Mindfullness and Ritual.
The ritual of chai binds communities together.
Chai holds rich, cutural history heavily rooted in Ancient Ayurvedic traditions. It was originally a herbal brew used for medicinal purposes, referred to as ‘Kadha’.
In India, chai is symbolic of hospitality and friendship. Culturally, it brings people together and creates a sense of community. Mindfullness can become another part integrated into your morning when making a cup of chai. It can help slow us down, breathe and appreciate the current moment, letting the spices guide a sense of calm.
Similar to coffee culture in Australia. You meet a friend for coffee, Talk with people waiting around you.
It becomes a conversation starter.
