Just as we take great care to grow and shape a bonsai, so we must do with the human body, mind and soul. These pages are meant to inspire thought, growth, consideration and respect for ourselves, so that we too may benefit from such tender care. This site was inspired one morning by the thought that human beings must take great care for personal growth and find our focus, without ‘pruning’ our minds & souls too much and too fast at the risk of stunting ourselves from our true potential.
Through the help of specialists, collaborators and user-generated content, the aim of TheHumanBonsai.com will be to spread awareness of self, as well as provide insight on how to nurture and heal the human spirit in all its forms, tangible and intangible.
If you have articles or links to sites of interest, we would welcome your submissions and ideas. Please ‘leaf’ us a message and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible.
Thanks for stopping by, and Happy Self-Pruning.

Taking a bath, either hot or cold, is a routine task for most of us. At times we do spend quite a while soaking ourselves in a hot tub enjoying the heat from the water that relaxes our aching muscles from a hard day’s work. But not too many people know that a hot bath or a cold bath has its own healing potential. The temperature of the water, the duration we spend in soaking ourselves in it and the adding of certain substances into the water can all contribute to the healing power of the bath. Thus it is important to understand it in order to get the most out of your bath.
Reiki therapy involves a lot of elements in just about every alternative healing practice. This is because it uses spiritual healing, meditation, aromatherapy, naturopathy and homeopathy among others to make the person or another feel better.
Reiki healing has a lot to do with harmony, music, sounds, and drums. Healing through Reiki requires rhythm. And that’s something that has to be achieved for healing to take effect.
