Stress & Anxiety: Rooibos and Camomile to the Rescue

Stress and anxiety rate amongst the top issues of our day, leading to sleeplessness and various other chronic illnesses if experienced over a prolonged period of time. Many are familiar with intermittent disturbed sleep, body aches, anxiety and irritability, but these lead to increased stress when they become chronic.

Common stress symptoms:

Irritability and difficulty in relationships.
Anxiety, tension, sadness.
Loss of interest in things you once enjoyed.
Disturbed sleep.
Fatigue.
Body aches and pains, including headaches.
Cognitive issues.

Most of us simply live with these symptoms – to our detriment. The Carmién solution is as simple as a cup (or 6) of rooibos tea!

Traditional medicine has touted the effective use of camomile for centuries as a calming herb, and ideal as a bedtime herbal infusion. Studies have shown that a cup of camomile tea taken about 45 minutes before bed will induce sleepiness and give the chemical compounds present in camomile enough time to activate sedation. Rooibos itself has been proved to be naturally calming which makes our rooibos camomile blends highly popular. Rooibos has a soothing effect on the nervous system and may also help relieve irritability, headaches, disturbed sleeping patterns, insomnia, nervous tension, mild depression or hypertension.

Carmién offers a wide range of rooibos camomile blends to suit every taste from adults to kiddies: Relax, Orange Camomile with lavender, Sleepy time for kids.
