Like many of us you are concerned about your health, nutrition, physical and spiritual well being. However, it can seem so daunting to keep up with it all. Sometimes we feel that trying to make healthier choices is just too much hard work. How do we find the time for relaxation or connecting with ourselves/loved ones? Everyone's talking about new fad ways to be healthy. How do we sort through it all?

Let's take a simple example of tea. So much research is going on about the health benefits of tea. Some people swear by green tea, while others say that white tea has even more anti-oxidants, so therefore it's better for your health. Well, the English have known for centuries that ANY tea makes everything better. All they need to know is that a good "cuppa" makes the world seem more manageable. Brits have been conditioned over years to find solace in tea. If one has broken up with a partner, had a bereavement, or even just a lousy day...putting the kettle on and offering that person a cup of tea is the very first thing a proper Brit does in triaging the crisis.

Here's the secret truth: ALL TEA IS GOOD FOR YOU. THEY ALL HAVE ANTIOXIDANTS AND HEALTH BENEFITS.

Keeping that secret in mind, Brits put the kettle on first, but it's only the first part of the secret. The second part of the secret is that it's the beginning of "the ritual." The ritual of preparing and serving tea is very calming and soothing. When one drinks tea, there is a cessation of other activity combined with the focus of brewing a proper cup of tea. By the time the tea is brewed, one's thoughts have already slowed down before s/he has even taken the first sip.
