Here's To Your Health
I love tea. Being a southerner makes this fact no big surprise. I’ve often told people that if I’m ever cut I’ll very likely bleed sweet tea. My tea palate has grown exponentially from the southern sweet standard. Now my tea chest runneth over. Tea has always been a great source of comfort and relaxation for me. Sitting in a sunny spot with a hot cuppa soothes my soul. Actually, that’s not all that tea soothes. Tea has been consumed as a healing elixir for thousands of years. Here are ten health benefits of drinking tea.

The Covid-19 Is Confining Italian People to Their Houses
These days are tough for me and my country. Personally, I feel a bit worn out. Maybe, for my two surgeries and the blood transfusion I had last January; maybe, because after that, I couldn’t do actually anything at all for a month because the surgeon ordered it; maybe, because my area, the notorious Veneto, got under the attack of the Covid-19 and we had to quickly adapt to new rules; or maybe, because my beloved dog, Elmo, my truest friend, passed away suddenly last 4th March.

Nature Connection as Medicine
Environmental discourse refers to the framework of ideas, concepts, language, and practices that our society relies on to relate to the world around us. For centuries human beings have held an environmental discourse that encourages division from our environment. We have validated not only a division from the natural world, but a disconnect from our relationship to place within our man-made environment, and our relationships with each other. Through a discourse of based in capitalism and economic growth we have validated practices that place marginalized communities into toxic environments, while offering respite to the more affluent. We have chosen to view the land as a resource rather than a partner, an obstacle rather than a resting place, and a fearsome wilderness rather than the source of all creation. Through generations of discourse manipulated for the benefit technological growth, we have validated a lifestyle and identity separate from nature, and have chosen to take advantage of both the land and other human beings. Our lack of connection to place within ourselves, our communities, and the natural world is perhaps one of the greatest threats to future generations.
