Beauty Way Medicine
Tea Meditations
Tea ceremony is an ancient way of honoring the Tea plant, Camellia sinensis.
Tea meditation is a practice devoted to sipping, tasting, smelling, feeling and sensing the plants.
It is a way of knowing the plants through our own divine senses.
The best way to learn about the plants is from the plants themselves.
When we work with the leaves and flowers we make an infusion.
When we work with the bark, roots, rhizomes and resins we make a decoction.
When we sip we bring all of our awareness into that very moment, noticing, feeling and sensing.
The highest wisdom will come from your direct experience with the plants,
