Engaging in a tea ceremony with Cassie is more than a personal retreat; it’s a journey into collective impact. Each session offers a space for reflection and transformation, where your unique presence contributes to a larger narrative of positive change.
Cassie’s dedication to sustainability and mindful practices is evident in her selection of organic, pesticide-free teas. These teas, nurtured in natural environments with minimal human interference, honour both the land and the farmers who cultivate them. Support of these ancient, biodynamic methods helps protect and preserve the farmers’ gentler, holistic approach as custodians of these practices and the land.
With a devotion to giving back, Cassie also chooses to gift a percentage of each Sit forward, and donates to a charity of her choosing. In this way, Tea makes a positive difference for community on the other side of the world; feeding, clothing and housing humans and animals in need of help.
By participating in Cassie’s tea ceremonies, you join a broader movement of intentional living and compassionate giving, enriching lives around the world, bowl by bowl.
