In the realm of self-improvement and spiritual growth, the concept of spiritual bypassing has sparked many debates and controversies. Some argue that promoting positivity without addressing negative emotions is toxic, while others believe that bringing light to the world is essential for growth. Obviously, as a healer with my purpose geared towards celebrating positivity, I encourage the use of tools to improve our mental states, however, in no way do I suggest that we should be bypassing any kind of emotions (including the negative). Actually quite the contrary.

To put it simply, mindful tea drinking begins long before the first sip touches your lips. It commences with the ritual of preparation, where each step is performed with care, presence and intention.
