Object Meditation with Tea

We teamed up with our hatha yoga teacher, Jutta, to host a guided object meditation with one chosen object from the Nepali artisanal pieces or an object the participant brings to the meditation.

We will gather for a small tea ritual by Nari Tea, serving a special Nepali tea as a gentle way to arrive into the body, the senses, and the space. From there, Jutta will guide us into a simple practice of focused attention, using the chosen object as an anchor. The practice is inspired by the yoga tradition of dharana — one-pointed concentration — gently leading towards dhyana, meditative awareness.

Rather than looking at an object only through function, use, or explanation, this session invites us to stay with it: its presence, materiality, details, and the subtle relationship that forms through attention – a small gathering for slowing the gaze, settling the mind, and meeting an object through tea, breath, and awareness.

The session is total around 45 mins.

To make this event accessible to everyone, this event is donation based onsite. Please RSVP.
