Herbalism

Brewing a nervine tea for restless evenings

A simple three-herb blend and the ritual of steeping it slowly, timed by nothing but the kettle.

Three herbs, a covered pot, and five unhurried minutes.

The blend

Chamomile for softness, lemon balm for lift, a little lavender for quiet. Cover while it steeps so the calming oils stay in the cup.
