[post_content] => Years ago, I read a book on the theory of homeopathic medicine that changed the way I thought about health and inspired me to go into medicine. One of the most interesting concepts regarded a hierarchy of systems and layers within human beings. According to the Greek teacher and author, George Vithoulkas, the human organism can be understood in three layers: Mind, Emotion, and Body.
The deepest and most vital is the mind layer, through which we understand life and the world, and have the means to process stimuli and thoughts and to connect to others. The next layer out is the emotion layer, through which we experience feelings, such as hope, happiness, fascination, inspiration, and also sadness, frustration, and anger. Finally, the outermost layer is the physical layer, which includes our muscles, bones, blood vessels, skin, and internal organs.
When there is some sort of disorder, Vithoulkas said, the human organism will do its best to express this imbalance in a way that impacts us as little as possible. If the symptom shows up on the mind layer, the best case scenario would be, say, mild forgetfulness or distraction. Worse might be something like difficulty with language, or misunderstanding basic social cues, and the worst would be total confusion or even loss of consciousness. Since the mind is critical to grasping meaning, core mental function represents the highest level on the most core layer of the self. We sometimes refer to the lack of such function as a “vegetative state,” and most of us would want the plug pulled if we became this way.
If the symptom manifests on the emotional layer, at best, maybe we would feel just a bit irritable or uneasy. At a more critical level, perhaps we would develop a tendency to get angry about all sorts of minor things, or we would cry at the drop of a hat. At the highest level on the emotional layer, we could be disabled by crippling depression, total numbness, or relentless fear.
If the symptom is expressed on the body layer, the worst would be a disease of organs we have only one of – such as the brain, heart, and liver. Disease of a single kidney or lung wouldn’t be quite as bad, since we have another. Issues with more superficial tissues, like skeletal muscles, are generally fairly minor. And the least critical layer to the overall function of the organism is considered be the skin. So, Vithoulkas wrote, if the organism is healthy enough, if will manifest a problem as a skin rash, since this would spare the mind, the emotional body, and all of the critical physical structures and processes. Our skin is the outermost layer, the farthest-removed from our core structures and systems.
Vithoulkas explained that in the healing process, the expression of an imbalance moves to a less critical level and/or a more superficial layer of the organism. If we’re lucky enough to have a skin problem, we should understand this as a good thing, and avoid doing anything to
suppress its expression, because the only possible result would be expression on a deeper layer and/or a more critical level. Thus, if you suppress a skin rash and get cranky or distracted, you’ve driven it inward.
This was especially interesting to me when I first read about it, because I had grown up with eczema – an itchy red rash on my elbows and knees – and from the age of 10, I had been using a suppressive therapy to treat it: corticosteroids. Corticosteroids are drugs that mimic the anti-inflammatory hormone cortisol that is normally produced by our adrenal glands. The most popular steroid for skin rashes is hydrocortisone. The ones I was using were much stronger.
So, if you have a chronic skin issue, I encourage you to approach it as
holistically as possible – that is, emphasizing your overall health and addressing the internal mechanisms that may be contributing, rather than treating the skin as disconnected from the rest of oneself. Here are some general first steps worth taking:
- Hydrate. Skin suffers from dehydration. Water is essential for optimal clearance of toxins and distribution of nutrients. Divide the number of pounds you weigh in half, and drink at least this many ounces of water per day – ideally evenly over the course of the day. More water should be the first and most basic intervention for chronic skin problems.
- Cut Back on Sugar. Sugar suppresses the immune system, impairing control of skin disorders with a bacterial and fungal component. Second, it feeds simple microorganisms, especially fungus (this includes yeasts), often making them worse. Third, it promotes inflammation, exacerbating skin problems with an inflammatory component (anything red and itchy).
- Each Plenty of Vegetables. For several reasons, eating more veggies, cooked cleanly, can help. First, they contain a wide range of nutrients, many of which are anti-inflammatory. Second, they contain fiber, which can help bind up and remove toxins from the gut, which may be a contributing factor in certain skin rashes.
- Take Probiotics and/or Eat Cultured Foods. The lining of the gut has a close relationship with the skin and our beneficial gut bacteria or “flora” play an important role in fortifying this membrane. They also help control populations of harmful microbes that may excrete toxins into the gut. If the intestinal lining is inflamed, it can lose its structural integrity, leaking intestinal contents – including the “endotoxins” released by bacteria and fungi – directly into the bloodstream, where they should never be.
