Time For Tea (Tox)

Don't underestimate the power of herbal tea. These wholesome cuppas pack a very healthy punch... What's not to love about a cup of tea? Furthermore, what's not to love about a brew that can have massive impact on your health? From valerian to chamomile, lemon to lavender, steeping herbs in hot water can make a big difference to your physical and mental wellbeing. Herbal teas can deliver serious health benefits, boosting immunity, reducing anxiety and improving digestion. Even the tea making ritual itself is beneficial. It slows you down, creating a moment of calm. But most people know what you're thinking; that herbal tea tastes like hay or stale pot pourri but not anymore as the demand for herbal teas has grown massively. As a result of this, tea companies have upped their game, producing potent herbal infusions that tastes great. Opt for whole leaf and flower teas because when herbs and flowers are chopped and manhandled they lose their natural flavour. So, swap your mug of builder's for one of these healthy brews and sip your way to glowing skin, a flatter tum and a better night's sleep...
