Good morning, tea friends. Today’s Tea Tuesday blend is all about gently moving from spring into summer. Not rushing. Not forcing a brand-new routine. Not pretending we suddenly have to have our whole summer figured out. Just easing into the next season with a little more intention, refreshment, and support. This week’s blend is: 𝑺𝒖𝒎𝒎𝒆𝒓 𝑻𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒔𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑻𝒆𝒂 𝑩𝒍𝒆𝒏𝒅 A bright, cooling herbal tea for seasonal reset, gentle energy, and summer rhythms. 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝗱𝗲𝘀 𝑯𝒊𝒃𝒊𝒔𝒄𝒖𝒔— bright, tart, cooling, and traditionally used to support the body during warm weather 𝑳𝒆𝒎𝒐𝒏 𝒃𝒂𝒍𝒎 — calming, uplifting, and traditionally used to support the nervous system and emotional balance 𝑷𝒆𝒑𝒑𝒆𝒓𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒕 — refreshing, cooling, and traditionally used to support digestion and mental clarity 𝑹𝒐𝒔𝒆𝒉𝒊𝒑𝒔 — tangy, nourishing, and rich in natural plant compounds that support everyday wellness 𝑮𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒆𝒓 — warming, comforting, and traditionally used to support digestion and circulation I love this blend because it has a beautiful balance. The hibiscus and peppermint bring that cool, refreshing summer feeling. The lemon balm adds calm and softness. The rosehips bring brightness and nourishment. And the ginger adds just a little warmth so the blend does not feel too cold or flat. It is lovely warm, but honestly, this one is made for iced tea season. Simple blend idea - 1 part hibiscus - 1 part lemon balm - ½ part peppermint - ½ part rosehips - ¼ part ginger How to make it Add 1–2 teaspoons of the blend to a cup. Pour hot water over the herbs. Cover and steep for 8–10 minutes. Strain and enjoy warm, or let it cool and pour over ice. For iced tea, you can also make a larger batch and keep it in the fridge. 𝗧𝗲𝗮 𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Before you sip, ask yourself 𝒲𝒽𝒶𝓉 𝒶𝓂 ℐ 𝓇ℯ𝒶𝒹𝓎 𝓉ℴ 𝓇ℯ𝒻𝓇ℯ𝓈𝒽 𝒶𝓈 ℐ 𝓂ℴ𝓋ℯ 𝒾𝓃𝓉ℴ 𝓈𝓊𝓂𝓂ℯ𝓇? Maybe it’s your morning rhythm. Maybe it’s your self-care. Maybe it’s your meals. Maybe it’s your mindset. Maybe it’s simply giving yourself permission to slow down and enjoy the season. This week, we’re focusing on celebration and transition — honoring what we’ve made it through and gently preparing for what’s next.

Tea & Talk each week is to discuss the weekly tea blend, the journal pages and if you want to chat about tea. Last one was held on Saturday at 2pm CST. Because summer is coming I can move that date/time to be more suitable for the whole group (until August then it will be back to Saturday at 2 or maybe in morning, who knows) So please, vote on what its the best day/time and if none of the choices works best for you, tell me in the comments.

Sweet friends, I wanted to give you a gentle reminder that 𝒥ℴ𝓊𝓇𝓃𝒶𝓁 & 𝒥ℴ𝓎 is happening tomorrow night. 𝗪𝗲𝗱𝗻𝗲𝘀𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗮𝘁 𝟳:𝟬𝟬 𝗣𝗠 𝗖𝗦𝗧 This week’s theme is: 𝙍𝙚𝙘𝙡𝙖𝙞𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙈𝙮 𝙀𝙣𝙚𝙧𝙜𝙮 Since we’ve been talking about energy, rhythm, and gentle support this week, this will be a soft 30-minute guided journal night to help us pause and check in with what our energy actually needs. Not more pressure. Not more pushing. Not another giant to-do list. Just a little space to reflect. We’ll use this time to ask ourselves: 🌿 What has been draining my energy lately? 💜 What has been restoring me? 🫖 What kind of energy do I need more of? 📖 What boundary could help protect my energy? ✨ What small step could help me feel more supported this week? You can bring the 𝗘𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗝𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗣𝗮𝗴𝗲, your own notebook, or just a piece of paper. And of course, bring your tea, water, coffee, or whatever feels cozy. This is a no-pressure space. You do not have to share unless you want to. You can come exactly as you are — tired, scattered, peaceful, quiet, emotional, motivated, or somewhere in between. The goal is not to journal perfectly. The goal is to pause, breathe, listen, and give yourself a little bit of care in the middle of the week. Your turn: 𝒜𝓇ℯ 𝓎ℴ𝓊 𝓅𝓁𝒶𝓃𝓃𝒾𝓃ℊ 𝓉ℴ 𝒿ℴ𝒾𝓃 𝓊𝓈 𝓁𝒾𝓋ℯ 𝓉ℴ𝓂ℴ𝓇𝓇ℴ𝓌 𝓃𝒾ℊ𝒽𝓉, ℴ𝓇 𝓌ℴ𝓊𝓁𝒹 𝓎ℴ𝓊 𝓁𝒾𝓀ℯ 𝓉ℴ 𝒸𝒶𝓉𝒸𝒽 𝓉𝒽ℯ 𝓇ℯ𝓅𝓁𝒶𝓎? Comment JOY if you’re joining live. Comment REPLAY if you want to watch later. Small steps lead to big transformations. 𝓐𝓹𝓻𝓲𝓵 𝓙𝓸𝔂 💜🌹 Stay positive and kind.

We talk a lot about what we should do for our wellness. But what if we paused and asked: 𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙙𝙤𝙚𝙨 𝙢𝙮 𝙗𝙤𝙙𝙮 𝙖𝙘𝙩𝙪𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 𝙣𝙚𝙚𝙙 𝙧𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙣𝙤𝙬? Your body is wise. It's always communicating. Sometimes it's asking for rest. Sometimes it's asking for movement. Sometimes it's asking for nourishment, connection, or simply to be heard. This week, I want you to get quiet for just a moment and listen. 𝗝𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗽𝘁 Take 2 minutes and write about this: "𝙏𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙬𝙚𝙚𝙠, 𝙢𝙮 𝙗𝙤𝙙𝙮 𝙞𝙨 𝙖𝙨𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙛𝙤𝙧..." Don't overthink it. Don't make it complicated. Just listen and write what comes. 𝗠𝗮𝘆𝗯𝗲 𝗶𝘁'𝘀: "My body is asking for more water and less caffeine." "My body is asking for a 10-minute walk in the sunshine." "My body is asking for permission to rest without guilt." "My body is asking for a warm cup of tea and five minutes of quiet." Whatever it is, that's your answer. That's your wellness focus for this week. Share one thing your body is asking for this week. (You don't have to share the whole journal entry—just one sentence is perfect.) Let's create a space where we're all listening to our bodies together. Your body's wisdom matters. Your needs matter. And honoring them—even in small ways—is an act of profound self-love. You've got this, friend. 💚
