self-care used to mean slowing down. now it looks more like a 12-step skincare routine, a gratitude journal and a candle that costs more than your weekly grocery shop. we’re here to bring it back to basics with feel good brews and simple rituals. here’s how to turn your daily cuppa into a self-care moment - no crystal-infused bath salts required.

a morning reset before the madness

before the world starts shouting at you and you get sucked into answering the calls, emails and notifications, take five with a bold, energising brew. go for something citrusy or minty to wake up your senses and enjoy a moment of pause - no breathwork app required.

the mid-afternoon mood boost

instead of reaching for your third coffee or an energy drink, try a fruity loose-leaf pick-me-up. not only will it give your brain a little ‘you’ve got this’ reminder but, you won’t experience any crashes or caffeine shakes.

an evening me-time ritual

face masks and bubble baths are cute but let’s be real, there isn’t always the time to indulge in this level of self-care. sipping a calming tea in peace? now that’s doable. go for chamomile and see how it helps you wind down after a long, busy day. you’re welcome.

weekend slow sips

saturday mornings hit different when there’s no alarm, your fave playlist is on and you don’t have to be anywhere. what will make it even better is you brew up a cosy, feel good blend. enjoy the slowness, the rest and the flavour.

the joy is in the ritual

tea slows you down in the best way. from boiling the water to choosing your blend and waiting for it to steep - the whole process is intentional. this is your reminder that it’s way more satisfying and good for your mind to brew than it is to scroll.
