Three Beginner Meditation Mistakes to Avoid
Richard Berrebbi serves as the owner of BD Resources, LLC, a development company bringing traditional and alternative medicines and technologies to other businesses. In Rich Berrebbi’s free time, he enjoys meditating.
Meditation offers numerous physical and mental health benefits such as reducing stress and anxiety, while also helping to decrease blood pressure. If you want to start meditating, the following are three mistakes you should avoid if you want to make the most of your meditation:
1. Trying to Teach Yourself - While practicing on your own is perfectly fine, having somebody teach you the ins and outs of meditation can do wonders for beginners. As a newcomer, you are bound to be rough around the edges and have certain hurdles to overcome. An instructor can quickly spot those issues and teach you how to to adapt to or get past them.
2. Failing to Prepare - Instead of jumping right into your meditation, take a few minutes to relax, calm down, and mentally prepare. Affirm to yourself that your goal now is to focus. This pre-meditation preparation can help you go much deeper and have a more fulfilling experience.
3. Letting Distractions Win - You will get distracted when meditating, everyone does from time to time. As a beginner, it will happen more frequently than it would for those who have been practicing for years. Instead of beating yourself up for getting distracted, congratulate yourself for catching it and gently bring yourself back into the moment.

Voyager 1 and 2 Turn 40
Richard Berrebbi works as a partner at American Healing Technologies, Inc., a B2B traditional Chinese medicine importer and distributor. There, he leverages his international partnerships to source the highest quality Chinese herbs. Outside of Rich Berrebbi’s professional life, he has a keen interest in astronomy.
On September 5th, the Voyager 1 spacecraft turned 40 years old, having launched on the same date in 1977, just weeks after the launch of the Voyager 2 craft. The Voyager 1 craft is currently the farthest human spacecraft from earth. As of September 1st, it was a staggering 12.97 billion miles away, over 139 times farther than the distance between the Earth and the sun.
Back in 2012, Voyager 1 became the first human spacecraft to leave our galaxy and enter interstellar space. Voyager 2 is expected to follow suit within the next few years. While Voyager 1 feeds NASA never-before-seen data regarding the effects of solar wind far from Earth, Voyager 2 is busy learning about the conditions on the edge of the solar system.
According to Ed Stone, a Voyager scientist who has been working on the project since before either craft launched, says the both Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 still roughly 10 years of power left in them before the instruments become useless. Provided they do not collide with other objects, the two craft will continue flying after losing power, traveling once around the Milky Way galaxy every 225 million years.

The Mysteries of Dark Matter and Dark Energy
Since 2001, business developer Richard Berrebbi has imported Chinese medicinal herbs, building a network of over 100 sales professionals as a partner in American Healing Technologies. Richard Berrebbi has also provided venture capital for companies that focus on alternative and traditional medicine. In his spare time, Rich Berrebbi maintains an abiding interest in astronomy.
To their puzzlement, scientists have found that visible matter (planets, stars, and galaxies) accounts for only 5 percent of the mass of the universe. What makes up the other 95 percent? Researchers are only beginning to understand.
An invisible substance called dark matter is thought to compose 20 percent of the universe. So far, dark matter has remained undetectable, but scientists infer its existence from the effects of its gravity.
According to traditional astronomy, stars at the edge of galaxies should move slower than those at the center. But they don’t. Regardless of galactic location, stars orbit at about the same speed. Gravity from an unseen source must be acting on the outer stars, slowing them down. Scientists labeled this source dark matter. Possible explanations for dark matter range from exotic particles that don’t affect ordinary light and matter to differing forms and intensities of gravity itself.
The other 75 percent of the universe, it is theorized, is composed of something called dark energy. Physicists had previously supposed the attraction of gravity slowed the expansion of the universe. But in the 1990s, they discovered that it was expanding at an ever-faster rate. So far, no one can adequately explain dark energy, although some scientists postulate that it is a fundamental force called quintessence. Still, no one yet knows why it exists.

Understanding Traditional Chinese Medicine
Since receiving his MBA from New York University in 1990, Richard (Rich) Berrebbi has had a long career in business, holding positions at Zepter International, JPM Chase, and others. Today, Richard Berrebbi combines his interest in Chinese medicine with his business acumen in his role as partner at American Healing Technologies, Inc. (AHT).
AHT markets and distributes herbal formulations used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), but the company is also committed to fostering a deeper understanding of Chinese medicine in American culture. Their products take approaches from TCM and apply them to conditions common in the present-day United States.
AHT’s tea selection is an example of this, with a formulation for healthy digestion that can be a helpful aid for weight loss. A red tea formulation containing ingredients such as tangerine peel, mint, senna leaf, and hawthorne berry, the tea is based on an ancient formula. In TCM, digestion is considered an integral part of healthy weight loss, and the tea is designed to help promote just that.

Qi and the Human Body
Richard Berrebbi is the owner of BD Resources, LLC, and a partner at American Healing Technologies, Inc., roles for nearly two decades. Away from work, Richard “Rich” Berrebbi maintains a strong interest in the concept of Qi.
Qi took root in ancient China as a key component, if not the very basis, of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). While Western doctors view the body as a physical structure comprised of many unique, complex components, TCM practitioners considers the body a unified entity that is inherently interconnected. TCM practitioners do, however, distinguish between parts of the body that are more material in their construction and those that are energy-based. This is where the concept of Qi becomes important.
Qi, loosely translated as vital energy or life force, comprises the entirety of the universe. Any physical change in the world is a result of a change or redirection of Qi. In fact, the Chinese character used to signify Qi is the same symbol used for air and gas, signifying its omnipresence and supreme importance.
The human body is no different in regards to its dependence on properly flowing Qi. Overall physical health, as well as the functioning of individual organs and bodily systems, is a reflection of good Qi, while injuries and illnesses are a sign of negative Qi, or a blockage in the ideal flow of qi. The concept of Qi in the human body is not limited to sickness and wellness. In fact, Qi affects natural human growth, homeostasis, the immune system, food and liquid processing, and much more.

Richard Berrebbi additionally leads American Healing Technologies, Inc., which has a strong reputation in sourcing and distributing premium herbs used in traditional Chinese medicine.
Among American Healing’s most popular offerings are Green Dragon and Imperial Qi, which together offer a hormone-treatment alternative for menopausal conditions. The focus is on stagnation of the liver Qi and of the kidney Qi, and the herbal products accelerate a healing process that promotes balance during menopause.
Ingredients in Green Dragon include several tubers and roots, as well as green orange peel and vaccaria seed. Taking these herbs often exerts a change that women become aware of over the course of two to four weeks.
