Organic Merchant Wellness Tea Blends
Our range of wellness teas are naturopathically formulated to support health and wellness on a daily basis. Their benefits range from physical to mental wellbeing.
These are herbal tisanes that focus on specific therapeutic benefits and can be consumed any time or at specific times of the day depending on your desired result.
Wellness teas are designed to promote optimal health even when you are not sick as they support the body to prevent illness. This speaks to Chalimah’s clinical practice as a Naturopath and the belief that the body has the capacity to heal itself. Naturopaths use herbal medicine and teas as it is a natural form of treatment.
Herbs have been consumed through tea for thousands of years. They work in a beautiful way because they have more than one action which often works in harmony to benefit the body on different levels.
Some of those actions include:
- Adaptogen
- Calmative
- Carmative
- Nervine
Wellness teas and herbs can support many health complaints including:
- stress and anxiety
- low mood
- low energy
- headaches
- sleep issues and insomnia
- hormonal issues
- high cholesterol and cardiovascular issues
- liver and kidney health and detoxification
Herbal teas are not a cure-all and certainly can’t replace professional medical advice but they can help when used correctly and regularly.
Different ingredients can do different things to the body in surprisingly strong ways. Some can even pose a health risk, especially during pregnancy, so doing a little research and treating herbal teas like you would any medication is a great place to begin
