"In a large pot, bring 2.8 litres (3 quarts) of water to a boil. Then add: 20 whole cloves 20 whole green cardamom pods (optional: gently crush them under a rolling pin or with a mortar and pestle to open them up) 20 whole black peppercorns 5 sticks of cinnamon Optional: a few slices of fresh ginger Continue boiling for 15-20 minutes, and then add: ¼ tsp of a mild black tea (Golden Assam is recommended) After another minute or two, add ½ pint of milk per pint of remaining liquid. The original recipe calls for cow’s milk but any type of milk is fine – cow, goat, almond, soy, hemp, etc. There is no need to measure the milk, just eyeball it. Optional: add honey or other sweetener to taste. Each of the ingredients in Yogi Tea has healing properties. The black pepper is a blood purifier and aids in digestion. Cardamom is good for the colon and can help relieve depression. Cloves strengthen the immune and nervous systems. Cinnamon is antibacterial, loaded with antioxidants and is good

Music is for each and every being. Music is within and without us all. Everyone can sing and everyone has his own unique voice. Incomparable that is. Don`t be a copy! There is no such thing as too soon or too late to start singing. Have courage and fulfil your dreams! Make sure, in the process, they are your own not someones else`s. You can sing whatever style/songs as long as it is truly what you want and love. Singing what is in fashion, for the market or for whatever other reasons is not a true expression of yourself, will not bring you happiness and is neither genuine art.  Singing brings peace, joy and relaxation. Whatever brings the opposites is not singing. Singing is ultimately a connection with your own soul and the source of existence. When you`ll be ready, everything else will be ready for you. Thus, do not struggle for perfection, become ready... to embrace it, on the way! ...in truth,  OdiliaCarmen

"- Unfortunately we are not yet at that level. It takes hard work to get there. And what would be the purpose of everything if not to help? Plants heal humans. Humans help and take care of the planet. We exchange ideas. We are connected. There is nothing unfortunate. We are heading in the "good" direction exactly because of everything that "seems" unfortunate around us. Because all that "looks" unfortunate makes us aware.

An awareness that, if we do not explore by free will, we are forced into by all that we experience. - N ot, for you not. What about those millions that did not even wake up?? Yes. But no matter that! Do not forget! You become, you experience, you create what you pay attention to. Forget what isn`t. Only look upon what can be. What can be will be! Those million
