tea journeys
Tea Journeys are my main work, in these sessions we drink a variety of rare teas in series, each of which will shift your awareness into a deeper, expanded, and more relaxed state, open you and take you to new places within yourself. It is like rather like drinking a song, each tea is a note and stringing the notes together produces a beautiful journey through the vibrations of Self and Nature. During these voyages, I communicate the essence of the spirit of tea as well as educate people about the art of tea. I offer the experience of tea, using teas that relax, open, restore, heal, and cleanse body, mind, and spirit. It is truly a magical, fun experience and deeply healing.
These journeys can be for anywhere from 1 to 7 people, every journey is different and the teas are picked according to the flow of the day, the universal energy, and the state of the guests.
“The Art of Tea is one of Listening.
Each tea is a particular energy and plant spirit, they are constantly talking to us, if we only have the ears to listen.
This tea school is dedicated to the art of hearing Nature: Plant Nature, Your Nature, Nature, the Tao.”
Tea Monk Po (Paul Rosenberg), 2012
What to Expect during a Session
The tea temple atmosphere includes old Asian art, flowers, Persian carpets, incense, candles, and beautiful music. With intention, attention, a sense of service and an open being, the tea preparer creates an environment in which others can truly feel a deeper part of themselves and a larger dimension of life (and laughter-tea is profound but not serious). Tea is a vehicle to feel that each moment is special and transcendent and this ritual creates the sense of the beauty of each unfolding moment. These sessions are always different, and always relaxed and fun. You job is simply to show up, enjoy and let me share my art with you.
About the Teas used for the Journeys
The rare teas an herbs I use are from sacred mountains and valleys and have amazing flavor and aroma profiles: earth, wood, dried fruits wild flowers, moss, rain, bark, and other flavors which it is hard to find language for. They are evocative, stirring up deep memories of places seen and unseen. They are from sacred mountains, hidden valleys, wild places, from bio-diverse landscapes filled with flowers, herbs, trees, fungi- all of which add to the special power of these teas. It is often like drinking a whole landscape and all of nature contained in it. Each tea has a specific energy or “chi” which effects the channels and chakras in the body- opening, cleansing, harmonizing, balancing, transcending. Come and have a new experience!
