Stress Relief (Herbal Mix)

Description

Calming herbs to fight stress and anxiety. They play important roles as tonics and adaptogens (natural substances that may help your body “adapt” to stress as well as function more normally) for nervous and adrenal health. These herbs have long traditions of optimizing stress management habits without having a sedative effect, regulating cortisol in the body, and helping it defend against its harmful effects, which in turn play an important role in overall health.

Herbal Tea Brewing Instructions

• Hot Brew

1. Heat the water to just the point when it starts to boil.
2. Add 1 teaspoon of loose tea, to a tea infuser or tea bag, for 180ml – 240ml of water.
3. Pour the heated water (right off the boil) over the tea, cover your cup, and steep for 7-10 minutes or longer.
4. Add honey or stevia for sweetness, if desired. 

• Cold Brew

A cold infusion delivers flavours that are sweeter, smoother, more complex, and can be made in a number of different ways.

1. The Fast Way (Best For Herbal Tea)
   Follow the steps as shown in the “Hot Brew“, but use less water, and perhaps even more tea, in order to produce tea concentrate.
   Strain and pour over ice or cold water.
2. Overnight Ice Tea
   Add 1-2 teaspoons of loose tea to a tea infuser or tea bag, for every 200ml – 250ml of water. Pour room-temperature water over the tea, stir, cover, and refrigerate for 6 to 12 hours.
