For quite a long time, tea has been viewed as a “comforting hug” to those bogged down by worries and stress. It has become the norm to feel anxious, tense, and nervous.

There are a lot of techniques to help ease these feelings of anxiousness such as yoga, meditation, and of course, TEA!
Teas for anxiety and stress
Teas for anxiety and stress can introduce a small moment of zen into your hectic schedule. With a wide variety of teas available such as green tea, chamomile tea, and other soothing flavors, you can literally sip your way to relaxation and calmness.
Let’s take a quick look at some of these varieties of teas for anxiety and stress and soothe our nerves -
1. Peppermint Tea
In this list of teas for stress and anxiety, this aromatic variety works well to relieve and soothe you. Peppermint contains menthol which acts as a natural muscle relaxant.

Both fresh and dry peppermint leaves can be used to make this tea. Add the leaves to boiling water and let it steep for 3-4 minutes. Let it cool down before straining and drinking.
2. Chamomile Tea
Excessive stress and anxiety might make it difficult to sleep. While chamomile tea helps calm you down, it can also be used to treat insomnia.
