This connection\, this belonging to ourselves and to the earth is our birth right and lineage. \nOur modern culture has lost this connection at the deepest level. Yet\, the connection remains. The way forward is by re-connecting and remembering who we are in the circle of life.  \nYou will learn how to taste tea like an herbalist. \nThe tea tasting is a way of waking up to the inner knowing\, the thinking and intelligence within our bodies. This knowledge allows us to connect to the plants\, to hear the plants\, to know the plants. \nThe plants remain our greatest teachers\, our direct connection to the teachings of the earth. These are ancient traditions that I am grateful to share\, as they were shared and taught to me. \nI hope you will join me in the circle of beloved belonging.  \nWhat to bring \nA cushion\, blanket or towel to sit on. A blanket if you might get cold.  \nA cup for tasting herbal tea.  \nA journal or something to write in.  \nWear comfortable clothes.  \nYour beautiful self to feel the love of the earth.  \nTips \nPlease arrive a few minutes early to park\, enter the garden and to get settled on your blanket or cushion. \nDress for the outside\, layers are usually best.  \nParking: You can park along Park Blvd\, or directly across the street from World Beat Center is a free public parking lot.
