you've been
6:16
struggling with unexplained pain or
6:17
fatigue and nothing seems to help give
6:20
acupuncture a chance Your body might
6:22
just respond in ways you never expected
6:25
Six forest bathing shinyoku healing
6:28
through nature immersion Forest bathing
6:31
or shinyoku as it's called in Japan
6:34
isn't about getting wet It's about
6:36
slowing down and immersing yourself in
6:38
the forest atmosphere Rooted in
6:41
mindfulness and sensory awareness this
6:43
practice encourages deep relaxation by
6:45
allowing your body to sync with the
6:47
rhythms of nature Studies show that
6:50
spending time in forests lowers cortisol
6:52
levels reduces blood pressure and boosts
6:55
immune function thanks in part to
6:57
phyonides natural oils released by trees
7:00
that enhance white blood cell activity
7:03
Unlike hiking or exercise forest bathing
7:05
asks nothing of you except presence Walk
7:08
slowly Breathe deeply Listen to the
7:11
leaves rustling and let your thoughts
7:13
drift away If you've been feeling
7:14
overwhelmed anxious or disconnected from
7:16
life step into the woods Let nature
7:19
remind you how to heal Seven Singing
7:22
bowls and sound healing Vibrational
7:24
medicine for the body and mind For
7:26
centuries monks and healers have used
7:28
singing bowls to restore balance and
7:30
harmony in the body These metal bowls
7:33
produce deep resonant tones when struck
7:36
or rubbed with a mallet and the
7:38
vibrations they create have a calming
7:40
effect on the nervous system Sound
7:42
healing works on the principle that
7:44
everything in the universe vibrates
7:46
including our bodies When exposed to
7:49
certain frequencies brain waves slow
7:51
down promoting deep relaxation mental
7:54
clarity and even emotional release Many
7:57
people report feeling lighter more
7:58
centered or even tearful during sessions
8:01
as if trapped emotions are finally being
8:03
freed Whether used for meditation stress
8:06
relief or pain management singing bowls
8:08
offer a gentle non-invasive way to
8:10
support healing So if your mind feels
8:12
cluttered or your body tense give sound
8:15
healing a try Sometimes the answer lies
8:17
not in words but in vibration Eight
8:20
herbal steam baths Detoxifying with
8:23
plant power Long before saunas and
8:26
infrared machines people turned to
8:28
herbal steam baths for detoxification
8:30
and healing used in used in across
8:32
Africa Asia Asia and the Middle East
8:35
This practice involves inhaling steam
8:37
infused with medicinal plants like
8:39
eucalyptus mint or ginger The heat opens
8:43
pores promotes sweating and allows
8:45
active compounds in the herbs to enter
8:47
the bloodstream offering both physical
8:49
and emotional relief Steam therapy is
8:52
especially beneficial for respiratory
8:54
issues sinus congestion and skin
8:56
conditions It also supports hormonal
8:58
balance Many women use it for menstrual
9:00
discomfort and postpartum recovery If
9:03
you've ever felt stuck in your body
9:05
physically or emotionally a simple
9:07
herbal steam could be the cleanse you
9:09
need because healing doesn't always come
9:12
from a pill Sometimes it comes from a
9:14
cloud of warmth and scent Nine Chanting
9:18
and mantra meditation Healing through
9:20
the voice chanting may seem like a
9:22
spiritual ritual but science shows that
9:24
vocal vibration can have profound
9:26
effects on the body When you chant
9:29
especially repetitive sounds like om you
9:32
stimulate the vagus nerve which controls
9:34
heart rate digestion and emotional
9:37
regulation This triggers a relaxation
9:39
response lowering stress hormones and
9:41
boosting mood Chanting also improves
9:44
focus enhances lung capacity and builds
9:46
a sense of inner peace In Ayurvedic and
9:49
Buddhist traditions mantras are believed
9:51
to carry specific energetic frequencies
9:53
that align with different parts of the
9:55
body helping clear blockages and restore
9:57
flow Whether you chant alone or in a
10:00
group the experience can be deeply
10:02
transformative So if you've been
10:04
carrying tension in your chest throat or
10:06
mind try this Sit quietly close your
10:09
eyes and hum a soft Let your voice
10:12
become your medicine 10 Mud therapy
10:16
Earth's natural detoxifier Mud therapy
10:18
also known as pelotherapy has been used
10:21
for centuries in places like Eastern
10:22
Europe the Dead Sea and Native American
10:25
traditions Rich in minerals like
10:27
magnesium silica and sulfur natural mud
10:30
draws out toxins soothes inflammation
10:32
and nourishes the skin When applied
10:34
topically it helps unclog pores
10:36
exfoliate dead skin cells and calm
10:38
irritation
10:40
Internally some cultures use edible
10:42
clays to bind heavy metals and aid
10:44
digestion though that should always be
10:46
done under professional guidance Spas
10:49
around the world have embraced mud
10:50
treatments for arthritis eczema and
10:52
muscle pain and studies confirm their
10:55
effectiveness So if your skin feels dull
10:57
your joints ache or your body feels
10:59
overloaded go back to the earth Let mud
11:02
do what it's been doing for millennia
11:04
