It may seem simple, but my favorite tea will always be chamomile tea, in all its forms, since it is a subtle experience on the palate and at the same time gives a feeling of calm and relaxation when drinking it.
When I lived with my mother, she did it when she had a health commitment, when she was stressed by a lot of work or simply on any cold and rainy night, she said it was very good for sleeping, but I never took it despite her insistence and to tell me wonders about this tea.
Today, when I have been out of my country (Venezuela) for more than 5 years and therefore far from my family, I started taking it remembering everything my mother mentioned about this tea, and it has really helped me a lot in those days. where work overwhelms me and I have a lot of stress.
On winter days, when the cold does its thing, that tea comforts me and helps me relax a lot, really as my mother narrated it, that's why there is a very true saying in Venezuela that says "the devil knows more for old than the devil” hahaha.
A few months ago I had an accident while skating, I tripped over a stone, fell and fractured the wrist of my left hand, it was quite difficult for me to face this whole situation alone, without the support of my mother or my sister, although I counted always with a good friend who accompanied me at all times.
They took me to the nearest hospital from where I fell, after applying first aid, they performed different exams, X-rays and MRIs to reach a diagnosis. They referred me to an Occupational Therapist, and after undergoing several therapies and not seeing any improvement, the doctors decided to operate on me.
When I came home grieving and in a lot of pain, I would remember my Mother (who I missed so much) and I would prepare my chamomile tea, I would drink it and immediately feel like the blessing of my mother who is so far away, and really It lent me a lot to those moments of sadness and desolation.
Now I never run out of boxes of tea in my cupboard, but my favorite will always be this (chamomile) and every time I drink it I feel that something tells me: "everything will be fine" while my whole body relaxes for a long time. the stress of being faced with any not so good situation experienced during the day.
I will always prefer to drink it at night, when everything is calm and I can take time for myself and my delicious tea, while accompanying it with a cookie or toast.
So far my experience with tea. Thank you for your time.
I hope to be here again with all of you.
