Herbal Tea Rituals for Calm Evenings

A tea ritual is a tiny ceremony of care. Choose chamomile, lemon balm, or peppermint. Boil water and let it cool a moment; pour over leaves and watch them unfurl. Inhale the aroma; hold the mug and feel the warmth in your hands. Take a slow sip; breathe between sips. Dim lights; let your eyes rest. Reflect on one good thing from today and release one worry to tomorrow’s list. Add honey or lemon if desired. Sit near a plant or an open window to borrow a little nature. Keep conversation gentle or enjoy the quiet. Rinse the cup with attention. Prepare your space for sleep fold a blanket, set your book aside. Whisper a kind phrase to yourself and welcome the dark with trust. This is how evenings become soft landings.
