If you serve tea regularly and would like some extra magazines or tea tins to give out to help spread the word about Global Tea Hut, please let us know. We are also looking to donate magazines to public places.
We are trying to expand by connecting with podcasts, blogs, journalists and other communities. If you have a suggestion, please email our PR point person, Emily Cross at: emily.global.tea.hut@gmail.com
We hope to revitalize our video content this year, bringing weekly videos to Instagram and Youtube, along with our live broadcasts. Help participate and let us know what you would like to see.
This year's Annual Global Tea Hut trip has been announced. It is going to be a very exciting trip to Chaozhou (the birthplace of gongfu tea), Anxi, Phoenix Mountain and Hong Kong! Apply on our website.
Our Light Meets Life fundraiser teas and teaware are selling fast (some are sold out). We have some of the best cakes we have ever produced and some glorious gongfu teaware. All the proceeds will help build our future Center, called "Light Meets Life."
We are considering hosting two Annual Global Tea Hut Trips in 2018: our usual spring trip to a tea-growing region of Asia and a second trip within Taiwan itself. Would this second trip interest you?
We have been looking at land for Light Meets Life. Help us make our new Center a reality by reading the "10kx2020" pamphlet and contacting us if you feel there is any way you can help!
February Affirmation
I am equanimous
Do the rolling waves of life upset the balance of my mind? I remember to breathe: breathing in, I am aware of my body and mind. Breathing out, I let go of all tension and rest in the natural Stillness that is my true self, my nature.
Center News
Before you visit, check out the Center's website (www.teasagehut.org) to read about the schedule, food, what you should bring, etc. Make sure you apply early for courses as they fill up fast (this is why we need a bigger, more awesome Center).
We have just acquired a third property, which will be our new office. The old office was getting crowded, and we also wanted some room for future growth. This means we also have more room for you to come serve courses!
We are considering offering one longer, more meditative course for older/experienced students in 2018. This course would be twenty days, cover each brewing method more indepth and also include more meditation each day. Would you be interested? If so, what time of year would be best for you?
It is worth getting on a waiting list if the course you wish to apply for is full. We often have last-minute openings for courses if you are willing to fly last minute!
