What you'll do

Looking for fun indoor activities that will keep you warm? Join Vishakha to learn how to make tea blends this winter!

In this live online class, Vishakha will share her collection of organic loose leaf herbs sourced from registered Australian suppliers which you can smell and get a sense of as she explains each herb's properties. Some are good for digestion, combat anxiety or depression, benefit women's health and much more!

This class on herbal tea will cover:

What is herbal tea?
How much is good enough?
Drink hot or cold?
Herbal teas for bath
Sweetening
Blending
Understand the properties of various herbs
Touch, feel, smell, sense and taste 8 to 10 loose leaf herbal teas

You will receive samples of 8 to 10 loose leaf herbs in your kit. While discussing each herb, you will be making the loose-leaf herbal tea of that particular herb so as to be able to touch, feel, smell, sense and taste that herb. The workshop will cover over a dozen of herbs so you will have a date with numerous herbs in one evening!

After you would have understood the herbs and tasted them, you will blend your favourite herbs together and make a blend of your choice. Your teacher will share the recipes/ingredients for the following blends.

Choose to make one of the below:
1. Stay Immune - Anti flu, cold, fever, headache
2. Happy Tonsils - Anti cough
3. Stay Young - Anti aging
4. Sleep Well - Anti anxiety
5. Healthy Mouth - Anti ulcer
6. Women's Health - Anti period pain
7. Men's Health - Anti dysfunction
8. Detox blend - Anti toxins
9. Weight Loss - Anti obesity
10. Iron Power - Anti anemia
11. Happy Heart - Anti cholesterol
12. Bon Voyage - Anti travel sickness

At the end of the class, you can enjoy the refreshing herbal tea blend that you made.

There will be additional jars and gift sets available (see add-ons with this listing), should you wish to get the loose-leaf sample teas or more choices of herbal blends for you!

So let's drink herbal tea, keep warm this winter, and stay healthy!

I have always had that intuitive urge to 'create' something with a purpose: a new vegetarian recipe, a cake that would still be calorie-friendly, a soap that would nourish my skin with essential oils, a paining that would tell a story of my childhood, a candle that would smell divine?

By day, I am a fulltime ICT Professional helping product teams build great software applications that deliver an awesome User experience. In my moonlight hours and occasionally on weekends, I enjoy this experience of facilitating crafts workshops at my adorable apartment thereby follow my own passion (thank God I found a way), do what I love (or else no point yea), exercise my entrepreneurial skills (or at least I would think so), stay emotionally healthy (this one is real), meet new people (when Sydney reportedly is world's 3rd worst city to make new friends), and do my bit of promoting mental health.

In my journey of hosting the picnics, cooking, baking, fitness and crafts experiences in Sydney, I have come across a range of creative people, many of whom discovered things to be a fun hobby and some who have taken it further and started selling stuff online.

My pursuit of the little joys of life continues as I look forward to share these experiences with you!
