When you drink herbal tea you are connecting with nature. You are not only just drinking a liquid you are drinking in the nutrients and the spirit of the plant.
When sitting with tea intentionally and creating a clear centred space, each sip becomes an opportunity commune with nature and allow it to transition you from the external world to our inner-self and a peaceful place in which to be for a while. *
