Welcome to my tea blog! Here, have a cup of tea :).

In this blog, I will be drinking a lot of tea, but I am willing to share! I also will talk about my quest to create a comtemplative tea lifestyle and slow things down so that I can enjoy my life more, and about how drinking tea brings peace to my day.

It, truly, is the pause that refreshes, and I am asking myself how I can create more of that and less of the crazy-buzy, hurry-to-get-to-the-next-thing energy that all too often adds pressure and tension to my day.

Results...

Tea is so beneficial for your health and wellbeing that if you found that you could relate to any of those statements, then pausing for an afternoon cup or glass of tea would help. But if more than three of those statements resonated with you, I encourage you to find the time to take a break for tea.

If, like me, you could relate to them all, then I encourage you to add meditation to your schedule, as well. Both tea and meditation have been life-changing for me!
