Winter Solstice 2015

The Winter Solstice, Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas etc etc. With so many names and traditions wrapped around one event, it lends credibility to a significant moment. From scientific evaluations of the moment such as altered UV rays and unique spectrum signatures to spiritual experiences and a renewal in peoples spirits, hearts and minds , we all seem to process this day differently. Regardless of a persons believes or traditions, the solstice creates an essence in the world and people participate in it in their own way. This was the purpose of ZP.tech’s product “Solstice”. We aimed at acknowledging the season, the energy, the experience and we make a unique alchemy for the mind and the body that we believe honors the event and captures the exciting momentum of the renewal. Solstice is available for a limited time and we invite to you to experience the Solstice in a new way. 

Review. Renew. Revive.

Pause. Take a deep breath. Feel better? We’re coming off of the hustle of summer and settling into a different pace of fall. For many this is a time where life both get’s busier but more steady. It’s also a popular time of the year for reflection and pondering ones experiences. This is an over-looked critical component to ones self development. Once needs to pause, and review their journey to grow, learn, develop and move ahead with a more clear vision. From careers to relationships, Spirituality to self-expression, it’s vital for people to reflect. We’d like to encourage everyone this fall to pause for a moments and be still and rest. Review. Renew. Revive. These little moments where we can observe the path behind us allows us to have a more clear field of view for the road ahead. We hope you enjoy the transition of the season and get a chance to grow from your life experience. Enjoy. =) 

KALEIDOSCOPE!

The Keleidoscope promotion this month is very exciting. The production process, interesting for many, is precise and timely. For those that are familiar with the common methods of producing M-States, all are a bit different, all create different types of M-States, all take a lot of time. Here at the ZP.tech lab, patience and precision are two core ingredients to the M-State production process. During the powder production process, in a low-humidity clean room we allow the crystals to dry at their own pace absent of heating lamps and drying accelerants which allows a consistent powder to produce from the crystals. As with any drying process, there are residual captures on each drying glass that we collect and blend with the other drying glass collections. This combination creates kaleidoscope, a fun, powerful, very limited and unique M-State blend. Each batch is different. We encourage all to try this batch. It's catchy, high energy and zesty with a contemplative overtone. We hope you enjoy this run and we hope to hear from you soon!

The Sharper Edge

ZP.tech is pleased to introduce our newest product to our Alloy line. We’ve blended six of the best-known metals that aid in Neuro-processes together to create an exciting new combination of mineral nutrition not otherwise available in regular diet.

Nutritional factors that can influence mental health include the intake of basic nutrients such as proteins, carbohydrates, fats, alcohol, vitamins, minerals and overall energy consumption. Usually, the lack of several nutrients rather than a single nutrient is the cause of deterioration in brain functioning.

With cutting edge science and discovery, we've identified a powerful and effective blend of M-States to empower the brain and all of its functions to enhance living, emotions, ambitions, and the entire life experience. These metals and minerals are specifically blended to get the most out of our brains. Together with the proper food nutrition, water, exercise, sleep, and personal interaction, we give ourselves the best conditions to thrive, not just live.

Leveraging the latest developments in Brain discovery, ZP.tech’s newest product “Conduit” takes direct aim at what people are pursuing most… a sharper mind with quicker cognitive functions. A sharper mind increases production, enhances the body’s function and elevates overall consciousness.

M-States and ORMES alloys

The benefit of Monoatomic minerals is that they are absent of Metallic properties, which eliminates the heavy metal toxicity. Blended together in a balanced formula, alloys can be created to focus on different nutritional needs. You can never overdose or take too much of these, as your body simply treats it as a mineral and will always expel any excess through urine. They can never build up the same way other metals do, and they blend nicely, like other metals won’t.

The right combination of minerals is important for proper functionality.
Vitamins and minerals need each other to function efficiently.
For instance, Copper works with Calcium to develop and repair cognitive tissue. However, Copper can go too far. Zinc needs to be present to tame Copper. This is one example of how and why a blend of minerals and metals work together for the greater cognitive good.

Conduit introduces a brand new M-State Metal to our existing lineup, Manganese, which compliments a combination of six minerals that work well in the brain.

