Witch of Walkerville Positivi-Tea Mood Tea

The name says it all! When you are feeling under the weather, or need a bit of a mood pick me up, a cup of this tea is exactly what you need to add some sunshine to your day.

Positivi-tea is a soothing blend of clarifying herbs and adaptogens to help you fight back against the blues. Your mood can be negatively affected by a broad variety of factors, including poor sleep, an unhealthy diet, external stressors, lack of sunlight exposure, and loss of intimate connections. One or more of these could be causing a loss of joy in life and lowering your mood. Although something so complex cannot be solved by drinking a single cup of tea, every small step (or in this case sip) can make a difference.

This tea is a combination of fruit, herbs, and flowers that have been used in traditional medicine and Ayurvedic practices to decrease anxiety, ease digestion, improve sleep quality, enhance cognitive function, and improve overall wellness. We begin with a layer of apples for their antioxidant and immune boosting properties because a healthy body is important for a healthy mind. Next, there is added Ashwagandha, Tulsi, and St. John's Wort, which are part of a class of plants called adaptogens. These potent adaptogens are meant to help your body respond to stress.

Research on ashwagandha continues to evolve as scientists study its efficacy in treating anxiety. Experimental studies are researching how Tulsi can improve general stress levels and aid with symptoms of forgetfulness.

To top things off, both Lemon Balm and St. John's Wort have been nicknamed 'sunshine herbs' for their purported mood boosting qualities, with most research focusing on their impact on individuals with seasonal affective disorder.

The inclusion of Butterfly Blue Pea Flower not only turns the cup a beautiful teal color but adds a dose of antioxidants to aid with relaxation. This caffeine-free tea is a perfect blend of herbs with antioxidant, antibacterial, antiviral, anxiolytic, and antidepressant properties.

This blend is an attempt at brewing sunshine in a cup - delicate and light flavors that offer gentle herbal warmth and soft citrus comfort. For those feeling a little down or stuck indoors and unable to enjoy the sun's rays, just sip on Blue Sunshine and let it put a smile on your face. The sweet herbaceous flavor and soft fruit notes are bound to improve your mood.
