Zen Tea

Chan(Zen) Tea

Savoring Stillness, Sip by Sip

"Chan Tea" is more than just a beverage; it is a form of meditative practice rooted in the ancient wisdom of Chan Buddhism. By focusing on the act of brewing and drinking tea, one cultivates mindfulness and deepens their sense of inner peace.
In our modern world, where we are constantly bombarded by external stimuli and the rush of daily life, it's easy to lose touch with the present moment. Chan Tea offers a gentle yet profound way to pause, reflect, and regain balance amidst the chaos.
There are three essential components to the practice of Chan Tea: Preparation, Savoring the Tea, and Harmonizing the Mind.

Preparation

7 Jan 2019
The process of making Chan Tea is an exercise in mindfulness. Every movement, from boiling the water to selecting the tea leaves, is performed with intention and care. The goal is not speed or efficiency, but a calm, deliberate focus on each action, allowing the mind to settle into the rhythm of the present.

Savoring The Tea

7 Jan 2019
When drinking Chan Tea, bring your full attention to the aroma, taste, and warmth of each sip. Let the tea flow naturally, and allow yourself to become fully absorbed in the sensory experience. This mindful appreciation of the tea helps ground you in the here and now, much like focusing on the breath in meditation.

Harmonizing The Mind

7 Jan 2019
As you drink, thoughts may arise—about your day, your worries, or your plans. This is perfectly natural. The practice of Chan Tea teaches you not to cling to these thoughts or push them away. Simply observe them as they come and go, returning your attention gently to the tea. In this way, the simple act of drinking tea becomes a practice of mental clarity and presence.
