Seasonal Sampler

This selection of seasonal infusions is a great way to sample some Homegrown tisanes and find balance with the season. Dominated by the airy energy of Vata, autumn tends to be a time of great change and beginnings, and preparation for the winter to come. A focus on ironing out the future plans and schedules of this very busy time of year lends to feelings of anxiety and a hectic energy in our lives. What better way to offset the chaos than to stop and smell the roses! Homegrown's fall steeps are crafted with an emphasis on grounding, restorative and centering herbs, intended to help invigorate and nourish the abundance of creative energy flowing this time of year, and to help keep you focused on the blessing of the present moment. Take a minute (or 20) to sink in and find your balance with a delicious and healing cup -  then see where the wind might take you...
