Femme Organics Chamomile Tea Flowers (3 Pack)

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 tea.

This tea contains whole Chamomile flowers. It 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 has been used for thousands of years, because it works.

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.

Instructions to prepare the chamomile tea
To enjoy this herbal chamomile tea at its best, use 1 heaping teaspoon of chamomile flowers per 8 ounces of water. Pour the hot water onto the tea, cover it and let steep for 5-7 minutes. Strain the flowers from the water to avoid your infusion turning bitter.
