Femme Organics Chamomile & Lavender Artisanal Tea

While making a cup of tea may sound like a small task, rituals like these can crescendo into a major lifestyle change. Taking the time to break for tea each day provides a few moments to reflect and get grounded. On days when we need to soothe and calm our mind, body and spirit, we like to enjoy our Chamomile with Lavender tea. This blend works to calm the nervous system and to support digestion.* We believe in the power of these plants, and so did many folks who came before us. Chamomile and lavender have been used for thousands of years, because they work.

Chamomile was originally documented as a medicinal herb by Egyptians in the Ebers Medical Papyrus in 1550 B.C. They dedicated the power of chamomile to the sun and worshiped it above all other herbs. They offered it to their gods and used it as one of the main ingredients in their embalming oil for the mummification process. People in other cultures enjoyed chamomile while still living. Spaniards called the plant “manzanilla” which means “little apple,” and they infused the flowers into sherry. Others used its powers to ease tension and support digestion.

One of the most trusted plants in herbalism today, chamomile has been traditionally used to promote everything from calm and relaxation to healthy digestion. Its soft, buttery and calming qualities are soothing to the body and mind, which helps calm butterflies in the stomach, occasional gas and bloating and for relieving the discomfort of nausea associated with pregnancy.

Lavender also has a rich history of traditional use. These fragrant purple blooms originally come from the Mediterranean region and have been used for thousands of years by the ancient Greeks, Romans, Arabs and Egyptians. Coincidently, it also was used by Egyptians to embalm the deceased. In the middle ages it was made into crosses and hung over doorways to ward off evil spirits, and it was one of the main ingredients in the Four Thieves Vinegar, a popular herbal preparation during the time of the plague. These days you can often see lavender used in aromatherapy to promote relaxation.

These two herbal allies are widely known but aren’t always acknowledged for their gentle (yet powerful) herbal medicine. Each of these plants reminds us to relax now and not to wait to take care of our needs later. Our Chamomile with Lavender tea is fragrantly floral and bittersweet.
