We're super excited this week to offer our first challenge as @naturalmedicine. We've been so thrilled with the use of this tag over the last few days, and have really got the sense that natural remedies and healings are important to so many of you.
We knew we'd run a competition this week to get word out about this community, and talking to you all really solidified the question we'd pose for this contest:
Here @naturalmedicine, we are absolute advocates of natural healing and also respect the research that has gone into these modalities. We ask that you share a detailed glimpse into how natural medicine has impacted your life.
Posts will be judged on
- quality of entry (length, photos, intrigue of personal story)
- any studies linked to the efficacy of this type of healing
- detail of post
- formatting and photographs
- following the rules below.
It can be a small change, or a big one. It can be an old story, or a new one. It might even be the impact a natural medicine has made to someone you know and love. This week already we've seen the effects CBD has on anxiety, how nature heals a wounded heart, and how chaga led to love and happiness. We're not particular about the type of natural healing, only that it's been a remedy in some way for your mind, body and spirit.
We'd love to know your stories - the personal, the moving and the profound.
We'd also love to know a little bit of the science behind your natural medicine - is there any research that supports it's benefits?
If you'd like a hand with any of this, please contact either @mountainjewel, @riverflows or @holisticmom on Discord and we'd be happy to throw some tips your way. We want YOU to be successful, and we want this community to grow.
