You may have been taught that the mind, spirit and life are very difficult things to know about. This is the first principle of Scientology: It is possible to know about the mind, spirit and life. For thousands of years, Man has searched for the true "meaning of life". Your search for the answer ends here. WHAT IS THE MEANING OF LIFE? PRICE: $28.00 Book on Film 1 Blu-Ray & 1 DVD Church of Scientology Los Angeles 4810 W. Sunset Boulevard Los Angeles, CA 90027 • (323) 953-3206 losangeles-contact@scientology.net www.scientology-losangeles.org By L. Ron Hubbard GET THE BOOK-ON-FILM FIND OUT FOR YOURSELF. By L. Ron Hubbard 300 different specialty teas are also available online at www. chadotea.com. Tea by the Sea As befi ts the trendy Westside, Nirvana Tea and Herbs plays on a '70s rock anthem for its mantra: "Tea, Herbs and Rock n' Roll." Founder, general manager and acupuncturist Joe Recsnik has a master's degree in East Asian medicine and a strong belief in Eastern medicine for holistic health. He and tea entrepreneur Jacob Horn wanted to create an environment that would draw people to the world of tea and herbal healing. "Tea drinking restores balance to the body," Recsnik believes. Conceived as a "rock 'n roll health experience" where lo- cal musicians can perform and lecturers can educate on nat- ural Chinese medicine and the role of tea in healing, Nirvana is billed as a place where people come for the tea and the music, but "stay for their health." Nirvana offers green, black, white, oolong and herbal blend teas, as well as natural health remedies and pu'erh, a fermented Chinese tea also reputed to be a good hangover cure. All are available online at www. nirvanateaandherbs.com/ Groundwork may be recognized more for coffee than tea, but their eight locations (four on the Westside) are notable for selling exclusively organic and Fair Trade teas, so it's com- forting to know their vendors are sharing in the tea's benefi ts. Groundwork also works hard to benefi t our L.A. community, participating in hundreds of local events and helping support KCRW public radio. Check out their tea brewing secrets at www.groundworkcoffee.com. With such a wide range of healthy and delicious tea purvey- ors in the Southland, Angelenos have plenty of possibilities to discover whether Lu Yu was right. Many of tea's health benefi ts have been confi rmed by scientifi c research, but whether or not tea can inspire universal unity, it can bring more than a spot of pleasure to your day. december/january 2014-'15 19
