About this listen
An audiobook of deep wisdom, gleaned from a quarter of a century spent trying to master the intricacies of the Japanese Tea Ceremony.
For more than 25 years Noriko Morishita has studied and practised the intricate rules of the famous Japanese Tea Ceremony, trying to master its complexities in order to find inner peace. In this vivid account of her experience of the universal trials and triumphs of adulthood, Morishita connects the core tenets of this ancient art with leading a fulfilling life, showing how we too may use mindfulness to achieve happiness.
In The Wisdom of Tea Noriko describes her gradual discovery of freedom and insight within the very rules that once seemed so constricting. Looking back across her life, Noriko illuminates the real teachings of the Way of Tea: to live absolutely in the moment, to notice and delight in the smallest of details, to embrace the vital skills of patience and perseverance and to allow yourself to be.

Tea and mindfulness, a great combo
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It provided some insight into the way of the Japanese way of tea along with passages of wisdom sprinkled throughout. Unlike the majority of books in this category, it doesn't come across as stuffy, boring or preachy.
Note: this book is more about the experience rather than the tea itself. Enjoy 🍵

Absolutely LOVED it.
Just listened to this for the second time and picked up even more beautiful moments. I didn’t know anything about tea before this book, I just felt drawn to it. It soothed me through a difficult time and the second listen just had a similar effect. Marvellous how just listening about the ceremony has had that effect. Beautiful, gentle, kind listening ~ I think it’s everyone’s cup of tea.
