COLONICS
Colonics are used to flush the colon with water in order to clear out impacted food waste and debris. There are two main types of colonics—an open-ended type you control yourself and a closed-end type administered by a massage therapist.

The open-ended colonic process involves the insertion into the rectum of a thin-tipped hose, which is connected to a container filled with lukewarm water, which may include coffee. The water is then gravity fed through the tube into the colon where it is retained and is then combined with an abdominal massage before being evacuated.

The closed-end colonic device operated by a colon therapist who inserts a hose with a metal tip into the rectum which sends water into the colon under regulated pressure. Abdominal massage is then used and finally suction is applied to help to pull the evacuated debris out. Coffee is used in place of water in the final cleansing.

The process of a colonic is similar to a mouthwash, except that it happens in the colon. You wash the internal skin of the colon and also release any blockages. But whereas the closed-end type uses a machine to push water in and flush it back out, the open-ended type relies on gravity and the actual rectal muscles to eliminate the water solution and its accompanying debris

If you have never cleansed your colon or rectum, and have been building up toxins for years, you can imagine what you must have inside your colon. You need to cleanse this area of the body just as you do the other end of the alimentary canal (the throat, mouth and teeth). When you cleanse your colon your body will begin eliminating a lot of excess body fat and harmful acids.

แต่เมื่อได้มาฝึกเรียนวิชาพลังเพศหญิงเพื่อการรักษาโรคที่เต๋า การ์เด้น ก็ได้ใช้ความกล้าที่จะลองให้เขานวดกระษัยให้เพื่อที่จะให้เข้าใจการฝึกวิชานี้ให้ครบถ้วน การนวดกระษัยนี้ไม่ได้เป็นอย่างที่เคยนึกภาพไว้แม้แต่น้อย การนวดกระษัยหรือการนวดอวัยวะเพศนั้นจะคล้ายๆกับการนวดชิ เน ซัง (การนวดท้อง)ที่เป็นแบบย่อเล็กลงมา โดยนวดที่รอบๆอวัยวะเพศและในช่องคลอด พนักงานนวดจะหาก้อนหรือเส้นที่งอหรือพันกันและจะนวดให้คลายหายไป ไม่มีการกระทำไดๆที่เป็นเรื่องของทางเพศ หรือจะปลุกอารมณ์เพศแม้แต่น้อย คนที่ถูกนวดก็ไม่ใช่ว่าจะเคลิ้มสบาย ค่อนข้างที่จะเจ็บไม่ต่างจากตอนที่เรานวดชิ เน ซังครั้งแรก และเช่นเดียวกับการนวดชิ เน ซัง ถ้าเรานวดมากขึ้น จนสามารถแก้ปัญหาของการติดขัดของเส้นได้ เราจะไม่รู้สึกเจ็บและสบายขึ้น การนวดกระษัยนั้นก็มีหลักการเหมือนกับการนวดไทยหรือ การนวดเท้า แต่เป็นการนวดกระษัยนั้นเป็นการนวดที่อวัยวะเพศที่มีขนาดเล็กกว่า

