The Vegtastic Voyage Tour Of The Sauna At The Dr. Sebi Usha Village
The Vegtastic Voyage gives us a guided tour of Dr. Sebi’s Usha Village in Honduras. He starts off in the kitchen letting us see how food is prepared for the visitors to the healing village.
Before you he enters the kitchen he passes through a communal dinner area where highly alkaline and health supporting foods and herbs are served in the morning and the afternoon. Visitors are also given seamoss drinks that they can drink throughout the day and evening.
On this particular day spelt spaghetti was being prepared for the afternoon meal. The cooks were also preparing drinks made from whole seamoss, which serve as a natural mineral supplement drink to assist in internal nourishment and cleansing.
The cooks were also boiling whole natural tamarind which could be used as a paste or to make a tamarind juice. Besides the healing foods the village offered, it also offered saunas that used natural alkaline thermal waters to not only heat the air but also to saturate the air with the health supporting alkaline components of the water.
This is important because the body works to keep the blood and fluids in a slightly alkaline state which ramps up the immune system making for inhospitable environment for disease.
The Vegtastic Voyage also gave us a detailed rundown of the saunas at the village. The are two sides to a sauna and one side gets hotter than the other.
The sauna is fed by the natural thermal spring waters that had been directed to the Usha Village. The sauna worked by opening the valve to the water feed which allowed the thermal waters to enter a pool of water that is in the floor.
The water rises and covers the floor so it is necessary to wear footwear like crocks to protect your feet from the hot water. The water that is brought into the sauna saturates the air with alkaline water that penetrates the skin and promotes detoxification.
The other side of the sauna that doesn’t get as hot but has herbs in the pool of water, like lemongrass and eucalyptus. The hot water releases the oils of the herbs into the air which are absorbed by the skin to promote healing.
