March 31st, 2010Food-and-DrinkUsing computers for a long time and frequently suffering computer radiation can bring damage to the human body. The reason is that computer radiation can make the body generate peroxidatic reaction. Its damage to the skin is just like the experience of peeled apples, the surface of which will soon be oxidized after exposure to air. In order to fight against the computer radiation, we should pay more attention to the diet and take in more anti-radiation food.
Some red fruits like tomato, watermelon and pink grapefruit are our good choice. All of these fruits are rich in lycopene, which is a kind of vitamin that can resist oxidation. Among all fruits, tomato has the highest level of lycopene. Lycopene is the strongest carotenoid in terms of oxidation resistance and it has strong ability to remove free radicals. Besides, lycopene has the effects of anti-radiation, preventing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, enhancing immunity and delaying aging. And so far, we have not found any report about side effect caused by lycopene.
Beans, olive oil, sunflower oil, cabbage, mustard, cabbage, radish and other cruciferous vegetables are also wonderful anti-radiation food. Besides, we need eat more oranges, kiwi fruits and other fresh fruits. Beans, olive oil, sunflower oil and cruciferous vegetables are rich in vitamin E, while orange, kiwi fruit and other fresh fruit are rich in vitamin C. Both vitamin E and vitamin C belong to antioxidant vitamins, which have the antioxidation activity. And they can reduce the peroxidatic reaction caused by computer radiation. Fresh fruit and vegetables can also help prevent radiation. They can make the blood alkaline and dissolve toxins in the cells, so that toxins can be excreted with urine.
We should also eat some animal liver, chicken, egg yolk, broccoli, carrots, spinach and so on. These kinds of food are rich in vitamin A and?-carotene. They can not only promote the synthesis of rhodopsin, but also make eyes see things more clearly under dark light.
Green tea can reduce the radiation hazards, lipopolysaccharides contained by green tea can help resist radiation. Besides, green tea is rich in provitamin A, which can be absorbed by the body and quickly convert into vitamin A.

March 28th, 2010UncategorizedThere is a system used called Zone Feng Shui. There are nine steps involved in the system with the ninth step being involved with spirituality. This ninth step is often referred to as the Three Secrets. It is practiced more so in the BTB School than the Traditional Schools.
Traditional Feng Shui is by no means a religion. It is more of a science that helps us, through proper placement, to achieve good Chi and balance in our lives and to harmonize with nature. BTB, short for Black Sect Tantric Buddhist School, was founded in the United States in the mid 1980s by Professor Lin Yun. Professor Yun incorporates into his teachings many forms of philosophy and studies from many different schools of thought, including Buddhism and Confucianism as probably the most recognized.
The Three Secrets of BTB Feng Shui involve a spiritual blessing to enhance the effects desired through the art of placement. It is an optional step and allows those who want to bring their own sense and belief in spirituality into the picture.
The Three Secrets of BTB Feng Shui is also referred to as the Three Secrets Reinforcement. This involves
body, mind and speech in an attempt to improve the effects of Feng Shui in attempting to gain better personal and environmental Chi.The Body is the first step in this process. It uses the mundra which is a hand gesture used to remove obstacles that are hindering us from achieving our goals. Men will use their right hand and women their left when creating the mundra. You would take your hand and hold it straight out and flat. You then curl downwards the two middle fingers leaving the index and baby fingers still stretched out flat. You would then cover the fingernails of the two fingers curled downwards with the thumb. You then flick the two curled fingers so they are once again straight out and flat. You would repeat this gesture nine times. This gesture is considered warding off bad Chi.
The second step is that of the mind. It is the visualization of what you are looking to achieve from start to finish. You visualize your checking account getting larger and larger until you reach your goal. You visualize customers coming into your store in greater numbers, increasing daily. You try and get the image in your mind as to your goals.
The third of the Three Secrets of BTB Feng Shui is that of speech. It involves repeating nine times sacred words of your choice. The Mantra is often used but you can use any sacred words that are meaningful to you. Again, they would be repeated nine times.
The Mantra that many use is the words “Om Ma Ni Pad Me Hum” and is often referred to as the Six True Words or the Mantra of Compassion. It is pronounced “Om Mane Padme Hum”. The actual pronunciation is not as important as the purity of the heart and mind when chanting the words.
That concludes this short article on the Three Secrets of BTB Feng Shui.
Good health and enjoy Sheng Chi! (I will repeat that nine times)
