Why do we deny or ignore climate change?

April 4, 2016 Leave a Comment

Over 25 years ago James Hansen presented evidence about global warming to US congress in 1988. Discussions have gone on since then and most outcomes are about postponing decisions. The general public has not been activated except in small pockets around the world. Today in Southern Africa, climate change is already having a major impact on weather, food supply and water and … [Read more...]

Parasite in fish’s mouth becomes his tongue

December 8, 2014 Leave a Comment

A parasite that lives in a fish's mouth and becomes its tongue? Sixty million viruses in a teaspoon of sea water? A shimmering sunset glistening through the curl of a golden barrel? Just a few snippets from the Wavescape Slide Night night in Cape Town. More than 200 people sat enthralled through 10 inspirational talks by 10 ocean thought leaders who shared their science, … [Read more...]

True food enlivens body and soul

true-food-enlivens-body-and-soul

I was privileged to meet the creater and owner of Organic at Heart, “a true food restaurant” in Plumstead, where we recently enjoyed a great staff meeting. If you look at the menu and notice that they cater for wheat free, sugar free, gluten free, raw, vegetarian and vegan eaters, it’s obvious that the woman behind this initiative knows her health science. But little did I … [Read more...]

What does prosperity mean in Cape Town?

June 11, 2013 Leave a Comment

what-does-prosperity-mean-in-cape-town?

A Spiritual Master once said to me that where our thoughts dwell is who we become. Expanding this idea globally (and judging by the symptoms) it is obvious that western collective thought is about progress, moneymaking, consumerism and individualism. Our collective human identity has been buoyed up by the story of economic growth as being the driver of prosperity. And yet what … [Read more...]

For as long as mankind has been on planet earth, we have been trying to heal ourselves when physical ailments have troubled us. Through the centuries this healing has continually evolved and changed until what it is today. Looking back it all began with the humble plant and noticing changes in our bodies when taken into the system or applied to wounds. In the last 100 years … [Read more...]

Dr Peycho Zlatev, MD, has worked as a doctor for all his life after graduation, which totals more than 41 years.

Light heals at a cellular level

October 17, 2012 Leave a Comment

light-heals-at-a-cellular-level

How our physical body is able to initiate and complete its own healing is one of its most remarkable features. Even a simple finger cut initiates responses from dozens of types of cells – the smallest units in our body – coordinated to achieve specific results, such as stopping blood loss, killing foreign bacteria and preventing infection, creating new blood capillaries, … [Read more...]

Natural fix for family health – Part 1

July 18, 2012 Leave a Comment

natural-fix-for-family-health-part-1

I believe that mothers are born natural healers. Intuition led us for millions of years to care for our young and look after their health. That’s why we are normally the first to notice when one of our family is off colour. I once had a relatively conscious GP – a rare breed in South Africa. He told me long ago: “The most important thing a medical student can learn in … [Read more...]
