take a moment to slow down, tune in, and feel the pull from your heart.
Tea originated in Yunnan, China thousands of years ago; traditionally used as a daily, spiritual elixir for calming the mind and attuning us to Nature. The leaf has captivated the hearts of many cultures and peoples, traded and exported all over the globe. It is the oldest and the second most consumed beverage on the planet, after water.
Through Cha Dao, “The Way of Tea,” we return to what’s simple and sacred. Sitting with and sipping in the essence of nature to find a moment of peace within ourselves and all of life.
Through drinking many bowls of old growth camellia sinensi leaves we bring vitality to the body, open the heart and mind, and align with spirit.
Tea is known as the "Great Connector,” connecting us to ourselves, nature, those we share tea with, & the infinite universe.
As an intuitive & adaptogenic plant, tea meets you where you are and brings you what you need. Cleansing tears, deep presence, clarity, grounding, insights, connecting on a meaningful level... all is welcome and honored.
The leaf is an embodiment of earth wisdom. It brings you to a deeply meditative state which allows you to surrender to the mystery and listen. All there is to do is drink tea.
“Practicing silence means making a commitment to take a certain amount of time to simply Be.”
—Deepak Chopra

"You can expect to feel welcomed, relaxed, comfortable, and in a deep meditative state. I get so much from each ceremony; messages from the universe, my guides, and even my higher self. It’s truly an experience like no other and something I always look forward to doing. If I’m ever feeling lost and join Ashley for Tea, I always find my footing again afterwards. It’s truly powerful and I honestly could not recommend it enough."
