Jaanus Leplaan oli pärast keskkooli maailmarändur, kes tahtis kõike ise näha ja kogeda. Ta võttis eesmärgi teha maailmale tiir peale ning nõnda viisid seiklused ja töökohad teda USA-st Austraaliani, Jaapanist Eestini. 2018. aastal läks ta aga Taiwani teekooli õppima, kust leidis valdkonna, millega soovib end siduda. Nii elab ja töötab Jaanus neljandat aastat samas kogukonnas ning teenib leiba teeteemalise ajakirja Global Tea Hut fotograafina. Kuigi reisid on Jaanusele pakkunud rohkelt seiklusi, siis on just tee see, millest ta räägib kõige kaasahaaravamalt ja põnevamalt. Lapsepõlvest maal ning õpingutest pealinnas Mitmekülgsetest elu-, töö- ja reisikogemustest USA-st Austraaliani ning Eestist Taiwanini Kuidas ta leidis teema, millega tahab olla seotud ning millele pühendada oma elu Põhjalikult teest – räägime nii ajaloost, arengust kui tänapäevast Elavast teest ning kuidas see on Taiwanil seotud nii Jaapani kui Hiinaga Kuidas kasvatada ja kokku kasvatada kogukondi Mida on meil õppida Taiwanilt?

Wu De joins Mary Beth to talk about tea…how infusing water with the leaves of camellia sinensis can be a ritual of reverence and mindfulness and how it can connect us to our natural environment. Wu De is the Zen name of Aaron Fisher, a philosopher and writer from Ohio, now based in Taiwan, who has dedicated his life to the study of Zen and tea. He's the founder of the Global Tea Hut, a community of tea enthusiasts and he's the author of the book The Way of Tea.
What is going on, from a spiritual perspective, when people throw stones from glass houses? Without personal judgement, Julie muses on what it is that gives us a sense of entitlement or superiority that leads us to act upon our judgements in the on-line realm and on social media? There is an agenda that is seeking to divide us right now and Julie reminds us that we are multidimensional beings. Each of us has been many things in many places! This is why the spiritual truth of treating others as you hope to be treated yourself runs true. The policing of comments and content has a dark energy and the notions of right or wrong, valid or invalid are human constructs with no relationship to divinity and no relevance in a multiverse containing billions of lifeforms. We are all needed, and everyone that you meet is an aspect of 'god' energy. If you edit them, you may be missing something. So, how can we use social media as a tool for good? And how can we learn to listen to and even respect those whose opinions are different to our own? Even if those views feel treacherous, dangerous or downright threatening? The more mature you become the more you understand you know nothing. The most enlightened way to be is nonjudgemental, accepting and loving of each life form. Even if they are very different than you are. For us to get caught into ‘isms, boxes or attitudes of how people should think or feel is not celebrating diversity. It is not an openness.

On this Episode, number 61, of the “Just Bein’ Honest” Podcast, our guest shares us that the secret to longevity lies in our wellness threshold, and that to live a healthy life we need to get to know ourselves first! Owner and founder Colin Hudon developed Living Tea through his lifelong immersion in Tea and Tao. As an herbalist, acupuncturist, and practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine, he discovered through the Tea ceremony a means of sharing the extraordinary depth of these Oriental Traditions in the West. In Taoist herbalism, Tea is considered a "shen" or spirit tonic through its ability to calm the mind, open the heart, remove energetic stagnation and connect us with Nature. However, the western world has learned of Tea only as a beverage grown from small bushes on plantations, rather than large, old-growth trees in wild forests containing such powerful properties. With a strong wish to learn more about formal Tea ceremony and the traditions from which the Tea ceremony emerged, Colin travelled to Asia in 2010 in "search of Tea." After many months of travel, he discovered a living tradition (Global Tea Hut) and teamaster in Taiwan. Following the cultivation and craft of Cha Tao, he sought to offer Tea to others as a form of moving meditation and living art. Thousands of tea ceremonies later, Living Tea continues to share this way, these old-growth trees and this ancient tradition with you. —————————— Colin Hudon of Living Tea, WOW, I am blown away! I think that the greatest takeaway from this talk was Colin’s statement that Eastern practices - such as the art of tea - is the antidote to Western stresses. Oh, and one of my favorites is when he said, “Anything coffee can do, TEA can do better!” - WORD!!! And if I could plant anything within your head and your heart it would be that ever so powerful statement of, “The more we put into it, the more we get out of it”. Yes, YES!!! Be present in that moment right there. I hope you all got a lot of value out of this episode today, and thank you so much for hanging out with me.

The latest tea arrived yesterday from Global Tea Hut and I was so happy to steep it this morning. A shou puerh from the late ‘90’s - as old as my children! - and so delicious, bright red in the sunshine, and in my beautiful Jack Troy teabowl the rich tea reflected fast moving clouds.
“Nature is always speaking to us and tea helps us understand what she’s saying” Get enlightened by this thoughtful conversation between Nathalie and WudDe Tea Master from Global Tea Hut. Along with an in-depth discussion about tea's effects, brewing methods, and advice for beginners getting into tea, we hear a deep conversation about nature. Are we losing our ability to communicate non-verbally in the present day? Can tea help us change that and learn from the world around us? WuDe also shares information about courses taking place at Tea Sage Hut in Taiwan, what it's like being a part of Global Tea Hut, and how you can get involved.

