Uplifting Tea

 Holy Basil, Peppermint, Sage and Licorice root or Lemon Bergamot

Lift your spirits and refresh your senses with our invigorating Uplifting Tea Blend. This unique concoction is designed to uplift your mood, sharpen your focus, and bring a renewed sense of well-being to your day.

Holy Basil (Tulsi): Revered for its adaptogenic qualities, it helps promote calm, reduce stress, and support overall well-being. Traditionally used to enhance resilience and mental clarity.

Peppermint: Offers bright, awakening notes and is widely used to soothe digestive discomfort, alleviate headaches, and provide a refreshing, energizing sensation.

Sage: Known for its cleansing properties and earthy aroma, sage has been traditionally used to support cognitive function, ease sore throats, and provide antioxidant benefits.

Licorice Root: Provides a touch of natural sweetness to balance and enhance the blend. It's also traditionally valued for its soothing effects on the digestive and respiratory systems, and for its potential to boost energy.

Lemon Bergamot:  Bergamot is widely celebrated in aromatherapy for its ability to uplift the mood. Its bright, citrusy scent is believed to stimulate the brain's limbic system, which can trigger the release of neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, often referred to as "feel-good" chemicals. The aroma of bergamot is often described as calming and relaxing. It can help reduce feelings of stress, anxiety, and fatigue. This makes it a great herb to use in a tea blend for an uplifting and relaxing effect. By calming the mind and reducing stress, bergamot can help enhance focus and concentration. It's often used to promote a sense of alertness and energy without the stimulating effects of caffeine.

Steep approximately 1-2 teaspoons of tea per 8 oz. of water for 5-7 minutes. May add lemon or honey to sweeten.
