Welcome to Episode 235 of the Whole Body Detox Show with David DeHaas from Living Waters Wellness Center. In this eye-opening episode, David dives deep into natural solutions for inflammation and chronic pain, uncovering the power of detoxification, colon hydrotherapy, Boswellia (aka Frankincense), turmeric (KecheraMin), Devil's Claw, White Willow Bark, and more.Whether you're dealing with arthritis, asthma, gut issues, or chronic fatigue, this video is packed with actionable insights to help you reclaim your energy and reduce pain—naturally.
On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared welcomes back naturopathic physician Dr. Lexi Loch from Terry Naturally to uncover two of the most powerful herbs in natural medicine: Boswellia and Curcumin (from Turmeric). While many are familiar with turmeric for inflammation, few realize that Boswellia (also known as frankincense) targets a completely different inflammatory pathway—one that traditional NSAIDs and pain relievers don't touch. Together, these herbs form a potent, well-researched duo for addressing pain and inflammation in the gut, joints, lungs, and beyond. You'll learn about the unique pathway that Boswellia modulates, the advantages of this unique curcumin extract over conventional turmeric extracts, and how combining the two offers faster and longer-lasting support. Whether you're struggling with IBS, asthma, joint pain, or simply want to manage everyday inflammation more naturally, this episode provides evidence-based insight and practical guidance you can trust.Products:Terry Naturally Boswellia & Curcumin ProductsAdditional Information:#524: Maximum Absorption of Nutrients for Energy, Pain, Immune, and Respiratory Challenges with Dr. Lexi LochVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

Welcome back to another episode of Essential Aromatica! This episode is a bit different—I'm taking a moment to say hello again, reconnect with you, and reflect on why I started this podcast in the first place. From gaps created by the pandemic to a deep desire to share knowledge and cultivate connection, this podcast has been a personal project of passion and purpose.I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to Reverend Ben DeHart, a guide in my foray into podcasting, co-host of Our Triune Pod, and someone whose encouragement made all the difference.This episode is an opportunity to revisit the core reasons behind Essential Aromatica:Rebuilding connection through shared passion – The aromatherapy school I taught at shut down soon after the pandemic started, I felt the loss deeply. My podcast became a way to continue sharing, to reach others, and to keep inspiring—even without an in-person classroom.Connection to nature – A personal story on how aromatherapy became my path.Making aromatherapy accessible – It's about connecting with nature, plants, everything that is bigger than and includes us. (Go for a walk outside!!!!)Along the way, I'll share insights from my newly published article on Rhododendron anthopogon, a gem of an essential oil I've come to think of as Nepal's Frankincense. Its ability to bring clarity, lightheartedness, and mental stillness makes it invaluable when we seek lucidity amidst overwhelm.Plus, in the spirit of balancing bitterness and sweetness, I have to bring up Hecate, a guide through liminal spaces, and introduce Lilith into the mix. These gloriously “dark” archetypes are juxtaposed against Jasmine and Yuliana Kireyeva's mesmerizing olfactory sound composition.

In this Bible Study, we go verse by verse through Leviticus chapter 2. We unpack the multiple types of prepared Grain offerings instructed by God for the Israelites to make. We also take a deep look at Leaven / Yeast in the Bible as well as why salt was always to be included in the grain offering. Finally, as always, we conclude with an application of this text for our lives today. Join us as we dig deep into scripture!Outline: 03:28 - Background explanation05:25 - “Grain Offering” - Hebrew word study - Minḥâ מִנְחָה (gift), (offering) - it is a gift to the Lord.Gen 32-33 - we see Jacob reunited with his brother Esau Gen 43.11 - gifts for Joseph in Egypt. Same word. 07:03 - A portion was burned on the altar - the rest went to the priest for their food. 1 Cor 9.13-14, Deut 25.410:14 - support the work of Iron Sheep Ministries - Mail your gift to 4300 Route 50, Suite 105, Saratoga Springs NY 12866Or give online at -www.ironsheep.org/donate11:38 - Grain Offerings were often offered with other sacrifices Lev 9.4“grain offering” occurs 93x in NIV - 29x Lev, 44x Num.

Those two chapters summarize offerings to be made daily, weekly, monthly, and at annual festivals (Passover, Day of Atonement, Festival of Weeks, etc). 13:08 - 5 different types of grain offerings in Lev 2Lev 2.1-3 - 1 - uncooked - includes incense (niv) - KJV, AMP, CSB, ESV - “Frankincense”13:57 - What is Frankincense? It is a dried resin from the Boswellia tree (native to the Sinai peninsula). It is a key ingredient in incense. Used throughout the ancient Near East as part of burnt sacrifices. Mat 2.11 it was a gift brought from the Magi, which symbolized Jesus' future sacrifice he would become on the altar for our atonement of sin.15:47 - Lev 2.4 - 2 baked in an oven - thin or thick loaves Lev 2.5-6 - 3 cooked on a griddleLev 2.7 - 4 cooked in a pan16:14 - Lev 2.11-12- no yeast (leaven) or honey? 16:46 - Topical look at Yeast (leaven) in the Bible. “Yeast” occurs 57 times in the NIV; 10 in the New Testament and 47 in the Old Testament. In OT yeast is always literal and related to cooking in bread.Gen 19.3 - Lot makes bread without yeastExo 12-13 - God's instructions on the Passover meal. They had no time to let the yeast rise. Deu 16:3.Lev 7.13 & Lev 23.17 - both are instances of bread made with yeast.In the New Testament, yeast is always figurative, sometimes good and sometimes bad.Matt 13.33, & Luke 13.20-21, yeast represents the Kingdom of HeavenMatt 16.5-12; (Mrk 8.14-21) yeast represents sin, specifically hypocrisy (Luke 12.1)Gal 5.9 - yeast is false teaching 1 Cor 5.6-7 - yeast is sin, malice & wickedness28:02 - Lev 2.13 - what is the “salt of the covenant of your God” Salt is a preservative and a flavor enhancer. Salt was added to all the offerings as a reminder that the offerings were a preservative of the covenant. Salt is also a picture of how we are to be as Christians. Read Matthew 5.13, where Jesus calls us to be the Salt of the Earth.31:15 - Lev 2.14-16 - Firstfruits - What are first fruits? 1 Cor 15.19-2134:17 - Conclusion and Application. 1 Thes 5.16-18; John 6.29-35.

