A wind-down tea ritual
One of my favorite evening habits is a warm cup of herbal tea about an hour before bed. It's less about the tea itself and more about the ritual: the pause, the warmth in your hands, the signal to your body that the day is closing.
Lovely caffeine-free choices include:
- chamomile, gentle and floral
- lemon balm, bright and lemony
- peppermint, refreshing after a big dinner
- rooibos, naturally sweet
Tonight, brew a cup, sit somewhere comfortable and sip it slowly, no screen. If you're pregnant, nursing or take medication, check with your doctor or practitioner about which herbs are right for you.
