====== Tea Yoga 茶熏瑜伽 ======
茶熏瑜伽是中国传统茶熏疗法与印度瑜伽相结合的养生方法，通过茶气熏面，深度清洁体内毒素，净化身心，静心放松，再配合瑜伽导引伸展舒畅，提升心智，进入深层的冥想禅定境界。
Tea Yoga, consisting of tea facial steam and Yoga, is a way of mental and physical cultivation, for the inner peace and bodily health. It involves breathing concentration, meditation and physical exercises, and has deep roots in the philosophies and practices of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Taoism, Confucianism and Buddhism.
Technically, Tea Yoga starts from tea facial steam, with yoga afterwards. Tea steam opens the skin’s pores while deeply cleansing and rejuvenating the skin. With breathing concentration and meditation, it also helps to soothe, tranquilise and purify the mind. Then through exercise, breathing and meditation, yoga controls the body and mind to further harmonise the inner spirit with the environment, achieving enlightenment and deep tranquility.
===== Equipment of Tea Yoga =====
* A ceramic or china bowl, large enough to fit the practitioner's face in.
* A bowl of 25-cm diameter would be suitable for most people.
* A large towel, a bath towel would be suitable for this purpose.
* Some tea (such as oolong or black tea), according to the practitioner's preference.
===== Procedure of Tea Yoga =====
==== Steaming your face with hot tea ====
Regardless of the kind of skin you have, regular cleansing and steaming the face will help remove more impurities effectively. Steaming the face help to open the skin pores so that blemishes can be cleared.
=== Instructions ===
* Begin by cleansing the skin with a non-abrasive soap such as glycerin or a gentle chamomile soap that contains no fragrances that can irritate the skin.
* Boil the water and make tea in the large bowl. Place the bowl on a flat surface such as a table.
* Drape the large towel around your head to trap the steam that rises from the boiling water. Adjust the distance between the face and the water surface at your convenience. Steam will rise to the face.
* Keep your eyes and mouth closed.
* Steam skin for up to 15 to 20 minutes.
* While steaming the face, focus on your breath and meditate.
* Dry your face with a towel after steaming.
==== Practice Yoga ====
This bit I have no idea.
The above are the superficial part of Tea Yoga, which can easily be observed. The essence of Tea Yoga is however the appreciation and deep thought upon this, which is the spiritual part.
