A Different Side of Tea is Right There...Hiding In Plain Sight...Harmonize Your Qi...

There is an immersive, emotional journey that awaits our discovery, uncovered through a process of gradual, enhanced tea awareness...

While the journey begins with a sip, this discovery comes over time and with the development of tea knowledge. Tea awareness is there, waiting for us to access it, and it is so worth the investment of our precious time.

Look at tea...think of tea differently...I call this the Opportunity Beyond the Cup because it is about much more than the tea...

It is in the Life Lessons Tea Teaches us, the awareness it provides, that we find a new realm of life catalyzed by tea...Camellia sinensis is a vehicle to improve our lives...

The immersive Journey of Tea Awareness gives us something more...Opportunity beyond the aroma, taste, and flavor...Beyond The Cup...

A Few of the Life Lessons of Tea:

Enhances Quality of Life by elevating performance and pleasure...
Preserves wellbeing...Minimizes Your Biological Age...
Teaches us and creates awareness...
Helps us experience life...opens understanding...
Become a better version of ourselves...
Tea brings us together...

Finding the embodiment of tea...an emotional journey...

How? Through the extra-nutritional properties of tea...guiding a natural, enhanced free-flowing Qi...a vibrancy for life...

With time, we learn. When we open ourselves and seek the Life Lessons of Tea...we find them. We start, we experience, we observe...we learn...we grow.

We can also glean tea knowledge and awareness that supports Life Lessons of Tea from Cha-no-yu, the Japanese Tea Ceremony, a traditional way to appreciate tea. It teaches us to see the beauty in the ordinary, simple, and small things, to recognize the high value of everything given to us in this life.

The ceremony is based on four principles: harmony, respect, purity, and tranquility. How can tea create this awareness?...In what ways does tea balance our Qi?

Deeper inner meaning...

Variation in tea enjoyment is wide-ranging amongst cultures and individuals. Those wishing to enjoy The Opportunity Beyond The Cup through tea awareness will look to the effect of accumulated wellbeing and the enhanced cognitive functionality supported by bioactive compounds in the tea...all part of the Healthy tea Lifestyle...

Embracing the embodiment of tea...an emotional journey...

We are not looking for an emotional destination, but an emotional journey of wellbeing and awareness, an enlightenment induced by the influence of tea on our lives. Tea becomes a companion to our lives that continually centers us on awareness. It is a lifestyle synergistic with wellbeing...

Returning to Awareness of the Japanese Tea Philosophy, we observe WA, harmony, referring to balance and peaceful coexistence. KEI refers to respect, showing respect for the tea ceremony and what it embodies. SEI is purity, the state of purity of the heart and mind that opens one to the opportunity of the tea ceremony, and JAKU, referring to quiet solitude, the serenity that enables our spiritual release...I think of this as The Art of Tea...

These values are also vital to the concept of Qi, the inner state of dynamic harmony.

A place where not enough people go...

We tend to take tea for granted. We have a paradigm of tea that we have grown up with and have never considered something as attainable as The Opportunity Beyond The Cup...

Taking a step back from the day-to-day and visiting our inner self is a highly worthwhile practice that is encouraged by a cup of the right tea and can lead to a transformational outlook on your emotional perspective, a shift in your reality.

Enabling a free-flowing Qi...

The right tea contributes a free-flowing Qi, the vital force that animates the spirit of all living things. Tea reduces blood pressure by relaxing capillary walls, enhances circulation, and creates clarity, vitality, awareness, satisfaction, and enhanced cognitive function, the mental process of acquiring and using knowledge through the senses, experience, and thought. Experiencing these effects is synergistic with the development of a powerful and healthy Qi.

Which teas are the right teas?

Select the right teas...harvested at optimal times, fresh, well cared for, abundant in value-adding bioactive compounds...conducive to cognitive function and wellbeing.

While a long list of teas will especially enhance your quest, here is a starting point that you can use to harmonize your Qi and advance your enhanced awareness.
