The ancient Slavs in their Zdrava reasoned simply. What is the main thing in a person? Only body, only feelings and only thoughts. Then what is necessary to maintain good health?
First of all, you need to determine what is best suited for this or that type of body (constitution), this or that temperament (emotional sphere), how a person can rearrange his thoughts so that they do not interfere with him being healthy, self-confident, joyful and happy.
They relied on what they called “bodily surya”. What it is? These are three biological juices of life that are in constant change, maintaining a dynamic balance among themselves.
Called in Zdrav "borea", "feathery" and "velesitsa" are the three basic energies responsible for all physiological and psychological processes taking place inside the body and mind.
"Borea" is a force consisting of the elements of ether and air. The activity of a given force depends on the proportions of these two elements; the volume of ether (space) is determined by the ability of air to gain strength "Borea" - this is the principle of movement, the principle of dynamic interaction of ether and air. In the human body, it manifests itself in the movement of nerve impulses, air, blood, food, waste and thoughts.
Seven qualities are inherent in "Borea" - coldness, lightness, inconsistency, mobility, dryness, sparseness and roughness. These qualities determine the influence of this "bodily surya" on the human body.
An excess of "borea" can cause nervous irritation, high blood pressure, gas in the intestines, and confusion in thoughts. This, in fact, is not at all surprising, because "borea" is similar to air. And when the movement of air is not restrained by any obstacles (as, for example, over the surface of the ocean), the wind will gain such strength that hurricanes will easily arise, the destructive effect of which is known to the whole world.
The lack of "borea" leads to the death of nerve cells, constipation and congestion, and also gives rise to carelessness and imprudence. And this, too, should not surprise anyone - in an enclosed space, the air cannot move and becomes musty.

"Perynya" is the force, the energy that arises due to the dynamic interaction of water and fire. Both water and fire, as you know, symbolize transformation, transformation, which is the similarity between these two forces, at first glance. in everything opposite to each other. True, fire and water cannot turn into each other. But they are able to modify each other and cannot do without the other in any of the biological processes.
At the physical level, "feathery" is manifested in the form of enzymes that ensure digestion, and hormones that regulate metabolic processes. At the psychic level, this force transforms electrochemical impulses into concrete thoughts. An excess of feathers can cause peptic ulcer disease, hormonal disorders, and irritation (for example, acne poured out on the face and ruined the skin, it's a shame, but all this is a feather!), And violent emotions.
Lack of feathers leads to indigestion, hinders thought processes and slows down metabolism. All this is due to the eight qualities of this force, it is these qualities that affect the body: "feather" is hot, light, fluid, thin, sharp, foul-smelling, soft and transparent.
What is the third "bodily surya" - "Velesitsa"? This is the balance of water and earth. On one level, "Velesitsa" are the cells that make up the tissues of our body, and on the other - the fluids that provide nutrition and safety of these cells. In accordance with the law of Slavic Zdrava, an excess of "Velesitsa" leads to the accumulation of mucus. If we set the water to boil over too high a heat, the water will boil away, and the vessel will burn … When we pour too much water into the vessel, it splashes out and floods the fire.
If you throw a handful of river sand into a vessel with water, these two substances will not mix with each other, the sand will settle to the bottom of the vessel. It will be possible to achieve uniform distribution of sand in water only with constant stirring. Here "Velesitsa" is similar to such a process that ensures balance in the nasal sinuses, in the nasal cavity, in the lungs and colon. In the sphere of the psyche, this "bodily surya" can give rise to stubbornness, blinkeredness and intransigence. Lack of Velesitsa causes dryness in the airways, heartburn (due to a lack of mucus that protects the walls of the gastrointestinal tract from the destructive effects of gastric acid) and an inability to concentrate. This is probably due to the fact that Velesice
When the three "bodily suryas" are balanced and in a state of harmonious balance, everything is in order with health. The Slavic Zdrava says: " Borea ", the following qualities are inherent: fatness, coldness, heaviness, stability, density, smoothness. "Feather" and "velesitsa" maintain the integrity of the living human body in its normal state and combine with each other in such a way as to make a person an integral being with his powerful indriyas [senses], good complexion and undoubted longevity. Disease occurs only when there is an imbalance of the three forces. And since it is the strongest "bodily surya" that usually has the greatest tendency to increase, a person is most susceptible to diseases associated with an increase in his most powerful bodily surya.
