As the days get shorter and we start to prepare for the colder months, it can be nice to add a soothing cup of tea to your nightly routine, whether that be after a warm bath, just before bed, or even as you curl up on the sofa and enjoy a couple of episodes of your favourite TV show. 

We’ve got a huge selection of some of the best teas for relaxation as well as calming infusions and teas for improving your sleep. Let’s look at some of our favourite blends for you to try as we move into Autumn.

Chamomile Tea

Arguably one of the most well known teas for improving your sleeping habits or reducing anxiety, Chamomile tea is the first tea on our list. 

Some of our favourite chamomile tea benefits are: 

●     Calming feelings of anxiety.

●     Improving the amount and quality of your sleep.

●     Soothes any digestive problems.

●     Enhances levels of antioxidants.

●     Promotes healthy skin.

●     Reduces overall levels of inflammation. 

You see there are so many reasons to adore Chamomile tea and it is truly the original bedtime tea. Why not give it a go as the days get shorter and see how it changes your sleeping habits?

Goodnight Sleeping Tea

Next up we have another herbal bedtime tea designed to help you relax and unwind as you drift off into a comfortable slumber. Our Goodnight Sleeping tea is another popular choice for relaxation herbal teas here at Tea Life™.

Lavender Tea

When we think of relaxation we often picture scents like lavender but not many people know that you can enjoy lavender in a tea. Our Lavender tea is a delicious, light, and delicate flavour that will have even the most determined insomniacs resting peacefully during the night. 

Improving your sleeping habits is not the only benefit of lavender though. Here are a few other reasons for you to enjoy sipping on a cup of lavender tea this Autumn: 

●     Relieves feelings of stress.

●     Improves sleep.

●     Helps you to fall asleep more quickly.

●     Can improve the symptoms of a headache. 

A few of our wonderful customers have even suggested mixing our lavender tea with chamomile or blue peaflower tea to create their own blend of sleep-friendly tea.

Valerian Tea

Another incredibly popular herbal tea to help promote relaxation is Valerian tea. Cultures throughout Europe and Asia have used the incredible benefits of valerian in their medicinal practices for many centuries and it’s easy to see why. 

It is important to have a quick chat with your healthcare provider about consuming valerian tea if you are currently taking any prescription medication or pregnant as it can be an incredibly powerful herbal blend.

Passionflower Tea

If you’re looking for an all-natural sleep aid then look no further than Passionflower tea! Passionflower is considered to be a natural sedative so it’s perfect to use as a sleepy time tea and it tastes great too! 

Some more of the incredible benefits of drinking passionflower tea include:
