Be Healthy And Youthful: Put An Ice Cube At This Point On Your Head



Can you imagine that a single ice cube can make you look younger and boost your energy? In addition to this, you can use ice cubes to balance certain disorders.
However, ice cubes do not have the same power in every part of the body. For optimal results, you have to locate the ideal pressure point. Look for the spot that is located right where your head and neck meet. In Chinese acupuncture, this point is known as Feng Fu.
Method
Follow these simple instructions and enjoy the benefits of this treatment:
Lie flat on your belly and place an ice cube directly on the Feng Fu spot, or the hole at the back of your head. Sitting is also fine. Hold the ice cube on the spot for 20 minutes. You can secure it using a bandage, scarf or anything else you find useful.
Repeat the same treatment in the morning before you eat or drink anything and in the evening before you go to bed. Do not worry, you will not get stuck with a cold. Remember, you should do a 2-day break between the treatments.
“Amazing” would perfectly describe this treatment. At the beginning you may feel cold, but within 30-40 seconds you should feel how the heat goes straight to the Feng Fu point. Be careful about the euphoria you shall experience in the first few days, thanks to the release of endorphins into your bloodstream.
Benefits:
– Better sleep
– Good mood and vitality
– Proper digestion
– Bye-bye colds (use the same treatment to decrease high body temperature)
– Relief in cases of headache, toothache, joint pain
Always apply the treatment when dealing with these conditions:
  • Respiratory diseases
  • Cardiovascular diseases
  • Neurological diseases and degenerative changes in spine
  • Acute, gastrointestinal and sexually transmitted infections
  • Improper function of the thyroid gland
  • Arthritis, hypertension and hypotension
  • Bronchial asthma
  • Problems with gastrointestinal tract, obesity and malnutrition
  • Cellulite (especially at an early stage)
  • Irregular menstrual cycle and endocrine infertility
  • Psycho-emotional disorders, stress, chronic fatigue, depression, insomnia
However, you should understand that this treatment does not heal any condition. By treating the Feng Fu point you keep the physiological balance, rejuvenate your body and strengthen your organism.
Do not apply the treatment if you are pregnant, have a pacemaker, epilepsy or schizophrenia.
In Chinese medicine, the body is considered as an energy system, and acupuncture and massages affect the energy flow and the function of your organs.

Federal Philippines



Due to BBL, the issue of fedaralizing Philippines has been revived. In Federalization of the Philippines, the Philippines will be divided into 11 states/regions. Each state will have its' own capital, government, resources, taxes, and even can establish their own government agencies. Manila will be decentralized. NCR will become Federal Administrative Region, similar to Washington D.C. in United States.
However, the federal government (the main government of the PH) will still have some power in all states, and all of the Philippines will still be under one military and police.
By federalization, each government of 11 states will give resources and needs to its' citizens much more easier, and each government will handle the state better. Meaning the income and tax of each state will go to its' government and the government will have the authority to somehow use it for people's needs, unlike today, all taxes of each provinces will still go to the National government (so it can lessen corruption). And Manila will be decentralized, meaning each capital will have its'own business and financial district. But it will take a long process, including the revision and amending of the 1987 Constitution.
Are you in favor of Federalizing the Philippines?
