Tea and Wellness
Want to stay heart healthy? The Harvard Medical School conducted a study of 1,900 patients who had suffered heart attacks. The scientists came to the conclusion that the patients who were heavy tea drinkers, that is they drank at least19 cups of tea a week, were 44% less likely to die than patients who did not drink tea. And they concluded that even patients who were moderate tea drinkers lived longer than the non-tea drinkers. This group was 28% less likely to die for up to four years in spite of other medical and lifestyle factors. So make tea drinking a habit, and drink it throughout the day.
Preparing Your Tea
Want to know how to brew an absolutely perfect cup of tea? Give the ideal tea party? Or how to use teabags to get rid of the bags under your eyes? Or stop the itch from insect bites? We’ve got lots of fascinating and valuable information about how to use tea to enhance your looks, spruce up your home and your wardrobe, cook, and make your life better naturally. And you thought tea was just for drinking.
| Tea | Steep Time | Water Temp | | White tea | 7-10 min | pre-boiling | | Green tea | 3-5 min | pre-boiling | | Oolong tea | 7 min | Boiling | | Black tea | 5 min | Boiling | | Herbal tea | 5-8 min | Boiling |
Pre-boiling means, the point just when the water and pot begin to make sounds, at the very first sign of air bubbles forming. Boiling means water that is starting to dance, but not left on the fire beyond that point (oxygen loss is rapid rendering the water unsuitable).
Bringing People Together
A pot of tea brings people together. It makes people feel better. It can reduce tension at a business meeting and turn an ordinary gathering into a special event. It relaxes people and encourages real communication. There is nothing like a cup of tea for a heart-to-heart talk.
So why not give a tea a tea party once a month or even once a week and: - Catch up with old friends and to get to know new ones.
- Warm up a cold winter day with a cozy gathering around a table laden with a beautiful teapot, lovely cups, and pretty plates of cookies, pastries, or dainty sandwiches.
- Have a beat the summer heat party and serve a tall chilled pitcher of along with plates of fresh fruit and perhaps some cheese and crackers or finger sandwiches. It's the perfect antidote to heat and humidity.
- Plan your tea parties around a theme or special occasion.
- Make your tea party an occasion to plan charitable and community or religious organizational activities.
- Give tea parties to introduce a new neighbor or member of the community to friends.
- Turn a Tea Party into a really glamorous affair. Ask your friends to wear their prettiest outfits. It's fun to dress up, and how often do we really get the chance to do it?
- Try giving a real English tea party where you serve scones and other British goodies. Discuss an English book (Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austin would be perfect) or gossip about the Royal Family. Or talk about an English film or a film about England.
- Party al fresco. Give a summer tea party in the back yard. And like the garden parties offered in England by the Queen, everybody could wear an elegant hat.
- Use every holiday to give a tea party with special decorations and food.
Use your imagination and have fun. And remember, tea parties are a wonderful way to offer comfort, make friends feel treasured, and new acquaintances welcomed.
An afternoon or evening tea party is also a wonderful way to bring the family together. It's an opportunity for the parents and kids to take time out of their busy, separate lives and spend some quality time together really communicating. Mom and Dad and the older kids can enjoy one of our many tea blends while the little ones can have fun drinking milk or juice out of a teacup.
This can be a chance for the kids to tell you about their teachers, their friends, and all the stuff they just can't find the time to talk about as they're running from one activity to another. And Mom and Dad can share details about their lives and their work with the kids that there is never enough time in the day to discuss.
You can also use this time to have a family meeting to discuss projects and future vacations, assign chores and even air grievances and resolve differences.
And a mini-tea party with one of our soothing blends before bedtime with just you and yourspouse is a great way to unwind. It will give you the precious time you need to be alone together to really talk and to reconnect. And it will help you get a good nights sleep.
Sharing a pot of tea brings us closer. It makes us feel better. And when we take the time to drink it, it can revive our bodies and uplift our spirits.
