Empty your cup

In the Zen tradition there is a concept called shoshin, or “beginner’s mind“. It suggests that we should come to every situation with an empty cup, ready to receive. If our cup is full, then we have no place to put what is coming to us. Emptying our cup, we release our expectation and our sense of “knowing” allowing us to see what it is directly in front of us. This sensibility helps us remove our tendency to interject our ego into a situation, and also deflects our tendency to interject control…… As a tea blender I blend during the full moon however during eclipses I pause and meditate! It renews my energy as well as gives me clarity!
Many Blessings to you all#teacoup #ayurvedicteaologist #fullmoon #zen#meditate#eclipse #energy#quote
