House of Leyli is a lifestyle brand that cultivates mindfulness rituals rooted in Persian culture.
Our beginnings
Started in 2022, we developed the first-ever Persian tea meditation—a new concept that integrates culture and spirituality through the medium of tea. Today, we consciously craft meditative experiences and seasonal tea collections that unite the soul with the eloquence of Persian poetry and the warmth of a thoughtful tea ritual. We illuminate a path to mindfulness for every journey.
Meet Hediya: Her journey and vision
Growing up, I cherished moments of Persian tea and poetry with my grandmother. Over the past decade, I’ve explored contemplative traditions that led me back to my own inner sense of home—and inspired me to develop the first-ever Persian tea meditation, a new ritual integrating culture and spirituality through tea.
Inspired by this, I initiated tea nights where people could share their ancestral practices and stories, fostering connections that encouraged self-discovery and empathy. Thus, House of Leyli was born, a haven for people to connect with themselves and others.
Certified as a mindfulness instructor and in Mental Health First Aid, I'm an MBA graduate of NYU Stern, a Global Shaper with the World Economic Forum, and a dedicated consultant leading human-centered transformation across Fortune 500 companies. I'm passionate in advocating mindfulness and storytelling for fostering cross-cultural understanding and dialogue.
