Chamomile

For unwinding the day without forcing it

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

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.