ตอนนั้นก็เลยฉุกคิดได้ขึ้นมาว่าอวัยวะเพศของเรานั้นก็คืออวัยวะหนึ่งซึ่งก็มีความสัมพันธ์เชื่อมโยงกับอวัยวะอื่นๆ ตามหลักของแพทย์จีนนั้นอวัยวะใดอวัยวะหนึ่งของเราจะมีจุดที่สะท้อนไปถึงทุกอวัยวะของทั้งร่างกาย เหมือนกับการที่เรานวดเท้า หู หรือท้อง เราไม่ได้นวดเท้าเพื่อผ่อนคลายเท้าเท่านั้น แต่เรากดจุดต่างๆในฝ่าเท้าเพื่อให้สะท้อนไปรักษาทุกส่วนของร่างกาย หมอฝังเข็มบางคนอาจะฝังเข็มที่จุดที่หูเพื่อกระตุ้นการทำงานของกระเพาะ ช่วยความสามารถในการย่อยอาหารให้คนไข้การนวดอวัยวะเพศก็เช่นกัน สามารถที่จะแก้ปัญหาโดยตรงของระบบอวัยวะเพศเช่นการช้อนมดลูกที่ห้อยยานให้ขึ้นมาอยู่ในตำแหน่งปรกติ แต่ก็สามารถผ่อนคลายภาวะที่ตึงของอวัยวะอื่นของร่างกาย การนวดกระษัยนั้นได้ช่วยผ่อนคลายเส้นที่ตึงที่ขาได้ดีมาก ซี่งเป็นเหตุผลหนึ่งที่ตัวเองได้นวดกระษัยเป็นประจำ แต่สิ่งที่มหัศจรรย์ที่สุดอันหนึ่งของการนวดกระษัยคือผลที่ได้กับสมองของเรา อวัยวะเพศนั้นมีความสัมพันธ์โดยตรงกับสมองของเรา ถ้าได้มีการนวดและกระตุ้น ก็จะเป็นการกระตุ้นส่งพลังงานไปที่สมองทันที เมื่อนวดกระษัยเสร็จ เราก็จะเดินออกมาจากห้องนวดโดยความความรู้สึกสดใสโปร่งเบาสบายในหัว ความคิดคมขัด อารมณ์ดีอยู่ในสมดุลย์ แจ่มใสชัดเจน ไม่ได้มีอารมณ์มัวๆหมกมุ่นทางเพศเหมือนที่เราอาจจะนึกวาดภาพไว้

เต้านม รังไข่ มดลูก ช่องคลอดนั้นก็คืออวัยวะหนึ่งที่ต้องการการดูแล การเอาใจใส่ไม่ต่างจากอวัยวะอื่นๆ ผู้หญิงบางคนยอมเสียทั้งเวลาและเงินทองมากมายที่จะไปนวดหน้าเพื่อให้ตนเองนั้นดูสวย แต่ทำไมถึงไม่ลองนวดกระษัยให้อารมณ์ดีบ้าง บางทีเราต้องการแค่ความเข้าใจว่านวดกระษัยนั้นเพื่ออะไรและความกล้าอยากลองเพียงเล็กน้อยเท่านั้น

I bravely tried karsai massage for the first time while I was taking the Female Healing Course at Tao Garden to complete the whole understanding about female sexuality. Karsai was not at all what I had imagined. It was more like a tiny chi nei tsang massage around the genital and inside the vagina. The therapist looked for lumps or crooked sen or line of ligaments and tried to smooth them out. It was not at all ‘sexual’ and during the massage it was neither ‘orgasmic’ nor particularly pleasant either. Let’s say that it was as unpleasant as when we got our first chi nei tsang (massage of the abdomen) and it got more pleasant as we cleared out the problems. Karsai also resembled a miniature Thai massage or reflexology or foot massage in our sexual organs.

It has dawn on me that our sexual organs are just organs which are connected to other organs. According to Chinese medicine, one organ can reflex the rest of the organs in the body, like the feet, the ears and the abdomen. We don’t massage the feet just to relax them but to reflex the points on them to send energy to the entire body. Some acupuncture doctors use the points in the ear to help digestion, to stimulate the stomach. While massaging our sexual organs will directly improve and fix their functions, for example lifting the sagging uterus, massaging them can release tensions in the other areas in the body. Karsai has tremendously helped release the tight muscles in my legs which is mainly the reason I have been getting it. The most amazing thing about karsai massage is that since the sexual organs are connected directly to the brain, this massage gives us energy boost in the brain instantly. We come out the massage room full of bliss and a ‘miniature enlightenment’ with our thinking cleared and emotions balanced, not in a blurry sexual way as one would have imagined it.
Breasts, ovaries, uterus and vagina are just organs that need attention and to be taken care of. Women can spend a lot of money and time to get a facial to look good but why not a karsai massage to feel good? It is the matter of understanding and a little bit of courage.

