Inner Armour Tea Ceremony

Harness the Protective Power of Tree Bark with the Inner Armour Tea Ceremony

Welcome to this restorative tea ceremony, designed exclusively for our Inner Armour herbal tea; a fortifying blend of adaptogenic and immune-supporting herbs meticulously crafted to amplify your body's innate resilience and bolster your immune strength. This ritual can be performed whenever you desire to connect with the protective energy of tree bark or customize it to align with your unique intentions and needs.

Step 1: Consecrate Tools

Begin by establishing a serene and comfortable space where you can focus your intentions and connect with the elemental and plant spirits. Prepare your ceremonial space by lighting candles, burning incense, or playing soothing music, creating an atmosphere of tranquility and receptivity. Lay out your tea tools with care, acknowledging their role in this sacred process. Take a moment to consecrate each tool, holding it and setting an intention for its use in the ceremony.

Step 2: Activate Herbs by Invoking the Plant Realm

Scoop a portion of your dried tea blend into a small bowl. Shift your focus to the herbs within the bowl, paying heed to their distinct shapes, colors, and fragrances. Gently run your fingers through the blend, sensing the textures and forms. Close your eyes and connect with the spirit that resides within these herbs. Visualize a warm, golden light flowing from your hands into the herbs, infusing them with your energy and intention.

Step 3: Invoke Intention into the Water

Pour fresh water into your kettle. Hold your hands over the water and visualize it being filled with a bright, protective light.

Bring the water to a boil and pour the freshly boiled water over the herbs in your teapot. Envision the water absorbing the protective properties of the herbs. Allow it to steep for 10-15 minutes.

Step 4: Open the Circle and Activate Your Innate Healing Intelligence

Set up your sacred space where you will perform the ceremony. Light candles, burn incense, and play healing frequency music. Begin a meditation or guided visualization for 10-15 minutes to enter a deep and relaxed state of mind. Close your eyes and take several deep, slow breaths. Visualize a soft, warm light enveloping your body, bringing relaxation and peace. As you breathe, imagine this light gently guiding you deeper into a calm, serene state, shifting from the active, alert beta state into the more relaxed and receptive alpha state, or even deeper into the meditative theta state, where your mind is open to inner guidance and healing.

Step 5: Visualize Your Desired Outcome

Once the tea has steeped, strain it into a cup or mug. Move to a quiet spot where you feel connected to the energy of the forest, or visualize yourself standing beside a mighty tree. Place your hands on its rugged bark, feeling its protective energy. As you sip the tea slowly, savoring each sip, visualize the healing power of the tree bark infusing your body. Imagine the tea creating a protective shield around you, much like the bark of the tree. See the herbs releasing their protective and resilient energy into your body, fortifying your immune system and overall strength. Visualize the plants and nature spirits working harmoniously to protect you from harm and negativity.

Step 6: Divination (Optional)

If you choose to, connect with your guides, your higher self, or the plant realm, and ask for guidance or assistance. Use divination tools such as pendulums or tarot cards to receive messages.

Step 7: Close the Ceremony and Give Thanks

When you finish your tea, take a moment to express gratitude to the spirit of tree bark for its protective and empowering energies. Thank them for sharing their incredible power and granting you strength and resilience. Close the ceremony by extinguishing the candles and thanking any deities or spirits you have called upon.

Allow yourself to fully return to the present moment, taking in your surroundings. Breathe deeply and ground yourself, integrating the experience. Pay close attention to any sensations or emotions that surface, and reflect on the insights or messages that may have revealed themselves to you.