Global Tea Hut's new tea is best, they write, steeped right in the bowl. The tiny green leaves were tender enough to eat.
Liu An tea from Global Tea Hut woke us up. In the garden, the summer colors are emerging.
Hola Hombres & Chicas! It was a real treat to be back behind the podcast mics and a cup of tea with Sam Gibbs from Global Tea Hut after a few months off on my own global travels. I recently biked from Vancouver BC to Los Angeles before flying to Mexico and Sam had recently returned from his work at Global Tea Hut in Taiwan and by fortuitous timing we were both in Mangawhai, NZ before Sam flew back and able to share a cuppa, or 10... I was really captivated by the art of Tea after listening to Sam's teacher, Tea master and Zen monk Wu De, on the Rich Roll podcast. I even went so far as to do an exhibit of art work inspired the philosophy and practice of drinking tea. So I was super excited when our mutual friend and yogi, Nick Robson, put Sam and I in touch. Sam was generous enough to take me through a tea ceremony which was beyond words but involved Sam creating a beautiful Chashitsu/tea table setting, 10 cups or so of tea steeped and poured to perfection (or an attempt of), an hour or so of silent meditation with only nature and eastern music playing which combined in a transformative experience which I goes beyond words but I will try to describe as a deep hypnotic and meditative experience that seemed to reveal the mysteries of the world and deep inner peace. My first thoughts were that everyone must experience this and there's no way I can drink this much tea without needing to take a piss mid ceremony. I hope you DOUG the podcast as much as I did and get to experience the teachings of tea and ceremony with Sam and Wu De this summer at Wanderlust on the 2nd-5th of Feb or on their tour of NZ in March. And make sure to sign up to the Global Tea Hut magazine for what Sam guarantees me as the best mail you will receive every month full of insights on tea, zen and your own samples of the finest teas which support Global Tea Hut in building their new tea centre and supplying tea around the world which is tea-riffic. Think less, experience more tea/zen, Yours happily, :Doug
Tea Master Wude of Global Tea Hut shares on how tea can create space for peace.
“If you don’t have the ability to celebrate what you have now, nothing you get—and I mean nothing; nothing material, nothing experiential, no amount information, no amount of experience, no amount of material possessions—is going to teach you how to celebrate.”WuDeToday my friend WuDe returns to the show to drop some mad Zen Buddhist wisdom.In case you missed it, I strongly encourage you to dial up our first conversation. RRP #87: Art & The Importance of Living Tea is a fascinating deep dive into the world, history, and ancient teachings of tea as a means to glean broader truths about health, healing, community, the environment, and oneness – the universal interconnectedness of everything.During that initial conversation, we barely scratched the surface with respect to the extensive knowledge and wisdom brimming from WuDe's soul. So when he returned for recent visit to Los Angeles, I jumped on the chance to have him back on the show. A rare opportunity to more fully mine the philosophy and the traditions of Zen Buddhism to help us better navigate our modern lives.Born in the United States as Aaron Daniel Fisher, Wude was drawn to the East from a very early age. After studying philosophy in college, he traveled the world and ultimately settled in Taiwan, where he has since become a Buddhist monk. A tea master. And the founder of Global Tea Hut– a school and center that harvests tea, educates all comers on the traditions surrounding tea, and welcomes people from all over the world to study the Dao of Tea as a method of spiritual cultivation.I said it in reference to our first conversation. I'll say it again.This just might be the most fascinating and soul expanding conversation you will hear all week.I sincerely hope you enjoy the conversation.Peace + Plants,Listen & Subscribe on iTunes | Soundcloud | Stitcher | TuneInProduction, music & sound design by Tyler Piatt.

Today we delve into an entirely new world. The world of tea.I can hear you now: Tea?? Really? Why should I care about tea? I've been enjoying the podcast a lot lately, Rich. But I'm not sure about this…I think you might have lost the thread this week. A couple years ago I would have probably said the same thing. I don't feel that way anymore. So if you are thinking of skipping this episode because on the surface it doesn't sound like something you are interested in, reconsider. Because — and as I always say — contempt prior to investigation imprisons one to everlasting ignorance.WuDe.Born in the United States as Aaron Daniel Fisher, Wude was drawn to the East from a very early age. After studying philosophy in college, he travelled the world and ultimately settled in Taiwan, where he has since become a Buddhist monk – steeped in the sutras and wisdom of that tradition – as well as a tea master – a vituoso of not just the living tradition of harvesting tea, but the living tradition of what tea means in a sort of meta sense – why it’s important and why we should care about it.Tea as medicine. Tea as healing. Tea as life.Tea Practice as Zen.The easiest way to put it is that WuDe comes from this idea that tea is a universal living, breathing thing that unifies us all — the tree of life.Think of tea as a metaphor. A foundational concept around which to structure a set of ancient teachings, principles, knowledge and wisdom to glean a broader truth about health, healing, community, the environment, life, life’s meaning and the unifying oneness – or undeniable interconnectedness of everythingIn Taiwan WuDe founded and runs Global Tea Hut– a school and center devoted to the education and preservation of the ancient tradition of harvesting living tea and welcomes people from all over the world to come study and practice tea preparation, meditation, tea history, tea crafting, the sutras of tea and its relevance in society, and how to cultivate the Dao of Tea as a method of spiritual expansion.I realize today's guest and these topics may be slightly off your personal reservation. That's cool – it was for me initially as well. All I ask is that you set aside whatever preconceived notions you may be harboring and enter this episode with an open mind. Do that, and I assure you will come out the other side with not only a new and informed view on the import of tea, but a greater understanding of Zen. An expanded perspective on consciousness. And a heightened awareness of the oneness that unites us all.WuDe spills over with crazy mad wisdom that more than merits your attention and contemplation.I promise this just might be the most fascinating conversation you will hear all week.I sincerely hope you enjoy the show.
