Deepen Your Tea Journey with Practice and Craft

Tea is more than a drink. She is a path to self-cultivation, relaxation, and healing. My authentic teas and handmade teawares are here to support your practice, bringing intention and peace to every sip.

tea practice / mentorship

Through regular tea ceremonies, I hope to inspire your tea journey. Below, you’ll find my blog sharing insights from my own path as a student of Tea. Check my Instagram @spintheleaves for more inspiration.

For those truly committed to ‘The Way of Tea,’ I offer limited 1-1 mentorship. This is for the few ready to dive deeply and dedicate themselves fully. Email spintheleaves@gmail.com with your background and intention. I’ll design a program (in-person or remote) only if it’s the right fit. Commitment and openness are essential.
