There are over a couple hundred varieties of tea in China and there are many ways to classify them: by locality, by harvest season, by processing method, and by the form of the finished product. The varying characteristics of tea –color, aroma, taste, and form –are largely the result of enzymatic oxidation. This process is traditionally called “fermentation,” even though it is not actually caused by yeast or other organisms.

Chi and the Higgs Boson-God Particle
On July 4th, while America celebrated their national Independence Day, the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) physicists celebrated the discovery of a new particle, Higgs boson, also known as the God particle; the long sought elementary particle that gives mass to the universe, the possible missing piece of the Standard Model of physics.
CERN physicists hailed this discovery as the biggest advance in knowledge about the cosmos of over 30 years. From the point of view of future physics, this may be the end of an era, yet this historic milestone may be just the beginning of future discovery.
More on Fasting
On my birthday, I began my routine fasting, following the method I posted on my previous blog “The Secret of Successful Fasting”. After a couple days, I did not have any hungry feeling what-so-ever. However, eating is an important part of living. Without food you are missing a lot of fun in life. Though not hungry, I felt bored. So, I decided to ask for help. Right before I slept, I lay in bed and talked to my body: “fasting should not be boring, please help”. And magically, the following day I felt happy and lively, the boredom and any desire for food had simply gone. I was able do my writing throughout most of the whole day as well as fit in a one and half hour walk.
If we see a human being as a Taiji, based on the holographic theory, the external features, internal organs, and single cells are the same Taiji but are on different levels. From a Taoist perspective, by communicating to micro levels; there is a more intimate connection. In mobilizing the support of the WHOLE body, the resonance brings forth empowerment to manifest what you are asking for.
Try to talk to your body on all levels. You might be surprised to find out that indeed, it listens and works.
