Drinking a cup of lavender tea before bedtime is an effective way to wind down, improve your mood, and support restful sleep. Here’s how to make this soothing tea and why it’s so beneficial.
Why Lavender Tea for Depression, Stress, and Insomnia?
Lavender has been used for centuries as a natural remedy for its calming and mood-enhancing properties. It’s rich in compounds that can reduce stress and anxiety, relieve mild symptoms of depression, and aid sleep. Lavender’s pleasant aroma and gentle taste make it the perfect bedtime tea.
How to Make Lavender Tea
Ingredients:
1-2 teaspoons of dried lavender buds (make sure they are food-grade)
1 cup of hot water
Optional: honey or lemon for added flavor
Instructions:
Boil the Water
Start by boiling 1 cup of water.
Steep the Lavender
Place the dried lavender buds in a tea infuser or directly in a cup. Pour the hot water over the lavender and let it steep for 5-10 minutes. The longer it steeps, the stronger the flavor and aroma.
Strain and Serve
If you used loose lavender, strain the tea to remove the buds. Add honey or a slice of lemon if desired, and enjoy your tea warm.
