Join Taniya Gupta from YogaTeaPoetry and Traci Levy from Tea Infusiast for an online International Women’s Day Celebration with Tea and Poetry!*
Background
International Women’s Day, officially honored every year on March 8th, was created in 1911. It’s a day to focus our attention on creating, “a gender equal world. A world free of bias, stereotypes, and discrimination…that’s diverse, equitable, and inclusive.” It promotes “a world where difference is valued and celebrated” (InternationalWomensDay.com).

December’s Virtual Tea Table
December’s Virtual Tea Table features tea and rest practices in a new, convenient format–videos that you can practice with at your convenience! Read on for details and how to sign up so you can slow down.
Wouldn’t it feel great to enjoy curated tea and rest sessions–to slow down and move through the month of December with more intention and energy?
To acknowledge the extra time pressures that December tends to bring, I’m offering a different approach to December’s Virtual Tea Table—my rest practice series for tea lovers.
Instead of VTT synchronous gatherings in December, I’m offering a weekly video to practice with at your convenience!
Join one, two, or all three sessions of November’s Virtual Tea Table. This series creates a welcoming weekday space to rest in community with other tea lovers.
What Is The Virtual Tea Table?
Hello Tea Friend! If steeping tea together, resting in communiTEA, and exploring other ways you might live a more restful life sound good to you, then I warmly invite you to gather around the Virtual Tea Table in November.
Read on for details and how to sign up for one, two, or all three sessions of November’s Virtual Tea Table gatherings.

Story of a Teacup: November 2023
Do you love tea, teaware, and stories? Supporting caregivers? If you answered “yes,” join us for Story of a Teacup!
On November 5th, we will join online, settle in, and steep tea together. Then, we’ll listen to four members of the tea community tell us the backstory about a special piece of teaware from their collection. We have a great lineup, including: Sooz from Being Tea, Connie from Tea In Spoons, Julia from @MKJulia. I’m also excited to share a story. [This event has passed. We raised just over $300 for a non-profit, as explained below.]

October’s Virtual Tea Table
Join other tea lovers for a restful session around October’s Virtual Tea Table.
This series provides a welcoming weekday space to rest in community with other tea lovers online.
We integrate a meaningful break (30 minutes) into our workweek to slow down and recharge.
Sign up for as many or as few sessions as you like!
This post explains the relationship between my tea and rest practices, the journey they took me on, and how to register for the events they inspired me to create. My August and September 2023 events center on rest!
If you have bought your ticket, please join us for our rescheduled “Sip & Listen” edition of Story of a Teacup on January 14, 2023! We will join together online, settle in, steep tea together, and listen to four members of the #CommuniTEA share a story about a special piece of their teaware. (This event was rescheduled from November 2022.) I’m thrilled to welcome Taniya from Yoga, Tea, and Poetry as our special guest for this event! Nazanin from Tea Thoughts and Jeff from UNYtea will be joining Taniya and me as featured storytellers.
The proceeds, ALL ticket sales, have been donated to a nonprofit organization in Chicago, Erie Neighborhood House. This organization supports low-income and immigrant families. Among the many things it does, Erie House has also been providing direct assistance in Chicago to hundreds of people who have been bused in from Texas under Governor Abbott’s inhumane policies against immigrants legally seeking asylum at the southern border.