To become a truly healthy person, you need to learn how to control all the elements of the ancient elements that determine your main "bodily surfeit": Air, Water and Fire.
Recovery of "borea"
Just imagine that you are the element, the air. The air is characterized most of all by warmth and dampness. We are looking for among the things around us those that are simultaneously inherent in both warmth and dampness. We make a list of them for exactly 7 days.
When you learn this seemingly simple matter, find a secluded place and there you learn to rise above the ground, surrounding yourself with air on all sides. Take off all your clothes in this place. For what? Let as much air as possible touch you. Feel the air going out and entering your body. It is drawn in through your nose, into your body, and into your lungs. Remember that each part of it is designed for only one thing - to breathe, and your skin is also a part of this amazing system.
Feel the air purify your entire body. Feel extraordinary lightness, even a slight dizziness, warmth and humidity Become air yourself, "bodily surya" "borea"! And now it is important to learn how to control the air. To do this, imagine yourself as a light breeze, and then stretch your hands with your palms to each other at a short distance (15-20 cm). As you exhale, imagine how the air comes out of you and fills the space formed, "closed" by your hands. In order to fill this space, 3-5 exhalations are enough. Then inhale the air and return to your normal state.
You did not just do "breathing exercises", together with the air you exhaled all diseases, all evil. Extend your arms again and fill the space that your hands have outlined with air to overflowing. Then imagine a large "black hole" (as the Slavs said, "a passage to the undead") and "push" all the air out of the mentioned space into this very "hole".
Then seal the "black hole" forever and ever. Do you feel the touchdown? You can be congratulated on getting rid of the disease!
Restoration of the "feather"
Let's try to focus on healing the feathery that has become loose in our body. Remember what properties water has? That's right - coolness and dampness. Now try to notice the things around you that have these very qualities. To merge with the water, you need to take off your clothes and enter the cool water (bath, lake or river). You can bring a breathing tube with you to dive deeper into the water. Feel the air leaving your body. Imagine that your body is a huge breathing apparatus. Every part of him breathes, every pore of his skin breathes … water. The water cleans you and comes out. But be careful: do not identify the element of water from the primordial force of "feathers" with physical water, otherwise it will not take long to drown!
And for another 3 minutes a day, imagine that you are Water. Feel its fluidity, coolness, refreshing moisture. Know it in all its manifestations. And one day you will learn to “be Water”.
We banish disease with water
How can one try to expel the disease using the ancient Slavic practice related to water? Pretty simple. Take a moment and imagine yourself as Water. Raise your arms up so that there is about 20 cm between the palms facing each other.
Now imagine holding a small barrel in your hands. And as you exhale, slowly draw how water flows from you, and with it all your diseases, into this very barrel. It should fill up in 4-7 breaths. As soon as this happens, take 3 deep breaths and pour the water with the diseases away, and then return to normal.
We treat the fiery component of the force of "feathers"
Fire is a bad joke. The Slavs had special days for fiery cleansing practices: December 25, March 21-25, June 22 and the so-called parental days.
The disdainful attitude towards the "fire-father" in the Slavic world was unacceptable, since it was considered a manifestation of the essence of the divine Rule.
Here is the oldest and most famous treasure:
“Father, you are the king Fire, you are the king of all kings. Be merciful, how hot and ardent you are, how you burn and burn in the open field of grass-ants, bowls and slums, at the root of a raw oak tree. In the same way I pray, reproach those ka: Father, Tsar Fire, burn and sleep with the grandson of God all sorrows and ailments, fears and commotions!"
Before the fiery cleansing practice, one usually should not “eat the fruits of trees al from forest and domestic cattle, being content with three boiled field cereals”, but in a simple way - porridge, that is, the Slav was instructed to purify the body. But not a simple cleansing. The sacred meaning of eating grain was that each seed was considered a symbol of the will of life. How long did it take to "sit on porridge"? There was no strict time frame for this in Zdrav: maybe a day, 3 days, a week … The term was determined by the person himself, as far as Faith allowed him.
