Time-tested traditional Mayan healing tours offered in Belize.
The verdant canopy of Belize's ancient rainforest provides shelter for the delicate herbal pharmacy living within it.
Visitors can now learn of and experience traditional Mayan cures and restoratives. While strolling through the rainforest learning about the healing properties of the indigenous plant life from Miss Aurora, they are also offered a rare perspective, and possibly even a life altering opportunity.
With the use of herbs, roots and extracts culled from the plants, these healing alternatives have helped to alleviate and even cure such medical conditions as heart ailments, leukemia, Hodgkin's disease and other cancers.
Located near the entrance to the Cockscomb Basin Jaguar Preserve, the Mayan Medicinal Trail is a pathway that has various medicinal plants growing along it, none of which were planted or transplanted by man. Miss Aurora runs the Cockscomb Basin Healing Center, Nuuk Che'il, and is doing what she can to preserve and bring back the Mayan culture.
It is said that time heals all wounds, and where Mayan civilization is concerned there is a connection, the classic Mayan civilization was proficient in medicine and healing arts. They even invented the calendars we use today.
With the present Mayan calendar ending in the year 2012, some worldwide interest in their culture has been aroused. As we wait to see what changes this ending will bring about, this is a very sought after tour that includes the chance to consult privately with a traditional Mayan medical practitioner.
