Saturday, May 16, 2:00 – 3:30 p.m. CT
Join Titi for a serene and enriching Tea Meditation Ceremony, a unique experience blending elements from Chinese and Japanese tea cultures, Zen and yogic philosophies, and Taoism. This intimate gathering invites you to slow down and embrace the present moment through the ancient and meditative practice of tea.
The session will begin in silence, allowing participants to fully immerse themselves in the ritual of tea making. Titi will guide you through the meditative process, sharing insights on the tea and philosophies that inspire the practice. You will enjoy three rounds of tea, each symbolizing a connection to Heaven, Self, and Earth, respectively. This triad is repeated three times with different tea leaves, each selected to harmonize and enhance the peaceful experience. Through these nine cups, you are invited to embrace the abundance found in simplicity, mindfulness, and being present.
We invite you to experience the beauty of this ancient sacred ritual and discover the power of simplicity.
Limit: 12 people.
