My Will: A Legacy To The
Healthy & The Sick - by
Sebastian
Kneipp It is a common
practice for everyone who has acquired something or effected anything
in his life time, to take steps for securing its continuance in the
future, and to make sure that it will fall into the hands of those who
will value it and make good use of it, and it is to ensure this that a
Man makes his Will. I have during the last few years written many books
on various subjects not for my own profit but for that of mankind,
especially for that portion of it afflicted with pain and wretchedness
of whatever sort. I have written them in the simplest possible language
so that everyone can understand and select from them that which is
helpful in his or her particular need. Above all I have, in these
books, given rules for people of every rank and condition, rules for
living, and hints how to help themselves in emergencies. My whole
effort has been to point out and explain what the Creator offers us in
Water and in Herbs. As in an Exhibition various objects are exposed to
view, so in these may be found many things valuable and serviceable in
life. The author covers the following subjects: Alcohol, Anemia,
Apoplexy, Asthma, Colds, Baldness, Cataract, Colic, Cold Feet, Dropsy,
Dysentery, Deafness, Ear Ache, Fever, Food, Goiter, Massage, Medicinal
Herbs, Tonsils, Varicose Veins, Urinary Difficulties, etc. [

Thus Shalt Thou Live - by Sebastian Kneipp - 1897. Found in this book are
hints and advises for the healthy and the sick on a simple and rational
mode of life and a natural method of cure. Various sufferings of mind
and body render the performance of man's earthly duties difficult and
onerous, for a 'heavy yoke lies on Adam's children from the day they
went forth from their mother's womb to the day they return to the
earth, the mother of all.' Reason teaches us that it was not always so,
for, by his immortal soul and his free will, man is an image of his
Almighty creator. At all times there have been men who made it the
object of their life to discover ways and means for the cure of
diseases. Many books give us useful information about the healing
properties of certain herbs and the wholesome effects of mineral
substances.
