/// ABOUT SACRED TEA CEREMONY IN ST. PETERSBURG, FLORIDA /// Ashley is honored to have been able to introduce the practice of the Cha Dao Sacred Tea Ceremony to the East Coat of the United States in 2016. Being one of the few original students to study directly at the Global Tea Hut with it’s founder WuDe, world renowned tea master, author and Zen monk, while living abroad in Taiwan, she is a dedicated student, daily practitioner, and teacher of this healing form. Cha Dao, or Sacred Tea Ceremony is a practice that has its roots in shamanistic Taoism and Zen Buddhism. The earliest written records of Tea describe this plant found in the wild as Medicine that brightened the eyes and opened the Heart. It was domesticated by monks for its ability to support calm and awakened presence and sustain practitioners in extended meditation. Tea is a plant spirit medicine and comes with her own wisdom and intelligence. The leaves used in our practice are ceremonial grade and come from living trees that are hundreds of years old, meaning that when we sit in ceremony and receive this medicine, we are also drinking in the hundred’s years’ worth of moon, star, and sunshine. This wise medicine always delivers exactly what we need, and every tea sitting is different and offers healing for all people who feel called to receive. Tea Ceremony is a unique and heartfelt way to come together with meaning and intention. I currently offer sacred tea ceremonies in St. Petersburg, Tampa, Sarasota and other areas of Florida. I also offer foundational teachings in Sacred Tea Ceremony.
