Our cells are braided into an extracellular space called the matrix. This matrix has a semifluid consistency. And this semi-fluid consistency is only kept at the right consistency if your blood pH is in balance between 6.8 to 7.2. Th...

To learn about the first 8 tissue salts and why tissue salts are an incredible support to our bodies, head back to episode number 8 where we began this fascinating series. Nat Phos is one of three Sodium (Natrium) tissue salts and last week we spoke about Nat Mur which is like our watergate (episode #15). Nat Phos is known as the ‘pH Balancer.’ When we look at our blood there are many many components we look at in order to gauge how ‘healthy’ it is. One o...
2021-03-1013 minEssentially QuinnySodium Chloride: Nat Mur Tissue salt # 8Today we are talking about Sodium Chloride (Nat Mur), which is tissue salt # 8. To learn about the first 7 tissue salts and why tissue salts are an incredible support to our bodies, head back to episode number 8 where we began this fascinating series. I particularly enjoy talking about the Naturium (latin for ‘sodium’) series of tissue salts because most people are not aware that we have three forms of sodium. Sodium regulates the fluid in the body. We are around 80% fluid and this fluid needs to be in perfect balance in both the intracellular and ex...

To learn about the first 6 tissue salts and why tissue salts are an incredible support to our bodies, head back to episode number 8 where we began this fascinating series. Every time we talk about magnesium, we tend to focus on it’s relaxation properties. This property is beneficial, especially when it comes to our muscles and the ability to sleep but let’s go a little more in-depth than this today because magnesium is a vital mineral that is required in almost every...
2021-02-2211 minEssentially QuinnyPotassium Sulphate (Kali Sulph) Tissue Salt #6Today we are talking about Potassium Sulphate (Kali Sulph), which is tissue salt # 6. To learn about the first 5 tissue salts and why tissue salts are an incredible support to our bodies, head back to episode number 8 where we began this fascinating series. Potassium Sulphate is responsible for the third stage of inflammation. If the body has lost its capacity to bounce back from stages 1 or 2 of inflammation it progresses into the 3rd stage. For example in the case of a cough, the cough quickly becomes purulent (i.e. yellow and thick with a putrid smell), expectoration (coughing i...
2021-02-1608 minEssentially QuinnyPotassium Phosphate: Tissue Salt #5Today we are talking about Potassium Phosphate (Kali Phos), which is tissue salt # 5. To learn about the first 3 tissue salts and why tissue salts are an incredible support to our bodies, head back to episode number 8 where we began this fascinating series. Potassium Phosphate is responsible for everything to do with the Central Nervous System. When we are talking about the Central Nervous System, we are referring to the brain and spinal cord, including, thinking, focus, concentration, memory, cognition and nerve function. Some ways Potassium Phosphate works in our bodies: Brain fu...
2021-02-0908 minEssentially QuinnyPotassium Chloride: Tissue Salt #4This week we are talking about tissue salt #4, Kali Mur, also known as Potassium Chloride. If you haven’t listened to our other episodes in this series then we highly recommend going back to the episode called ‘Mineral Therapy’ and beginning there. Potassium Chloride is responsible for the second stage of inflammation. This stage occurs if the body cannot calm down the original presentation of inflammation. As we discussed last week this shows up in our bodies as redness, swelling and heat. In the second stage of inflammation the body also begins to produce mucous. For ex...
2021-02-0305 minEssentially QuinnyFerrum Phos: Scheusslers Tissue Salt #3Today we are continuing to develop the topic of Mineral Therapy and we are talking about Scheussler’s Tissue Salt #3 - Iron Phosphate. Before we delve into Iron Phosphate (Ferrum Phos) however, it is good to have an understanding of the first stage of inflammation. If something in the body is inflamed it is generally red, hot and swollen. Sensations like burning, pain and throbbing are also common. These sensations and observations are usually the first stage of inflammation. We most often think of inflammation on the external surfaces of the body but your...
2021-01-2707 minEssentially QuinnyCalcium Phosphate tissue salt #2Today we are covering Scheussler's tissue salt #2, which is calcium phosphate. We talk about why calcium phosphate is vital to your body's structure and functioning as well as how to tell if you are deficient. What is Calcium Phosphate? Calcium Phosphate is one of 3 forms of calcium and is the most abundant found in the body. Calcium phosphate gives your teeth and bones structure and also helps in forming tissues. Without Calcium Phosphate your body would lack structure and you would be ‘jelly-like.’ You have most likely heard of the c...
2021-01-2113 minEssentially QuinnyCalcium Fluoratum: Tissue Salt #1Today we are talking about Calcium Fluoratum, which is tissue salt #1. Calcium fluoratum is one that many people are not aware that it even exists within the body, unlike it’s famous cousin, Calcium Phosphate. If you haven’t listened to episode 7 yet, we highly recommend listening to it first to gain an understanding of what mineral therapy is and how it works, before listening to today’s episode. Calcium Fluoratum is responsible for the elasticity of the tissues within our bodies. This is important for many functions, including ligaments, tendons and our skin. When C...
2021-01-1209 minEssentially QuinnyScheussler's Tissue Salts Mineral TherapyMineral therapy is looking at the equilibrium of minerals in the body to obtain bioregulation. We look at what is missing in the body so we can supplement it and bring the body back into balance. In many ways, minerals can be seen as the missing link when healing from chronic conditions. What does mineral therapy mean? Let’s start with what Mineral Therapy is not. It is not going to the chemist to get a multi-mineral in a capsule. It is more complex than this and is based on the twelve basic salt...

