Ep28 - Mastic, Mastiha, Mummies and Massage with Aristea Zougri of Althea Massage Therapy and Yoga
Update: 2019-03-28
Description
Heat from the body can soften it making it more pliable and chewy. Chewy is a key word around its etymology. It's a tree sap that is dried in the sun from only one place, the Greek island of Chios. It's all about mastic, or mastiha in Greek or by it's poetic name Tears of Chios. I'll look at its history, rarity, value and its many uses. There's art by Émile Bayard, Elisabetta Duminuco and Clémentine Bal. Our guest Aristea Zougri of Althea Massage Therapy and Yoga has a myriad of skills and talents as a massage therapist, yoga practitioner with her own line of body oils. We chat about her career, holistic treatments, lots about the food of her native Greece and some of her mastiha memories.
