Ichigo Ichie: One Time, One Meeting

With Mariana Oyaga

This course introduces Ichigo Ichie, a beautiful Japanese concept rooted in the tea ceremony and often translated as “one time, one meeting.” It invites you to recognize the uniqueness of each moment and become more fully present for the life unfolding around you. Through three lessons, you’ll explore how to bring this awareness to your own inner experience, your relationships with others, and the ordinary moments that make up your everyday life.
