Slow down, be present
Slow Down, Be Present
Your ritual begins long before the first sip.
Listen
Hear the kettle warming.
The room is quieter than you realised.
Watch
See the bright green powder become liquid.
Small transformations are easy to miss when you're rushing.
Notice
Your mind will wander.
That's normal.
Simply bring it back to the bowl.
Be here
The tea doesn't ask you to do more.
Only to pay attention.
For a minute, that's enough.
Take this with you
Before your first sip tomorrow, pause for one full breath.
Then begin.
