Tea + Tone
Steeped in Gold
Ancient nourishment for the
modern body and soul
As the air turns inward, we gather around a private table to slow down, listen, and rest in seasonal alignment.
Restoring What Has Been Deprived
Constant mental output creates a quiet form of depletion. When the mind is forced to stay on, energy collects upward, leaving the head buzzing and overfilled like a taut balloon, while the physical structure suffers.We feel it in tight stomach muscles, tension knotting through the neck and shoulders, sore lower legs, and a heavy lower back. The body is telling us it has run out of reserves.Tea + Tone offers a gentle, tactile return to balance.Sitting at our table inside a historic Miracle Mile sanctuary, we use warm tea medicine to soothe lung heat and pull excess energy down into the Dantian. Paired with direct acoustic tuning along the meridians, this is a space designed to clear physical stagnation, nourish the soul and body, and restore your system to its natural, grounded baseline.

Gathering I: The Deep Stillness: Fortify & Anchor
Saturday, November 14, 2026
(2:00 PM – 4:00 PM • 4 Seats Max)
Winter Edition I — Solar Term: Beginning of Winter (立冬 / Lidong)
Active Organs: Bladder & Kidneys (Water Element)
As winter settles and nature turns fully inward, the air cools and night lengthens, calling us to gather our vital light, soothe fear, and fortify our deepest energy reserves (Jing).In this seasonal edition, I will be pouring two rare, archival selections of premium quality tea from my private collection.
Opening Seating (2:00 PM): Fushou Lishan High Mountain Oolong (福壽梨山高山烏龍) — Grown at extreme high altitudes, this pristine, lightly oxidized oolong carries a pure Wood and Metal resonance. Served during the Small Intestine hour (1–3 PM), its uplifting floral sweetness feeds the digestive fire, clears mental noise, and brightens perception.Integration Seating (3:00 PM): 2021 Limited Edition "The Spirit of Tea" Ancient Artisan Moonlight White (古樹手工月光白茶) — Hand-harvested from wild ancient tea trees, this 2021 limited archival white tea carries a deep water-element resonance. As we transition into the Bladder Meridian window (3–5 PM), its cooling, expansive sweetness clears the Large Intestine meridian and guides the spirit into winter’s deep quiet.Following our tea seatings and seasonal meridian transmission, we transition into a quiet acoustic soundbath to allow the tea's medicine and resonant frequency to integrate deeply. Intentionally held for a private circle of 4 guests.

Artisanal Nourishment
at the Table
To complement our tea seatings, each gathering features thoughtfully curated seasonal pastries handcrafted locally by Little Bakes by Betty.Rooted in small-batch artisanal baking, these healthy delicate treats are crafted with fresh ingredients (no seed oil, no palm oil) and subtle, seasonal flavor profiles. Designed to offer a gentle, delicious balance without overwhelming the palate, they provide an inviting moment of nourishment as we linger over warm cups.
Direct Energetic Work & Facilitation
Subtle Field Reading: Active sensory work focused on identifying and releasing specific areas of physical and seasonal stagnation.Personalized Resonance: An intimate 4-seat setting that allows the acoustic bowls and tea ceremony to be tailored directly to the participants in the room.Nervous System Integration: Combining classical Chinese organ cosmology with targeted sound frequency for deep physical realignment.
Studio Guidance & Etiquette
Punctuality: Please plan to arrive 5–10 minutes early. Doors close promptly at 2:00 PM to maintain the integrity of the container.Preparation: I recommend wearing comfortable, loose-fitting clothing and avoiding strong perfumes or fragrances to preserve the aromatic space of the tea table.Age Note: Our gatherings are intentionally curated for adults (18+) to preserve an undisturbed, deeply reflective space for all participants.
