The Art of Zen Eating & Matcha Meditation
Step into a serene Japanese tatami room in Manhattan for a meditative journey through the way of tea and the art of mindful eating.
We begin with Matcha Meditation, guided by TAKEDA zen—a gentle practice of breathwork, a ceremonial-grade Kyoto matcha offering, and a soothing singing bowl meditation to awaken clarity and inner calm.
Then, through Zen Eating, experience a nourishing five-color meal rooted in traditional Japanese philosophy. Each color—green, red, yellow, black, and white—symbolizes balance between body, mind, and nature. Expect simple, seasonal dishes like:
Green peas & white sesame
Sweet potato with lemon
Pickled radish & carrot
Shiitake mushrooms
Steamed rice with edible leaves or blossoms
This is nourishment as meditation—an invitation to slow down, taste deeply, and connect with the quiet joy of the present moment.
