Relaxation
With a gentle aroma, chrysanthemum tea is a prominent herbal tea with soothing properties. Drinking chrysanthemum tea helps the mind and body gradually shift to a relaxed state, bringing a feeling of lightness and comfort. This is a simple but effective way to prepare for a deeper sleep.
Reduce anxiety
The apigenin in chrysanthemum tea has the effect of helping to reduce anxiety and mental stress. When feelings of anxiety or lingering thoughts are soothed, sleep quality can also be improved, helping some people fall asleep and sleep deeper.
Improve sleep quality
Drinking a cup of warm chrysanthemum tea not only brings a comfortable feeling but also contributes to improving sleep quality. Sleep quality reflects the level of satisfaction with the overall sleep experience, including the ability to fall asleep faster, the number of times you wake up at night, and the feeling of alertness and refreshment when waking up in the morning.
Soak 2-3 teaspoons (or 4 grams) of dried chrysanthemum in 240ml of water at a temperature of about 93°C for 5-7 minutes. Avoid boiling the flowers directly to retain the essential oil and flavor of the chrysanthemum.
Drink chrysanthemum tea for 30 - 60 minutes before going to bed to help the body relax and prepare for sleep. Taking a sip of tea slowly in a quiet, relaxed space will enhance the soothing effect of tea.
