How to make Nicky's Chai Tea
I have reawakened a powerful blend of
ancient Ayurveda spices that I call RawCia Tea, Raw and Cia is what we often call my eldest daughter Lucia, her name means golden light, it reminds me of her, healing energy and light, golden for the turmeric. My Ancient tea spices range is Original Chai, Chocolate
Chip Chai and Turmeric Chai. I am so excited to share my healing teas with you and the world.
Thank you for purchasing my tea on
your last detox retreat, workshop or cooking demo.
Once you have purchased my new chai
teas you will be transformed to a whole new way of thinking and drinking tea to
heal. You become part of my tea family.
Here is everything you need to know
about how to make my tea and it's
amazing healing properties.
What do you need
Chai Tea
Tea Pot or a cup with tea strainer
Step 1.
1 dessert spoon of Chai Tea
Add to a tea pot or your special tea
cup with strainer
Step 2.
Brew for 3 -5 mins
The longer it's brewed the stronger
Step 3.
Once brewed, pour
1/2 cup of brewed chai and top with hot water
Optional add honey for a sweeter
taste
Note: If you are using the tea cup with strainer which are
fantastic for travelling, you may even see me travel with mine and bring on my retreats…
you can brew as normal, use strainer provided in the tea cup always to pour
into a cup.
Top with boiling water as needed.
Secret: Your Chai Tea will last 2-3 days in tea pot,
keep brewing the same batch, you can add a teaspoon more ingredients to make it
stronger.
I brew mine until the flavours become
weak.
The ingredients in your chai tea is
filled with expensive and quality spices
like star anise & cardamom and chunks of real cinnamon bark
and the amazing healing turmeric, so
don't throw the used tea brew out until it's brewed weak.

Turmeric has very powerful healing
properties.
My Story
My Story
I have used it for years. I can feel
my own healing in joints and even dental health.
This spice chai & turmeric has
been used in India for thousands of
years. It's ancient and a medicinal herb.
By drinking my tea it is healing your
body. If you have dental issues use it as a mouth wash. The amount of turmeric
used in my tea is strong enough to act as a anti bacterial mouth wash, and keep
gum disease at bay and any infections in the mouth.
The healing properties found in
Turmeric, known as Curcumin which is the principal curcuminoid that
demonstrates the pharmacological properties of turmeric.
In Indian and in my Yoga Teacher training we study Ayurveda a powerful blend of ancient Ayurveda spices
that we call medicinal spices & herbs for healing. All the spices that
perfectly make up my original chai tea blend provide healing. I named it
"original " because I wanted to keep it as an original recipe as
possible from where it originated India.
The two go together so well yoga and chai. The difference with mine is
it is made with intense flavor and real turmeric chunks and cinnamon bark.
My own personal story of discovering
chai tea has not been previously been spoken of publicly. I want to share this
with you.
When I was on my teacher training in
LA BIKRAM YOGA 2013… I can't even believe that is 5 years ago. I developed a
very bloated tummy, because of the high intense heated classes sometimes up to
50 degree and drinking up to 6-7 litres of water per day, my body and kidneys
were not coping, it was too much water for my little body to cope and the
problem occurred trying to replace the electrolytes. I feared I would
dehydrate. I drank loads of coconut water, lemon and salt water and water.
I was out of balance through the training with my tummy feeling bloated
and not hungry up until I reached out to my friend an Ayurveda Doctor Rama
Prasad who organized a Skype session,
this was the turning point for me, to discover what the ancients already new.
He told me to do a technique that is
too in depth to explain here which is calked Kunjal Kriya, but there is a
blog about my experience found at Nicky Arthur The Power of Living Raw if you
want to know more on this crazy but wonderful technique.
Rama recommended I drink chai tea and a lot of it. I remember thinking where am I going to find
Chai Tea at the Raddison Hotel, where we were staying for a long ten weeks away from family and friends. But
funny enough where I ordered my breakfast everyday in the restaurant they made a
natural and strong brew of chai tea, from a tea bag, yes in Los Angeles! I
could tell this was a very good tea blend.
In fact I was never to find that chai
tea taste again. When I returned to Australia I went on a Chai seeking journey.
That lives with me today. I travel a lot and it's very difficult to find a real
Authentic original spicy healing tea, that you know has the healing spices with
intense flavor, with all respect to the local cafes and places I travel, I
rarely find a good strong natural chai tea latte. There is one secret place I
go in Mosman and the lady knows exactly how I like it, she takes time to brew
it and makes it with love, there is a difference.
I found relief in my tummy
automatically. I was able to ease the bloating while finishing my training, and
as soon as the training was over and less time spent in the hot room, seemed
better but since the training I have continued to drink my chai tea and
recently the Turmeric Chai tea that has transformed my health even more.
Chai tea and Turmeric has been used
in Eastern medicine for thousands of years, this amazing synergy of spices
contain potent anti-inflammatory properties, that can assist with working as a
natural anti-depressant, aiding digestion and is packed with antioxidants.
My own personal experience with chai
tea and turmeric has rocked my world, that is why I am so passionate about
making and Sharing my teas.
There are endless health benefits.
Here is a just few go to name.
•
Turmeric Contains Bioactive Compounds
With Powerful Medicinal Properties.
•
Curcumin is a Natural
Anti-Inflammatory Compound
•
Turmeric Dramatically Increases The
Antioxidant Capacity of the Body - amazing!
•
Relieve inflammation, even my mum has received healing and awesome benefits in her body and joints.
•
Relieve joint pain associated with
mild osteoarthritis
•
Increase joint mobility and reduce
joint stiffness associated with mild osteoarthritis
•

A number of laboratory studies on
cancer cells have shown that curcumin does have anticancer effects. It seems to
be able to kill cancer cells and prevent more from growing. It has the best
effects on breast cancer, bowel cancer, stomach cancer and skin cancer cells
Lack of oral hygiene can make the
mouth susceptible to disorders or infections like gingivitis, dental cavities,
periodonitis, oral cysts, ulcers, oral cancer etc.
and as a preventative health
technique what gave you got to lose, but only gain more benefits with the healing amazing turmeric.
Turmeric’s role as an anti-cancer is
well known. It is no surprise it can help in oral cancer too. I hope you found
