Higher Tea: A Sip of Inspiration

“Good intention clothes itself with sudden power.”  -Ralph Waldo Emerson

Today I met with a dynamic group of women to discuss the formation of a Higher Tea Circle at a Unity Church in southwest Florida. We began our gathering by holding hands and blessing the moment and our intention. The “electriciTea” that flowed around that sacred gathering was so intense, that we literally pulsated with spiritual power.

In my book, “Higher Tea: The Essence of Joy,” I define “higher tea” as tea with a spiritual or divine purpose. I also shared my experience in creating a dynamic women’s program at the Unity Church of Naples. This awesome group has gathered monthly for tea and fellowship during the season since November, 2000. It continues to provide women with the “opportuniTea” to create “communiTea,” to join with others of like mind to learn, serve and support one another, and to just have fun.

This program is so successful, that I am compelled to compile the materials into an efficient, effective program guide that can be implemented by any spiritual, social or service group. As I offer my experience, expertise and energy to assist this new group, they are assisting me in the finalization of program materials. Our intention, combined with the synergy that is being generated from this symbiotic relationship, is creating the quantum shift needed to propel us closer to our vision.  “Where two or three are gathered” magic happens.

As we sipped iced tea this morning, we were filled with excitement and enthusiasm at the infinite “possibiliTeas.” With focused intent, we put our heads and hearts together and created a concrete plan of action to implement this amazing “activiTea.” We all left, knowing that we are part of something miraculous and mysterious, inspired and guided by a Higher Power. We have no doubt that the ideas that started to steep within us today will brew a marvelous blend of joy and love that will uplift all who participate.
