Sleep Awareness Week (8th–14th March) is a welcome reminder to take a closer look at how we rest. As evenings fill with unfinished to-do lists and screen time stretches longer than intended, winding down can easily slip down the priority list.
Rather than overhauling your routine, start simply. Put the kettle on. Let the day pause for a moment.
Chamomile tea has long been a favourite for sleep and relaxation. Delicate, floral and naturally soothing, it’s the kind of ingredient that feels made for the last cup of the day. Naturally caffeine-free, chamomile tea is often chosen to support relaxation and help create a calming nighttime routine.
There’s a reason chamomile remains a staple in bedtime rituals. Its soft golden colour and gentle flavour feel light and comforting, making it an easy choice when you want something subtle before bed.
Our Tea Master, Sampath, explains:
“Chamomile is one of the most delicate flowers we work with. It doesn’t shout. It brings a quiet softness to a blend, which is exactly what you want at the end of the day.”
At English Tea Shop, chamomile sits at the heart of some of our most-loved blends. Each one is crafted using 100% organic ingredients, grown by small-scale farming communities committed to sustainable agriculture . From farm to cup, every infusion reflects our belief in Love & Prosperity through Community.
If you’re marking Sleep Awareness Week with a little more intention this year, here are three chamomile blends to explore.
Sleepy Me
This aromatic blend brings together classic chamomile with lavender and carefully selected botanicals in a softly floral infusion designed with bedtime in mind.
Comfort Me
