TRANSFORMATIONAL TRAVEL - BALI- Video 3- Pathways to Health

PATHWAYS TO HEALTH

Before the Second World War, nearly all Balinese families were using traditional

medicine, for health maintenance, or for curing light illness through self-medication.

Mastering of the art and knowledge was in the hands of the mother or

Grandmother, who got the art and knowledge from their mothers orally, and by practicing it.

During my time in Bali, I found evidence of this fact still in the culture.

Jamu, which is predominantly herbal medicine, made from natural materials, such as parts of plants such as roots, leaves and bark, and fruit. Was being sold on the streets and in the Markets. These juice-like concoctions would help Good Immune System, Functioning Liver, Good Digestion, Mental Clarity, and Relief from Arthritis & Overall Wellness.

 There are many Herbal Garden Tours  and Nature Herb Walks that would give tourists an opportunity to learn more about the wide range of native plants & herbs used for healing. Nature was the Balinese’ medicine cabinet. 

I was so fortunate to have a unique experience while visiting a small village in the Bedugul area.  My tour guide was the village’s medicine man. During our treks, he was continually getting calls on his cell phone from villagers that were sick and needed counseling. He taught me a lot. Pointing out herbs and plants frequently during our treks through the Jungle. In this area of Bali, they did not have the luxury of going to the doctor, so they relied solely on Traditional and Natural Remedies. 

From broken bones to a colicky baby, Ram, my guide had a remedy.

BALINESE TREATS

Coffee

Bali coffee is one of the best coffee product you can drink in Bali, served hot with strong aroma. Bali coffee was planted since 19th century during the golden era of Klungkung kingdom. On that time, the land of Northern and Western part of this island was cultivated with many kind of agricultural products and coffee was one of it. The area of this plantation mainly covering 3 regencies in Bali, start from Tabanan, Singaraja and Bangli regency.

Kopi luwak (Indonesian [ˈkopi ˈlu.ak]), is coffee made from the beans of coffee berries which have been eaten by the Asian Palm Civet, then passed through its digestive tract. A civet eats the berries for their fleshy pulp. In its stomach, proteolytic enzymes seep into the beans, making shorter peptides and more free amino acids. Passing through a civet's intestines the beans are then defecated, having kept their shape. After gathering, thorough washing, sun drying, light roasting and brewing, these beans yield an aromatic coffee with much less bitterness, widely noted as the most expensive coffee in the world.

Okay, so I really thought they were kidding when I first heard about this coffee. Sounds kinda gross, right? Well, it actually tastes really good. It was rich and had essences of chocolate. I guess people eat many strange things- we can just ad this one to the list.

Tropical fruit in Bali is a feast in itself and is enough of a reason to visit Bali! The variety is numerous, and the taste and the aroma can definitely be a memorable experience.

Jack Fruit,Rambutan, Papaya, Starfruit, Pineapple, Pomelo, Durian, Sour Sop, and my favorite:

Salak: or snakeskin fruit due to the reddish-brown scaly skin is native fruit of Bali. It is the most popular fruit of the island among locals and tourists. The fruit is rather large, yellowish flesh and crunchy and mild tart and sweet flavors.

I definitely took advantage of the yummy offerings of Fruit. I had some interesting Shakes. I enjoyed a Jack Fruit & Durian Shake. And I had so much Coconut water , that I could probably have swam in it!! The colors were so vibrant, I often enjoyed just looking at the smorgasbord of fruit at the markets.
