THE ART OF TEA is a devotional apprenticeship in the art of presence—where water, leaf, breath, and intention become your teachers. You’ll learn the foundations of Cha Dao and gongfu-style service (heat, rinse, pour, steep times), palate training, water alchemy, altar setup, and flow—plus how to weave breathwork, mantra, and somatic stillness into every pour. We will cover ethical and affordable sourcing, the philosophy of single tea pairing, affordable authentic teapots, tea origins, the spiritual and energetic qualities of the leaf, health benefits, and how to anchor it all in practice and integrity.

You’ll also craft tea blends—both within the same genre and across genres—so you can shape mood, clarity, and ceremony with intention. By completion, you’ll hold a deeper, embodied understanding of the six genres of tea (white, green, yellow, oolong, black/red, and dark/pu-erh) and the practical skills for continued self-exploration—plus the confidence to share tea with friends, family, and clients through simple, sincere ceremonies.

What it is: a devotional apprenticeship in Cha Dao + gongfu service—heat, rinse, pour, steep, presence.

What you’ll learn:

  1. Tea as medicine: learn the energetic/physiological qualities of leaves (cooling/warming, calming/uplifting), gentle contraindications, and pairing blends to mood + intention.

  2. Set & setting: craft the inner set (intention, breath, nervous-system readiness) and outer setting (altar, light, sound, seating, silence) so every cup becomes ceremony.

  3. Six genres mastery: white • green • yellow • oolong • black/red • dark/pu-erh—origins, processing, water temps, steep times, palate training.

  4. Blending lab: create blends within a genre and cross-genre to shape focus, calm, digestion, or dreamwork—plus journaling to track effects.

  5. Tools on a budget: affordable authentic teapots, kettles, cups; what truly matters vs. nice-to-have.

  6. Ethical & affordable sourcing: find trusted vendors, read labels, avoid greenwashing, and support small growers when possible.

  7. Service flow: altar setup, guest welcome, pacing, silence cues, and how to read the room with trauma-aware care.

  8. Integration: close the circle with breath, gratitude, and a simple reflection prompt; send guests home with steep notes + practice suggestions.

  9. Outcomes: confidence to host sincere tea circles at home or professionally; embodied understanding of tea’s effects; skills for continued self-exploration and sharing with friends, family, and clients.
