Health Dictionary on Biodynamic psychology
biodynamic psychology (Biodynamic therapy): Therapeutic approach developed by Gerda Boyesen, a clinical psychologist and physiotherapist born in Norway. It is related to bioenergetics. One of its principles is that, when bodily fluids do not circulate efficiently or tissues are not properly cleansed, emotional tensions or blockages show up and keep bioenergy from vitalizing the body.

Health Dictionary on Primal therapy
primal therapy (primal scream therapy): Mode of psychotherapy developed by child psychologist Arthur Janov, author of The Primal Scream (1970). Primal therapists dispense with analysis and, through a process of painful catharsis, attempt to resolve neuroses. Janov maintained that, to be effective, psychotherapy must uncover repressed primal pains - unpleasant events undergone not only during childhood and infancy, but even in the fetal and embryonic stages. According to Janov, patients can dispel primal pains only by re-experiencing them and giving them physical expression (e.g., by screaming). The crux of primal therapy is rebirthing. Variations of primal therapy include Bio Scream Psychotherapy and the New Identity Process (NIP).

Health Dictionary on Grape Cure
Grape Cure (grape diet): Mono-diet advanced by Johanna Brandt, N.D., Ph.N., author of The Grape Cure ((c) 1928). The front matter of the 1967 edition, a paperback published by Benedict Lust Publications, quotes the author: My discovery of the Grape diet is the direct result of Divine Illumination. The grape diet consists of grapes or grape juice. Brandt held that the mind operated through magnetism and that the Grape Cure contributed to the purification and buildup of magnetism. She recommended it for appendicitis, cancer, diabetes, gout, pyorrhea, rheumatism, scurvy, sex problems, tuberculosis, unnatural cravings (as for alcoholic beverages, coffee, tea, and tobacco), and other conditions. Under the heading Sex Problems, she stated: By the magical purification of the blood the nerves are stabilized, self-control is established and our God-given heritage of sense and desire is transmitted into divine creative power.

Health Dictionary on Ayurvedic nutrition
Ayurvedic nutrition (Ayurvedic diet): Nutritional phase of Ayurveda. It involves eating according to (a) one's body type and (b) the season. The activity of the doshas - three bodily humors, dynamic forces, or spirits that possess - determines one's body type. In Ayurveda, body types number seven, eight, or ten, and seasons traditionally number six. Each two-month season corresponds to a dosha; for example, the two seasons that correspond to the dosha named Pitta (see Raktamoksha) constitute the period of mid-March through mid-July. But some proponents enumerate three seasons: summer (when pitta predominates), autumn, and winter (the season of kapha); or Vata season (fall and winter), Kapha season (spring), and Pitta season (summer). According to Ayurvedic theory, one should lessen one's intake of foods that increase (aggravate) the ascendant dosha.

Health Dictionary on Herbal crystallization analysis
herbal crystallization analysis (HCA, HCA test, herbal identification, Herbal Tracer Test): Ostensibly diagnostic method developed by Prof. George Benner, a Master Herbologist and the author of Herbal Crystals as Curative Patterns (1979). Benner's primary inspiration was a method of botanical identification developed by occultist Rudolf Steiner in the 1920s (see anthroposophical medicine). Steiner's method involved crystallizing the sap of botanical specimens with a solution of copper sulfate. The result was a crystalline fingerprint of the herb. Benner similarly processed saliva. He decided that the resultant salivary configurations correlated with the configurations of herbs useful, according to folklore, against the donors' health problems. the number of specimens of a single herb that match a saliva specimen is a barometer of the donor's need for that herb: the more matches, the greater the need.
