LULLABY

*******FUNCTIONAL TEA: SLEEP-AID******* INGREDIENTS: Lemongrass, Peppermint, Camomile, Rosehip, Spearmint, Valerian Root, Hibiscus, Cornflower petals CAFFEINE CONTENT: None - Caffeine Free Herb and Fruit ANTIOXIDANT CONTENT: Low INFORMATION: Perhaps the most famous lullaby of all time is "Wiegenlied: Guten Abend, gute Nacht", otherwise known as "Lullaby and Goodnight", published by German composer Johannes Brahms in 1868. It goes: Lullaby and goodnight, with roses bedight With lilies o'er spread is baby's wee bed Lay thee down now and rest, may thy slumber be blessed Lay thee down now and rest, may thy slumber be blessed The song works wonders on children. Unfortunately, as we age, lullabies tend to lose their efficacy. (Read: no one will sing them to us!) So, what to do when the minutes stretch to hours, as you lie staring at the ceiling? We have just the solution - a delectable tisane designed to "bless thy slumber" sip after sip. Naturally caffeine-free, Lullaby blends a number of sleepy-time herbs to soothe the spirit and calm the mind. To ensure you sleep even more soundly, we've sourced each of these from growers known for their environmental sensitivity, letting you rest assured the environment wasn't harmed to facilitate your slumber. Don't forget to turn the lights out. More about our key ingredients: Valerian Root: Believed to elevate gamma-aminobutyric acid in the brain and induce sleep.
