It's not easy to get back on your feet and start the year off on the right foot after the holiday season. Stress, existential doubts, demotivation, chronic fatigue, and chaotic nights: fortunately, our herbal teas are your allies for finding calm and serenity. Discover our tips to avoid feeling down in January.
This article guides you through the benefits of relaxing herbal teas and how to incorporate them into your routine to start the year feeling good.
The beginning of the year often feels like an emotional rollercoaster: after the euphoria of the holidays, New Year's Eve, and reunions, comes nothingness! It must be said that the cold and grayness of January doesn't necessarily help you move forward... It's clearly the time when you don't want to do anything, except take refuge under a duvet or a blanket and hope for better days.
On the stomach side, it's also a bit of a mess: we're torn between craving cookies, pancakes and hot chocolate to comfort ourselves and at the same time, we dream of calming things down to digest the excesses of the end of the year .
And then there's also this whole issue of good resolutions (just to add another layer) that puts pressure on us and makes us think too much (because even if we don't care, we can't help but think about what we could do better this year ). Not to mention work, where we often go back to with a backward glance.
To avoid turning January into a never-ending tunnel, treat yourself! To bring some pep back into your life, start the day with a Lemon Tea and end it with a thyme-eucalyptus-lemon Après-Ski infusion . And in between, a little Boost and Me infusion and you should already find some semblance of energy!
When your thoughts are racing, the sun is out, and your spirits are low, the first thing you need to do is find a refuge! It could be your living room, your bedroom, the local cafe, or a friend's apartment. The important thing is to feel good.
Once you've identified your ideal burrow, establish simple little rituals that will do you the world of good. Like Wednesday afternoon tea with a delicious spiced chai tea or Saturday's chamomile break with the girls. The goal is simply to savor the moment, to think about nothing, and to simply find a little time for yourself.
One of the first things you can do to calm things down and soothe your body and mind is to cut out stimulating drinks. No more sodas, coffee , and tea; opt instead for herbal teas or a good Rooibos-Blackcurrant (guaranteed caffeine-free!).
Peaks of stress, moments of doubt or vagueness: we all experience them, but it is absolutely essential to learn to tame them. And certain plants can help you. We think for example of verbena , lemon balm or even linden or lavender. These plants, known for their anti-stress properties, will bring the pressure down alone or in a bouquet like in the Relax et Moi infusion. This delicate blend of linden, chamomile and orange petals is a true ally of serenity.
Relaxing herbal teasAfter the holidays, it also happens that we lose track of sleep a little. After a few days of vacation, some boozy evenings, and nights that are much, much too short, don't hesitate to rely on plants to reset the clock.
Thanks to their calming and soothing properties, they will not only help you fall asleep but also help you sleep soundly . And you're in luck, because there are a multitude of plants capable of accompanying you into the arms of Morpheus.
Depending on your tastes or your desires of the moment, you can sip a lovely blend of lemon balm, lemon, chamomile or trust a great classic: verbena ... In both cases, we want to hear you snore until a better tomorrow!
