About: Gong-fu style tea is a simple, traditional way of preparing tea using small cups and multiple short pours. This method allows you to fully experience the taste, aroma, and effect of the tea, rather than rushing through it. Consider this approach with tea used as energetic and somatic medicine.
What to Expect: Your session begins with a brief check-in and intention setting. Then we move into a slow, guided gong-fu style tea practice using organic teas selected for your needs. There is time for quiet, time for reflection, and supportive, joyful conversation. We close with grounding and simple integration suggestions you can continue at home.
About the Teas: I work with a range of rare and modern teas sourced from small farms in China and Taiwan, alongside handcrafted herbal teas from the Pacific Northwest. These teas are grown and processed with care, often in small batches, using traditional methods that preserve the natural character of the leaves.
