A Tea Lady Ceremony is a guided way of being with your tea. Akin to a tea ritual or a tea meditation, a Tea Lady Ceremony combines herbal tea with a curation of breathwork, stillness, tea presence, meditation, visualisation and intention setting.

We offer herbal suggestions for each Tea Lady Ceremony, but there’s no need to follow them strictly. If chamomile is what you have, or peppermint is your daily favourite, that’s perfect. What matters most is the intention you bring to your cup. As a Western Medical Herbalist, I love to harmonise the tea with the quality I’m cultivating. Floral blends often accompany calming rituals; grounding roots such as turmeric, ginger, or ashwagandha support courage and steadiness; and bright herbs like peppermint uplift and renew. You might like to explore this for yourself; inviting your tea choice to become part of your ritual’s intuitive rhythm. Over time, you’ll find your own favourite pairings that reflect your heart’s season and the quality you wish to nurture.

Here’s the ABC of preparing for your Tea Lady Ceremony. A – Assemble Your Tea & Tools • Boil the kettle. • Choose your herbs, blend or teabag. • Ready your teapot or cup, and any utensils you need. B – Build Your Space • Find a quiet, comfortable spot where you won’t be distracted. • Adjust the lighting. Soft and soothing is best. • Add any personal touches (a cushion, a small flower, a candle). C – Create Your Presence • Settle into your space. • Make sure your tea is steeping and within reach. • Take a deep breath, allow yourself to arrive, and press Start. That’s it. With these simple steps, you’re ready to begin.

A Tea Lady Ceremony from the Tea Break Series is approximately 12 minutes long and created to fit within your 15 minute tea break. Longer ceremonies and rituals will arrive soon, so you can select the session that suits the time available to you.

You do not need any prior experience with tea rituals or meditation to join a Tea Lady Ceremony. Just prepare your tea as you like it, create a quiet, comfortable place to sit, and select the ceremony of your choice.

Tea Lady Ceremonies are delivered to you virtually, so you can sit wherever you are comfortable, whenever you have a quiet space in your day. Join the TLC community, download the app and select the ceremony that calls you. Be sure to subscribe to the TLC newsletter, to be the first to hear of our pop up in person ceremonies, and our virtual rituals, hosted live.

We cannot claim that a TLC will heal any medical condition. You may begin to notice that the presence and awareness cultivated in your regular Tea Lady Ceremony will begin to ripple outwards into daily life. Your next choice, your next interaction, the rest of your day may be quietly influenced by the calm nourishment you have cultivated in your Tea Lady Ceremony.

You are most welcome to participate if you don’t drink tea. Bring water, a warm or cool drink, or nothing. We strongly encourage that you sit in a quiet, comfortable place where you are unlikely to be disturbed.

Not at all. A Tea Lady Ceremony isn’t about the vessel or the method, it’s about the pause. If, like many of us, you prefer tea bags, simply place one in your favourite mug, find a comfortable nook, and press play on the ceremony that’s calling you in this moment.
