Castor Oil Packs: One Woman's Cure for Alcoholism
Regarding an adult woman, alcoholic for more than 20 years…
An alcoholic for more than 20 years is the description one of our correspondents gave herself in a research report which she submitted recently. But she used castor oil packs on her abdomen for an entirely
different reason four years ago. It seemed that she had developed a severe abdominal pain. She did not consult her doctor, so her own diagnosis of "probably an intestinal disorder" will have to suffice, no matter how inadequate. She reports that her pain lessened a little each day, as she applied the packs on a twice daily routine. An apparent
constipation was thoroughly corrected on the second day, but she continued the packs for a period of two weeks.
The most remarkable result of her own little adventure in consciousness, however, is the real point of this story. She adds as a
postscript to her report that "Since the day I first used oil packs, I have not touched a drop of liquor - nor have I had the desire to do so. I was an alcoholic for more than 20 years. I used to drink myself to sleep every single night."
My question is: What is it that happens to people that makes a simple act of healing turn their lives into a new channel of living? Why should applications of castor oil packs rival Alcoholics Anonymous in this particular event in time and space? Life offers us a multitude of unanswered questions, doesn't it?
