Mindfulness Of Tea (Sereni-tea Ceremony)

This is a short guided meditation on tea, an invitation to focus on our senses and to notice how it makes us feel emotional to pause and do something really nourishing. I often recommend those who participate in mindfulness groups with me in person to use the breaks in the sessions as a way of connecting their mindfulness practice with their daily life by using seemingly innocuous things that many of us do every day - like having a cup of tea. Often, I’d bring some unusual teas to my sessions and encourage them to try something that shifts them out of their habitual preferences, likes, and dislikes.
