A few meditative questions:

Tea memories - what holds dear to you? A warming cup? A family moment? A scent? A taste? A place? A time? In past meditations, guests have been reminded of a grandmother’s ritual, Summer holidays in Algiers, a dear one’s jasmine garden, a childhood moment of joy… Resting with tea evokes loving core memories, if we allow.
