This gentle tea trek invites us into the medicine of slowness, shared rhythm, and grounded presence. We’ll walk an easy, mostly flat trail with one short, invigorating uphill ascent that opens into a hidden aspen grove—an ideal place to pause, breathe, and gather.

Once in the grove, we’ll settle into a deeply meditative tea ceremony and contemplative discussion exploring tea practice as a daily ritual for longevity, resilience, and emotional nourishment. Together, we’ll reflect on how simple, repeated practices—walking, brewing, listening—become sources of long-term vitality and connection. This experience emphasizes wellbeing not as something we do alone, but as something we cultivate together, allowing presence and care to ripple outward into our communities.
