I am aiming to make sure to have a private tea session at least 2-3 times a week. My most recent? This lovely 2014 shu pu'erh from @verdanttea that I dabbled into that was given to me from a surprise tea swap with @tiffanydrinkstea . 

My tea sessions have increasingly improved from awakening my tea leaves. I never really saw the point before of pre-warming my tea ware, but now I absolutely love doing so. It helps so so much. More morning musings. Also, here is a new piece of pottery that I bought and thought it would be lovely for displaying tea. ☺
Morning Musings: Occasionally, I feel as if I un Morning Musings: 

Occasionally, I feel as if I underestimate the power that tea can hold. When used, it can help me focus, help me meditate on issues, or even center me. But the vessel that is used gives me the occasional pause. 

Is this tea any less worthy because it was a teabag and comes in a to-go container? I think not. But do I treat it the same as if I was doing a private tea session, I think not. As I sat in this beautiful garden, I drank the tea and looked at the mountain range, birds, and life around me. I was comforted by the tea, no change there, and blissfully sat in peaceful harmony. The tea gave me the same pause and benefits in the to-go container as it does in my gaiwan, so my mindset had to be reset (I have realized). 

I will have to admit, I was a bit shameful to even realize that I was treating the vessel as a different experience. I love tea. No matter the container. This seems to be a silly musing, but on four hours of sleep, I guess the mind wanders aimlessly sometimes. 

 What do you feel about this?

What are your thoughts on this smoky tea? Do you enjoy it, hate it, or have passive thoughts on it?  I absolutely ADORE smoky teas, especially Lapsang Souchong. 

This one by @shiftingsenses *gifted for review* was absolutely beautiful, and showed me the difference between high quality lapsanga and lower ones that I have been consuming. The entire details of my tea session are available on the last post of my blog. Link in bio!
One thing I deeply miss, is going to tea cafes and One thing I deeply miss, is going to tea cafes and rooms. Looks back through my photos, I am reminded of when Jacob and I went to Chattanooga (got a parking ticket πŸ˜‘) and visited the Wildflower Tea Shop & Apothecary (@wildflowerteashop )

There is something special about the way the tea lines the walls of the room and the feeling of the room itself. The rustic walls made the experience so much richer. 

What tea room do you want to visit when we are able to??
