The health benefits of Maca root



Recently due to some changes occurring in my own body I decided to explore this popular super food to find out exactly what is Maca, where does it come from and what are the benefits of taking it. I found it incredibly beneficial in boosting my own health and would highly recommend adding it to your diet.
Maca is cultivated in the high altitude regions of South America and is sold worldwide as a vegetable as well as a supplement as there are many health care benefits associated with it.  There are numerous colours that Maca comes in but the most well-known are Black Maca, Yellow Maca and Red Maca, with each one having its own unique benefits to improve health.
So what are the differences between each of the Maca roots and which conditions are they the most beneficial for?
Black Maca has a taste similar to soya beans and is recommended for men as it helps with muscle building, boosting digestion, increasing stamina, boosting energy, strengthening the immune system, aiding restful sleep and enhancing fertility as it increases the sperm count!
 For women it offers the same benefits but in addition it also helps to enhance our curves which is always a positive option for a woman!
Yellow Maca has a tangy taste and can be consumed in vegetable form or as a powder which can be added to smoothies or salad dressing for easy consumption. It is helpful for its ability to enhance fertility also and actually is often referred to as a natural Viagra because of its instant effect on the body in creating a long lasting libido but also helps to improve feelings of depression and is highly beneficial for balancing hormonal levels in the body during the menopause.
Red Maca has a malty taste and overall is thought to be the most beneficial of all the Macas, it has the highest amount of amino acids and is helpful for Prostate health, boosting libido, enhancing fertility and decreasing Stress and Depression.

In addition to all these benefits individually, collectively Maca root is helpful for overcoming erectile dysfunction ,increasing hair growth, mental focus and clarity, improving skin tone and preventing Osteoporosis. Indeed it seems there are so many benefits to be gained from adding Maca root to your diet that it seems a shame not too.

How to offer touch to someone who is hypersensitive to receiving it

Image
  Receiving touch is something many of us welcome and benefit from but not everyone is so accepting so what happens when someone is hyper sensitive to receiving and accepting touch? Touch is something that is a basic human need for us all, but what if you are hypersensitive to touch or are affected by ‘tactile defensiveness’ as it can be known and what may have caused this to occur? Individuals who experience hypersensitivity often say that things that touch their skin bother them more than others. This could include textures of clothes, food, stationary or of course touch and there are a variety of reasons as to why they may be hyper sensitive including hereditary, physical trauma, chemotherapy, drugs, substance abuse, infectious diseases, autism, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, post-traumatic stress disorder and sensory processing disorders. Whatever the reason may be, it is essential to stay mindful and always compassionate and use a gentle, yet attentive therapeutic touch a

An exploration into cuddle therapy and exploring the taboos surrounding cuddling as a therapy?

  An exploration into cuddle therapy and exploring the taboos surrounding cuddling as a therapy? The benefits of receiving touch through massage therapy from a professional massage therapist is widely known and has been recognised and respected for some time. However, Touch or ‘Cuddle Therapy’ is a relatively new concept in the UK and is still in the process of being recognised and understood, although it is already becoming very popular and well established in many other countries including the USA, for all the positive benefits it can provide. This may be partly due to cultural differences and our interpretation of what ‘holding space’ for someone really means and how essential it is considered to be, which will of course vary hugely not only depending on our social conditioning and what is considered the ‘norm’, but on our own thought processes and feelings. In the USA for example the need to feel basic human touch in a platonic and non-sexual way is acknowledged and accepted, he

Misconceptions surrounding cuddle therapy

Image
  There can be many misconceptions surrounding the work of Cuddle therapists here are some of the most common: Misconception no.1 Cuddle Therapists are under cover sex workers / cuddling always leads to sexual activity A cuddle session is conducted with a professionally experienced and trained Cuddle Therapist who will ensure the appropriate ethics and boundaries are clearly discussed prior to the session and adhered to throughout, so that both client and therapist always feel safe and comfortable. These include no form of sexual touch is permitted at any time before during and after the session including kissing. Misconception no.2 Only the most desperate people would hire a Professional Cuddler This is simply not true. There will be times in everyone’s life when you just need that extra care and attention, it is not a sign of weakness, but of strength. It symbolises a degree of self-awareness and recognising a need for human contact. A session with a professional cuddler is always c
