Turmeric has been a fundamental part of Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of medicine, for over 4,000 years. Ayurvedic texts describe turmeric as a powerful herb with a range of healing properties. It is considered to have cleansing and purifying qualities, beneficial for the body and mind. Ayurveda suggests using turmeric in various formulations to balance doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha) and promote overall well-being.
In Hinduism, turmeric is associated with the goddess Lakshmi, who is the goddess of wealth and prosperity. It is considered auspicious and is offered to deities in temples. The bright yellow color of turmeric is symbolic of the sun and is associated with spiritual purity and auspiciousness.
Turmeric has also been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine, where it is believed to invigorate the blood, promote the movement of Qi (energy), and alleviate pain. While not as central to Chinese spiritual practices as in India, turmeric has been integrated into various medicinal formulas]]>Rhubarb originally stems from Asia, but was brought to Europe in the 1600s and America not long thereafter. The stalks are the only edible part of the rhubarb plant. These have a rich, tart flavor when cooked. The leaves of the rhubarb plant are toxic—they contain an irritant called oxalic acid
—so be sure that they are not ingested.
Excellent source of vitamin K, which is an essential vitamin for bone health and blood clotting. The vitamin A in rhubarb may also help to fight free radicals that cause skin damage and premature aging, keeping your skin looking healthy and youthful. It’s also high in antioxidants,
and many other important vitamins and minerals that provide a variety of health benefits.

Excellent source of fiber, which helps to lower cholesterol. Studies show that rhubarb helps lower your bad cholesterol levels as well as your total cholesterol. Lower cholesterol levels reduce your risk for heart disease and heart attack. The vitamin K in rhubarb may also aid in preventing the calcification of blood vessels. The antioxidants in the vegetable also provide anti-inflammatory effects, which can further help to protect your heart health. The fiber in rhubarb helps keep things moving through your digestive tract, preventing problems such as constipation. It also contains compounds called sennosides, which act as natural laxatives. The tannins in rhubarb also provide anti-diarrheal effects. Source: healthline.com

Spring, “enfin” ! Yes, it’s been a long winter for everyone and spring cleaning is all you need to uplift your moral. Time to roll up the sleeves and get busy. I love to address my spring cleaning with a positive mindset instead of approaching the irksome workload with a heavy and negative attitude. Turn a chore full of pain by just being on the bright side of things. How the heck do you do that? How you think will define your result !

Step 1: Play your favorite music
Step 2: Wear your most comfy clothes
Step 3: Stretch the whole body
Step 4: Do some sit-ups

Step 6: MYO - Make your own house cleaner?
Thirty years in just a few words. I share a part of me you probably know very little about- a personal journey so far that has been fascinating and unpredictable and I am grateful to be able to share these few words with you.
This decade has led me toward the realization of a life long dream of creating a new start-up. Luvmatrix (e-boutique) and Maik ai Tea (brand) was born.
My tea journey began when I was looking for something I could drink all the time that is actually healthy and as I get older, would actually benefit my body. Something that would help bring my energy and stamina back, so, I could accomplish all of my dreams. As I tried many products, nothing would do the trick until I discovered good quality tea* and the benefits of good quality tea on the body. Tea is such a simple and common drink, one that has been used for thousands of years. Prior to becoming mainstream, tea was used for medicinal purposes. Go figure, isn’t it going full circle?
Maik ai Tea was born out of passion. The idea was to create a product that would cleanse the body, energized it, and help it lose weight (if need be). Six months into the process the Maik ai Tea detox was formulated. When I started on this journey 6 months ago, it was all about the detox tea but when passion takes over there is no holding back. Following the creation of the detox tea, the Daily Dose Tea was created for daily hydration, taste and health benefits.
Maik ai tea is about taste, flavours, aromas, health benefits and the discovery of the way of tea, which is to bring peace and serenity into one’s life. Something that is needed more then ever before since we live in an era of chaos, fast pace and social media.
Make a tea daily, to optimize your health, get inspired, be empowered and dive deep into your passion all the while living in peace and serenity.
In conclusion, after discovering and experiencing life, bearing children, having a career, loving a husband, discovering art, and yoga, the common denominator to my life is tea. What I’ve learned along the process? It’s ok to have more than one career, more than one ambition, more than one husband (lol) as long as your passion is ignited.
Forty years in the making, the way of tea is the circumference of my life, coating it with love, peace serenity, positive mindset, meditative action and joy. It is Maik ai Tea’s life mission to help bring peace, serenity and passion in your life.
Tea is the common denominator to a happy, joyful and serene life!

]]>First let’s talk about the definition of, “BRAND”
I do not want reinvent the wheel, therefor, I am sharing a brand definition from a top marketer, Seth Godin. His version is, “A brand is the set of expectations, memories, stories and relationships that, taken together, account for a consumer’s decision to choose one product or service over another.
If the consumer (whether it’s a business, a buyer, a voter or a donor) doesn’t pay a premium, make a selection or spread the word, then no brand value exists for that consumer.”
That sums it all right? Right!
In conclusion, I highly recommend you seek the help of a professional in this field. The Internet offers a lot of free advice but if you are pushed toward the wrong direction if can be very costly. If you would like more information, please send me an email, it will be my pleasure to help or give you advise as to where to begin on your new journey.

]]>I couldn’t sleep for 2 years until I found my number 1 solution (see #1 below). I tried so many different products to help me out and nothing worked. Sleeping pills was not an option.

Now, I sleep better than ever before. I have more energy to exercise and I get everything done without exhausting myself.