Vitamins also are important nutrients needed for brain function. Vitamin B Complex (all 8 of the B vitamins) play a big role in the brain. The brain uses these vitamins to produce fuel from glucose. With out the fuel, and a daily supply of it, the brain is in bad shape hindering our performance. Many of the B's and Folate are found in grains, legumes, fruits and veggies. B12 and Omegas naturally occur in animal products like fish, poultry, meat, eggs and dairy. Vitamin C and E help the brain create the neuro-transmitter, norepinephrine, which will influence our emotions, learning, sleeping and of course dreaming. All fruits and vegetables are good for these, but keep a focus on bell peppers, asparagus, citrus fruits, leafy green and strawberries for a powerful source Vitamin E. Nuts, vegetable oils and whole grains also help guard against neurodegenerative diseases.

Iron, copper and zinc are critical minerals. Deficiencies in these levels may impair learning, memory recall and concentration robbing you of critical brain functions. Calcium helps build "signal pathways" that establish stronger connections in the brain and help the dynamic protein development process.

Brain Nutrition

Brain health is drawing ever-increasing attention. The brain being roughly 2% of the body’s mass and weight, consumes over 20% of the oxygen the body brings in. The human brain uses about 20 to 30% of a person's energy intake. Relative to its size and weight, it is very demanding. That's why people who don't consume enough calories in their diet are more likely to experience changes in their brain functioning. This gives us a big clue to brain energy consumption and along with Oxygen, vitamins and minerals are vital.

It's safe to say, the brain thrives on a healthy, complete diet. Focusing on what you eat can affect how you think and how well your brain functions. While everyone is unique to the different amounts needed, the list of building blocks are nearly the same. Pay close attention to what you're ingesting, it makes a big difference in your brain.

ZP.tech’s new blend “Conduit” gives the brain a combination of some of the best minerals it needs to experience consciousness to it’s fullest. Gold, Platinum, Copper, Zinc, Iron, and Manganese all play a vital role. They all enhance brain function, and all work in combination for best results.

The Art of Contentment

We've discussed happiness before. Owning it. Making it. Deciding for it. Contentment is one of those things often times over looked, taking that pause and looking at what you've got and thinking, "not too bad". If you're reading this on a screen, life, realistically, is probably pretty abundant. But what about this silly human condition we have? ALWAYS wanting more? Confusing ou wants with our needs, then actually bringing ourselves lower if we don't have that gizmo or experience that event. The human experience is pretty amazing and we have to live this ride makes a difference. Yes, life's not fair, there's someone with more than you, and someone with less. Desire doesn't have to be bad and can motivate us to do great things, however, we can also take it a little too far as well. Where is this balance? It's a little different for everybody, however, taking a pause to reflect and focus on contentment usually pays big dividends. People confuse contentment with apathy, nothing could be further from the truth. You can be happy with less and still working towards more. It simply means, you'll live a happier life longer as you've been enjoying the ride along the way. This summer, we encourage everyone to stop, smell the roses a bit, give that nod and thanks to the universe for the things you have and see how hard you've worked. You've got more you want to do thats ahead, and that's okay, so is stopping to see how far you've come. 

Caught In The Tension

Have you ever been caught in that "tension" between having control and not having control? Have you at one point decided that everything is singularity and everything is only a process of reactions and function, then bounced to the other side thinking everything is somehow connected? Don't worry, you're normal. We learn both sides of the story and there's compelling arguments for both. Living in this tension is part of the life experience. We process, react, decide and then do it all over again. Here at ZP.tech, we look to the brain and the mind regularly. It's fascinating, there's so much that we know and yet, we still know so little. New discoveries everyday all across the world take us further along this path. From time to time our thoughts may be consumed by a celebration, a problem, politics, religion, relationships, responsibilities and more. Other times, we find ourselves "free" from such mental captures then, we're there again, caught in the tension. We've in the last year talked about stress, how to make the most of your time, how and why to invest in ourselves, how to gain and apply laser focus and how to let it all go. Have you ever had that "Zen moment" where everything seems to click and it's unexplainable? Maybe it was in music, driving home from work and arriving in your driveway not remembering the commute, a task that you found a rhythm for and it was suddenly and enjoyably completed. These little moments we often times don't reflect on or even pay much attention to when they happen but those little moments are so important. It's those little moments where we're released from that "tension" and find a mental freedom that we not only long for, but grow and strengthen in. The pursuit and reasons for these moments come by many names and practices depending on ones beliefs. Mediation, prayer, reflection, visualization, exercise and more. Regardless in which line in the sand a person stands on for an interpretation of tension, the desire for this mental freedom still remains. This spring, we encourage all to get out and get away for a bit. Seek out that mental freedom and relish in it. Enjoy!

