The delicious and calming blend of chamomile and lavender is the perfect spotlight for this Meet the Blends Monday! Sleep Ease was created in March 2010 and has been one of my favorites ever since! I created this blend out of a desire to have a perfectly balanced soothing chamomile and calming lavender. The ingredients in this delicious blend are very effective at calming and soothing the body and helping to bring back balance through the soothing herbal properties. I love a good night's sleep! But as a mom, sometimes a good night's sleep is just a fairy tale! I created this blend in March 2010 to sip and enjoy to help calm my system and help me drift off to sleep. I love the taste of lavender and the soft warming chamomile, combined with the powerful lemon balm and skullcap, I knew this blend would be my “go-to” night time tea! But not only is it good for floating off to sleep, it is also fantastic for day time nerves! These ingredients are powerful nervine herbs, meaning that they help calm and soothe the nervous system which can actually help with focus! The nervous system is a crucial part of how our bodies function on a daily basis and what better way to support that function than by sipping some soothing tea!
Chamomile makes a pleasant aromatic tea with a fruity flavor, enhanced by sugar or honey. It is often sipped for relief of health problems ranging from toothache to nervousness. Chamomile has also been noted as beneficial for soothing headaches and is a natural relaxing herb known to assist the restless and those suffering from insomnia. In many circles Chamomile is called nighty night tea or sleepy tea on account of its natural properties which promote restfulness and drowsiness. It is also known to assist digestive disorders by settling the stomach and calming the nerves.
Lavender flower is one of the most recognized scents in the world and a key ingredient in my Sleep Ease blend. Lavender flower has been used for centuries for its medicinal properties. It helps in treating migraines, headaches, anxiety, depression, nervous tension and emotional stress while removing nervous exhaustion, indigestion, and restlessness. Lavender is also known for its ability to help the body’s circulation and increases mental activity.
This blend has the added benefit of Lemon balm and Skullcap which are both useful for treating nervous disturbances of sleep and chronic gastrointestinal disorders.