Cleanse soothe and renew 11 Sungazing
11:09
Harnessing light for mental clarity
11:11
Sungazing The practice of staring at the
11:14
sun during sunrise or sunset has long
11:16
been considered sacred in cultures like
11:19
India and Egypt While direct midday sun
11:22
is dangerous early morning light offers
11:24
a safe window to absorb natural photons
11:26
that affect circadian rhythms mood and
11:29
hormone production Exposure to morning
11:32
sunlight boosts serotonin and melatonin
11:34
production improving sleep quality and
11:36
emotional stability Some practitioners
11:39
claim it also sharpens vision and
11:41
enhances intuition though these claims
11:43
are still debated Regardless spending
11:46
time in natural daylight is essential
11:48
for health And sungazing is a mindful
11:51
way to start the day Just remember only
11:54
gaze during the first 30 to 45 minutes
11:56
after sunrise or before sunset And never
11:59
look directly at the sun when it's high
12:01
in the sky Let the light awaken your
12:03
spirit gently safely and with gratitude
12:07
12 Walking meditation
12:10
Moving mindfulness for body and soul
12:12
Walking is one of the most natural forms
12:14
of movement we have And when done
12:16
mindfully it becomes much more than just
12:18
exercise Walking meditation is an
12:21
ancient practice rooted in mindfulness
12:23
and presence where every step is taken
12:25
with awareness gratitude and intention
12:28
Unlike fast-paced cardio this form of
12:31
walking asks you to slow down feel the
12:33
ground beneath your feet and notice the
12:35
rhythm of your breath and body It's
12:38
particularly helpful for people dealing
12:39
with anxiety grief or burnout offering a
12:42
gentle way to reconnect with yourself
12:45
and the world around you Studies show
12:48
that mindful walking reduces cortisol
12:50
levels improves mood and enhances
12:52
creativity And unlike many other forms
12:54
of healing exercise it requires no
12:56
special gear no gym membership just a
12:59
quiet space and a willingness to move
13:01
with purpose So next time you feel
13:04
overwhelmed instead of reaching for
13:05
distractions take a walk Let your feet
13:09
guide you back to peace one step at a
13:11
time 13 Hydrotherapy Healing with
13:15
water's gentle power Hydrotherapy the
13:18
use of water for therapeutic purposes
13:20
has been practiced since ancient Roman
13:22
times From hot springs to alternating
13:24
hot and cold showers hydrotherapy
13:26
stimulates circulation relieves muscle
13:28
tension and encourages lymphatic
13:30
drainage One of the most accessible
13:32
forms is contrast hydrotherapy
13:34
alternating between warm and cold water
13:36
to stimulate blood flow This method is
13:39
especially effective for chronic pain
13:41
inflammation and recovery from injury
13:43
Even a simple warm bath with Epsom salts
13:46
can relax tight muscles and replenish
13:48
magnesium levels essential for nerve and
13:50
muscle function
13:52
If you've been battling fatigue soreness
13:55
or stress let water become your
13:57
sanctuary Because sometimes the greatest
14:00
healing happens not in silence but in
14:02
the soothing embrace of warmth and
14:04
motion 14 Fasting and intermittent
14:07
fasting cellular renewal through rest
14:12
Fasting is one of the oldest healing
14:13
practices known to humanity Used for
14:15
spiritual cultural and medical reasons
14:17
across civilizations Today science
14:20
confirms what ancient traditions
14:21
understood Giving your digestive system
14:23
a break allows your body to redirect
14:26
energy toward repair and renewal During
14:29
fasting periods cells activate autophagy
14:32
a process where damaged components are
14:34
removed and recycled essentially
14:36
cleaning house at the cellular level
14:38
This supports longevity brain health and
14:41
immune function Intermittent fasting
14:43
such as the 168 method offers many
14:46
benefits without prolonged deprivation
14:48
Many people report clearer skin sharper
14:51
focus and better digestion once they
14:53
adjust If you've been feeling sluggish
14:55
or bloated consider giving your body a
14:57
rest because sometimes healing begins
15:00
not with food but with space 15 Laughter
15:04
therapy Joy as medicine Laughter truly
15:07
is the best medicine and science agrees
15:10
When we laugh our body releases
15:11
endorphins dopamine and serotonin
15:14
chemicals that reduce pain lower stress
15:16
and elevate mood It also decreases
15:18
cortisol and adrenaline helping shift
15:20
the body from fight or flight into rest
15:22
and digest mode Laughter therapy often
15:25
practiced in groups uses playful
15:28
exercises and intentional laughter to
15:30
trigger these physiological benefits
15:32
Even if the laughter starts fake the
15:35
body responds as if it's real Studies
15:38
show that regular laughter improves
15:39
cardiovascular health strengthens
15:41
immunity and even boosts memory
15:43
retention So if life feels heavy don't
15:46
underestimate the power of humor Watch a
15:49
funny movie share jokes with friends or
15:51
join a laughter yoga class because
15:53
sometimes the strongest healing begins
15:55
