Medicinal Cuisine evolved through cumulative experience handed down over centuries in China. It is based on the ancient eastern wisdom of maintaining health by balancing energy flow – qui – and living in harmony with Mother Nature. You don’t need to use special Chinese herbs nor special techniques. Eri will introduce you to some practical ways to apply this traditional wisdom in Japanese Way to modern life in the United States. In the second part of workshop you will enjoy a small lunch that represents the Five Elements as an introduction to the Chinese Medicinal Cuisine. Eri will explain the principles of traditional medical cuisine, how they relate to individual body types, and how to apply the principles to your everyday meals. The small-bite lunch will nourish your body and give you an idea of what the Chinese Medicinal Cuisine method in the Japanese Way tastes like. Enjoy delicious food and take home a little wisdom from our eastern ancestors!

Introduction to Tea Ceremony
|
In the 16th Century three Japanese masters developed a special Way of Tea as a way of cultivating focus, respect and mindfulness. The Way of Tea acts these values out in a pleasant drama in which you are one of the actors. In the first part of the workshop you will learn how to be a guest in a casual tea ceremony setting and will play that role as Yufuko serves you tea. You will learn how to take the drama of appreciation and respect into your everyday life so that whether you are greeting a friend or ordering a cappuccino, you are practicing in a Japanese wisdom of mindfulness!
