When Tea Tasted Yellow
Session on February 26, 2026 with Lyvon & Mary; Christophe & Austen
Hey tea-friends!
What a great sleepless night this is going to be! (in a good way, right?!!)
Earlier today, when I was getting the space ready for you, I was a little anxious...I think from thinking about my upcoming travels, and the fact that we're still in the thick of the semester at school!
But, as we talked about a little today, slowing down is a life-long practice, and I wanted to slow down for tea today! And what a delight it's been meeting each and every one of you! The energy that each one of you brought to the table was exactly what was needed for the ceremony today!
I wish you well on your journey that is life, and look forward to our next cup together!
