San Bruno, CA
Please join us for a tea ceremony where I will be
presenting you with an array of herbs, teas, berries, flowers and roots that
will be composed and brewed into a flavorful tea in front of your eyes, with
sounds of water empowered by fire, with an aftertaste of blossoming meadows,
with a smell of something so sweet and earthy, that the experience will change
your state of mind for the night, and possibly forever, as it has done to me.
The experience that I refer to as Five Senses of Tea will
include handling of traditional tea instruments, smelling and tasting teas and
herbs as they get mixed and then brewed, opening up tea and herbs for you to
see what it means to properly harvest, ferment and store all the teas. You will
be taught how to tell apart a herbal tea and full leaf traditional teas.
You are also invited to bring a musical instrument, so
that we can enjoy the rhythm of that special night, authored by all of us.
The event will include Qi Gong and breathing exercises
that will help you relax (or perhaps focus) and have a wonderful, wholesome
experience. There will also be time for Q&A, so please bring your questions
and teas that you don't know how to brew and I guarantee that you will walk out
with knowledge that will benefit your life and lives of those close to you.
Things to know.
I. It's super important that you wear comfortable
clothing, as we will be sitting on the floor. And you may want to bring your
favorite sitting/meditation pillow.
II. I ask that you use your phone as a camera and sound
recorder only.
III. Bring any musical instruments you wish. As we will
be composers of our music, creating our own vibe.
IV. The event will be split into 2 parts. On The break,
there will be snacks and all sorts of food. Please bring something to share
with rest of participants.
