Cleanse
Get the Tiao He cleanse from Nature's Sunshine. It is a 15 day herbal program. It targets several levels of the body at once yet is gentel enough to not interfere with daily life.

Distinctiveness
I would have to agree with that. What I draw from this is what we have is a unique, rare and valuable thing. We had better treasure what we have. Preserve it as best we can and pass it on. Even the Chinese arts are being "disposed of" at an alarming rate. The younger Chinese have very litt...

High and Low
