Summary

Be guided in a 10-minute Cleansing Breath meditation for more peace, energy and clarity. By request, I play the music a little longer in this meditation, however, the meditation is 10-minutes. Be guided using meditation techniques customized for the Japanese Tea Ceremony as shared in the book, "Tea Life, Tea Mind," by Soshitsu Sen XV. This is a meditation using a breathing technique for purity. You can do this breathing technique when you aren't necessarily in your private meditation space. Do the meditation standing, seating, walking -- whenever you most need to relax. In this week's meditation series you'll be taking your meditation ritual on the road, into your day-to-day life as you explore the ancient art of chado, otherwise known as the Japanese Tea Ceremony. This is Part 3 of a 7-part meditation series of 10-Minute Tea Life, Tea Mind Meditations, Episodes 414-420. As always, all the meditation techniques used in this Meditation Series can be found at www.SipandOm.com. There you'll find an entire library of meditations. While you're there be sure to join the free 100 Day Meditation Quest. Head over to pick up your Meditation Quest Play Book to get started. Music composed by Greg Keller, and also by Christopher Lloyd Clark licensed by RoyaltyFreeMusic.com.
