RITUAL FOCUS Settling the Spirit

Ancient Chinese Tea Rituals: Settling the Spirit.

Evening calm is the art of letting the day settle. In traditional language, this is about nourishing the Yin — the cooling, restful, and inward aspect of the body.

Quiet cups like longan, goji, and roasted grains help the mind and body transition from the bright movement of the day to the stillness of the night.

Longan & Goji Berry

Longan is traditionally used to settle the spirit. Goji adds gentle brightness, making this a quiet cup for the end of the day.

Roasted buckwheat is nutty, simple, and caffeine-free. It brings a dry, grounded quality when the body feels puffy or slow from sitting.
