TEA AND ZEN LIBRARY

About this episode

Dear Friends,

As many of you know, this path of Tea & Zen — and of my life — has been one of long unfolding.

For many years I have shared reflections, poems, teachings, and spoken offerings — born from the deep river of lived experience: thirty-nine years of sobriety, decades of walking through trauma and healing, and a life surrendered ever more fully to the Great Love that carries us all.

Over time, these offerings have grown — scattered across Substack, podcasts, social media, letters, and my heart’s journals. Now, at this season of my life — at 76 — it has become clear to me that it is time to gather this river into its true form:

A living Library of Tea & Zen — a sanctuary of writings, reflections, and presence, to serve those who walk this path now, and those who may come after.

This is not a project of ego or legacy — it is simply the next natural flowering of the work I have been given to offer.

The Library will hold:

Reflections & Letters of the Heart / Poems of Love, Presence, and Silence

Teachings on Healing, Grief, and the Threshold of Life

Spoken Meditations

A growing archive of this life’s stream of teachings It will be open and free to all — a nonprofit sanctuary of the heart.

How You Can Support This Work

Tea & Zen is offered under the umbrella of Meditation Sans Frontières, a registered nonprofit charity

The building of this Library — and the ongoing life of this work — depends on the generosity of those who feel called to support it.

If my writings, reflections, or presence have touched your life, and you would like to help sustain this unfolding offering, your gift — whether one-time or recurring — will help make this Library possible.

Your support will directly help with:

→ Building and hosting the new Library website

→ Organizing and archiving a lifetime of writings and teachings

→ Supporting me to continue offering this work freely and sustainably

To Support the Work:

From my heart to yours — thank you for walking this path with me.

Together, we keep the river flowing.

With love and deep gratitude,
