"Sip, savor, and surrender into the cozy comfort of tea drinking! Throughout history, this ritual has been a source of calm for cultures worldwide and continues to be a powerful way to soothe the mind and connect with loved ones. Whether you prefer a piping hot cup of loose-leaf tea or a comforting cup of herbal tea, the warmth alone can bring feelings of generosity and care towards others.
But let's not forget the added health benefits like a boost of antioxidants and lower risk of high blood pressure. That's why we recommend taking this tea time to the next level with a tea meditation.
What's a tea meditation, you ask?
It's simply being present in each step of the tea making and drinking process - from selecting your tea, to pouring the water, and finally sipping away.
With mindfulness woven into this routine, you'll enjoy a sense of calm, focus, and peace in your day.
Here's how to get started:
choose your tea based on your mood and needs…
select a cup that brings joy to your soul, and as you wait for the water to boil, breathe deeply and fully …
immerse yourself in the process. As you watch the tea transition and add any cream or sweeteners….
savor each sip with intention. Feel the warmth of the cup, and the aroma of the tea, and let each sip nourish you….
Take your time, notice any thoughts and feelings that arise, and end this meditative tea time with gratitude for the tea, the journey it took to get to you, and for this moment of solitude….
So, grab your favorite mug, sit back, and let the tea and meditation work its magic!"
