@thetealetter: Tea is more than a beverage—it’s a way of being. That way of being is described in the four principles of the Japanese Way of Tea: WA KEI SEI JAKU. Harmony, respect, purity, and tranquility. In this reel, I briefly introduce each and my understanding of each principle. From here, I’ll go through them individually in greater detail, explaining what they mean to me and how I try to live out these ideals in my daily life. #japan #tea #culture #teaceremony
