Chamomile

For unwinding the day without forcing it

Some things don’t need to be solved.
They need to be softened.

Tea as a Way of Unwinding

This is not a tea that pushes.

It doesn’t energize.
It doesn’t sedate.

It creates space.

A cup to take the edge off the body, so the mind doesn’t have to work so hard.

Best in the evening,
or anytime the day feels like too much.

What You May Notice

With regular use, chamomile gently supports:

• a slower, steadier breath

• a softening in the chest and shoulders

• less urgency in the mind

• a quieter transition into rest

Not dramatic.
Not immediate.

Just a steady return.

How to Prepare

• 1–2 teaspoons dried chamomile flowers (or 1 tea bag)

• hot water (just off boil)

• steep 5–7 minutes

Let it sit a little longer than you think.

The strength builds slowly
and that’s the point.

🌿 Family: “Warm hands” let little ones hold the cup (cooled) and feel the warmth together
🌿 Daily Life: a gentle reset after dinner instead of reaching for a screen
🌿 Virtual: sip between meetings, no multitasking, even for one minute

Best Time to Steep

• early evening

• after dinner

• before bed

• or anytime the nervous system feels “on edge”

🌼 A Note from the Bluff

Chamomile is not a fix.

It’s a signal.

A quiet message to the body:

you can come down now

Best Experienced Outdoors

If you can, step outside.

Even for a moment.

Stand where the air moves.
Let the cup warm your hands.

Notice what is still holding the day
and what has already let go.

Stay a moment longer.