Now that Summer is here in the southern hemisphere, it is getting a lot warmer and temperatures like 40℃ are not unusual. With warm weather, we head outside for festivities and fun and thus this is the time of year we start seeing dehydration as a common problem. There is a misconception that drinking fluids is equal to drinking water. In the clinic, we can see in blood analysis whether someone is dehydrated or not because we c...
2020-12-0814 minEssentially QuinnyHow to detox your bodyFirstly, let's begin with the difference between detoxing and fasting because contrary to popular belief they are different. Fasting means we are abstaining from eating and drinking all together for a set period of time. A water fast is the most common type of fast, where only filtered water is consumed. While fasting will lead to a detoxification of body systems it is not necessary to fast in order to detox To detox means to cleanse something. To do this we need to stop bringing in rubbish (ie toxins) into the body. I...

If you missed it head to https://aurorahealingcodes.libsyn.com/ to check it out. A saliva test is a sampling of saliva that will give a breakdown of 7 different hormones that we can look at as a benchmark for where you are at. In females we test Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), morning cortisol, progesterone, testosteron, estrogen1 (E1), estrogen 2 (E2) and estrogen 3 (E3), ratios between E1, E2 and E3 and ratios between estrogen and progesterone. Because f...
2020-11-2419 minEssentially QuinnyGoal Setting in Relation to the Human BodyIf the body and mindset are not aligned with your goals then you are going to have trouble reaching your goals. How does this work? To start with, let’s look at the hormonal system. Our hormones can control our mood. They are proteins and they connect different parts of our body, acting like a messenger. For example, some hormones control sugars, some help us to grow and some are the commonly known sex hormones which regulate our libido amongst other things. There are lots of different types of hormones and each of ou...

Marilyn’s background is in education and career development and she enjoys helping people set and achieve their goals. With the end of the year creeping up we thought it was a good time to speak about setting goals because most people set them, but very few achieve them. For goals to become a reality, decisions need to be made but a lot of the time people don't even know what they want. There are 3 different types of goals...

The Long TakeBorat Subsequent MoviefilmIs Sacha Baron Cohen’s secretly filmed satire sequel, Borat Subsequent Moviefilm, the final blow to an (hopefully) outgoing president or a pointed exploration of American society?
We also discuss the legitimacy of that outrageous Rudy Giuliani scene, the film’s unexpected feminist values, and the performances of its leads: newcomer Maria Bakalova, and Cohen.
Later, we talk about another Netflix India dud, the Shabana Azmi-starrer horror Kaali Khuhi, and Spike Lee’s inventive new film, David Byrne’s American Utopia.