After such a post, you will need the following. Find a hot, dry (no steam) place. If this is not possible, sit as close to the fire as possible. Take off all your clothes, cover only your chest and other sensitive parts of the body. It will be very hot, but breathing should not be difficult. Concentrate on your breathing and feel the heated air enter and exit your lungs. Imagine that your whole body is a huge breathing apparatus, and each pore of your skin breathes with warmth and dryness - the Fire of "feathers".
The fire goes all over your body and cleanses it. When you exhale, it carries with it all the toxic substances, pain and suffering. But remember: you need to perform this exercise only when you are near a real fire and for no more than 10 minutes. Since when doing this healing practice, you can easily lose the sense of time, it is better to set an alarm in advance, and then drink 1-2 glasses of cool, but not ice-cold water and get away from the heat.
Getting rid of colds, or "fire breathing"
Sit comfortably. If you want to effectively and quickly get rid of a cold, you have to master the principle of "fire exhalation". Bring your palm to your lips and exhale slowly and lightly to warm it with the exhaled air. If you did the right thing, then your palm is hot and sweaty.
Now let's try to "burn out" the cold. Place both palms on your stomach and take a deep breath. Close your eyes. Begin to exhale slowly inward, to the lower chest area, or rather, to the very center of the lower chest. Ensure that due to such exhalations, the entire lower sternum is warmed up, filling it with warmth.
Now wrap the warm knitted scarf around your wrist. Bring your lips close to the scarf or handkerchief above your hand and begin to exhale the "fire breath" as if into the scarf itself. You will feel like a hot compress, and the heat will penetrate and warm your hand.
Now wrap this scarf around your neck and repeat the exercise. Breathe out into the Adam's apple on the neck. Due to such exhalations, you will warm up the entire neck.
The internal exhalation of "fiery breath" among the Slavs was considered very useful: it quickly filled any part of the body with warm sparkling energy, expelling the disease.
Restoration of "Velesitsa"
Physical strength "Velesitsa" is. first of all, the earth; it's a stone. And the healing practices of the Slavs associated with this "bodily surya" were work with a stone.
Stone practice
The stone has always been, at least Russian, since ancient times Slavic stone. Listen to the words:
"Kolo Roda". “Rod gave birth to the Sedava-star [the Star of the Rod, the North Star] above, and below it is the Alatyr Stone. And Alatyrem churned and churned Milk - and from butter gave birth to Mother Earth … Mount Alatyrskaya rose. " Stones and stars - nothing more. When Rod strikes the stone of Alatyr with a hammer, gods are born from sparks, they rush into the sky as stars. The stone (mountain) Alatyr is beautiful, surrounded by seven heavens, the Golden Age reigns on it - the Age of Supreme Bliss. (By the way, this is where the Russian proverb originated: "In seventh heaven with happiness").
For the Slavs, he is the central point of the infinite Cosmos; around him, this world axis, revolved the constellations of both Bears, the Sun, the Moon, the planets and the host of stars. The northern slope of Mount Alatyrskaya is made of pure gold, the southern one is made of sapphires, the western one is made of rubies, the eastern one is made of pure silver. Here people live for at least a thousand years, and the World Tree grows, according to which each of the inhabitants of the Alatyr stone learns in a week about his impending death in a series of continuous transformations.
The stone has always been … Life is a stone, and a stone is a life worthy of its great stone ritual …
In Russian hagiographic literature, the facts of ritual worship of stones are constantly noted. So, until the 19th century, in the Odoevsky district of the Tula province, local residents served two large stones, from century to century known by name as Bash and Bashikha. You can grasp these stones with your hands. "It is said that a person suffering from a serious illness is cured if, being tied … he spends the night in this position" (E. Lassota; end of the 16th century). In some unknown way (or thanks to the Great Knowledge of the True Initiates?), The Slavs learned that before sunrise, ultrasound pulses emanate from Bash and Bashikha, which subsequently fade, that this radiation is most intense and lasting during the equinoxes, but minimally during solstices. On a powerful energy flow, the requests of a person stricken with an illness fell to the gods through a "direct communication channel."
