Gongfu Tea Ceremony
A Gongfu tea ceremony is centered around creating a mindfulness experience and indulgence of the senses. Using 21 steps, this ceremony includes three rounds of tea tasting, while smelling and observing the tea along its journey of transformation.
​
During the ceremony, performed in the traditional steps, Shelby will explain the purpose of each action and will invite you to participate in smelling the tea, observing the tea leaves, and, of course, tasting mindfully. She will also teach you how to drink tea with mindfulness.
Shelby's Approach to Tea Ceremony
Shelby's approach begins with a "Present Moment" meditation. Then you may decide who your tea cup is honoring. Some participants select a relative, friend, spirit guide, animal, or their higher self. In this practice, Shelby invites you to follow her own use of tea ceremonies to receive healing and wisdom from your chosen being. Some participants choose to skip this step and just enjoy the experience!
​
Shelby's public tea ceremonies and corporate ceremonies include a crystal singing bowl meditation or Shamanic sound healing.
