Make Chamomile Tea a Quiet Evening Pause
If chamomile suits you, enjoy a small cup for its taste and the pause it creates, without treating it as a sleep remedy.
The kettle clicks off, and for once there's nothing else to do while the tea steeps. If you enjoy chamomile, that small interval can become a pleasant part of the evening.
Prepare the tea according to the packet and let it cool to a comfortable drinking temperature. Choose a small cup if a large drink close to bed tends to interrupt your night. Sit somewhere you can set it down safely.
Enjoy the cup without a promise
Notice the aroma and take your time with the first sip. Put the phone aside if you'd like a quieter break. When you've had enough, rinse the cup and carry on with the evening.
Chamomile hasn't been established as a treatment for insomnia. It can also cause allergic reactions and interact with some medicines. If you're pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication, or unsure whether it's suitable, check with a pharmacist or clinician. Another familiar, suitable caffeine-free drink can serve the same purpose.
You don't need the tea to do something extraordinary. It can be enough that you like it and that making it gives you a few unhurried minutes before bed.
