All our daily acts can become magical when we start researching and questioning the whole circle a person, a product or object went through before it came in touch with your body, hands, nose, mouth, tongue and ears. I create gatherings where reconnecting with each other, our bodies and the things we put in our bodies are central. What we put inside our bodies is an intimate act, it becomes part of us.

A main focus became tea. Meeting different tea ceremonies done by various tea  and co-creating with various tea traders and specialist gatherings to awaken our senses, enjoy and nourish our precious insides. I started a place exactly on the border between Netherlands and Germany where I host various gatherings for researching and experiencing.

For me the location and landscape always plays a big roll in the products that are eaten and the objects that are used. I take groups on walks into the landscape to interact with what is there. Like a small ceremony to connect to something that is bigger then just ourselves. What is that for you? Shall we invite the outer landscapes to enter our inner landscapes? Shall we share about the borders we experience when we interact with our inside and outside world? How can some borders become more solid and some borders more fluid?

I am looking forward to meet you on a special location to make time to slow down with a special group of people… where I invited you for a moment of embodied tea drinking …. and a walk where we allow to awaken our voices and bodies to open up in the landscape….www.evavanderzand.com and www.themoraine.org
