Sleepyhead Blend
Sleepyhead Blend
Created from a mixture of chamomile, valerian root, and lavender, this tea blend brings ease and comfort to help you drift into slumber. Caffeine free.
Chamomile (matricaria chamomilla) is the most popular herb for reducing stress and calming the mind before bed. Research has shown that chamomile binds to the same receptors as Benzodiazepine in the GABA receptor complex, an integral part of the central nervous system.
Valerian root (valeriana officinalis) improves sleep, reduces anxiety, and contains low levels of GABA, the chemical responsible for regulating nerve impulses in the brain, which has sedative effects when increased in the body.
Lavender (lavandula angustifolia) is effective at combating insomnia, anxiety, and overall improves sleep patterns and functions.
Directions for use: Using your favorite mug, place 2 teaspoons of your tea blend in a reusable tea bag. Steep for 3-5 minutes and enjoy plain or with a drizzle of honey. Each serving of loose leaf tea can be reused up to 3 times.