We journey with the Magi to Bethlehem in our Gospel today, unraveling the ancient prophecy from the Book of Numbers that sent shockwaves through Herod's court. Who were these mysterious visitors and what does their presence reveal about Salvation History? We'll also dig into historical and astronomical insights into the Star of Bethlehem and unpack the profound symbolism behind the threefold gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. Finally, we'll explore the subtle allusions to Solomon in our text which firmly plant Jesus as the rightful successor to the Davidic throne. // Join Katie's Jubilee Year Pilgrimage to Rome and Assisi: https://bit.ly/rome_assisi

Gift-giving has been a Christmas tradition since the wise men brought gifts to Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. Every gift and everything we find in the Word has a physical and a spiritual application.
“The Nabateans are a silent partner in everything that goes on in the high summer of the Ancient period” - Bettany Hughes By the time of Jesus' birth, a mysterious empire had built its wealth through trading two of the gifts present at the Nativity: frankincense and myrrh. Aromatic crystals harvested from the sap of gnarled trees, frankincense and myrrh were highly desirable commodities known as the tears or the breath of the gods. Based along the coast of the Red Sea, the nomadic Nabatean people were engineers, mariners and savvy traders, and they cleverly placed themselves as the middlemen in the trade of this incense. The Nabateans gave the world Arabic, and had a kingdom that even Alexander the Great could not siege - so why do so many of us know nothing about them? Listen as Anita and William are joined by Bettany Hughes to discuss how the Christmas gifts of frankincense and myrrh powered a mysterious and innovative kingdom… Twitter: @Empirepoduk Email: empirepoduk@gmail.com Goalhangerpodcasts.com Assistant Producers: Anouska Lewis & Evan Green Producer: Callum Hill Exec Producer: Neil Fearn Learn more about your ad choices.

Giving gifts to Christ is like fasting — going without something to show that Christ is more valuable than what you are going without.
In this week's episode, we conclude our three part series on the heart and Pope Francis' recent encyclical Dilexit Nos. We reflect on Scripture as a personal love story, how it speaks to our areas of weakness, and the awesome reality of Jesus desiring to love and heal us there. The Lord meets us where we are and He is always seeking to bring our hearts closer to His. He speaks directly to each one of us with an invitation to be loved and to love. This invitation of love requires a response not only in big moments but in the ordinary moments of each day. Heather's One Thing - Her friends Laura and Brandon Sister Miriam's One Thing - Farkle Classic Dice Game Michelle's One Thing - Nazareth Organics (especially the Sleep Balm) Michelle's Other One Thing - The Florida State vs UNC game Other Resources Mentioned: “Dilexit Nos”: A brief guide for busy readers Dilexit Nos audio version Journal Questions: How do I experience spiritual amnesia and forget the ways the Lord loves me? When have I experienced the tender love of the Lord in places of poverty and isolation in my heart? Where in my life do I need to hear the sweet sound of the Lord's heartbeats? What does Jesus want to convey to me through that sound? What parts of Christ's Body, the Church, do I fail to love? Discussion Questions: How has the Lord being present to your heart brought you healing and communion? How has the barrage of tragedy and hardship from the news and social media hardened your heart toward human suffering? Where are the lukewarm places of your heart? What conversations can you have, actions can you take, or apologies can you make to love your neighbor like Christ? Quotes to Ponder: The pierced heart of Christ embodies all God's declarations of love present in the Scriptures. That love is no mere matter of words; rather, the open side of his Son is a source of life for those whom he loves, the fount that quenches the thirst of his people. (Pope Francis, “Dilexit Nos”, Paragraph 101) Saint Augustine opened the way to devotion to the Sacred Heart as the locus of our personal encounter with the Lord. For Augustine, Christ's wounded side is not only the source of grace and the sacraments, but also the symbol of our intimate union with Christ, the setting of an encounter of love. There we find the source of the most precious wisdom of all, which is knowledge of him. In effect, Augustine writes that John, the beloved disciple, reclining on Jesus' bosom at the Last Supper, drew near to the secret place of wisdom. (Pope Francis, “Dilexit Nos”, Paragraph 103) Scripture for Lectio: “I led them with cords of human kindness, with bands of love. I was to them like those who lift infants to their cheeks. I bent down to them and fed them.” (Hosea 11:4) Sponsor - Leanne Bowen: Today's sponsor is Leanne Bowen Fine Art. We love her prints and her candles.
