You belong here.

Let’s gather

to Commune with Nature,
Find Deeper Meaning, and
Remember Why We’re Here

I’m so glad you are here.

If you’re anything like me, you were raised by people who’d long forgotten that the Earth is our home. Instead, they instilled in you a sense of belonging and purpose that was tied to religion, culture, and societal demands. 

But what you really needed was something deeper – the original blessing that elders have lovingly whispered into babies’ ears for all of our earth-honoring history

You have the right to be, and to be all that you can be.

If, like me, this message didn’t reach your ears at birth, you’ve spent your life looking for what’s been missing, when the truth is, it’s been under your feet all along.

You are a child of the Earth.

You are not a mistake.

You have such a sacred purpose here.


When we remember these essential truths, we’re finally able to surrender into the deeper meaning of life…

Not a sense of meaning connected to your job or your relationship status, but rather one that is anchored into the essence of who you truly are. 

The key is this

When we commune with Nature

we find deeper meaning,

and remember why we’re here.

All of you is welcome here, truly.

Drinking Tea in Ritual is How I Remember

I’ve created a class with everything you need to know in order to start connecting with Tea as a guide to remembrance. Sign up to receive a simple ritual that you can begin today.

Hi Sweet Love…

I’m Mariana

Put quite simply, I am a woman who sees life where others don’t, and teach other Humans to do the same. I have a deep relationship with Nature, and it’s from walking this path through the forest of Life that I finally found my sense of belonging.

As a woman raised in three cultures, I spent a lot of my youth trying to figure out how to fit in, and the only thing I learned was how to chameleon myself to belong. It really wasn’t that great of a solution, and left me with questions that you might relate to:

Where am I from?
Why am I here?
Is there any place that I can belong?

Here’s what I now know…

We’re from the Earth. We’re here to care for the Earth, and yes…

We belong, we belong, we so deeply, freakin’ belong.

MY WORK IS TO HELP YOU SEE THIS WORLD AS ALIVE, TO HELP YOU REMEMBER THAT YOU ARE A GUARDIAN OF THE EARTH, AND TO TEACH YOU HOW TO RECLAIM THAT PURPOSE IN YOUR LIFE.

FOR THE LOVE…

“SYOTP opened the doorway for me to slow down, soften and remember. The reverence in which Mariana holds this container and her connection with Tea is deep medicine for us all as we reconnect to our own hearts, ceremony, and Mother Earth. For me, this was a journey home to Soul."

– Kylie M.

"All of Mariana’s offerings have inspired me to be authentic. Drop the BS of how I’m ‘supposed’ to express and sink into who I truly am. It’s helped me to discern where I want to place my energy and that feels so sweet in my body.”

– Alyssa V.

“This experience has left me feeling a strong sense of trust. I feel like everything happened in this divine way for Tea to come into my life. It was everything I needed at this moment in time. What I'm taking with me the most is a revived reverence for nature”

– Rachel B.
