Through the ritualistic sequence of the tea ceremony, we learn to let go of our thoughts and pay attention to our senses, and ultimately to approach daily life with a similar attitude of care and mindfulness.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-13901\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2822-590x787.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"779\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2822-590x787.jpg 590w, https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2822-193x257.jpg 193w, https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2822-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2822-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2822-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2822-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2822-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to our regular practice at the beautiful \u8336\u5ba4, Fujimura-sensei was also so kind to take us on various cultural excursions, such as a plum blossom night light-up at Kitano Tenman-gu, seeing the sunrise at Ise Jingu, morning and night meditations, and attending an \u304a\u8336\u4f1a at Heian Jingu while wearing kimono.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Through this CIP, I gained a much deeper understanding of Japanese life and culture and made so many wonderful memories. I am very grateful that I have been able to learn from Fujimura-sensei and really don\u2019t think I could\u2019ve chosen a better CIP! I would recommend it to anyone, particularly if you are interested in traditional arts and philosophy. The only consideration is that because there&#8217;s a lot of difficult vocab, it\u2019ll be helpful if you\u2019re fairly proficient in Japanese, especially listening-wise.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-13846\" style=\"color: #333333; font-style: normal; margin-top: 0.4em;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_3866-590x590.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"584\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_3866-590x590.jpg 590w, https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_3866-193x193.jpg 193w, https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_3866-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_3866-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_3866-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_3866-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_3866.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Through my CIP, I had the wonderful opportunity to learn the art of \u8336\u9053 (tea ceremony) from Fujimura-sensei, wh &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/2024\/04\/11\/larissa-barth-%e8%8c%b6%e9%81%93-tea-ceremony\">\u7d9a\u304d\u3092\u8aad\u3080 <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":652,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_locale":"ja","_original_post":"https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/?p=13842"},"categories":[36,177,8],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13842"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/652"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13842"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13842\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13903,"href":"https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13842\/revisions\/13903"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13842"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13842"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kcjs.jp\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13842"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
