| Amethyst Jewellery Origins | | 2008-05-21 08:09:51 | | According to mythology the Amethyst inspires a love of fairness, a sense of duty and a devotion to high ideals. It was therefore chosen to be used in some of the principal ecclesiastical rings and even today is worn by Bishops. The Amethyst was also a stone of English royalty.

| Garnet Jewellery Origins | | 2008-05-21 07:49:26 | | The word Garnet comes from the Latin and refers to a resemblance to the seeds of the pomegranate. The finest stones have an unblemished transparency and glow like a smouldering fire. This could give credence to the legend that Noah lit the Ark with a Garnet. The ancient Egyptians saw it as a symbol of life and in the middle ages the Garnet was thought to be a remedy for feverish illness. In India & Persia the Garnet was considered to have preventative powers and was worn as an amulat to protect the wearer from poison, plague and lightening.Garnet jewellery By the middle of the 3rd century BC the Greeks favoured massive Gold rings set with Garnets wider than the finger.

In Victorian times cabuchon Garnet rings were popular. The surface of the dome was often decorated with a star of tiny seed pearls.Garnets, these t... | | By: Diamond Rings and Costume Jewellery | | |

| Diamond Jewellery Origins | | 2008-05-21 07:37:48 | | The word "diamond" is derived from the Greek "adamas", meaning indomitable. In the Middle Ages the diamond was thought to be a protection against the plague, Queen Elizabeth I wore one in her bosom to protect against infection. Napoleon, another believer in its mystic powers, had the famous Regent diamond in in the hilt of the sword he carried at his coronation. The diamond has the legendary power of protecting the wearer form evil, especially when worn on the left side. This belief may well have added to the choice of a diamond for an engagement ring. Continuing the marital theme there is a superstition that a gift of a diamond "quickens the affection and restores love between husband and wife".From statements in an old Indian manuscript of the first century B.C. it is thought that the diamond was known in India during the Buddhist period of about 400 B.C. The earliest recorded diamond engagement ring was given to Mary of Burgundy in 1477 by her fiance, Maximillian of Hapsburg. It was... | | By: Diamond Rings and Costume Jewellery | | |

| origins nourishing face lotion | | 2008-01-22 18:44:00 | | I recently had the opportunity to try a sample of Origins' Nourishing Face Lotion, and I was very excited about the organic part because of my previous post about cosmetics being toxic.My first reaction to the lotion was not excellent: while I loved the consistency and the way it went on smoothly on my face, the smell was a bit overpowering for my taste. I looked up the ingredients, and I think it's either the clove or the patchouli that bother me.But if it means anything, I've kept using the lotion anyway, because I really like it. I loved the non-greasy yet so moisturizing effect I get from it. I'm actually at the end of the sample, and I'm thinking about visiting the Origins' counter soon..... | | By: NY SPENDER | | |

| Thai Massage - Origins, Techniques and Benefits | | 2007-12-24 23:50:11 | | By : Michael Russell Thai massage has been practiced for several thousand years. It is one branch of Thai medicine, which includes manipulation (of which massage is a part), diet, medicinal treatment and ritual (spiritual ceremony). In Thailand it is used in conjunction with these other forms of treatment, although in other countries it may be used on its own. Thai massage is based on the belief that all disease is due to an imbalance of the body's energy. Its goal is to promote this balance and therefore assist in the healing of the entire person. To do this, it uses several techniques. The first is the application of pressure through leaning into the area being treated. This pressure is less forceful than that used in some other forms of massage and more like the pressure used in shiatsu. Also like shiatsu, Thai massage uses pressure along energy channels. (called "sen" in Thailand, but more commonly known as meridians - which is what they are called in Chinese medicine). The major difference between the two is that Thai massage treats these channels in both directions, while shiatsu moves in only one direction. Reflexology is also part of a Thai massage session. Reflexology is based on the belief that points on the feet can be use to treat the entire body. There is a lot of attention paid to the feet and legs in Thai massage, because getting energy moving in these areas helps to better connect the client to the earth, causing them to be more "grounded". Another technique used is blood stopping. This is achieved by putting pressure on a major artery in the arm or leg for an extended period of time - up to about a minute. The theory behind this technique is that cutting off a major source of circulation to an area will initially result in increased pressure, which will cause the heart muscle to slow its contractions in order to bring the pressure down. When the pressure on the artery is released a fresh supply of blood rushes into the area, causing it to rela... | | By: Thai Massage | | |

| Second Nature: Economic Origins of Human Evolution | | 2007-08-16 21:38:00 | | Author: Haim Ofek Paperback: 262 pagesPublisher: Cambridge University Press (November 2001)Language: EnglishISBN: 0521625343(R)This book spans two million years of human evolution and explores the impact of economics on human evolution and natural history. The theory of evolution by natural selection has always relied in part on progress in areas of science outside of biology. By applying economic principles at the borderlines of biology, Haim Ofek shows how some of the outstanding issues in human evolution, such as the increase in human brain size and the expansion of the environmental niche humans occupied, can be answered. He identifies distinct economic forces at work, beginning with the transition from the feed-as-you-go strategy of primates, through hunter-gathering and the domestication of fire to the development of agriculture. This highly readable book will inform and intrigue general readers and those in fields such as evolutionary biology and psycholog... | | By: GanEden For Books | | |
