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.