- Try an Anti-Inflammatory Diet. Reduce inflammation throughout your body by limiting consumption of: fast food, processed food, flour (bread, pasta, crackers, etc.) and refined grains, sugars (agave, honey, corn syrup, etc.), refined cooking oils, red meat (less of a concern if you’re getting high quality, grass fed, hormone free meat), and regular quality dairy products (less of a concern if you’re getting high quality, hormone free, cultured dairy products from grass fed animals). Meanwhile, eat plenty of vegetables (especially dark leafy greens), fruits (especially berries), herbs and spices (like ginger, garlic, turmeric, onions, rosemary, and oregano), beans, and healthy fats (coconut, flax seed, walnuts, avocados, chia seeds, hemp seeds, oily fish, etc.). Check out one of the many books on this subject for more information.
Following these strategies will benefit you even if you don’t notice an improvement in your skin. In coming articles, I’ll give you more specific strategies for alleviating skin problems and promoting beautiful skin.
Be well,
Dr. Peter Borten

आयुर्वेद
The doctor of the future will give no medication, but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, diet and in the cause and prevention of disease. ~Thomas Edison
Ayurveda is a system of natural healing that has been evolving for over 5,000 years. It has a rich history that has influenced Early Greek, Western, and Traditional Chinese Medicine, and in a world dominated by Western convention, Ayurveda provides us with something more than a system of solely treating symptoms and illness. Ayurveda not only translates to “science of life,” but is a body of ancient knowledge finely crafted to keep one’s mind, body, and spirit vital, healthy, and balanced in the midst of our environment by analyzing the integration of one’s daily life routines, seasons, diet, and behavioral characteristics.
We are a part of nature.
In Ayurveda there are three fundamental forces (or doshas) that regulate our internal and external environments: in Sanskrit they are Vata (wind), Pitta (fire), and Kapha (earth). Every person has a unique ratio of these energies that dictate and shape our health and behavioral nature.
For instance, those with a dominant Vata dosha tend to be slender, energetic, and creative. Those with a predominant Pitta nature are intellectually sharp, determined, and have a zest for experiencing life. While Kapha personalities are nurturing, analytical, and carefree. Now, you may be thinking to yourself that you have many of the characteristics from each of these constitutions or doshas, but after a thorough constitutional analysis most people have only one (and occasionally two) dominate doshas.
So great, the balanced descriptions of these doshas sound wonderful, and if balanced sound like we could all live happily ever after! However, the goal of Ayurveda is to identify, treat, and sustain the imbalanced expression of these constitutions via a holistic intervention of diet, Abhyanga massage, herbs, aromatherapy, music, yoga, breathing, and meditation.
When Isaac Newton was laying down the foundations for classical mechanics and stated, “to every action there is always opposed an equal reaction” he was really borrowing from the ancient Ayurvedic principles of balance and imbalance.
For each element, there is a balanced and imbalanced expression.
When Vata is in flux, a person is likely to experience nervous system imbalances characterized by anxiety, trouble sleeping, dry skin, constipation, and difficulty focusing. Pitta imbalances are described by compulsive behavior, inflammation, irritable bowel syndrome, and digestive complications. While Kapha instability is noted by weight gain, congestion, and lethargy.
By utilizing the principles of Ayurveda and becoming educated about your particular dosha, you can begin to identify and make the most nourishing choices for your life.
At The Dragontree, our approach to Ayurvedic health fuses the ancient knowledge of Ayurveda with a current understanding of holistic health in order to pave the way for transformative wellbeing and healing to take place.
For instance, aside from full body Ayurvedic treatments and counseling, we offer incredibly powerful treatments like Ayurvedic therapeutic foot baths and scalp massages which incorporate the practice of oil pulling. Typically oil pulling has been used to treat systemic diseases like diabetes mellitus and oral plaque, but recent studies have shown this practice also stimulates vital nerve centers throughout the body, improves blood and cerebral spinal fluid flow around the brain, which in turn improves lymphatic drainage from the head and neck, and increases tissue oxygen uptake.
I will admit, while there are very few acknowledged clinical studies of Ayurveda’s efficacy, it’s worth noting that there are now trials being conducted to determine Ayurveda’s ability to prevent, treat, and cure disease. A few noteworthy current clinical trials surrounding the use of Ayurvedic herbs have shown evidence that Salvia officinalis (Common Sage) may improve symptoms in Alzheimer’s patients; Neem has been shown to have effective pharmacological characteristics; and the use of Turmeric and Cumin have displayed potency in preventing cancer in vitro, as well as alleviating digestive disorders and arthritis. There was also a rheumatoid arthritis clinical trial, funded by the National Institute of Health, back in 2011 that compared the effectiveness of the conventional drug, methotrexate, to that of an Ayurvedic treatment consisting of 40 herbal compounds and found the Ayurvedic treatment to be similar, if not more effective, than the popular conventional drug treatment.
