Kid’s Grounding Tea

Chamomile, Lemon Balm, Peppermint

This is a classic herbal blend for kids who have an excess of energy and need support for calming down and relaxing in their bodies. This tea is gentle enough to be taken any time of day but is especially effective at bringing peace and calm at bedtime and promoting restful sleep. Chamomile, Lemon balm, and Peppermint help to shift the nervous system into the parasympathetic state, also known as “rest and digest.” This state is where the body can properly receive food, assimilate nutrients, and perform critical biological processes that happen during sleep, making this tea also great as a pre-digestive tea before dinner. These herbs truly work wonders to take the edge off of an overly stimulated nervous system and allow the little ones to feel rooted and grounded in their bodies. To make an infusion, pour 1 cup of almost boiling water over 1-2 tablespoons of herbs and let steep for 10 minutes with a covered lid. Mason jars work great for this. Strain, sweeten with a little bit of honey, and enjoy!
