Korean Tea Ceremony(다례 · Darye)

​In Korean, 다례 (Darye) means “etiquette for tea,” a centuries-old ritual of offering tea with reverence, care, and mindfulness. It is a practice rooted in harmony, humility, and stillness, offering a quiet space to honor life, self, and others.

For me, the Korean tea ceremony is not just a cultural practice—it is a soul offering. Trained by Korean tea masters in the Gyeongnam province, I was guided into the deep beauty of this tradition. Yet, this path also became a personal healing. For years, I had distanced myself from my Korean roots due to unprocessed trauma. Coming back to tea—my tea—became a way of returning home to myself and my lineage with tenderness and pride.

While breathwork helps us release and sound healing restores, tea ceremony invites us to simply be—to slow down, to notice, and to feel gratitude in each moment. In the quiet ritual of brewing and serving tea, we remember how to love the moment, how to honor what we have, and how to dwell in presence with grace.

This ceremony is an invitation—to reclaim your breath, your peace, and the soft power of slowness.

Come sit, sip, and share in this timeless practice of Korean heartfulness.
Your presence is the offering.