So, with all of this in mind, try something new. Let us determine your dosha and potential imbalances so that we can begin to integrate and increase balance and vibrancy into your life!

I’m a big proponent of creative expression. Even if your life’s work centers around buying and selling, interpreting, communicating, or destroying, I think it’s worthwhile to make time for creating. Create music, or art, or gardens, or recipes, or whatever feels good. There’s something about tapping into our source of creative inspiration that is good for us in a way that’s different from other activities.
I consider myself lucky to have so many opportunities to get creative in my work. Along with the collection of tinctures, liniments, creams, and patches I created for The Dragontree, Briana and I have developed some really cool body scrubs, and we recently decide to get creative and develop three new scrubs to promote radiant skin.
This process always begins in the kitchen with dozens of bags of raw herbs, salts, sugar crystals, seeds, oils, and bottles of aromatic plant extracts. It’s messy, it smells wonderful, it takes a lot of trial and error, and above all, it’s fun.
First, we wanted to make a scrub that utilized activated charcoal. Activated charcoal is fascinating stuff. When you look at it under a microscope, there are so many minuscule nooks and crannies all over each particle that it has a tremendous surface area. A teaspoon of activated charcoal has the surface area of about half a football field! And all this surface area amount to many binding sites for whatever gunk it comes into contact with – including stinky odors and toxins. Drinking a slurry of activated charcoal in water is a first intervention for many kinds of poisoning, and it’s often taken in capsules for intestinal gas. Once in the Sky Mall catalog, I saw a comforter that was filled with activated charcoal for the purpose of preserving matrimonial harmony when one member of the couple has bad gas.
We combined the charcoal with raw sugar crystals for exfoliating power; coconut oil for a thicker consistency, deep moisturizing, and some antimicrobial activity; vitamin E as an antioxidant and skin conditioner; and our Transcend essential oil blend of amber, vetiver, ginger, and other oils. At first we used way too much charcoal and our skin was stained black. After adjusting proportions, we arrived at a great new blend (that won’t stain your skin).
Next, we wanted to make a scrub incorporating clay and honey. Clay draws toxins from the skin. When it’s hydrated, it becomes like a highly porous sponge. Clay poultices have a long history of topical use for treating acne, boils, venomous bites and stings, as well as certain itchy rashes. In this scrub, the clay particles are so minuscule that they act kind of like the absolute finest grade sandpaper, to “polish” the skin a bit. We decided the clay alone wasn’t scrubby enough, though, so we added some fine sea salt as well, for a combination of “fine grit” and “ultra fine grit” polishing.
The honey was included as a nice soothing agent to promote skin healing and enhance skin moisture (as a “humectant”). We again utilized coconut oil as a thick, moist base and vitamin E as an antioxidant and skin supporter. Due to the finer nature of these scrub ingredients, we decided this blend would be well suited to our Peace essential oil blend, which contains rose, chamomile, sweet orange, and other bright, calming oils.
Third, we wanted to craft a scrub with mother of pearl and pumice powder, since this combination has long been a favorite at our spas. Pearls and mother of pearl are made of a substance called nacre, composed of a calcium rich crystal known as aragonite. This substance is legendary in Asian skin care for smoothing skin and clearing blemishes. Almost as fine as the clay in the previous scrub, mother of pearl powder acts as a finishing “polish” in this exfoliant.
For additional grit to clear dead skin, we used pumice powder that’s just a bit coarser than the pearl. Pumice is a pitted volcanic glass which is widely used as an abrasive for smoothing the skin. Finally, we wanted a third grade of grit, coarser still, but gentle, so we added sea salt. The nice thing about sea salt crystals for exfoliation is that when combined with water in a shower or bath, the water takes off any sharp edges so it’s not too rough. Along with coconut oil and vitamin E, we added our Relax essential oil blend to this scrub, which features, lavender, lime, and ylang ylang. Ylang ylang (pronounced “EE-lahng EE-lahng”) is a delicate flower oil with relaxing properties. In Indonesia, it’s sprinkled on the bed of new married couples.
After lots of experimentation we had our formulatrix, Meredith, make numerous batches and tinker with proportions, and the result was three great new scrubs. We’re proud of them. And you’ll be relieved to know that we’ve been bathing more than ever. If you or a friend are in need of a subtle incentive to get cleaner, smoother, and brighter skin, please give them a try and share your feedback with us.
Be well,
Dr. Peter Borten
