The Way of Tea
Morgan Francesca
Morgann DéMarks has been a meditation practitioner for over 10 years with a dedicated focus on both the Vipassana and Zen traditions. Her practice led her to The Way of Tea (Cha Dao), where she began to share tea ceremonially by offering the Leaf as medicine and a means of deep connection. Initiated into a lineage, she has taken vows to commit to the practice and a life of service. She lived in Taiwan with her teacher, Wu De, at The Tea Sage Hut, a tea and zen center in Miaoli, Taiwan.

The Way of Tea
Cha Dao, or The Way of Tea, offers us the space to remember our connection to nature. This offering is an introduction to ‘bowl tea’ and the essence of simplicity and meditation. We will share tea together in silence and connect to this plant teacher as a bridge to the meditative mind while we cultivate inner harmony and awakened presence. There will be a few moments at the end for discussion, reflection and questions.
