Hey my name is Lera and I am a tea expert. In search for The Way of Tea I travelled all over the world and studied with tea masters both in London and in China. I am&nbsp... More Info »
This Funzing Experience:

Tea Ceremony is a space where magic happens. It is about slowing down and connecting - with ourselves, each other and the world around us. Through sharing tea in noble silence we are coming yet again to our centre, our hearts, our being.

Each Tea Ceremony is unique, however, there is always a sense of inner stillness and peace emerging from it. Every time we sit in ceremony and experience tea, we immerse in the dance of all our senses and elements. Tea is such a powerful yet gentle and caring Medicine Plant. She gives everyone exactly what they need, takes them to the place they need to be in and shows them things they need to see. She can lift us, ground us, inspire, heal and nourish us while at the same time holding space for us to communicate and share.

During tea ceremony, we shall focus our attention on tea, examine its colour, aroma. Tune into tea. Watch carefully how water merges with fire. Feel teaware with all our being. Feel that our body is also a precious vessel. Perform each movement with complete awareness and presence, always remembering the importance of every object, every action. "How you do anything is how you do everything," - Wu De, my teacher from Global Tea Hut constantly reminds us. Tea is a great Teacher to cultivate that.

Simply drinking tea, brewing it, listening to the sound of wind outside and the sound of boiling water – this is the way to inner harmony and balance of mind, an opportunity to be in a present moment without ruminating about the past or worrying about the future. Tea provides this opportunity to everyone.

Because this experience takes place in Lera's home, places are limited. Lera's Tea Meditation gatherings are very warm and friendly and the encounters each person experiences with the leaf, with other people and with themselves are usually at a deep level so you should come with an open mind.

The seating is done on the floor and there will be plenty of cushions. Comfortable clothing is recommended.

Lera is looking forward to sharing a bowl of tea with you all!

Please note that if we don't have enough people for this event, it will be cancelled and you will be notified a day before.
