Throughout history, trees have been known for the
healing vibrations they produce.
Traditional Folk-lore tells us that, the older the tree, the stronger this healing energy appears to be, and so big old trees tend to be known as 'Healing Trees'.
All over the world there are myths
and legends about trees that can heal people; but the funny thing is, most people just
listen to the stories, but never bother to check things for themselves.
For instance; there are many people who suck these
stories in, like they were nectar, but don't do any practical research of their own.
They then write their own book telling of the marvellous properties of the 'Oak', not realising that there are many different types of Oak, some of which, are rather special and some of which are not.
Scientist wishing to check these marvellous claims for the Oak, usually rush out and critically examine the first Oak they come to.
If this Oak, just happens to be one of the special ones, then all is well and good; but if it isn't, then the claim, the book, and all the theory that goes with it, is thrown out as rubbish.
This in turn, gives the myths,
legends and all the passed down wisdom of the ages, a very bad press, resulting in a loss
of credibility.
In our tribe, we did things rather differently and slowly accumulated a fund of real
knowledge on the subject.
This LiveWood Site is our attempt to
share some of this knowledge with you.
