Simple Chai recipe

I just got back from my one month Boracay Yoga Teacher Training and I must say that I miss the CHAI TEA (hot and cold!) They served it everyday in training. Thanks to Irene (my yoga tt classmate) she sent me her perfect chai recipe...enjoy!

half glass milk, half glass water (how milky you want it depends on you)
2 cardamom seeds
3-4 cut up sticks of cinnamon (not one full stick--that's pretty thick and depends on how cinnamon-y you like it to be)
1 dried ginger (or fresh--2 or 3 slices, again depends on how ginger-y you like it to be)
1 tablespoon black tea

Boil milk with cardamom, cinnamon and ginger. Once boiled, turn heat off and put in tea. Let tea sit for 1 or 2 minutes. Strain and serve.

You might have to experiment on the "perfect" taste for you in the beginning. I experimented twice before I got it "perfect" for me.

Have fun making your tea! =)

Jumping For Health

FINALLY...I bought my mini trampoline because I read about the health benefits of rebounding here.

Because I am trying everything to cure me from the shingles, I persuaded M to drive to Greenhills (where the nearest sport shop is) to buy me a red one which I love! I tried at it once when we got home and boy, do I feel better with some exercise back in my life! And its all part of my new years resolution :)

A Healing Peppermint Christmas

Do you feel Christmassy? To banish the scrooge in all of us, you may resort to INDIGObaby's Jar of Love Healing Gel. Made from Pure Peppermint Essential Oil, this little fella is sure to lift your spirits in trying times.

This comes in handy when my 1.7 year old son Santi has the cough/cold/fever/flu. I just rub on his chest, back and feet. It loosens the phlegm and helps him breathe better. Any parent knows how difficult it is to see your helpless child bawl through the night when the nose is clogged with icky snot :(

I love the minty smell and sensation too on my forehead whenever I dab --- this I do for jetlag and stress. To top it all, this is entirely made from 100% pure ingredients. No yucky harmful chemicals for you and baby.

Refrigerate for that extra cooling sensation.

Only P300 per jar available at indigomanila.multiply.com
