wired at night when you just want to sleep? You’re not alone. Millions struggle with falling or staying asleep—whether it’s due to stress, screen time, or an overactive mind. Instead of reaching for sleep pills, many are turning to an ancient, gentler solution: herbal tea for sleep.
At Astiry, we believe a calming bedtime ritual is one of the most powerful ways to support long-term wellness. Our Harmony Zest blend features herbs like passionflower, tulsi, and brahmi—time-tested ingredients that naturally support restful sleep and emotional balance.
Why Herbal Tea Can Help You Sleep
Unlike caffeine-free "bedtime" teas that rely mostly on chamomile, functional herbal teas go deeper—supporting the nervous system, reducing cortisol, and gently preparing the body for sleep.
The best teas for sleep are:
-
Caffeine-free
-
Rich in calming compounds like apigenin, linalool, and GABA precursors
-
Adaptogenic or nervine in nature (they soothe and regulate the nervous system)
The Best Herbs for Sleep in Tea Form
Passionflower
A natural nervine that calms brain activity and helps reduce anxiety. Studies show it improves sleep latency and quality—without the drowsiness of melatonin.
Tulsi (Holy Basil)
An adaptogen that regulates stress hormones like cortisol. Tulsi promotes a sense of calm and helps the body return to a parasympathetic (“rest and digest”) state.
Brahmi
Though often praised for cognitive benefits, brahmi also reduces restlessness, especially when your mind won’t shut off before bed.
Lemongrass & Spearmint
These refreshing herbs are known to reduce tension, relax muscles, and soothe digestion - key factors in nighttime comfort.
How and When to Drink Sleep-Supporting Tea
-
Drink 30–60 minutes before bedtime
-
Steep for at least 7–8 minutes to fully extract the calming compounds
-
Use as part of a full sleep ritual: dim lights, no screens, light reading or journaling
