You might appreciate the ritualistic nature of brewing a mug of your favorite blend.
Take a deep breath and brew yourself a big mug of your chill the eff out tea of choice.
I love how it smells spicy and sweet at the same time.
I don’t have a favorite brandI just buy whatever.
This one is inexpensive and widely available.
It’s very calming and refreshing, like a breath of fresh air.
It’s intensely flavorful with a tart finish that I love.
Traditional Medicinals Organic Ginger Tea
When it comes to stomaching 2020, ginger tea is my go-to.
Stress and anxiety absolutely wreck my G.I.
tract, and ginger always helps.
And since it’s caffeine-free, I can pound it all day and still sleep at night.
Essentially, it’s great for everything.
Sometimes Ill add a teaspoon of molasses or silan (date syrup) to up the sweetness.C.T.
Matcha Love is my favorite matcha, and I have the bowl and the whisk and the whole thing.
It might be my adult version of a security blanket, TBH.
Later in the day I opt for herbal or white teas.
White peach is my favorite.
Somehow, in residency, I accidentally bought a multiple hundreds pack of it off Amazon.
That was just really comforting; it helped us decompress, and helped us survive.
Gold, M.D., M.S.
I enjoy it warm with a little bit of honey or maple syrup.
Pukka Organic Night Time Tea
This is my go-to bedtime tea, as the name might suggest.
So relaxing to sip on.C.T.
