Welcome to Teatime
Mortality & Tea is a warm, is intentional gathering centered around shared tea and honest conversation about death. Through guided prompts, quiet writing time, and optional sharing, participants are invited to reflect on mortality, last wishes, and legacy in a supportive circle.
This gathering gently introduces decolonizing death, reclaiming choice, voice, and relationship to death outside of fear, avoidance, and institutional pressure. It is a space to begin naming end-of-life care preferences, burial wishes, and what truly matters, while you are still living.
What to expect: An abundance of soothing herbal teas in a cushy atmosphere as we gather in circle to discuss, write, laugh, and interact with topics of end-of-life planning. To face these topics alone is often what people are left to do. however, if we come together in community to hold space for one another, learn from each other, and share our hearts. The inevitable doesn’t feel so lonely and abstract. When we can conceptualize, name and vocalize our thoughts and wishes around dying this allows for us to reshape our approach to death, life, and grief. You will receive a packet of journal prompts, mini zines, and the opportunity for an after-care meeting with me to ground down any lingering anticipations.
This is not a legal or medical appointment, but a calm, community-rooted place to start. Come sip tea, sit in circle, and take the first steps toward a more intentional relationship with death, one grounded in care, clarity, and love.
This service is an intimate setting and can be booked for families, circle groups, and care facilities.
Please note: This is $40 per participant. If your event is not local to Santa Cruz, San Jose, San Fransico, Fresno CA. Travel arrangements can be made. or be held via zoom.