Oh, these stone healers, objects of cult worship of a Slavic man! This is what Russian ethnographers reported at the end of the 19th century: in the Kharkov province, sick children are brought to the so-called "stone woman".
Not every mother, even in those distant times, was ready to give her own child into the hands of a magician, a healer. The great stones of Nature did not cause fear and mistrust, for they were given by the Earth itself and are its integral part, a part of unlimited Life. They are the best medicine men.
In Galician Pokutye there is a two-faced "stone woman": some see in her the images of Lel and Polel, others - Dazhdbog and Lada. From century to century, the ancient Slavs scraped off particles from the stone and used the extracted stone dust as a medicine.
They also had another "stone ritual". During a drought, this "woman" was laid on the ground so that she could beg for rain from the cosmic forces, and in excessively rainy weather they put her head up, again energetically and informationally setting her up for communication with That Light, the Light of the gods.
In the Moscow region, to this day, they are surrounded by rituals of admiration Shutov Kamen, Sin-Kamen near Pereslavl-Zalessky and Bozh-Kamen near Tula. Near them to this day (!) You can see hanging baby diapers, kerchiefs, kerchiefs, etc.
And how can you not read them, not recognize them as part of the great ritual of life, if they are said about them in the "Veles Book", and in the hymns of the Rig Veda, and in the "Book of Kolyada" ?! God Val (Veles) turned into a great stone-boulder and hid the heavenly clouds-cows (it was not for nothing that the Slavs Veles were revered as a "cattle god"), the life-giving rains on Mother Earth stopped. That is why Indra (Indrik), together with Semargl and Barma, at the behest of the Highest God, hit the Veles boulder and opened it. “And we became believers, and were together with the gods …” (“Veles's Book”).
How not to bow in the ritual of Life to the Blue Star itself, which turned into a Blue Stone on Pleshcheev Lake? He "sailed" to Yarilina Mountain, to people along the streams of Lake Pleshcheevo, he embodied on Earth one of the faces of the Most High. They say (and they say not in vain) that the Xin-Stone is able to independently move in space, fly.
Popular rumor says that when during the crusade struggle between Christianity and paganism, a stone was pushed into the lake, it miraculously returned to its original place at night.
The following healing procedure is practiced at the stones of these wondrous people. Mothers take a ladle of water from a stream or river (lake), pour it over a stone, and then collect the water in a separate container.
This water is revered as a saint; babies are poured (consecrated) with it. Then they are changed into new underwear, and the old ones are left by the stone. During the ritual, the following conspiracy text is pronounced:
“I will become (name), blessing, I will go to the blue river. On a blue river, on a steep mountain, lies the white-combustible stone Alatyr (that is, Sin-Kamen, Shutov Kamen, etc.). As the frosty water rolled down from the body of the white, so pull away from (name) the dear fireball (fever, fever, etc.), from the violent head, from clear eyes, from black eyebrows, from a white calf, from a zealous heart … - go to the wind, come from the water - go to the water, come from the forest - go to the forest from now on and forever."
The stones-gods, grateful for the treasures-rituals performed by them, guarded the Russian people, warned of impending dangers. There was a boulder in Uglich - Petukhov stone - on its upper part, a trace could be seen from a huge rooster. When any danger threatened the Uglich people, the “cattle god” Veles (patron-defender) flew in and sat down on this boulder in the form of a huge rooster and warned the inhabitants with three crows, calling them to be vigilant. And, since the dangers followed one after another, and Uglich was not "offended" by the misfortunes (what is at least the murder of Tsarevich Dimitri and the "Uglich affair", as a result of which a good half of the city went to Siberia by escort ?!), Veles-Rooster? flew in so often that a deep mark from his foot formed on the boulder. Traces of God … Veles were grateful for the warnings and in solemn rituals they donated gold and several stalks of cereals to the stone, the so-called"
