As we dive into the New Year many of you may have made a resolution to increase your inner awareness through meditation.   Perhaps you aim to lay off the coffee and drink more tea in 2012.  So, why not accomplish both by fusing the two together to make the perfect friendship? After all, a component in tea, L-Theanine, promotes a relaxed alertness, which is essential to a fruitful meditation session.

Buddhist Monks are known to drink a cup of tea during long meditations to stay focused yet calm, because L-Theanine simultaneously eases the mind and boosts concentration.  Meditation is about living in the present moment.  By preparing a cup of tea thoughtfully, you can truly meditate in this act alone.  Sipping tea and embracing the moment is one of the best ways to reconnect with your mind, body, and soul.   Through meditation, you can also connect with your energy centers, also known as the Seven Chakras.

Deepak Chopra, an internationally celebrated expert on mind-body wellness, has teamed up with Teatulia Organic Teas to bring Leela, the journey of mind and body, to your home through Kinect for Xbox 360 and Wii.  Deepak Chopra’s “Leela Meditative Experience” aims to help people embark on a path of greater well being by connecting to their own Seven Chakras.

Each Chakra relates to a different part of our body and mind: The Root Chakra, Sacral Chakra, Solar Plexus Chakra, Heart Chakra, Throat Chakra, Third Eye Chakra, and Crown Chakra.  With the help of Leela, you can learn how to engage each Chakra through various moments that stimulate mind and body.  To experience the Leela journey yourself, grab a cup of Teatulia tea and visit http://www.deepakchopraleela.com/.
