Returning to the Waters:
A Tea Meditation
with Eszter Toth
Saturday, May 2nd
11-12:30pm
Are you feeling the intensity of this year’s fire, or noticing how much has been
moving beneath the surface?
As the month of the Yang Water Dragon comes to a close, this tea meditation offers a space to slow down, cool, and listen. In the language of BaZi—the Chinese system of elemental energetics—Yang Water carries the qualities of the ocean: fluid, intuitive, and deeply reflective, while the Dragon stirs movement, vision, and transformation.
Participants will be gently introduced to these elemental themes, offering a lens to reflect on the past month of April—what has shifted, what has surfaced, and what is ready to settle. The ceremony will then move into silence. Through a guided tea practice, guests are invited to sit in stillness, allowing the calming nature of water to balance the heightened fire energy of the year.
This workshop is for anyone seeking a moment of pause, reflection, and reconnection—with themselves, with the present moment, and with the subtle language of tea.
No prior experience with tea or BaZi is needed. All are welcome.

Eszter Tóth is a Hungarian-born, New York–based tea practitioner. Her connection to tea began early in life, but it was later rediscovered through a deeper personal journey that evolved into a dedicated daily practice. Her path led her to China, where she studied tea and traveled through the tea regions of Yunnan, deepening her understanding of tea as both ritual and living tradition. She is one of the founders of Teagather, a late-night teahouse in Chelsea, created to share tea in a more intimate, communal setting—where people can slow down, connect, and experience the quiet depth of tea together. subtle language of tea.
