Very well known for its calming effects when you've had one of those stress full blue Monday's. We have all at some time been tempted into purchasing a box of "chamomile tea" by the local grocers or drug store at some point in our lives.. Let's face it, stress relief in the form of a cuppa.. what better solution to our stress!!
I feel that this herb is honestly not promoted enough for all the "hidden" healing potential it contains that simply goes un-mentioned to the every day tea-lover. If you already enjoy a cuppa a day of this wonderful herb, GOOD going! You are unconsciously healing your body without even knowing it ;o)
