This richly illustrated book by tea master Soryo Matsumura shows you how to use the ancient Japanese tea ceremony to reduce stress and live a more enriching life. It is written for complete novices and explains all aspects of the tea ceremony with a focus on three major themes:- How to perform the tea ceremony both at home and in more formal gatherings
- The stress reduction benefits this ritual provides, helping you to appreciate the little things in life
- How the tea ceremony helps to connect us with others, transcending age, gender and creed
As well as showing you all the basics--how to sit, what to wear and how to follow the etiquette of tea preparation, drinking and conversation--Matsumura explains in a warm and friendly tone how this meditative practice has wider benefits. He encourages you to reflect on the importance of things like:
