By Manjit Handa, PhD Ingredients For two cups: One and half cup water, two tea spoonfuls tea leaves (loose), a quarter cup milk, half an inch fresh ginger root, half tea spoon fennel seeds, two small cardamoms (coarsely ground), half an inch cinnamon stick, sugar to taste.
Method
In a pan mix all the ingredients except milk and tea leaves and place it on the stove. When the water comes to a boil, simmer it down for a couple of minutes, and then add tea leaves. Brew for a few seconds and add milk. When it comes to a boil, strain and transfer into tea cups. This tea is particularly beneficial and soothing, when down with flu, cough and cold. Enjoy the cup!

Harnessing Mindfulness Good Morning Parmjit I apologize for taking so long in contacting you. I wanted to let you know that the evaluations sheets we handed out after you did the session for our Divisional Day (way back in October) were all excellent. Every single staff person who attended your session was very pleased with it. They all found it very relaxing and said that they would enjoy a further session and recommend you to other departments who were having a department day similar to the one you presented your session at.
Also, I should mention that you may in the very near future hear from one of my co-workers asking you to do a session for our individual team. She is working on the logistics with our manager to see what we can do about having you come to one of our meetings.
Once again, I want to thank you for the wonderful session you did for us and wish you the best in 2009.
