Medicinal Herbs Provided By The Lake Atitlan Herbal Pharmacy

For the past two years, I offered this service from Lake Atitlan, Guatemala working with indigenous medical practitioners whose knowledge and practice of traditional medicine in Guatemala is as diverse as its cultural heritage and botanical diversity. It is an area rich in cultural diversity, as well as home to a rich biodiversity and immense ecosystem—in fact, the number of herbs used for medicines is utterly endless.

The Life Force – Life energy similar to Chi in Eastern medicine, is everywhere and it means everyone and everything are connected.

Body and Soul Connected – There is no separation between the physical and spiritual realms, they are only different ends of a continuum. Within the continuum are spirits that can help to heal us.

Natural Cycles and Plants – Everything is part of a natural cycle. Plants choose healers and a special relationship develops which allows the healer to utilize the plants.

No One Component of healing is more important – All components of healing, the patient, the healer, their spirits, the plants, and prayer are all equal.

Status of the Blood – Pulses are used to determine imbalance and whether an illness is physical or spiritual. This will in turn determine the course of treatment.

Hot and Cold – Some diseases are “hot” (vomiting) and some are “cold” (paralysis). Some foods are “hot” (onions) and some foods are “cold” (cheese). “Hot” plants treat “Cold” diseases and vice versa. Locals believe it is not wise to eat or drink something very hot and then very cold or vice versa because it’s a shock to the system and will cause gastrointestinal problems.