A Second Look At Yoga

It's been an exciting time here at the lab recently. Well, it's always exciting, but we've brought out the video gear and began to work on new video Vlogs to share more information about ZP.tech, our products and how to use them. We're very excited to share our usage instructions video. Because ZP.tech products are so flexible, there's countless ways to enjoy your M-States. Over the last two years, we've shared a recipe each month with new ways to cook with your M-States. From Baked Salmon to Smoothies, M-States are very exciting to cook with. As we make our way into Spring, many will find new things to do, wipe the dust of the spring and summer toys and begin to prepare for a renewal to life. Habits from the winter months can sometimes be hard to let go of. One of the easiest places to start is with activity. Yoga has been around for a long time and has proven benefits for both physical and mental health. Many shy away from Yoga due to the odd poses and it's been firmly attached to a female activity. Men, we strongly encourage you to take another look at yoga. Not to exclude the ladies out there, but you girls seemed to have figured this out. For men, here's a great artciel for you to review to see if any of the benefits of yoga are appealing to you. Enjoy and welcome to spring!

Neuro-Economics

The Winter Lull. Are you feeling it? For some, winter is a day to day battle, especially after the new year. The holidays were forever ago, and the tundra landscape before us stretches to the horizon. For many, winter is the best season, winter sports, winter events and more bring a lot of joy and anticipation. This season is "buckle down" time for many with ambitious goals of weight loss, finishing reading that book, finishing that painting and much more. Winter is one of those seasons that really challenges a lot of peoples focus and will power. Instead of leaning into the winter blues, here's an idea. Let's embrace the challenge and win this winter. Where do we start? Well, for many it's a simple decision to do so. Sounds easy, but difficult to do. There's a very insightful field of study out there called "NeuroEconomics". This is an amazing field of study, and for all of us average Joes and Janes out there that are not Brain Scientists, we can gather a lot of input that helps us understand how the brain makes decisions. What small changes can we make to our environment that influences us to make certain decisions? The easiest example is food. If we see and are right next to food that we love to eat but shouldn't, is it harder to ignore it? Of course it is, and there's nothing wrong with that. Before we begin bashing on will power and self control, it's important to acknowledge that our brain produces proteins from the hypothalamus as a result of stimulation and habits and our environments. Just a little research on these topics helps you grasp the decision making process and allows us to create or try to create environments that foster success, self control and happiness. Yes, even in winter. The brain is absolutely fascinating and powerful. Although we still know so little about it, with the information available today for free, there's a wealth of self betterment, happiness and enrichment right in front of us and this winter can really be an "out with the old, in with the new" season for you. We wish you the best and good luck!

High Function

As 2013 comes to a close, the white hot topics of todays fast trackers is all about getting ahead. With a renewed spirit of competition in the work and academic worlds from people across the globe functioning in survival mode for the last 5 years, there's no short supply on books, concentration music, new "techniques" to improve faster and more. For ZP.tech, the last 15+ years has been an intense focus and study on wellbeing, brain function, personal excellence and more. All of this is so fitting to the latest research and practices of the ambitious. From sleep and dreams to high nutrient superfoods, we've been participating in this area through the ups and downs of societies mass adoption of "Super Focus" for nearly two decades. One of the bi-products of our research and lab work is a simple pooling of our residual powders. Each harvest is different with the proportions of our high quality M-States. We call this mixture Kaleidoscope being symbolic of it's beauty and ever changing mixture
