CALM

Evening Calm & Wind-Down Support

For those midlife evenings when the day is over, but you still don't feel switched off.

You've finished work. You've made dinner. You've finally sat down.

But somehow your mind is still running through conversations, tomorrow's list and the dozen things you didn't quite get done today.

Your body might be on the sofa, but you still feel very much “on.”

CALM was created for that part of the evening.

A soft, naturally caffeine-free loose-leaf infusion combining linden, lemon balm and chamomile with delicate rose, lemon verbena, orange peel and just a touch of lavender.

It's gentle, floral and citrusy — a blend designed to become the cup that marks the transition between the busy part of your day and the quieter part of your evening.

Soft • Floral • Citrusy • Delicate

Does this sound familiar?

CALM may be for you if you:

• find it difficult to shift out of work mode at the end of the day;
• finally sit down but still feel like you're mentally going through your to-do list;
• tend to carry the busyness of the day straight into your evening;
• want an evening ritual that doesn't involve another glass of wine or scrolling on your phone;
• enjoy softer, floral herbal teas and want something specifically for that end-of-day moment.

CALM gives you a simple ritual for creating a little separation between your day and your evening.

The kettle goes on.
The day starts coming off.

Why I created CALM

Women often talk to me about sleep, but I've become just as interested in what happens in the hours before they actually get into bed.

Because sometimes the problem isn't that you're ready for bed and can't sleep.

Sometimes you're simply still going at 9pm.

Work. Family. Messages. Laundry. Tomorrow's plans. One more thing that needs doing.

I wanted CALM to have a very specific place in the Herbedies collection:

the cup you make when you're ready for the day to start winding down.

Linden and lemon balm form the heart of the blend, chamomile brings its familiar soft floral character, while rose petals and lavender add delicate florals. Lemon verbena and orange peel keep the finished cup fresh rather than overly perfumed.

It's deliberately different from NIGHT.

CALM is for the evening wind-down. NIGHT is the blend you reach for closer to bedtime.

Inside your cup

Linden
The largest part of the blend, with a delicate, softly floral character that creates the base of CALM.

Lemon balm
Adds a fresh, gently lemony note and balances the softer florals.

Chamomile
Brings its familiar mellow, slightly sweet and floral character.

Rose petals
Add a delicate floral layer without making the blend overly perfumed.

Lemon verbena
Brightens the cup with clean citrus notes.

Orange peel
Adds a gentle citrus sweetness and rounds out the blend.

Lavender
Used in a small amount to add its distinctive aromatic floral note without overpowering the other herbs.

What does CALM taste like?

CALM is soft, floral and gently citrusy.

Linden and chamomile create the mellow base, while lemon balm and lemon verbena bring freshness. Rose and lavender sit more delicately in the background, with orange peel rounding everything off.

It's intentionally softer than CLEAR or RISE.

If you like chamomile but want something more layered, fresh and botanical, this is the blend I'd choose for the evening.

When to drink it

CALM was created for the late afternoon and evening — particularly that transition between finishing the day's responsibilities and beginning your evening.

Make a cup when you close your laptop. Have it after dinner. Or use brewing CALM as a small signal that you're done with the busy part of your day.

Best enjoyed in the late afternoon or evening.

Naturally caffeine-free, so it fits easily into an evening routine.