Five Elements Nutrition Alphabetic Food List

In addition to your Astrology Chart and Present Health Condition, also the season must be taken into account when choosing foods according to the five Elements; while the characteristics of the water element (Cool and Wet) are prevalent in Winter, the opposite is true in summer, when the Characteristics of Fire (Hot and Dry) prevail. Thus if we lack the water element in our chart, we would want to increase the water Element in the Summer, when the Hot and Dry prevail, and warm the water Element in the Winter, when Cool and Wet prevail. Likewise, we would choose our Menu from those foods which are warming (mostly Yang), in order to stimulate the Element, and cooling Foods (mostly Yin) to Calm any Element.

From the Food Chart choose those foods that will stimulate the Earth Element, ie. warming foods, or Yang Foods.If you, however have a surplus of a certain element in your Five Element Nutrition Chart, you would want to balance the Earth Element and you would choose those foods which are cooling or Yin for that Element.

·     Your body is 70% water.
·     Water composes 70% of muscle, 25% of fats, 75% of your brain, and
over 80% of your blood.
·     Ionized Alkaline water regulates your body’s temperature, cushions and protects vital organs, aids in digestion, transports nutrients within each cell, and dispels acidic wastes.

Alkaline water served at Tao Garden

At Tao Garden we served drinking water that is Ionized alkaline has a positive effect on your whole system. Alkaline water helps to neutralize the acidic wastes from our daily diet. It also reduces the “oxidation reduction potential” (ORP) inside our body. The ORP of normal drinking water is usually around +300 to +400mv. After our treatment process the ORP is reduced to a negative level. Part of the alkalization process we use involves magnesium. Not only does magnesium raise the pH of the water, it also releases active hydrogen. Hydrogen binds with free radicals, neutralizing them, and helping the body to excrete them. The many options we have at Tao Garden for healthy drinking water reflect Master Chia’s never ending quest to create the healthiest environment possible. Our water is just one element which makes Tao Garden the ideal place for rejuvenation and self healing.

Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) codes

Be Convinced of vegetable in our farm  at Tao Garden Health Spa & Resort

All dishes are made from our vegetable which guarantee by mimistry of agriculture and cooperatives Department of Agriculture Thailand as our vegetable are safe and have good agriculture practices As following vegetable;

Corn, Chili, Egg Plant, Beet Root, Amaranth, Morning Glory, Tomato, Carrot, Welsh Onion, Lettuce, Yard long Been, Baby Corn, Cabbage, Broccoli, Broccoloni, Chinese White Cabbage and Kale

A multiplicity of Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) codes, standards and regulations have been developed in recent years by the food industry and producers organizations but also governments and NGOs, aiming to codify agricultural practices at farm level for a range of commodities. Their purpose varies from fulfilment of trade and government regulatory requirements (in particular with regard to food safety and quality), to more specific requirements of specialty or niche markets. The objective of these GAP codes, standards and regulations include, to a varying degree:

- ensuring safety and quality of produce in the food chain
- capturing new market advantages by modifying supply chain governance
- improving natural resources use, workers health and working conditions, and/or
- creating new market opportunities for farmers and exporters in developing countries.

Good Agricultural Practices are “practices that address environmental, economic and social sustainability for on-farm processes, and result in safe and quality food and non-food agricultural products”

These four ‘pillars’ of GAP (economic viability, environmental sustainability, social acceptability and food safety and quality) are included in most private and public sector standards, but the scope which they actually cover varies widely.

The concept of Good Agricultural Practices may serve as a reference tool for deciding, at each step in the production process, on practices and/or outcomes that are environmentally sustainable and socially acceptable. The implementation of GAP should therefore contribute to Sustainable Agriculture and Rural Development (SARD)
